LETTER FROM SYDNEY CARTON
TO JOHN ALDEN PRESCOTT
DEAR JACK:
Glad to get your letter. I’m aw-
fully sorry for you. old chap.
You are certainly getting y >ui
share of trouble. My ath’te to you.
now that you know that Leslie is get-
ting every possible care that could
be given her and that it is given
with much better methods than you
could give it is to settle down to youe
w -k. Do not stay in the sick room
too much. It will keep vou from
ti '.ing about yourself n- ■' help
you to lay up a few dollars for Les-
lie’s benefit when she 1 -overs if
you turn to your work wi‘h a will.
Oh yes 1 know that it rather
hurts your pride to think that Les-
lie's father is putting up thousands
of dollars to pay for your wife's ill-
ness but it would hurt your heart
worse if you had to depend upon
your own resources to reimburse the
r a~' specialists who are ear-
ing for Leslie now.
Leslie'« father of course would
not see his daughter want for the
slightest thing to make her con.
fortable and I consider that you arc
very fortunate in falling i.i love wit.;
a girl whose father has as much'
money as Leslie's has.
By the way. I have had a letter
from Paula Perier. Hate to inject
P. P. into your life just at present I.
I thought you might perhaps be in-
terested to know that she is goin?
out to Hollywood to g> into pictures. |
You remember she always did pho-1
.tograph pretty well and x think she
will strike her gait out there.
She has said nothing to me about
th- child since that first wire saying
one hnd been <"rn. I haven't the
slightest idea whether it is alive or
dead.
Life's a qujer thing isn’t It. Jack ?
Here is Leslie who if what vou -old
me is correct is slowly dying be-
cause her child born in respectabi!
its- and wedlock was taken a wav
from her nnd poor little Paula who
probably did not want her child to
whom it was a shame nnd disgrace
is saddled with one.
" with as much derision as
w< may after all. oW chap it is the
v -Im pays. .

True Beauty
Is impossible to those who
leave film on teeth
Prettier teeth form one great
beauty item. And millions now en-
{oy them. Every day they are com-
tating the dingy coats of film.
This offers you a ten-day test of
the method they employ. It is used
by dainty people of some 50 na-
tions now. And you will always
use it when you once see what it
does.
That cloudy film
The clouds on teeth are due to
film — that viscous film you feel.
Much of it clings and stays on
teeth under old-way brushing.
Soon that film discolors then
forms dingy coats which hide the
luster of the teeth.
Film also causes most tooth
troubles. It holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid. It
holds the acid in contact with the
teeth to cause decay.
Germs breed by millions in it
They with tartar are the chief
cause of pyorrhea flardly one in
fifty in the old days escaped these
film-caused troubles.
New-day methods
Dental science has now found
two ways to fight that film. One
acts to disintegrate the film at ail
stages of formation. The other
removes it without harmful scour-
Sf. Those methods were proved
ective by many careful tests.
Then a new-type tooth paste was

man for my wife.
Whenever I find myself falling in
love 1 find myself asking. "What
have you got to give n good woman"
and I draw back immedict !y. . . .
We ask so much and give so little;
we bec-ric bored so easily and al!

that by any possibility we are stupie

PRESIDENTS' TOMBS.
We have at Arlington. Va. n great
national cemetery and yet not one of
our presidents lies buried there. The
unknown soldier's tomb is at Arling-
ton cemetery and so are the graves ot
greet generals .and admirals and many
a common soldier. But Washington
rests at Mount Vernon. Jefferson nt
Monticello. Lincoln at Springfield.
Grant nt New York. Garfield nt
Cleveland .and Hatding in the little
cemetery at Marion.
Every one of our dead presidents
but three is buried in the state from
which he came to the presidency.
We have no Pantheon like Rome
or France no Westminster Abbey such
as England has. It is significant that
we have not such a shrine wherein
are interred the bodies of nil our
chiefs. They camo as private citizens
to the highest office and they return
to rest in the states which gave them
to the nation.—Des Moines Degistcr.
created to apply them daily. The
name is Pepsodent.
Now that tooth paste is in world-
wide use largely by dental advice.
Wherever you go you see the
benefits it brings.
Natural ways
Pepsodent acts in natural gen-
tle ways. Its effects do not come
from harsh grit.
Pepsodent multiplies the alka-
linity of the saliva also its starch
digestant. One is to neutralize
mouth acids the other to digest
starch deposits. These great
natural tooth-protecting agents
gain manifold power from each
use.
Pepsodent will bring you a new
conception of what clean teeth
mean. Send for this 10-Day Tube.
Note how clean the teeth feel after
using. Mark the absence of the
xiscous film. See how teeth be-
come whiter as the cloudy coats
disappear.

your family's sake. Cut out the

-Jlggplaiit is a delicious vegetable
with many possibilities. It makes
an excellent hearty dish if stuffed with
meat or a delic'ous breakfast vege-
table it carefully sauted in butter.
The most perfect vegetable con be
ruined in the cooking. Too long
cooking makes highly flavoied vege-
tables strong and unpleasant while
the delicately flavored ones become
tasteless. I'nderdone vegetables have
a raw unpleasant taste.
Of course the freshness and the
age of all vegetables i.as mue I to do
with the length of time required for
cooking. And a wilty vegetable should
be freshened before cooking just as
carefully as if it were to be served
uncooked. Let tand in cold water
until firm and crisp. The blanch-
ing if vegetables preserves their color
and flavor in cooking quite ns well
as in canning.

Pretty Knees? Cover ’Em Anyway—in Winter
By MARIAN HALE
New York Sept. 11.—No matter
bow pretty and dimpled and pink little
IliUKgarde's knees are cover them up
with stout warm stockings during
the cuming nippy school days. tXir
climate’s too changeable for children
to wear socks vault Dr. M. Alice
Asserson in a series of timely admon-
itions to mothers.
"It's true socks nre worn by some
child-ea in England and France dur-
ing the winter.' she says "but there
the weather's less variable. A child
IKirticularly a very little one should

Dr. Asserson is director of chil-
dren's work for the New York Tuber-
culosis Association which co-oper-
.ates in the health program of the
New York Federation of Womens
Clubs.
"Dress children in wool or silk
and not 1 undergarments or in cot-
ton. if very far south.” she advises
"but never put dark wo< lex dresses
on them. Dark wool isn't easily
eleamd and too often such dresses
are worn uncleaned from one season
to the next. Lress the child in
ginghams and prints that may be
washed weekly.
"Many country schools r.ow pro-
hibit woolen frocks. They insist on
washable garments. Some schools
have for a uniform pleated woolen
skirts with cotton bii.uses. Health
authorities >ay that the nil-cotton
frock suit or uniform is better. In
childhood diseases are more easily
contracted hence the need for the
utmost care.
"The wise mother will select gay
ginghams nnd qunint prints for her
little girl.

Grape Juice
If you like to serve a friendly glass
and a tasty cake to evening guests
grape juice answers as no other brand
of "home brew” can.
Grapes for juice should be perfectly
ripe. The fruit's sweetness is nt its
best When the grapes are not over-ripe.
Aside from beverage purposes
there are many other ways of using
grape juice. In this day of prohibi-
tion many cooks are "put to it” to
find something to take the place of
sherry and brandy in sauces and
seasonings.
Grape juice combined • -ith lemon
juice is quite all right for many pur-
poses. Pudding sauces flavored with
one tablespoon grape juice to one of
lemon juice arc delicious at d economi-
cal. Fruit cake perhaps lacks that
crumbly richness and moistness when
deprived of brandy but one table-
spoon grape juice one tabh spoon lem-
on juice and ore tablespoon cold
strong coffee used in the c ke nnd
grape juice alone used for dampening
.the wrappings will give a cake thnt's
"hard to heat.” But the cake can not
be kept indefinitely as if an alcoholic
preservative were used.
Hum baked in grape juice rivals real
Virginia ham.
There arc several ways of making
grape juice but the one I like to use
is simple but a saving of cans or
bottles.
