LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO LESLIE PRESCOTT, CONTINUED. I expect you are beginning to be bored, little Marquise, with all these descriptions of baby affairs, but I feel sorry, dear little shade of yesterday, that you never had the Joys that I have been describing to you. Sydney had to leave right after the christening. When we arrived home I found pinned Just Inside the baby's cloak a check for SI,OOO and a tiny note saying, "A nest egg for my god- : child. Watch the nest fill up. The goose that laid this one will surely put others beside it.” Dc you know, little Marquise, that I didn’t even tell Jack I had found that money? I was so afraid that It would go Just as the other SSOO had gone. That SSOO I had already re--1 placed and deposited In the bank In ! John Jr.’s name. To it the next morn- : ing I added Sydney’s check. “I am glad you like old Syd,” remarked Jack to me that nlgnt at dinner. "I’m not sure that I do. Jack.” “Why what’s the matter? He is | the salt of the earth. Almost every other woman is mad about him.” I N “Did it e\er strike you, Jack, that possibly your friend Sydney might be the father of little Jack?” "Good Lord: Where did you get that idea?” My husband hastily got ! up from the table and walked to the | window. I could see he was much | moved but before I could decide why, | he came back and standing behind I m.v chair he gripped my shoulders till | I winced with pain. "Never let such a thought enter I your mind, Sydney Carton Is the soul of honor. He would never foist his 1 child even on me. his dearest friend.” ”1 wasn’t speaking of foisting, : Jack.” "So you think we cooked up the I scheme between us?” | I could see that Jack was very angry, but I could not tell whether ! It was because I had found out the i truth or because he was angry at me foi suspecting such a thing about his friend. Just the same, dear little Mar qulse, I still think that Sydney Carton Is little Jack's father, for surely, as only Jack’s friend, he would not ! feel called upon to make the baby such a magnificent present a* a thoui sand dollar check. There, little Marquise, I am going 1 to stop talking and conjecturing about Junior for a while. ; (Copyright, 1923. NEA Service, Inc.'

* / T n occasional dose of DR. CALDWELL’S iSSr \ \ SYRUP pepsin ■feisty MaJl CC P S young girls Jtl False Modesty Wrecks Health
THE young lady just assuming the responsibilities of a woman is very apt to be self-conscious of her physical functions, and in consequence neglect them. There is no time, however, when it is more important for her to look after them. Chief among her troubles is constipation, and her suffering will be serious when she gets older if she does not regulate her bowel# now. Mrs. Alary Kellar of 132 Benton St., Sisterville, W. Va., was perplexed about her daughter until her own druggist told her they used Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin at his house, and she did likewise. Miss Irene Mazierska of 90 Peter St., Buffalo, N. Y., is glad her attention was called to Syrup Pepsin. Safe for Young and Old Let mothers with growing daughters interest themselves in this matter and see that their
judgment is enforced. A rule followed by many is to take a spoonful of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin once a week until the bowels function daily, and at such other times fit there is headache, biliousness, sores and
‘Puppy Love’ Like Fire; Handle It With Care
“Puppy love” is real enough, as far as it goes; but, after all, it’s just—“puppy love.” It brings boys and girls into unexplored fields. Without the background that continued experience gives, they are like children reaching their hands toward a bright fire, fascinated by it. They have not yet learned that love, like fire, Is dangerous if it is not handled carefully.
Frequently ‘‘puppy love” develops into mature, sincere love. Then it is beautiful; no romance gives greater pleasure than that between a man and girl who have grown up together, first as playmates, then as “pals,” and finally as sweethearts. But “puppy love” must be watched closely, for boys and girls of high school age sometimes do rash things. It Is mother’s and dad’s job to see that “puppy love” Is kept within bonds. No use trying to suppress It —no boy or girl would stand for that But It can be restrained. How About It? Dear Miss Lee: You say girls and boys of 14 and 15 who are In lore will get over it. because it is -nothing but “puppy lore.” I think you are wrong. Do you realixe that youth must have love? When children are about 5 and fl they have their sweethearts and when they get Into their teens they have thrir sweethearts. It keeps up all through life. Did you ever stop to think over some poems you have read, such as "That Old Sweetheart of Mine?" Do you think that was "puppy love?” I don't. Boys comes and go In a girl’s life, yet they cannot help doing it over and over again. It would not be life without love, because the heart demands love. 1 had boys when I was a small girl; had then when I was in my teens: I grew with the world and its ways and still had them Now 1 am too old to say I have them now. but 1 have been watching the girls of today and they are going through the same way I went 1 just think it is natural to love, don't you? Would you please give yonr idea of love? MRS R Love is a beautiful gift heaven has seat down to keep tho world going In the right direction; it is unselfishness, sympathy, sacrifice, honor. You express my idea of “puppy love” when you say “boys come and go In a girl's life.” That is why I warn young people of the dangers of puppy love. They are not old enough to know when they have fount" the “right one.” It Is not [email protected] puppy love Is always forgotten; often It grows Into true love. But It must be given time, and should not be taken seriously as long as It still Is In the puppy love stage. Every day girls and women write to me of their unhappiness because they married when they were 16 or 17, at the “puppy love” age. Later they realized their mistake. We all remember our “puppy love” days. We cherish * them. But most of us are glad we got through them safely. Poor Junior Dear Martha Lee: 1 am a brokenhearted Junior. I had a very dear friend. He aluayg came on Saturday nights Sunday we always went to League and then aang in the church choir. But some how I cannot hold boys' interest. He came one night and I was In Columbus. Sunday nirfht lie took me home from church, but last Pr.turrtay night he did not come and the neat Sunday he rang in the choir, but left before I got out. I have other boy friends, but this one seems to hurt me more. T try to keep neat but I have long hale, I fix it up nice. Do you think that would make mo uninteresting? What do boys admire about a girl? Everyone thinks I atn good looking and popular. You say girls should have a lot of boy friends and not a steady friend. I car not get along. The boys gel angry with one another because they get a date or beat another fellow's time. Then they are not on good terms with me. Please tell mo what boys like, for all boys are different. I ant 17 and have to study almost every night. But I like fun and shows oneo or twice a week BROWN BYES You ore right; all bo£s ars different. There are a few general qualities they all like in a girl, however: Cheer-
fever blisters, lack of energy and appetite, sleeplessness, indigestion. A dose can be given in these conditions to any member of the family however young or old as Syrup Pepsin is a simple compound of Egyptian senna with pepsin and pleasing aromatics, and perfectly safe. Public Recognizes Merit You will quickly see the difference between a mild laxative like Dr. Caldwell’S Syrup Pepsin and castor oil, or rough cathartics and physics. Syrup’Pepsin acts gently and does not gripe. Increased doses are not necessary. A bottle can be had at any drug store, and a spoonful costs less than a cent. It has been successfully used for thirty years and is the largest selling liquid laxative in the world, over 10 milliondoottles having been sold in drug stores last year. Keep Syrup Pepsin in your medicine cutest.

fulness, sympathy, friendliness. Develop those qualities. For the rest, you seem to have plenty of boy friends, and, if they fight over you, let ’em fight, but don’t pay too much attention to them. Don’t worry about the boy who wandered away; you’re too young to both much about matters. I hardly see why long hair sl ould make you uninteresting. I don’t think the world has come to that. Be intelligently interested in other people and no* one will think you uninteresting. JAIL CURE FOR ADDICTS Federal Authorities Say Many are Freed of Habit. For an effective cure of the dope habit, Federal authorities recommend the Marlon County Jail. They say many-genuine cures have been effected In the cases of prisoners confined over a period of months. Monday five persons, said to be addicts, were let off with technical sentences of one day in Jail by Judge Albert B. Anderson. All had been confined about six months.

U. S. Girl More Modest Than English
Us [MERICAN girls are far more „ A modest and dignified than . *•! their English cousins,” * declared Mrs. Mary E. White of Indianapolis, in a talk on her recent visit to England before the young women’s class of the Immanuel Reformed Church, at the home of Miss Alma Muegge, 405 Lincoln St. The American mother becomes shocked at the bobbed hair craze and popuar dances, but the English girls think nothing of perching themselves on top a bus gayly puffing a cigarette, the speaker said. It Is nothing to ride a London bus with several young women sitting around pou enjoying their “fag." Young daughters are free to smoke at home In the presence of their parents, said Mrs. White. “Thousands of men are seeking employment in England. In one small town I visited 3,000 men were Idle. The government pays 15 shillings a week to men who fall to find work. The Presbyterian Churches of Portsmouth are doing a wonderful work for the unemployed. "English boys and girls get only three weeks vacation from school every summer, besides one week off at Christmas and Easter. Much of i the charitable functions are being carried on by the churches. “One thing that amused me was the English movie theater or ‘cinema’ as they call it. The most expensive seats are In the balcony and gallery while the popular priced ones are on the lower floor. Women are' permitted to keep their hats on and the haze of smoke from cigarettes In the theaters is most disgusting. “The Prince of Wales is 44ie pride of all Englishmen,” Mrs. White a<Tded. _“I was visiting my sister In Upway village and the Prince happened to visit there one day. People from miles around Journeyed there | that day to get a glimpse, of him. He ;Is quite a lovable chap and * very chatty.” KIDS SCORE GOAL; $lO “Toe Experts” Didn’t Expect Ball to Go Through Auto Top.

PARTY REFRESHMENT mF you are entertaining your bridge club in the near future you are undoubtedly racking your brains for something a bit different to serve and anew way to serve it. Wouldn't a buffet service from the diningroom be a relief to both the hostess and guests? And If the party’ isn’t a club party the move from the tables to the diningroom makes for greater sociability among the guests. The setting of the table with flowers and candles can be made so lovely that the beauty of the whole party Is enhanced. Table Arrangement The meticulous care with which the table is arranged bespeaks an experienced hostess. Absolute order and neatness must prevail. The silver ar ranged in rows, the napkins In piles, the plates and cups in perfect balance at opposite sides or ends of the table and the sandwiches and cakes placed with geometrical precision on plates or trays—these details mean much to the ease of service as well as to the attractiveness of the table. The centerpiece for the buffet luncheon table can be high. If desired. Candies make a lovely light in the late *fternoon dusk and add to thp fest’vlty of the occasb n. Four are used In the center of the *ab’e making a square, and one can be used in each corner of the table as the hostess sees fit. Shades are passe, so let the candles throw their gleams unshaded. The Menu The menu may Include tea and coffee or chocolate, a salad, sandwiches, an Ice and cakes. Salted nuts, olives and bon-bonsi are usually provided. Two close friends are asked to “pour," one at each end of the table Tiny Individual salads are arranged on a platter for each guest to help herself. These salads would be quite enticing If Jellied in molds of hearts,
