LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO JOHN AIJIEN PRESCOTT. MY DEAR HUSBAND: I have a very nice plan to propose to you. The nurse who has been taking care of your mother I find is without relatives, and she has become tired of Che life and hard work which public nursing entails. I sounded her the other day on the subject, and find that at least for a year she would very much like to settle down in some quiet, easy place like your mother’s home. She is a very sensible young woman about 30 years old. and she seems to get along with your mother perfectly. Indeed. I think it is she who made your mother so gracious to me lately. I think she would be glad to become your mother’s companion and nurse, when nursing is needed, for about $75 a month. lam sure we can in some way pay th;s to your mother. It would make her much easier, and her life pleasanter, and I am sure it would take a great deal of care off your shoulders, dear Jack. To me. dear, there is nothing in the world so easy to give as money, and yet most of us hang on to It so tenaciously. lam sure 1 can economize and pay half of this out of my allowance. for the real comfort of knowing that your mother is happy. Don’t you think it Is a good scheme? By the way, dear, I wonder if you remember when we were first married what a terrible quarrel we had and how particularly ugly you were when

I innocently opened one of your letters. 1 think you must have forgotten It; otherwise you wouldn’t have sent me Miss Perier’s letter opened. Oh, Jack! Jack! I'm afraid you will never learn that what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. You might have known 1 would have sent you the letter; then why be so curious about it? I'm wondering if you recognized the handwriting on the envelope. However, I don't think it was any more right for you to open my letters than you thought I was right In opening yours. ■ Please don’t do it in the future. I am glad you forwarded me the cables from mother and Alice. My sister Is a sly little puss, and I'm almost sure now that she's been in love with Karl ever since she little girl. They’re coming home immediately and will be married directly they arrive and arrangements can be made. All the good wishes that 1 can give her. Jack, are boiled into one. which is: I hope she'll be as happy as we have been.

Children Need Guiding Hand On Life’s Journey
A father’s inspiration in working for his children is his desire to make their lives easier and happier than his has been. If he is wise, he does ,ot set his children down in a bed of roses; that would unfit them for the battles they must face later in life.
But he does want them to have the education he missed; to be given a lift over some of the rough spots on the road of life; to be sheltered from sordid facts until they are old enough to understand. One father writes that this wish to shield his children even kept him from leaving his wife. The man was left an orphan when he was 14. He learned life by direct contact with it, with no one to give him a guiding hand. He knows how badly his children need him. Wife’s Deception Dear Miss Lee: About twelve years ago. I came to Indianapolis. I was only 18. Within a year I was married to a girl about 17 years old. I think she married me to spite another man and to get away Irom her father. Sometimes, when angry, she says she never did love me. I know =ha met this man several years ago and he was at the house during my absence. A couple of years later I learned she was going with a man supposed to be my friend. Both confessed. Two children kept me from leaving. Some say. “Children or no children. I would have left.” Listen—l was an orphan and supported myself ever since T was 14 years old. I could not see my children :i those circumstances. I believe they have stopped going together. Some time later, when I was supposed to go away, I watched the house and saw a man enter. Another young couple was there to spend the evening. Since then 1 have had no confidence in her. She claims .-he has settled down and will behave. Do you think she ever will? She is a woman in a class by herself and I hate to give her up. But I am just sick over this affair. She still insists upon associating with the people she went with, both men and women. She still goes out at nights and I slay home and care for the children. If she insisted upon doing so. would you not sue for divorce? WILLIAM S. Your children still need you, so try to keep your home together, if it is at all possible. Perhaps you could have some woman in to stay with your children several nights a week, so that you could go out with your wife. If you want to try to win her away from the friends who are not good for her. you will have to find others who will please her, you know. Possibly you can appeal to your wife’s love for the children. Try to make her see that everything she does affects them. If that does no good, let her know that you might take them from her, should she make it necessary for you to leave. Now She Wants Him Misa Martha Lee: lam a girl 20 years old. Last year, while in college. I met a nice young man who seemed eager for my company. Each time lie asked me. I refused because my chum wanted me to. During vacation. I received several letters from him, asking to come to my home. I ignored his letters. It had been a year since I heard from him. when a month ago he called me and again wanted to see me. It took me rather by surprise, so I said "No" again. After thinking it over, I really wanted him to’come. 9o I wrote him a letter asking him to come to see me. I never have heard from him and he never has come. Please tell me what to do to get him to come. LONESOME. The only thing for you to do is to sit back and contemplate cn the contrariness of the human mind in general, and yours In particular. If the man chooses to give you a taste of your own medicine, which he swallowed many times, I, for one, can not blame him. He knows you've changed your mind, so possibly he will call you again some day. Mother Afraid Dear Miss Lee: I am a girl 18 years old and am going with a fellow of 20. I have gone with him steady since Nov. 30. His mother does not want hi rato go steady with me: she is afraid we will get married. I never have met her. I do not love this boy. but I do like him. He Is a true friend and pal. He has told me he loves me. but never has spoken of marriage. I think we are too young to think of marriage for a few years, don’t you? Should I quit going with him because his mot Vier objects to his going with a steady girl? Ho is the only boy and I think she is alraid she will lose him? BOBBY V. Why not relieve the mother's anxiety and keep the boy's friendship, too? Continue to be his friend, but urge him to go to see other girls occasionally. You should not have a “steady." anyway, Bobby, until you are engaged. Little Pride Deir Miss Lee: There is a boy I like an awful lot. But he will not speak to me. The other boys like me all right. I do want him for a friend. Should I speak to him when I meet him on the street? CURLY LOCKS. Although it is the girl's privilege to speak first when she meets a boy friend, no girl with any pride would speak to a boy she knew would not return her greeting.
