Myfheart beat faster as Tread it n
Mollie's letter.
Ishaves loved dear MollieEeyer since
thetmorntng stNat.I met her.. She was
never one OF those impossible girls
you read about who never, by any
Possibility can even think, ;let alone
do anything the least bit wrong.
Why is it,, little book, that most OF
use are disappointed II we find the
slightest flaw In the character Of our
Afrineds? We want them perfect.

who never had a temptation to resist
or aweakness to overcome. What
hayestold you could be called lust sill
e Of life. Some sweet with the su-
garEof love sandfth tpiums of pleasure,

ents were badly mixed.
