FROM MRS. JOSEPH GRAVES
HAMILTON TO LESLIE
PRESCOTT
MY DEAR DAUGHTER:

MY DEAR DAUGHTER:
1 know you will forgive me when
say that it seems very good to be
home again. 1 didn't want TO leave
you, child-you know that-until you
were perfectly able to get along with
out me and 1 think you are now. Con-
sequently. 1 have enjoyed my home
coming more than can tell you.
Perhaps one of the reasons why
have been so happy is the thought
that you are still alive. Oh, Leslie
dear, now that It is all over I may
tell you how my mind was tortured
with the expectation of either losing
you altogether or having the knowl-
edge that you were shut up in some
sanitarium unconscious of all of us
who love you.
1 shall never be grateful enough
to that poor mother who left her
babe just outside your door. She
saved your life, my dear. All the
medicine and all the brain of the
greatest specialists in the country
had no effect. All the great love of
your mother and father and Jack,
all the solicitude and sympathy Of
your friends did not keep you from
slipping into the void of melancholia
Wish She Could Realize
Sometimes, Leslie dear, I almost
wish that poor mother knew just
what she had done for you. I al
most wish she could realize that she
had given her child into the keeping
Of some one who would love 1t as
she did and who could give 1t every
luxury as well as necessity that can
come into the lives of mortais.
l found, when l arrived home, that
Sally Atherton and her husband were
here. Just at present they are board
ing with an aunt of Sans. A mother
ly old soul, capable and energetic.
She has taken them both under her
wing and 1 think it is in every way
a splendid arrangement.
Poor Sam is at times very despond-
ent, but Sally tells me that he is
steadily getting better. He-.can now
see almost any object that Ia within
twenty feet of him. although he can
neither read nor write. He has taken
his cousin, a son of the woman with
whom he is boarding, as his secre-
tary. He is a boy Just from college,
who is very anxious to learn the
steel business.
Suggestions to Father
That boy has been all over the plant
with Sam, your father says, and he
has described everything that he saw
TO Sam, who has asked questions of
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1923-08-23

every one. Sam has already made
some suggestions to your father, in
the way of cutting costs, that he
thinks are very fine and he is going
to put them into practice right away.
Your father is very much pleased
with both Of the young men. He
says that they will both work into
something very good. especially If
Sam gets back his eyesight 1 am
particularly pleased with Sans cou-
sin. Jimmie. He is so fine in his
treatment Of Sam. Almost any other
boy as ambitious as he would some
times be impatient of the necessarily
slower methods OF blind man. But
Jimmie, your father says, Is never
impatient ard always listens to the
answers Of all the questions that Sam
asks and~shows his great attention
by asking many of his own.
Sally is quite happy. She finds
herself now in a position where she
can take up her old outside work
and I think It would be better for
all concerned IL she did so.
Haven't heard from Alice since
came home. Have you?
Lovingly.

We can no longer conceal a too pudgy
arm nder flattering draperies or non
committal long sleeves. They must
be reduced-or developed as the case
may be-and beautified If we wish
them to be attractive with the fash

1t is difficult to reduce the arm per
ceptibly without reducing the weight
considerably, but there are several eff
fective exercises that reduce the shoul
ders and keep little pads Of fat from
appearing beneath the arm.
One way is to stand erect with the
arms outstretched at right angles
with the body Then raise the arms
upward, pulling upon them as though
you had a heavy weight on each arm.
Another one that is very reducing
is to throw the arms straight out in
them, first to the right and then to
the left.
The best all-round exercise 1 know
for shoulders, arms and waist mus
cles is the scythe exercise-you re-
member how the farmer cuts his tall
grass with swinging strokes?
OF course. you haven't a scythe.
but you can get a broomstick, I'm
sure. Grasp it with each hand about
a foot apart. dividing the space of
the stick into thirds. With the feet
we'll apart. start with the stick high
on the left side. swoop down just
escaping the floor with the broom
stick and come up high on the right
