Now, Pat, what do you mean by
that? l want to make it completely
understood in my story that a wom-
ans past belongs to herself alone;
that she can keep it hidden or bring
it forth and exhibit it as she wishes.
Do you mean to tell me that if you
we're going to marry a woman you
would feel called upon to tell her all
the hidden rOmances of your life, not
only your sins, but all your little fool
ish mistakes? Rather would you not
close your book of life at the point
where you met her and seal it's pages,
saying to yourself, From now on my
life belongs to her; the past is
ended"
Pat thought a minute and then, be-
ing particularly honest, said, 81 guess
you are right, MaTgie, but any man
would hate to think that the woman
he asks to be his wife has done any
thing that would allow any man,
woman or child in the universe to
point to her with the finger of scorn."
THAT is just stab at your pride,
your egOtism, my dear Pat, but it
ought not to affect your love-"
Pat thought a minute and then
said, We'll, it will be long while be-
fore we get to that part of your story
and we can talk it over more than
once and so get the right psychology
of the matter. What is the next cpl
sode?"
well, you see, Pat, it will depend
on whether the man is ready to for
give or not, for in the case l have
cited the girl will almost have to con-
fess or live in torture all the time for
fear Of being found out
What would a man do if the girl
he loved told him this story"
