Yes, "South Side," old "Speck"
got a chance to spread herself and
she did it. Speck was faithful
old hen. Her duty was before her
and she didn't back down. Some
thing had to spread and SO she
spread herself. We wouldn't think
of raising a fuss with old Speck
The circumstance you mention
about the young lady who mar
ried a man who drank, against the
advice of parents, whose husband
sank into the pit of gambling and
drunkenness, and who was denied
a divorce by the courts, is really
lamentable when looked upon from
one side, and not 80 bad when
looked at from the other side.
When misfortune's blighting hand
falls with merciless stroke upon
man or woman We cannot behold
the scene with else than pity. Had
reason held sway over blind i'm
pulses, she might have engaged
herself for q year with the under
standing that he should give up
drink or her. That would have
been fair to both parties. But love
is ever blind, and she made a fatal
mistake. Yet when she made it,
J had love been true to its mission,
she would have gohe down into the
midnight blackness of perdition
clinging tenderly to the torn gar
, ments of her fallen idol and there
amid the poisonous flames in which
devils hold high carnival true love
, would have let fall the crimson cur
tains of lingering farewell; in
, stead she goes to the courts and
asks permission to abandon him
upon whom her noblest, greatest
, gift has been bestowed, and the
, court justly refused to grant it.
, In that particular instance mar
and woman both lost. Let us find
another instance: Not many years
I. ago in this county there lived &
! young man whose habits were vic
! ious IN the extreme. He was almOs
a common drunkard, but he wal
good-hearted, true to his friends
: and possessed many manly quail
9 tiles which people could never SCI
: because he drank. One day he me
a true, good, sensible woman an(
:. married her with the promise t
: reform. You can't find happie
!, couple anywhere today, nor cal
t you find . steadier man.
