that while he was fond of her

other woman, she must not under
any circumstances, touch any Of
the fruit on that particular stand
at which she pilfered the apple

Eve promised, but within the
hour she met John W. Rather,
who told her that he had Just
been talking with neighbor and
that he had learned that apples
were thinning-that one stout
matron had taken off twenty
pounds by means of an apple diet
and within another hour Eve
was back at the apple stand Just
gorging herself.
The trial was short-lived and
sensational. Eve and John w.
