I think maybe your expectations of what you will get from hyphenation are too high. Especially when you have relatively narrow text frames, hyphenation will generally not show a very pleasing result. Newspapers and other publications with narrow columns heavily use adjustments in letter and word spacing to achieve even borders. In Scribus, full justification helps this out.

Also, I'm not sure I understand your instructions. Many of the words in red are in the middle of a line, and where is the hyphenation point in "toutes"? Or for that matter, why would you want to hyphenate "toutes"?
