QUESTION: Can you call a
14 year old a femme fatale?
My 14 year old niece will be
living with us for a couple of
months and I am not happy
about it. She is budding,
attractively, if you know
what I mean. She fs and
uninhibited and very happily
conscious that she is now a
woman. She is a “10”!
There's no doubt that she's a
knockout. That’s all sorts of
fun except that she obviously

it happened again!

QUESTION: Yesterday it
happened again! Time and
time again I have a flash of
memory about some old
friends or even a recent ac-
quaintance and within a few
hours or a few days I'll get a
letter from them, or a phone
call, or F) bump into them
someplace. Yesterday
morning I woke up thinking
of a friend I have not seen
for seven years who now
lives in Hawall. That was
about 7:30 in the morning.
At 10:45 the ‘phone rarg and
there she was, asking me
how everything ls going with
me! If a thing like that
happens once, O.K., but if it
happens time and again,
what docs it mean? What is
your explanation of ft? I'm
wondering if there ts some
sort of cosmic com-
munication system that

That scaresme.

My husband is quite

enough woman's intuition to
realize that she knows he is!
Although I am pretty dam

frankly scared to have them
together alone. She's lke
those pure and innocent
young kids you see oc-

coincidences must have
some reason behind them.
How do you explain it?

STEWART: I don't. I just
enjoy it. And I guess I do
quite a bit of what you are
doing. I do a lot of won-
dering about it. So far, thank
goodness, I have never had
the slightest feeling of being
able to explain it, or any of
the other thousands of
phenomena that’ are
seemingly somewhat out of
line with the things most of
us feel pretty sure about. Fil

know more now than I did a

- STEWART: In light of your

feeling “sure” of your
husband, (except when this
“10” is around) it seems to
me the very best thing you
can do is to share honestly
your feeling of apprehension
and ask him to help you
handle them. I have a feeling
he'll come through. The
