him"
They say, my dear, he has never
put his money to any but his own
selfish use; that he has an idea he
can buy anything he wants in this
world, including a mans honesty and
a woman's honor"
We'll, he almost says that about
himself" l said. only the other
day he told me until he had known
Eiene and Mary and you and me he
had never known there were such
women in the world. He said he had
always regarded a woman as some
thing a man owned and made his
plaything or his slave. We, he said,

"And did this happen to Malcolm

yes, his mother left him and his
father under the most distressing
circumstances when Malcolm was
about six years old"
Poor Malcolm! 1 thought, after
the experiences he has had with his
mother and the woman he married
one cannot blame him for being
rather skeptical on the merits and
