Ross

I believe the answer is:

misuses

'treats badly' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for misuses that I've seen before include "Applies badly or incorrectly" , "Badly treats" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the King Feature Syndicate.
