PUCKER KNITS This season's choice for clin Dear Ann Landers: There are homes for old folks, homes for the mentally ill, homes for destitute children, and even homes for unwanted animals. But where do unwanted wives go? We must live under the same roof with husbands who don't want us. Our children have made it plain that they have no intention of risking their marriages by having a mother-in-law around. So we live with men we don't love or respect while they do their own thing, which means drink too much, have women on the side and come home whenever they feel like it. Being less than saints, our blood pressure 'goes up and our tempers blow.

We are labeled shrews, nags and hopelessly neurotic. People feel sorry for our husbands not us. If your advice is "leave," then tell us where we could go. We are too old to work and we have no special skills. We aren't sufficiently attractive or sexy to interest another man and we know it.

We are just ordinary, tired, bitter women worn out and beat down. Any suggestions, Ann? A Loser Dear Friend: It's obvious that you aren't getting much out of life but what are you giving? You need to become involved in something outside of your own misery. A woman doesn't have to be sexy or good looking to do volunteer work with the handicapped, the aged or the blind. The list of things you might do is endless. I'm suggesting that you give of yourself to someone who is less fortunate it's the best medicine for people who are sick of themselves.

Get going and good luck to you. Dear Ann Landers: I just came from the beauty shop where I spent $18 for $14 worth of work. Will you please tell me why American women (me included) allow themselves to be browbeaten and horns woggled into tipping people who are there to perform a service for the shop?

Isabella Taves "YOU ARE GOING to have to see your ex-husband once in a while and the children will probably be present. It isn't really all that bad if you remember it took two to tango and both of you were responsible for the divorce and had to share in the misery it caused. Now you've got that straight, treat your ex-husband as a friend a good friend.

"Fathers and mothers are something children need, and badly. Sometimes adults will remember their own childhood and recognize this, but during the bad time after a divorce they forget their own childhood reactions. So, to remind you of what your children need, look back over the years and remember the neat birthday party where your father dressed up like a clown and the kids just loved him and you were sooo glad he was your dad. Or remember the time when you came in wet and cold from school and your mother had a nice warm cup of chocolate with a marshmallow on the top tmarshmallows were for special occasions, weren't they?) and you felt so loved and glad to FREE Open Mon.

"THEN ASK YOURSELF: do you want to deprive your child or children of happiness (and indirectly harm yourself) by being a bitter, unyielding, unlearning and unreaching parent? Be NICE, treat your ex-husband- 'that person', I've heard too many divorcees call him with respect. You will gain more by this than you ever dreamed of. "Now that you have conquered this step, take a look at your FUTURE. Are you going to sit home and feel sorry for yourself? DON'T! Wallflowers are for walls and not for lives.

You never know you might meet the friend of a friend and end up spending the rest of your life with him. Having gained, not lost, from one bad experience, you may be ready for a better relation. "My ex-husband 'that other person' is my good friend and my son respects, and loves me the more because I have never tried to keep his father away from him. I haven't yet met that 'friend of a friend' or the equivalent, but I'm working at it. "INCIDENTALLY, my father never played a clown but he did a lot of other things which are very important to me.

ANN LANDERS The prices these days are bad enough, but that tipping racket burns me to a cinder. Why don't you wage a campaign to put an end to tipping in beauty shops? Tell the women to express their resentment by staying away from the shops for a month. It's not hard to twist your own hair at home if you have to and when they start back to the shop no tipping. Mrs.

American Chump Dear Most beauty operators, like most waitresses, depend on tips to live on. Unfair? Maybe, but that's the system and I see no hope of changing it in the near future. I know of few occupations where talent (or the lack of it) can make such a big difference. If YOU want to stay home and twist your hair for a month, be my guest, but my Leon makes a concerted effort to do his best for me, and I show my appreciation by leaving a gratuity.

I only hope I can be always there for my son." The lady did not sign her name, but I thank her for talking frankly and bravely about what is a problem for many divorcees. Even when a marriage has a residue of bitterness which is sometimes inevitable it is far better to try to keep channels of communication open between you and your ex-husband. I know one case where a man left his wife and family to marry his mistress, and the whole family turned against him. Yet he continued to write and send gifts to his children. Years when his son reached the age of 17 and got into deep trouble he couldn't take to his mother, he was able to turn to his father and received the guidance he needed.

'TIMES ARE ROUGH and we are all vulnerable. But too, have seen too many gatherings of these bitter, acid-tongued divorcees who bore each other and everybody else, too. My instant advice to any new divorcee is this: keep your opinions of your ex-husband to yourself. Your friends will respect you for not blaming him, even if they are curious enough to try to find out what broke up your marriage. And later, if you do not give in to your bitterness, you will find you have softened and are able to look at him and your marriage in more perspective.

I'll never forget the day one of my husband's employes came to him in tears, announcing she was getting a divorce, insisting. "I've married the wrong man!" My husband said to her. "And undoubtedly he married the wrong woman." It takes two to make a divorce and a good marriage. Never forget that. i Releawl bv The Regis! er and Tribune Syndic ale.

By ISABELLA TAVES Special to The Gazette One of the many nice things which happen to me is having readers pass on experiences which might help other women alone.

Not long ago, I received a letter from a divorcee who has been on her own since 1967. She wrote the following bit of advice for more recent divorcees: "On this day you enter a world completely unknown to many of you, yet you seem to know what you are heading for. You really don't, I discovered that for myself. So let me give you a little inside into what is really out therefor you. "TO BEGIN WITH, if you are bitter, you will encounter many of the same type as you (which will in time depress you).

You will also find that your children are losing their respect for you, which is heart-breaking in itself. So to begin with, remember that bitterness breeds depression and loss of respect both from others and from yourself. Begin this day to learn a valuable lesson-as long as you live you will carry the experience and hurt of the past. You and ONLY YOU can benefit from the experience. But bitterness prevents you from finding out about what really caused the divorce and your part in it.
