THE TANGLE LETTER FROM SALLY ATHER TON TO BEATRICE SUMMERS, CONTINUED Do you know. Bee, I am almost wicked enough to be glad that Jack Prescott has felt some of the pangs of Jealousy that he has Inflicted upon every woman who has ever loved him.

But I do hope that Leslie will not find out after all that the great strength of her affection has been given to some one other than her husband, for that would only bring her great unhapplness, even though he were a better man than John Prescott. At this time, however, I am sure that all her great thrills eame from the fact that she was able to dance so perfectly, "Do you know. Sally," she confided to me, "that while I was dancing last night I almost believed that the great Joy of life lay In physical motion. Its rhythm, its conscious grace, seemed happiness enough. I do not wonder that all people from the Aborlglnies to the most sophisticated modern take pleasure some kind of a dance, and that they make It express" their emotions of pleasure and pain." I have written you, dear Bee, at great length about Leslie, for I am very much interested In what has happened to.

her. However, I wonder if I have ever spoken to you In my letters, of the young girl that Lesll took Into her home at the request of Ruth Burke as a kind of nursery governess for her son. I'm sure I told it to you. At the time, I reproached myself for thinking that possibly this girl might have some of the taint of her brother, who as we all know made the life of Ruth Burke a perfect hell as long as he was her husband. My first impression, however, of Zoe Ellington was very good.

She is exceedingly lovely to look at, and she has brains. Since that first meeting, however, when I was quite curious about her, I have seen her only once or twice. But the night of the party I got another impression of her. I am not so sure about her sincerity or I cannot definitely lay my haad on anything that she did. but there seemed to be some sort of an understanding between her and Mr.

Pres cott. She Is Intensely amusing to hint, in fact she lays herself out to amuse htm. Hs only danced with her and his wife during the entire evening. I am rather ashamed to tell yeu this. Bee, because I noticed that Melville Sartorls, and even Sydney Carton seemed much taken with the girl.

She evidently has all her brother's magnetism. Whether shs Is using It consciously, as did her brother, to gain her own ends, or unconsciously with the Irresponsibility of youth and a desire 'o please, I do not know, but If you ean in a general way write something to Leslie that will make her stop, look and listen, I think you will be doing her a great favor. I aim, glad I am going to see you so soon. Then we will have one of our old fashioned talk fests. I have a few problems of my own to put up to you.

Your advice Is always so sane. Regards to Dick, Lovingly SALLY. (Copyright. 1925, NEA Service. Inc.) Tomorrow Latter from John Al den Prescott to Sydney Carton.
