AN OLD. OLD STORY.
BY EDWIN A. NYE..
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nye.

AN OLD. OLD STORY.
A few weeks ago a very handsome
st. Louis woman left a good husband
because she was ''tired of him" and ran
away with a rake.
The expected happened.
The rake got tired of the woman.
He had not taken her away fEom her
husband because he loved ner. He
merely wanted to prove his Satanic
ability in dominating the woman. She
was handsome and appealed to his
lustful senses.
One day the rake showed his true
self. He intimated to the woman that
she was smart enough to sell herself
and live without his aid. Made desper-
ate by the suggestion and the discov-
cry Of her paramour's real character,
the woman shot the brute and killed
him.
The whole miserable business was
the logical outcome of things.
The woman invited retributive JUS
tice, and SO did the man.
When the woman left faithful hus-
band, lured by the tempter, she cut her
self of from happiness. 1t could not
be otherwise. Doubtless she was too
proud to crawl back and beg the for
giveness of the man she had deserted.
And she lived in the scorn of the man
who had done with her what he would.
All of which was sufficient to drive the
poor woman to madness.
And as for the man
His achievement in taking the de-
ceived wife from the side of her hus-
band was small satisfaction. The task
was too easy to gloat over. And when
the silly woman realized his supreme
meanness he got-so we say in street
hraseology-'just what was coming
to him"
A real man, you say, would have
stayed by the woman to the bitter end.
But real men are seldom engaged in
the business Of stealing other mems
wives.
The story is a typical one. It is the
lifting of the curtain on the age long
tragedy entitled 1.-The Soul That Sinneth
1t Shall Die" The translators of the
old Anglo-Saxon Bible got the right
word when they laid down the moral
law. They did not say, The soul that
sinneth may debut SHALL die.
The play does not always end in mur-
der, as in this ST. Louis case, but IL
never ends happily. And the reason
for it is this: You cannot kill a soul
without taking a life.

S0X WINS FROM YANKs.

New York, May 21.-Fielder Jones
led the White Sox in victorious as
sault on the Yankees this afternoon at
Washington Heights and pulled the
leaders down a peg in the percentage
column. The score of 9 to 2 was so
one-sided that 1T looks as if the Yam
KEGS were never in the running, but
the tally sheet is misleading, for the
defeated team out-batted the visitors
nearly to 1 up to the last round
But their hits came at times that didn't
count, while the Sox were able to get
run on any old kind of a hit.
