A MULTITUDE OF WOMEN RECOMMEND IT The strongest recommendation possible for any medicine to have is the sound testimony borne by the vast multitudes of women who have used it. It has been proved that 98 out of every 100 women once Hi with ailments that caused suffering and despair have been restored to the Joys of health by Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. This marvelous record shows its power over the Ills of women, and the letters of recommendation we are continually publishing in this paper should induce every akin* woman to try it. —Advertisement.

CABLE FROM ALICE HAMILTON TO HER FATHER, .JOSEPH GRAVES HAMILTON. Arrived safely. Betty’s parents met me. Love. ALICE
Letter From Leslie Prescott to Leslie Prescott, in Care of Secret Drawer.
Something happened to ne last night that was quite interesting. I gave my first dinner to one of Jack’s friends from the office, who brought his wife to dine with us. In some peculiar way the conversation drifted round to the marriage problem. It always seems tc do this when two or three married couples get together. Mr. and Mrs. Ellington are rather strange. I would judge that Harry Ellington had been a rounder before Marriage and had not gotten over It yet. His wife, whom he called “Ruth." was, on tfae other hand, a delicate, fragile, rather sullen blond. During the conversation I found cut that although Harry and Jack were of distinctly different dispositions and temperaments, brought up in different circumstances, they each had the same old rooted opinion that when a woman was good she was very good indeed and when she was bad she was horgld. It seems strange to me that even since the war, men still hold such erroneous ideas of women. They yet do not realize thdt we are the same as tlfey are, just a queer little jumble •A yirues and vices. They Seem to want us always strong to others, but always weak to themselves. If they only knew it, women are petty at times and unselfish at others. They can be more tt nder than masculine imagination can conceive and quite as as even Rudyard Kipling declares ihey are. Every man puts his wife on a pedestal and is heartbroken If, through no fault of hers, she tumbles off It. A place on a pedestal is very difficult to maintain and I am sure every woman grows tired and wobbly up
Household Suggestions
Juicy Steak Your steak Is apt to be dry if you cook it too much or too slowly. The fire should be very hot and about eight minutes should be allowed for a steak an inch thick. Cleaning Rugs . Wherever possible, small rugs should be taken Into the yard to be beaten and swept. Large rugs snould be rolled up and the floor beneath them swept and dusted. Light Globes When you wash your electric light globes be sure to get water only on ‘the glass part, as any water or dampless left in the metal part might ■ause a short circuit.

By Tim eg Specia l MARION, Ind., July 6. —Two members of the family of Harry Lang defied the law of gravity on the Bame day without serious results. Margaret Lang fell fifteen feet when a railing on a second-story porch broke. Shortly afterward Harry Lang, Jr., drove his car down a twenty-five-foot embankment. Both were unconscious, but no serious injuries could be found.
there, for reverence is a cold kind of worship. I know that I would rather waltz /•way with a man who would call me a ridiculous creature In one breath and kiss me while he laughed at my antics in another breath. It was rather interesting to watch Ruth Ellington’s face while we were L-Iking for I could see that her husband had made her an angel too fair and frail for the cold winds of the world to blow upon. Then when he had found out that that, was not the kind of a companion he wanted, he was hieing himself to flowery fields and pastures new, leaving poor Ruth very frigid and very miserable on her little pedestal with no worshiper at all to bear her company. I wonder, gay little Marquise, if >eu found out what a complex thing life Is. We want and want and want for things and when some wonderful day they come to us, we don’t want them any more; we want something entirely different.

1 ■" ■ ■Martha Lee Says - Boy Who Grows Up Too Soon Has Hard Time
The hoy who goes out into the world to earn his own living while most boys,of his age are still in school is one of the world’s serious problems. Once away from the influence of school, th£ boy matures much more rapidly than he would were he still a schoolboy. Meeting life face to face for the first time, sometimes he becomes hardened by experience with which he was not prepared to battle so young.
He seeks the company of older people and so imbibes ideas which makes his natural companions seem irksome. Laws are compelling boys and girls to go to school to a later age now than they used to. It’s a good thing, all ’round. Deceives Girl I Dear Miss Lee: Here is something rather ] odd for you. I am a young fellow 16 years of age. I prefer the companionship of girls from five to ten years older than I. I paBS quit often for 24. My employer thinks 1 am 20 and I receive salary accordingly. A year ago I met a girl 20 years old In New York, my home then. As I told every one else, I told her I was 10. That friend ship developed into love. Now she wants to get married. She thinks I will be 21 my next birthday, whereas In fact I am going to be only 17. I have a nice bank account and receive a good salary, but m.v parents object, saying I am too young. I started to work at 13 and was allowed to go out oftener than most boya my age. I cannot think of telling her I am only 16. as she probably would be angry at me for deceiving her. She thinks that when I am 21 I will come back. I would, but I cannot, as I shall not be of legal age as she thinks I don t think I asked a question, but I had to tell someone about this If you had the power to make me 21. that is the one thing j I would ask. , A NEW YORKER 1 After all, truth is a worth-while virtue, isn’t It? It could save us from many an unpleasant situation. You asked no question. But I believe you might as well “Teas up" to the girl now. You’ll have to do It some time. And hereafter avoid deception and trouble at the same time. From Runaways Dear Miss Lee: We are two girls of 17. We have run off from home There are j two boys who say they love us They want ! us to run off and get married TU-v or. is. Please tell us best. Q. H. AND B. F. Girls, go back home. No matter! how hard it may seem now, it will be worth after you get there, and j It will mean everything to your future happiness.* Don’t worry about your parents. They will forgive you, 1 know. Make yourselves and them happy by going back. give up the idea of marrying for several years. South Side Vamp Dear Martha Lee: I am a south side vamp. b the boys call me About two months ago I fell In love with a very good- I looking fellow. He said he loved me But , I got him into almost serious trouble at school and of course our friendship waa shattered. This boy has a friend whose • name is Johnny. Johnny asked us to re- j consider We did. Now our love is shattered again. He accused m cf making 1

dates with his boy friend. I could not convince him that I did not. Please help me. Perhaps we are both too young. He is 16 and I am 14. Should I .seek other boy* to get enjoyment ? Or should I make a declaration and pursue ? Is it correct for me to write a stxteenpage letter to another boy friend of his? EVELYN OF 80UTH SIDE. Instead of seeking enjoyment from other boys, seek it from girl friends, good books and sports. Don’t let yourself imagine you are In love for several years. It is foolish for a girl your age to write a sixteen-page letter to any boy. Spend that time playing. It will be more worth your while. P. B.: Os course this man is too old for you. Try to make your present marriage a success, even though It did start too soon. Don’t make a second, even more serious, mistake by trying to get a divorce so you can marry this man who is old enough to be your j great grandfather. Still Waiting Dear Miss Lee I am a girl of 16 and have had three dates with a fellow who has just returned home from college He called later and asked for another date, but he broke it, sayuig he had to help hia mother entertain some friends that evening Do you think he it telling the truth? Should I call him? He has promised to cal lme. but has not done so yet. CURLY-HAIRED BOBBY. Judging by what you tell me, you have no reason to doubt this young man’s veracity. Walt for him to call you. And don't start worrying if he doesn’t. You’re too young to worry. MONA C.: Stop going to the theater alone, as I presume, from your leter, you do and stop going so often. Questions of Ethics Dear Mias Lee: 1. How long should a fellow and girl go together before she should allow him to kiss her? 2. How soon after a girl is married would her folks have to know to annul It? 3. What would you advise a girl about IS or 20 years old to do if her folks didn’t like her and yet she was a good girl? 4 Does a girl need a college education, or would lust a high school education be sufficient? MISS INQUISITIVE. 1. Long enough to be sure they love each other and become engaged. 2. It s age. not time, that matters. 3. The girl probably Imagines, be-
cause her folk do not give her -free rein, that they do not love her. She might try showing that she loves them, to learn that they really case for her. Love goes much deeper than mere demonstrations. 4. Sufficient for what? Os course, a college education adds much to the girl’s culture, but it is not absolutely necessary to happiness. Family Unfriendly Dear Miss Lee: I am a boy of 16 and a very popular student in one of the Indianapolis high schools. I associate with several girls, but have the slightest liking for only one. This girl is perfect. But her family plays favorites and I am left out. She has three sisters, two of whom are married, who say I am ''two-faced.” There are two fellows Who are perfect In the family’s estimation, who I know, have very low standards outside the place. The girl has no special deeire to associate with them, as she is fully aware of their actions. It is Just lately that I found out the family s dislike for me. The girl was the Informer. My mother feels as though I should break ail relations with the girl, but I find I know of no other whose friendship would please me. Now don’t think me foolish or a sheik, or in love, for I am not. My trouble seems to be In not being able to put on enough • front:" yet I am called 'two-faced " What shall I do? HAMLET. Don’t take this so seriously. As long as the girl likes your friendship you have a champion in the family, and It
How to Lose Your Tan , Freckles or Redness
A day’s motoring, an afternoon on the tennis court or golf links, a sunbath on the beach or exposure on a water trip, often brings on a deep tan or vivid crimson or, more perplexing still, a vigorous crop of freckles. Avery necessary thing then is mercollsed wax, which remove# tan, redneaa or frecklea quite easily. It literally peels off the affected skin —Just a little at a time, so there's no hurt or inconvenience. Aa the skin comes off in almost invisible flaky particles, no trace of the treatment is shown. Get ftn ounce of mercolized wax at your druggist's and use this nightly as you would cold cream, washing It off mornings. Soon you will have an entirely new skin, beautifully clear, transparent and of a delicate whiteness. —Advertisement.
