Morris Marcus’ specialty is plumbers. He was arraigned in court Thursday charged with his ninth plumbing shop burglary. "Twenty years ago,” Marcus ex plained, "I was a peaceful law abiding citizen. The one day a plumber did a little job for me — repaired a leak in the bathroom. When 1 saw his bill my whole outlook was changed. If a plumber cun rob me and get away with it. I can rob him, I said. I've been doing it ever since. If I get sent up for this job, , 1 will try another as soon as I get out. "The dam junk, lead pipes and all, ain’t worth the trouble to cart away, but I just hate plumbers.” Marcus last term for burglary was five years in Sing Sing.

The Tangle LETTER FROM LESLIE PRESCOTT TO THE LITTLE MARQUISE. CARE THE SECRET DRAWER. CONTINUED. Besides, I think, Little Marquise, that 1 have made John feel that 1 am too utterly devoted to him. T noticed the other night when I danced with Melville Sartorls he seemed quite as surprised as disgruntled. His way of describing the episode to Sydney Carton was really funny. 1 laughed over it heartily even when my heart, was aching a little. In that letter he told me more than he told Sydney, for 1 read betwaen the lines that lie expected me to be devoted to him and a wallflower except when lie himself danced with me or obtained partners for me. In fact, you rnay not believe it, little Marquise, but 1 smiled all through Jack's letter. It was so like him. Someone has said that laughter is the weeping ot the soul which is, I suppose, only another way of saying that true humor is dangerously near to tears. 1 told this to Ruth the other day and she said that to her, laughter at times was only the soul weeping over its lost illusions and we poor beings ktiew that if we did not laugh, we too would also cry. 1 w'onder if Syd will tell Jack that lie sent his letter lo me. 1 hope he will not. It would embarrass me to know that my husband knew I had seen ome part of his inner consciousness that for some untold reason he had never shown to me. I am very glad he sent it to me, however, for taken in conjunction with what Paula Perler told me of what she had learned of men, I feel as though sometimes I am “implaccahly unforgiving.” I can’t quite swallow my pride yet and let Jack see that I do want to forgive and forget and start from that Land-of-Beginning Again that he is always talking about. After ail. Jack is my husband. I am his wife and 't is a silly notion that I have that we should set up such a hypocritical performance as liv'.ng in the same house and pretending to the world that we are huslxind and wife, while all the while I have erected a barrier between us so high and so impenetrable that neither of us can surmount k. Now, 1 am going to inaugurate a new plan which l think will meet with your approval. For some reason I have always thought that you were a bit of a flirt. Little Marquise, and that you kept your kingly lover by not seeming too anxious to keep him. Here is the plan: I am going to be as gay as possible and I am going to flirt a little. I know that Mr. Bartoris is interested in me—every woman knows when a man likes her even if he does not tell her—so. with malice aforethought, I am going to flirt with him a little. 1 wish, instead of being long years dead, you were here at my elbow' and could icll me what you think of my plan.

Martha Lee Say a OVER-CONFIDENCE MAY LOSE MAN WIFE’S LOVE

The letters that come to my desk day after day contain stories out of life as gripping as any novel or play. One in particular has come to me with a plot made to order.

It is the eternal triangle—the wife, husband and man friend. The friend, a handsome, wealthy bachelor, was blinded and his face was marred a year ago in a fire in which he saved the life of the woman. Since then she has visited him often. She knew he loved her. Her husband knew it, too. The inevitabl?, foreseen by the womin, happened. She fell in love with the blind man. She had tried to prevent this by begging her husband to accompany her on her visits. But he, sure she never could love another man, had laughed at her fears. How will It end? She does not know. Neither do I. But I do know that her husband was blind, too. He gave her the protection of his home and his name, but he failed to give her the protection she needed to guard that home and name. Perhaps they may yet be preserved, but it will be in spite of, not because of, the husband. Fighting Against Love Dear Martha Lee: About a year ago I wrote telling you I was a married woman 25 yearn old. My husband and X had been very happy together. Some time before I had met a very wealthy and handsome bachelor about 38 years old. Then came a terrible fire. He saved my life,, but a burning timber foil across his face mutilating it and leaving him blind While I wan at the hospital with his mother, 1 discovered his treat love for me. He was delirious, but his mother said it was true. After several weeks he went home a helpless, hopeless Invalid. His mother beared me to come often to see him. As I always liked him and treat I y admired him 1 was afraid seeing- him in that condition would cause me to care for him. t wrote to you then. Tou said it would be saf'T if my husband would accompany mo when I visited this man. •My husband Is several years younger than this man, and very good looking He is one of those light-hearted, good-natured men. I asked him to go with me. and he lightly refused. f begged him. and he laughed good-humoredly Several times be did go, but after that he would take me and then go to the club.

you say, the natural outcome of your pity. The situation was a romantic one. It may be that the romance. and not real love, is what is troubling you now. Whether that is true or not, there are many angles to consider. Your husband loves you and needs you. And if you should be mistaken in thinking you love this other man, and should break up your home to nmrry him, you would plunge all three of you Into greater unhappiness than that you feel now. There is a great deal of difference between visiting an invalid and giving to him of pity and tenderness occasionally, and administering to him hour after hour, while you are yet young and cannot help longing sometimes for gayety. You might spoil the beauty of your friendship, instead of enhancing it. But don’t try to make this fight alone. Tell your husband and ask him to help you. Together, you must work out the solution to your problem. An outsider, such as I, can give suggestions, but cannot solve the problem.
