Now she is living like a flueen and having a ball.

Three months ago, my gentleman friend dropped me for a jvoman who would go all the way. And after I went steady with him for eight years! To me, adultery is adultery whether you're 16 or 70.

I DEAR ABBY: My husband travels constantly by auto'mo- joile. He is self-employed. Recently he took a female employ- along on one of his trips. He asked rny permission first, I agreed. The only stipulation I made was that if she became a threat to our marriage he would let her go.

(We've been married over 25 years and have always had a "good, solid relationship.) Within a few weeks I learned they have been sharing a room. Both were indignant and insulted when I ob- jected. My husband said it was strictly a business arrange- and he- was only cutting expenses. They both insist 'this is a common practice with traveling men. Maybe I'm 'behind the limes, but I never heard of this before.
