Zetta, preys upon society with the aid
of his beautiful wife. She seems to
be in love with young French noble
man who is, however, the real ag-
gressor in this triangle. De Dazetta
finds that the young nobleman's love
for his wife is changing her strangely
for the better-that she begins to
abhor his gambling profession and his
lnroads upon society. However he
continues to use her beauty as lure
to his gaming tables and wins prodigi-
ously. In the meantime the nobleman
breaks with young woman aristo-
crat whom his mother wishes him to
wed.
During transaction with an Amer
lean whom he borrows money to re-
pay his gaming losses to de Dazetta,
The nobleman learns Of the Hawk S
deep and sincere love for his wife,
which is further complicated by a
discovery that the woman is helping
de Dazetta to win.
Marina, the wife, now washes her
hands of the whole gaming enterprise
and is accused of infdelity by her
husband, who tries to kill the<noble-
man. Failing, he leaves, and the
protects the wife while at
tempting to locate the gambler and
gets his consent to divorce.
Finally this is effected, and Marina
herself pleads for the divorce. That
is until she learns that de Dazetta is
now penniless, having lavished his
every cent upon her and really loves
aer and has consented to give her up
only because he thinks it best for her
future welfare. At this nobility her
womanhood comes to the surface and
she cleaves to him, renouncing the
nobleman, her love for the latter .hav-
ing been without sin throughout.

1t Isn't Your Town-It's You.
If you want to live in the kind OF
town
That's the kind of a town you
like,
You needn't slip your clothes in
grip
: And start on long, weary hike.
You'll find elsewhere what you left
behind,
For there's nothing that's really
new.
. It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your town.
Itaisn't your town-it's you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead.
When every one works and nobody
shirks
You can raise a town from the
dead.
And while you make your personal
stake,
Your neighbor can make one, too !;
Your town will be what you want
to see;
1t isn't your toWn-lt's YOU.

MODELS MURDER
STILL UNSOLVED
Coroner's Jury Is Unable to
Fix Blame at Formal
Inquest

Philadelphia, March 1Y!-Ignoring the
theory of the police that Bernard w.
Lewis, of Pittsburgh. killed Maize Col
bert, the model, who was slain in her
apartments at Fifteenth and Poplar
streets, December 20 last, coroner's
jury rendered verdict that she met
death at the hands of an unidentified
person.
The inquest was marked by a tilt
between DR.. John Marshall, a bacterl-
oloG!st, and DIR. Wadsworth, the Coro-
ncr'S physician. DR.. Marshall stated
there was possibility that blood found
on the woman's bed clothing had come
from wounds she is supposed to have
inflicted by biting Lewis on the fingers.
DR.. Wadsworth declared there was no
just reason to believe that the injur-
les o1 Lewis hand were inflicted by the
woman.

woman. was among those interrogated.

Needs SIS Daily to Live

New York, March II. - Cornelius
J.Sullivan, as special guardian of John
Jacob Astor, 4 years of age, has filed
report approving the accounts OF
the boys mother, MRS. Madeleine
Force Astor Dick. She reported that
she had expended about SIS day for
the maintenance OF the infant from
the income he is entitled to as an heir
to S3,000,00O.
Sullivan praised Mrs. Dick for her
selt-sacritice in behalf of her son,
whose father died in the wreck of the
Titanic. He calls attention to the
fact tnat
allowance of the surrogate sufficient
to maintain her young son and has
to draw on her own resources.
The court permits her to expend
only $4,000 year from her sons in
come. She finds this sum not enough
and spends some of her own money to
make up the deficit
