Dear Sir, - There seems to be quite a number of your lady readers who have lost one or more of their limbs, and I am very proud to think that I have so many friends who, like myself, have only one leg.
Most folk think that the loss of a leg is about the worst thing that could happen to a girl; but I might say that a one-legged girl can be quite as happy and fascinating as a girl who has not suffered an amputation.
There is no great difficulty in travelling on one leg, and I am sure that a pretty girl wearing a knee-length dress, and whose one and only leg is shrouded in a silk stocking, and upon whose dainty foot is a lovely high-heeled shoe, will be the cause of many admiring glances wherever she may go.
I always wear a shoe with a high heel, and I am pleased to see that other one-legged readers of your excellent paper have realised the important part played by a slim "Eiffel Tower" heel in the fascination of a one-legged girl.
Hoping to see other letters from limbless readers and more stories by Wallace Stort appearing in your entertaining weekly in the near future, also sketches by your clever artist, Miss E. H. Stanton.
Yours hopefully,
High-Heeled Monoped II
