... From. One Who Knows Dear Martha Lee: I have read several letters from girls about going with married men. so I am going to give my experience. My parents died when I was just old enough to start to school. I -made friends with one 1 thought a young girl, but found sh; was a separated wife. She talked me into going with a man. I ke.pt company for two years, thinking he was single. Then his wife came to me. I offered him his ring and letters, but ho said he was gmug to get a divorce and if I would not marry him he would kill himaelf. I said I would not see him until he was divorced. But ho kept writing. So one night I went with him. Well, as a result (I think he drugged me), I had a baby girl. The map even robbd tie of $lB. I had always wanted a home nad sweet babies, but not a baby without a name 1 I swore I would never do anything to make -things worse for my baby. X went to work and had a hard time. When my baby was 19 months old, I married. She thinks my husband is her daddy, but when he gets mad. which is almost all the time, he throws it up to me about the other man. So I wonder whether it was right to let her think, all these years, he is her daddy, for she might understand sometime what he means, arid I think it would break her dear little heart. She loves him and her little sisters and brother. Apparently your daughter still is quite young—too young to be told her story. It would be best if she never be told It—at least not until she Is much older. Talk this matter over j with your husband. He probably does | not realize, when he is a.igry, that he I may wreck the child’s life by spoiling her faith, and that he certainly Will ruin her love for him. Then, too, it NINETY-EIGHT OUT OF EVERY - HUNDRED WOMEN who have tried Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound for ailments peculiar to their sex. have been benefited by it.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Some Like Them Long, but Most Declare for 'Sensible Length,’ Indicating Independence of Foreign Style Dictation, Paris may try to dictate the return of short skirts, but if Indianapolis women act as they talk they will wear their skirts as they “jolly well please.”

Statement of Edward Henry Molyneuax, noted Parisian designer, in The Times Thursday that the long skirt cannot stay and that the short ones will come back this fall, called forth the extpresslons. Here’s what Indianapolis women and girls say: MISS HELEN HYNES, clerk, 1126 Prospect St.—l would have them not too long and not too short. I wear mine the way they look best, anyhow. MISS MADGE RODINBERG, soda dispenser, 619 S. Coffey St.—l like them long. Last summer I wore them short: this summer I’m glad to go to the other extreme. MISS MARJORIE HUFFMAN, stenographer, Franklin, Ind. —If there can’t be a happy medium, I’ll take them long. MISS FLORENCE SEDER, publicity secretary for Community Chest, 34 Dolly Madison Apts.—The same girl could wear a gown six inches longer in the evening than the one she would wear all day. Skirts for street wear may be short hut long skirts are not street apparel. MRS. HAZEL GINTER, telephone operator, 914 Congress St. —I’m strong for long skirts. I don’t think girls can look as smart In short skirts. MISS FRIEDA KELCH, 329 N. Holmes Ave. —I don’t think skirts will ever get as short as they were last summsr. I hope they don’t. MISS GENEVIEVE GRAY, saleswoman, 1319 Nordyke Ave.—Thpee who wore them so extreme will shorten them but I don’t believe real short ones ever will come back. MISS GLADYS TERRELL, saleswoman, 2303 N. New Jersey St.—l expect they will come back. Bobbed hair looks so much better with shorter skirts. MISS KATHERINE STACKHOUSE. home economics graduate of Wisconsin University, 2833 Bellefon taine St. —For evening and recep tions I like long skirts, hut they are out of place on the street the way women are wearing them now. MRS. FRED TAYLOR. 24 N. Arlington Ave. —Leave them long. MRS. R. O. WEBSTER, office clerk. 665 E. Twenty-Fourth St. —I Uke them long. MRS W. O. COOK, millinery sales woman. # 621 E Twenty-Fifth St.—l think short skirts are ridiculous. MISS ALPHA BASSETT, saleswoman, 1248 W, Thrlty-Third St.— About twelve Inches from the floor will be most popular. I think All mv friends feel that way. MISS MADELINE BERRY, secretary, 962 W. Twenty-Seventh St..—Any sensible woman will wear her gown a sensible length. The trouble is that its always the extreme styles that you can get "on sale.” and they are the ones you like to wear.

EXTRACT FROM THE MORNING ARGUS The friends of Mr. and vJrs. John Alden Prescott have been much concerned for many weeks over Mrs. Prescott’s health. Ever since her accident on the old Post Road, Mrs. Prescott has seemed to grow weaker and weaker, both in body and mind. She seemed to think of nothing but the child which she lost at that time and it was an open secret among her friends that unless something, either a great shock or a great happiness, would change the current of her thoughts, her mind, if ryjt her life, would be in a great danger. After innumerable „ consultations with the greatest physicians in the country, it was decided that the only thing that would do her an 5- good would be the adoption of a baby. Before this decision was carried into effect, however, Mrs. Joseph Hamilton. the mother of Mrs. Prescott, opened the door of her apartment last evening—to find the traditional baby in the traditional basket. It had not been placed upon the doorstep, because the traditional young

people nowadays live in an apartment instead of a house. But there it was on the floor before the door! To say that the family was overjoyed is putting it mildly. To them it seemed a direct gift from Providence. The child, upon the suggestion of the physician, was taken immediately to Mrs. Prescott, who welcomed It with open arms. For the first time since her illnes she seemed to be perfectly rational. The little baby hands groping about her breast have done something that the greatest surgeons and physicians in the country could not do. They have brought her back to sanity and a perfectly normal outlook upon life. In a moment she had forgotten everything except that she held a tiny morsel of humanity within her arms. Mr. and Mrs. Prescott immediately took steps to adopt the child, upon whose clothing there was .notiing that could possibly suggest Its parentage, except the fineness and delicacy of the material and the loving care expended upon the embroideries which beautified the dainty fabrics. Os course, it is easy to see that

some poor mother from untoward circumstances was unable to care for her child. And hearing of Mrs. Prescott’s sad condition and knowing that she was fully able to care for herj baby, giving it the greatest comforts Und luxuries, she placed it before the Prescotts’ door. This episode, naturally, has made : a great stir in society, where the Prescotts are most popular, but neither of them would allow any investigation which would lead to the identification of the baby, i "Whoever placed that baby here,” said Mr. Prescott to the reporter, “evidently gave it to us as freely as we accepted it„ and she did not want to be known. "We will respect her wishes.” The physicians who have been bat fled by Mrs. Prescott’s case are expecting a very quick recovery, for already the young matron has seen some of her most intimate friends, ; to whom she has proudly shown her | adopted baby, which has been named j John Alden Prescott Jr. Next: Mrs. Mary Alden Prescott writes to her son, John—Disgraced j ancestry.
