For three months Mart Meriden
lived In huf IN the mountains with
cut seeing a soul The mere thought
OF woman bred a nausea in him. aud
he frequently told himself that the
hermits OF the Old Testament had
the right idea OF things after all.
An this would indicate that Meri-
den had collided heaGon with the
subtlenesg Of woman-disastrously
He had. One Dolly Condor, an IN
rocent-eyed blonde, had recently
taught Meriden things about her sex
that his exalted ideas would have
refused at one time to accept. Dolly
was an expert at deceit. Her heart
fed upon the love that she exacted
from her admirers-and she gave
rothing In return.
MerIden vas only one OF the many
moths who had gone before, but he
took the singing Of his own wings
bitterly. His conception Of the other
sex underwent a complete change,
He brooded over his treatment by
this wisp OF a woman who had seen

OF his ideal. and at last the city
with It's constant memories OF her
became unDearable. He went into
