Dear Sir, - The story in your Summer Number, entitled "Le Moignon D'Or," seems to have raised a great deal of interest among your limbless girl readers, and I should like to add my voice to the swelling songs of praise.
I think it was a most wonderful story, told in a marvellous way, and it does credit to your ever-bright and original paper to publish such an extraordinary story, as well as the article in you Autumn Annual.
The idea of a club run exclusively for beautiful girls who have lost one or more limbs is very fascinating.
I should like to pay a visit to such a club. I could easily obtain an entrance, as I lost my right leg when I was quite a child, and have learnt the art of graceful carriage from infancy.
It must be a wonderful sight to see all around very fascinating girls - members of the club, waitresses lift-girls, etc. - all of whom have one leg or arm entirely absent.
To leave the imaginative for a time and come back to facts. I think the letter from the doctor who married a limbless girl should endorse the fact that a pretty girl who has possibly no limbs at all can be a very fascinating companion, or even wife.
My young man never seems to find my lack of a right leg at all distasteful. In fact, it would appear that my loss really gives an added charm. He also encourages any attempt on my part to master any fresh impulse which I may get to try to do things with the ease and grace of a normal girl.
When I wished to wear a shoe with a high heel, he immediately wrote to a firm who specialised in this type of footwear, and I was presented with a shoe the heel of which was five inches. I soon mastered the added height, and obtained the required degree of daintiness which gives the extra touch of charm to wearers of these shoes, and I might add that I have worn a high heel ever since, and have derived much pleasure from same.
In conclusion, may I urgify all my one-legged girl friends to practice stunts, etc., performed by normal girls, as this will bring them one-legged perfection; and will you, Mr. Editor, publish some more stories of limbless girls in the near future?
Yours sincerely,
Happy Monoped.
