n YOUNG woman mas confessed
~ 70 the killing OF her husband
by throwing acid IN his face.
She said she thought she would spoil
his good looks and thus keep him with
her. This is her plea--her great love
for him led her TO do this IN. order
that he might not attract other
women.
Her act has already caused her I'M
told suffering and she is yet to endure
her trial for the murder.
The story is a sad one and yet Il has
q great lesson / do not believe one

passion--fSr spite How could any ono
keep the love OF a person whom she
or he he'd tried 10 inJure9
OF all such cases we hear about there
Is not one that can be justified on tho
plea OF love only. For example, had

disfigured for life, how could she pos
Ebly have retained his love as a no.

Every time ne looked at himself in
the glass no would have realized that
the cause of his misfortune was the
person who supposedly loved him
most.

IN love with the sweetheart OF her
best gird friend. In order 10 win him
away she lied about tho other girl 1t
was the kind of thing that had
the sembiance Of truth and was not
readily proved.
in this case the young man instead
OF turning 10 this girl for sympathy
actually learned to dislike her for tell
ing him about the girl for whom he
cared so much.
He left the town in which they
lived. II was not until years after
that he learned the truth.
The girl who told the falsehood
during these years suffered for her
epitefiI statements and she was a
most unhappy person tho balance ~
her life.
E She lived TO see the other two really
happy and she was shut out OF their
lives forever.
know q man who, in order TO
keep a friend of his from going into
a promising partnership. told some
OF his friends faults to the prospec-
tive partner; in fact, he magnified
them, and TO such an extent that the
partnership did not materialize.
He afterward \said the reason OF
his act was that Me loved his friend
so much he couldn't bear TO see him
leave and get into new associations;
also that he might perhaps lose his
comradeship. He lost his friend as
a consequence, and his own self-re-
Bpect.
All OF these so-called acts of love
are selfish at best. The thing you
love you never will injure, no mat
ter how little tt cost.
It is because somewhere, somehow
a spirit OF spite has entered and taken
the pace OF love-
The greatest proof OF love is 10
give II up rather than 10 give II pain.
True love seeks to defend rather
than destroy.
