TF you want an unprejudiced viewpoint, write to Jane Jordan. What is that question you always have wanted to ask someone? Write your letter today. Dear .lane Jordan—To Just Another Mother—A few years ago I was in tne same place as your daughter is today. I was 16. in high school, and I began to find things out and to wonder about forbidden fruits. Among them were drinking and smoking. My folks always impressed me with the harmfulness of tobacco and alcohol, but I was determined to try both. . One night I tried my first Mektail. but to mv surprise I neither cared for the teste nor the effects. During the e\entng my best girl friend acted disgracefully. and I swore such a thing never would happen to me. , . . , T don't consider that elß a re ts ar * 5 third as harmful as al , c s )hol Mn , I h sr was smoking when I was 15 to irrrihlv hurt., but said that ll I carca 10 lower my,elf to other people’s standards to be popular, that would be my Pr sbe eß compllmented me fordTev "back" Ijont of her instead of *Mnd h back should be thankcisarets ssfiZ TX’ X Another jou abouldn t carry ouj.yth* ' Dear Just Twenty-One Your mother sounds like a pretty wise woman to me. There is so much prejudice centered around cigaret smoking that it is hard to get people to face the facts. The human race has a curious faculty for shutting its mind to facts it does not wish to accept. Where adults are concerned, cigaret smoking is an individual decision. Those who do not care to smoke have no right to condemn the habit in others. Sometimes I think a good definition of sin is, "those pleasures in which you do not care to indulge yourself." j When pressed for a reason for i their condemnation, anti-smokers, hide behind the statement that to- j bacco is bad for . , . the health.

Yet one would hesitate to call the swimmers sinful. If the pleasure they receive is worth the | risk, we feel that is their own affair. Therefore, the argument that smoking is bad for the health is not sufficient to account for the strength of.the prejudice.

They 1 resent being treated as children and feel that orders which were well received in the nursery now are an affront to their dignity. To them cigaret smoking is a symbol of maturity. They feel that they owe it to their personal prestige to adopt the habits of their j elders. Those who have been brought up to believe that tobacco is morally wicked, instead of being merely questionable from the standpoint of health, long to taste the tang of forbidden fruit. This preverse desire for that which is denied is a human trait as -old as x!ve.

Letters of opinion from readers always are invited. * tt u Dear Jane Jordan—l was 16 when I started to smoke. .Last fall I contracted a cough rnlch became so bad that I went to a lung specialist, who pronounced me tubercular.

Indulgence in rich foods, tobacco, or anything else that piles up acid in the system should be offset with a little Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia. This neutralizes the acidity and you feel fine. Plenty of men know there nothing like it for ‘'mornings after." Get the genuine; there’s something about the Phillips formula, and the way Phillips’ is made. Substitutes don’t act the same. ALSO IN TABLET FORM, Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia Tablets, are now on sale at drug stores everywhere. Each tiny tablet is the equivalent of a teaspoonful of genuine Phillips’ Milk of Magnesia.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

NEW YORK, Nov. 18.—Despite the predictions of the meteorological experts for a colder winter . . . and regardless of the price of fuel . . . it’s going to be easier ai id less costly to keep warm these next few months. If you’re in fashion. For warm winter in fashion. Not only among older folks and inhabitants of the frozen north. But among the gay sub-debs and dwellers in steam-heated apartments. And those fashionable warm winter woolies are priced less this winter. Even the formerly very expensive and luxurious rabbits’ hair ones. They’re Form Fitting Os course, they wouldn’t be so much in fashion if they weren’t perfectly form-fitting. For no smart woman is going to spoil the figuresetting silhouette of her new Edwardian dresses by bulky underSo they’re knit to fit. With ribbing through the waist to make them cling and keep the slimwaisted effect. Or cunningly seamed in the shape of the body. Their yarns are so fine, so soft, you almost wonder how they can keep you warm . . . but they do. And rabbits’ hair and angora yarns are the lightest of the lot. Wool in Combination But if you don’t care for the fuzzy kind of wool, you can be just as comfortable in plain wools that are quite as warm and fit as perfectly. Are in wools mixed with rayon or cotton. Combination garments . . . vests and panties in one (or union suits as they used to be called) . . . are a fine idea as they keep one continuous unbroken line through the waistline section. But two pieces—vests and panties separate—are preferred by many. And in a changeable climate you may find these more practical. A separate pair of wool panties is comfortable to pull on over your ordinary silk lingerie if you’re going to be out in the open for a while ... or if you change from a long fur coat to a short fur jacket.
