Put Him Into the Well.

The Frenchwoman as a vengeance taker
is the most conspicuous success known to
modern civilization. 1t was she that in.
vented vitriOl throwing. and she invents a
new method of punishment for faithless
men whenever she get a chance. A peas
ant girl near Paris was deserted by
her lover, and he was rash enough
to call on her some time afterward.
He found her washing clothes in a
garden near shallow well. They leaned
over the edge of the we'll and chatted, and
she, as if accidentally dropped a cloth
into the water. He leaned over to reach
it and pull out for her and she took him
by the feet and threw him in head first.
He couldn't get out unaided. and she told
him she would pull him out if he promised
to marry her. He did so, and she made
him keep his word, though when once out
again he was very unwilling to do so.
