The marriage of Corey, the steel
corporation president, and Miss
Mabel Gilman, the actress. is a tray
esty upon decency. Corey was a
poor young man, and married a Door
girl, his equal in every thing and SUI
perior in many. During their DAYS
OF trial and poverty his young wife
always loyal and true, worked hard
to help him. He became rich. rich
by accident, a multi-millionaire. He
then became tired of the wife of his
youth, she who had stood by him in
sunshine and storm. She was too
plain for him, could not shine as he
desired with the other wives of the
new rich. He then. for no reason
under heaven, threw her off, discard.
ed her Tor the actress, forced her 10
get divorce. The whole thing is
nauseating, disgusting, and. mark
the prediction, there may be show.
glare and glitter in this new mar.
rage, but there can not be. and will
not be, real genuine happiness. The
world, the gay andgiddy world. may
Halter and fawn, but the God of all
Righteousness and all justice will at
some time and in some way lay His
heavy hand upon this man. In this
world he will suffer for his perfidy,
his treachery, his disloyalty to a
pure, loving and loyal wife, who
gave her young life to this man. who
has demonstrated he is unworthy oil
it and OF her.
