LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES

TINUED

WiAh a queer look at me, Ruth.
my husband sprapg toward the
door.
Here. Old man, here's your 'Muv-
YER Let her see what a big boy
you are. Big boys don't cry. Go
over there and tell her how much
you love her and how you're going
t take care Of her when you grow
up and love her better than even
you father does"
Little Jack looked from his father
to me. and with that uncanny in
sight that children have he sensed
that something was wrong. But
when he crawled up to my side on
the bed. he put his tear-wet face
down close 10 mine, and with his
tiny hands wandering over my
bosom and up on my pulsating
throat. he said:
Jackie going TO 'tay here with
you always. Daddy can go home.
Jackie 'tay here"
I brought him TO me with such a
close Caress / must have hurt him,
but there was never a culver of the
brave little mouth as he murmured:
II yove you best OF ALL"
Ruth. at that moment there was
born in me a love that I am sure
no child Of my own can in any way
erase. I felt as though he had
chosen me OF his own accord, and
that with all his little sou he loved
me.
Here, here, what about me?"
asked his father teasingly.
The boy looked at him uncertain
ly, then held up his face for his
fathers kiss.
Leslie" said Jack b~rokenly. do
you know where we are? Aren't
we Just entering that beautiful land
Of Beginning Again.
Yes" I whispered as my arm
stole around his, and "a little child
shall lead them"
But alas, how fallible are mortal
plans. The telephone tinkled AT that
moment beside my bed. Jack an
swered it. I saw his face grow gray
and stern. and you would not think
that a mans voice could change as
did his.
Mrs. Prescott is quite i'll. She
cannot come to the phone"
But Jack" I said. ITS right here
by my bed. I can answer 1t. Who
is it?"
Jack raised his voice a little.
II say Mrs. Prescott is Ill. She
cannot come to the phone"
who is 1t. Jack?" I peremptorily
demanded.
For answer he said: IF you have
anything of importance to say to
Mrs. Prescott. Mr.. Whitney, will
you please write 1t to herr"
There was silence for a moment,
then again Jack spoke:
Yes, I am Mr.. Prescott"
Evidently Karl was trying to ex-
plain. My temper flared. I reached
over and snatched the telephone
from Jack.
What Is It, Karl, what is it?"
II wondered IL you had received
my letter"
Yes, I have received T."
John says you are ILL.,"
II only tainted last evening. This
morning I am all right. Tell me

Short Hair Criticised

The tide turned today and bobbed hair once more was sub
1ected to a severe fire Of criticism.
Defense Of shorn locks began after declaration Of Miss

prettiest bob in Washington, D. G, that she is sorry she has

Physical exercise helps keep the

hence more than counterbalances
the lost hour.

me. What do you advise me to do?
WHATI I DO.
You never will win your fathers
consent for you to have company
so long as you defy him and deceive
him. Besides, you are toe young to
think Of marriage. So listen to your
father. He is not strict because he
wants to make you unhappy, but
because he loves you and wants to
protect you.

Oh, those WaVeSl

Dear Miss Lee: don't know whether
Miss Dyer has her hair marcelled or not.
but If she does I'm not surprised she
wishes she had Ions hair again. I thought.
before my hair was bodied. that 1t would
cost less to take care of it. but 1 certainly
was mistaken. Getting trims and narcotics
keeps me broke half the time. Besides.
my hair doesn't look any better than il
did before. It's ali right for a day or two
after 1t is marcelled. but then 1t gets
stringy and I hate it. I'd let it grow again
I don't want to look old-maidish.
