LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT TO SYDNEY CARTON DEAR SYD: You can imagine, old chap, how your letter messed up my emotions as well as my nerves. I don’t wonder you feel like moralizing a little. It’s a Queer thing that is happening to me Just at present, isn’t it? And yet I expect, if we only knew it and could look into the hearts and minds of our friends and acquaintances, we would find there are jnst as many secret places where they have hidden away things they hardly confessed to themselves, as we have ours. So wonder you feel like moralizing Syd, but to toil you the truth I don’t feel like moralizing. I feel like kicking myself all over the lot. Poor darling, Leslie! Poor little Perier! Actually, Syd, you are right. "The woman pays.” And yet I think I would probably rather have the conscience that belongs to either one of those girls than my own at this moment. I tell you the torments of the damned have nothing on me. Some people might think it very terrible for me to speak of Paula in the same breath in which I speak of Leslie, but poor little Paula was more sinned against than sinning, and I am sure that Leslie, bless her heart, would understand. I am the one that should not be mentioned to Leslie, and unfortunately I am right under her nose most of the time. She is not at all like herself, Syd. She hasn’t mentioned in the slightest way that she would care to leave her bed She accepts, with that gracious krnile of hers, all that the nurses do m her. But she does not seem to lV- to live. She hardly speaks a during the whole time she Is Vake, and even when I come in to 5.1 k to her at night or In the morning, she scarcely pays any attention to tpe. She Justs He* there looking out of

It Is a ragged, weather-beaten old Star Spangled Banner, but It is dear to Miss Mary Caroline Holmes, author and war-heroine. She carries it with her. The few bullet holes that mar the banner recall to Miss Holmes one stirring night of anxiety in far away Cilicia—the night the flag was born. Miss Holmes made it with her own hands, out of Turkish calico and a clean bed-sheet. She loves to caress it and is willing to fight for it. In 1920 Miss Holmes, who was decorated here last week by Gen. Henri Gouraud of France, was mothering 1,000 Christian orphans at Ursa, Cilicia. and caring for French wounded. Continuous Turkish firing over her orphanage and hospital became a menace. Little children were being struck and wounded by Turkish bullets. The Turkish leader in his frenzy to get at the French refused to respect the flag of the American Red Cross. “Then my Yankee blood boiled,’’ says Miss Holmes. “I knew a flag the Turk would respect.” With flashing eyes Miss Holmes reOwens, have gone to Lake Maxinkuckee. • • • Miss Beatrice Moore. 3301 Central Ave., has returned from Lake Wawasee. She was accompanied by Miss Clara Louise Wald. • * * Mrs. A. E. Drew and daughters, Pauline and Dorothy. 32&8 Park Ave.. j have motored to Moundsvi’le, W. Va., to visit Mrs. Drew's father. Dr. E. J.

the window as though she wanted to pierce through the sky into the Great Beyond—into that Never-Never Land, which Barrie has described as being the abode of baby souls wait ing to be born. She has never said a word to me about our baby. In fact, I do not think she has mentioned it to anybody. But every one of us can see that because she knows now this fchild which she has longed for will never be hers, she herself does not want to live. I had a long talk yesterday with one of the specialists that Mr. Hamilton has brought down from New Y'ork, and he suggested that he was pretty nearly at the end of his string, as far as she was concerned. He said that it was her mind apd not her body. He told me that there was really nothing the matter with her, except the fact that nothing interested her. "If you could take her out of herself.” he said, “or she should receive some great physical shock, it might bring her back to normal. As it is, as far as I can see, there is nothing the matter with her physically, but I am sure that she is only thinking of one thing. "If she does not get any better within the next two weeks,” he said, “I would advise you to take her out in the country and see if the unfamiliar surroundings will not touch up her interest in life. If nothing else does any good, perhaps you had better suggest to your mother-in-law that she go over to the Children’s Home and pick out a little baby and bring it to your wife. I have known that, in some cases, to do the work.” Tomorrow we are going to take Leslie to a convalescent home. When I asked her if she wanted to go she answered. “Yes, if you wish me to,” in absolutely a lifeless voice. Syd, if Leslie dies, I will never forgive myself. JACK.

MISS MARY C. HOLMES
lates how she a.nd her assistants toiled the first half of the night making the flag—how they puzzled over the stars, how to make them perfect. The original star—the copy —now rests between the leaves of Miss Holomes’ Bible. Under cover of darkness the flag was hoisted on the orphanage roof. At dawn little children came running to her, and pointing to the starry banner, exclaimed, “Oh. Miss Holmes, your flag—and our flag—is there.” The few bullets which struck the flag were not. fired intentionally. Miss Holmes thinks. “I sent word to the Turkish leader,” she said, "that the flag of my country was up and that any untoward act would be considered unfriendly by my Government. I need not say that the Turk does not fire on the American flag—we were safe." Miss Holmes will be in Indiana a few weeks giving addresses on conditions in the Near East. She spent twenty years in Turkey. She may be addressed through the Near East Relief, 528 People's Bank building. of Terre Haute. Ind.. Dr. and Mrs. George L. Clark and Dr. and Mrs. L.

Household Suggestions
Wall Marks Those marks on the wall made by careless people who scratch matches there may be removed by rubbing them with a piece of lemon. Discolored Water If your drinking water seems discolored or dirty looking, tie a thick square of absorbent cotton over the
mouth of the faucet. This will clear it nicely. Os course, the cotton must be changed daily. Bath Tub Common baking soda applied on a damp cloth will clean the bath tub quite acceptably. Scaling Fish When cleaning fish, pour boiling water over the fish until the scales curl. Then they can be scraped off very easily. Left-Over Potatoes Don’t pile left-over potatoes together In a bowl, as they will sour quickly. Spread them out on a large dish. Ironing Tablecloth To iron your tablecloth to best advantage, fold it wrong side out with selvages together and corners even. Then Iron both halves of the wrong side. Browned Beef Put a little sugar to the liquor In you baste the roast beef If you want It to get rich and brown in color. Turn Mattress Turn your mattress frequently from end to end and side to side. Then it will wear evenly and be more comfortable. Wall Paper To remove wall paper from the wall use a heaping tablespoon of saltpeter
PH
t#, each gallon of hot water and apply this mixture with a brush. Salty Soup When the soup is too salty add a few slives of raw potato &.nd remove after they have boiled a few minutes. They will absorb some of the .salt.
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
—Martha Lee Says Girl of Today- Lacks Charm of Mystery
Gentle maidens of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries were adept in the art of coquetting. They knew just how to use their fans and their eyes, when to encourage and when to hold back. v The modern girl, with other things than love to occupy her mind, has been criticised frequently for her methods of lovemaking. She gives herself away too quickly, and she lets the men know too much about her, say the critics.
Although we should not want to go back to the time when women were made happy or miserable by men, when their whole lives were devoted to getting, and then to keeping, husbands, it is true we could put to good use some of their methods. Part of woman’s charm always lies In mystery'. Love Waning Dear Mies Lee: lam a girl 18 years old and quite popular with the fellows. There Is one fellow I have, been groins with for nine months. I am very much in love with him. Dut it seems as if he does not care for me the way he used to. The trouble is. he knows 1 love him. 1 don't tare anything about the rest of the fellows. How can I win back his love? I know there is no other sir!. I followed your advice before and everything: turned out splendidly. MARGIE. Glad everything turned out so well before. I hope I can he of as much help this time. Apparently you have overplayed your hand. Half the game is to keep the man guessing until he declares his trump. To retrench part of your losses, you had better go with some of the other men. even though you do not care much for them. That will give you the upper hand again, because then this man will not be so sure of himself. You are still quite young and it Is quite possible that she man, if he does love you, does not want to tell you so until he can ask you to marry him. Temper Needs Controlling Dr nr Martha bee: I am 20 years old and married —not very lone. Every time I make my husband angry by not minding him he tells me he does not love me and is going to leave me He says he did not intend to live with me as long as he has. when he married me It hurts me very much. I used never to say anythnig back. SISTER, By SISTER MARY CANNING BEETS CAN beets early In the season while th~y are small and tender. Winter beets require long eook- ! lng and to the housekeeper who must ! buy her fuel by feet or units every | hour spent In the cooking of a vege tabje is quite an item. Beets for canning should be a dark rich red. Care must be taken when washing not to break the skin, for i this will mako them lose color. The only satisfactory way of can ! r.ing beets Is by the cold pack meth od. Very few vegetables are canned by the open kettle method and beets especially are Impossible to can that ; way. To Can Boots Wash beets carefully. Cut off leaves, graving two Inches of stems. Do not j cut tap root or break the. skin In any I way. Boil for an hour. The beets should be about three-quarters done so that the skins will slip easily. Re move from boiling water and dip in cold water. Slip skins and pack in sterilized jars. The beets can be sliced or diced or left whole just as they are to be served. More beets can be put into can If they are cut. Fill sterilized Jars to within one-half inch of the top with beets. Add one-half teaspoon salt and one-half ! teaspoon sugar for pint jars. Fill to | within one-fourth inch from the top I with boiling water. Half sea} and put in hot water bath j for two hours. Remove from boiler and seal. Turn upside down to cool, j When cold store In a dark, cool place. There never was man who didn’t ! like beet pickles and they are the easiest kind of pickles to mako. They are especially delicious to serve with fish or fowl. Pickled Beets | Beets, vinegar, sugar, sajt. I Wash beets carefully as In preced lng recipe. 801 l until tender. They should cook In an hour and thirty min- ! utea at the most. When done plunge i Into cold water and slip the skins. Cut In slices about one-half Inch thick and pack In sterilizer jars. Be careful not to break the slices when packing. Use one cup granulated sugar and one teaspoon salt to each quart of vinegar. Put vinegar, sugar and salt In preserving kettle and bring to the boiling point. 801 l three minutes, removing scum as it rises. Do not boil more than three minutes, because long cooking of vinegar will make it “ropy.” Pour boiling vinegar over beets in j jars and seal. __The vinegar must cover the beets completely and the jars must he full to overflowing. Run a spatula down the side of Jars to be sure that the vinegar fills the can. The secret of any canning done by the open kettle method lies in making cans full to overflowing, thus excluding all air, and in having the contents of the cans boiling when sealed.

but lately I don't care it I hurt him the same way he hurts me. I love him very much. Please tell me what you would do —tell him he can leave if 1 have caused him so much unhappiness, or Ignore his remarks? When he is not angry, he is as niee nad sweet as can be. He tells me he me. too, and makes plans lor the future. BOBBIE. tour husband certainly should be taught, some way, to control his temper. But first, in what way do you fail to “mind" him? If you knowingly arouse his anger you arc partly to blame. It will take a shock to awaken him. “Talking back” will just throw a wider breach between you. Instead, next time he starts such a tirade, warn him you will leave him and stay away until he controls his temper. Carry out your threat if It happens again. But be careful that you show him you are just trying to help him control himself and you really love him. UNHAPPY': Hard as it may seem, I think the only thing for you to do. for your sake and that of your brothers and sisters. Is to go to Juvenile Court authorities or the Family Welfare Society. They can warn your father, without court action unless it proves absolutely necessary. Brothers Like to Tease Dear Miss Lee: I am a young man 20 years old and have three older brothers. I board at home. I am In love with a very, very stout girl. The other night we were at a park. and. as she is kiddish. she asked for a red balloon. I bought one for her. and then she wanted a purple one. Os course I bought it too. My older brothers saw me. and now they tease me so much T can hardly stand It Should I stay home or leave? TWO BALLOON PETE. Y’ou must be made of sterner stuff. | Pete, to get through this world. What’s a bit of teasing, more or less? All brothers do if. Laugh with your brothers when they start to laugh at you, and you will find that soon they will think you too good a sport to tease.
