IS POOR BARGAIN
Foolish indeed for Man to Sell
Himself to LyiI.
Many Have Done It -UneonsclousIy.
and Their Reward Has Always
Been Exceedingly Small.

More than one writer has been fas-
cinaIed by the idea OF selling ones
soul to the DEVIL Indeed. that thought
has served as the basis OF many
poem and plot.
The Idea Is that of man bargaining
bis soul to Satan for all eternity On
condition that for limited period he
may enjoy all possible pleasure. The
thought Is most familiar, perhaps, in
the tragedy Of Faust but that was
neither the beginning nor the end of IL.
You may find the idea in the Ara
bian Nights, and 40 one knows how
old those roots of the literature may be.

exploitation of the Idea of a bargain
with the devil. either In the opera OF
Faust or in novel or In the movies.
II is the plain lesson at the end that
the sort of bargain which the devil Of

But there is one mistake which men
often make with regard to this mat
ter, which Is In supposing that this
Is the real way In which the thing Is
done.
As a matter of fact, men sell them
selves unconsciously and for very
much less than the devil Is. supposed
to offer in any Of these works of tic-
ton.
