For years Bob has been making a low raspy noise in his throat. Sometimes it has a slow beat. Other times, when he's deep in concentration, it speeds up. This is worse than Chinese torture. It is also embarrassing. People seated near us in a movie or concert must find it very annoying. I often wonder how his stand it. We've been married for 15 years. Bob's habit began as an occasional throat-clearinbut now it is almost constant. Strangely enough, he does not do it in his sleep. In my il phoned a n psychologist. He said if I couldn't get my husband to see him, that I should come in. I saw no sense in making an appointment for myself since I'm not the one with the problem. . Please tell me what to do about this guy. I am Going Bonkers In Chicago. I Dear Bonk: Bob should see a throat specialist and learn if there is an organic problem. It might be something that can be easily corrected. 'Dear Ann Landers: Many years ago when I was growing up, most people didn't have cars. They used public transportation. I had been taught as a child to give up my seat to an older person who was standing. Later on, as a young adult, I adhered to this practice. Now the shoe is on the other foot. I am a woman in my 60s and still Working, not because I want to, but because I must. Most days I ride to work with a friend, but there are times when I take the bus. Usually I board too late to get a seat. The bus is an express that takes a shortcut to town which involves many curves. I often get quite dizzy since I must stand the entire way. The bus is generally full of young healthy-lookin- g men and women, but not once has anyone offered me a seat. I realize things have changed since I rode the bus in the '30s, but hopefully common courtesy has not disappeared completely. I live in Richmond, Va., and should you choose to print this, perhaps some kind commuter will rise and offer an older person a seat today. A Fellow Traveler Dear Traveler: Chivalry is not dead, but it is not in very good health. And there is a reason. The world is cot as friendly a place as it used to be. Crime, drugs and a proliferation of handguns tend to make folks fearful of strangers. A seat on the bus is the least of U People are murdered on the street and nobody stops to help. It's a sad commentary and I have no answers. Dear Ann Landers: After reading the letter from "Heartsick and Confused," the mother who had found birth control pills in her teenage daughter's chest of drawers, I felt compelled to share my experience, which is a good deal sadder. Ten months ago that letter could have been written by me. I, too, raised a daughter in the faith and I, too, found the Pill and confronted her. She cried and told me she was sorry she let me down, swore on the family Bible that she would mend her ways and begged me to trust her. logether, we threw the pills away. As I write this letter, the girl is 16 years old and six months pregnant. The boy and his parents want nothing to do with the problem. They called her a "tramp'' and don't wish to hear anymore about it. Please, "Heartsick and Confused." do not confront your daughter, You will do more harm than good. Ann Landers is absolutely right when she says, "Once your teenager has had sex, she will not give it up." How I wish I had just kept quiet and spared our daughter and the family the heartache of this pregAlso Heartsick But Wiser nancy. Now, Too Late Dear Heartsick: Many in the reading audience will lay we both re wrong, but I thank you for sharing your experience. It wai not an easy letter to write and I'm glad you found the courage to do to. America's Most Popular Reel! DEHlMS SHRIHK-TQ-FI- T Our Lowest Price!
