LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT

CARE THE SECRET
DRAWER

I wonder, dear Little Marquise. If
men We're the same in your day that
they are now. From all have read
in the histories and biographies Of
court life and courtiers, 1t seems to
me there were just as many TRACE
dies then as there are today. And al
most all those tragedies were the
tragedies of women.
I just hate Harry Ellington. He
seems to me to be utterly without
honor and utterly without morals. 1
don't believe he cares a solitary thing
about Ruth and yet he makes her life
miserable by criticism of her looks, her
actions and even her thoughts, if they
are expressed where he can hear them.
Yesterday Ruth came to me, weep
ing as though her heart would break.
IT don't believe I can go through it
Leslie" she said. Il think l shall
have to step out of 1t all. Harry has
not been home for three days and
when 1 telephoned to his office this
morning he had the girl tell me-his
wife-that he was too busy TO talk to
me.
When Harry and I were first mar
ried 1 really wOrshiped him. He
seemed so splendid AID so fine, but
I learned very soon that his feet were
clay. I remember early in my mar

ried life I out a bit OF verse from the
papers that seemed to tell the whole
story"
Ruth looked into her pocketbook
and brought out a yellowed and worn
piece Of newspaper and this is what
she read to me:
She crowned him with a laurel
wreath
And gazed into his eyes beneath
To see his soul arise
she laid her trusting head upon his
heart
And hoped that 1t might heal the
smart
OF grief in joys disguise.
She held TO him her supplant hands
And said he always understands
That good within me lies
Blindly she worshiped and adored
And brought TO him her whole great
hoard
OF love that never dies.
She never knew his feet we're clay
Until one sad, heart-breaking day
She dropped her eyes
And found a laughing little maid
Who all unconscious there had
strayed
Making mud pies"
