Refuse anything else Iftered (Advt.) ably did not know that in the valley of the shadow »he had been transformed from a simple little country girl, with more dimples than mind, to a teacher of some great and awful truths. But no one can read those last words, "1 never want to lay my eyes on Tan Cleghorn again; he has wrecked tny life and 1 want him to reap his just reward," without the thought that per haps the price she has paid, terrible as it is. may serve a purpose like that which Ims come down through the ages from Mount Calvary. The Belle of Amboy was probably just an ordinary country lass, endowed, It is likely, with more attractiveness than brains, with the same thoughts, the same Impulses, the same passions of the rest of the maids of her type. Her temptations were probably no more alluring than those that beset the com mon run of rural maid amt the mis ery that followed was just the misery : that is suffered by hundreds of poor, ' weak women each year. Hut there was a difference. Death came and called attention to her case. The scores of others similarly betrayed have to live through a thousand deaths. Death is a wonderful thing. It is as wonderful as it Is unknown. It has powers unpossessed by any human en ergy in its silent entity. Not until the very shadow of the electric chair cast its awful reflection in the cell of the doomed Henry Clay Beattie did he re volt against going to the grave with the lie, protesting his innocence, on his lips. Not until ill hope had glimmered away did th. murderous preacher, Richeson, once mori . ee his God and confess hfs crime. And not until the fingers of the Grim Reape. had pressed in clammy contact around her heart did this little Georgia girl find courage to denounce the man who had ruined her, and by so doing renounce his love. City and Country Perils. It was an old. old story, except for the tragic denotement of the suspicion of poison. The poisoning lias little or nothing to do with it, save that if its trace is found it may allow the law to avenge the girl and punish the man whose crime is already black. She had loved him. She loved him i probably until the very moment when she at lest realined that earthly hope, was gone and she would have to an- i j suer to a Creator, Who, she had been I taught before she had known of mortal ■ lov , was all love, all forgiving. It’s rathe: a shock to some that thia! condition came to pass in the country. | It’s hardly in keeping with the words I of moralists, who have for years I dwelled on the iniquities of the city as j against the snov.-white purity of the rural districts. But to my mind I think our city girls are far more safe from a fate like that which tl.e Amboy Belle met than her slater of the country. In the first place. , as carefulI.', 1 .', as we <an guard our girls ot the cits. tiny Enon' more of the dan gers that lurk lor a maiden with pretty face and ttractive form than the ru ral lass. she Is less likely to pay se rious attentions to the blandishments of'men. She is far better able to pro test herself. And, then, her life where there are varied aniusemenia will naturally pre i vent her from centering her entire be iflig on this one iiian. A city girl can love just is well, but is likely to love more wisely than the sweetheart of the ineadoivr. How this little Amboy Belle's being must have been devoted lo ‘'leghorn! I She was not without suitors. There [are always plenty of them in the coun try for a pretty miss. There are rare |ly 'iiough pretty girls to go around in ru"al communities. But still she put them all out of her life for this man, I listened to h's promb of marriage. , believed in him still even though he had I oylje T.isappolnted her when she sup ipOßid the ceremony would take place. . ‘S ic continued to believe in him un til di ai i beckoned. But tlu‘l*» is still a sweetness in the Stor.i. ami as long as heart beats in (•response to heart, ’here will be tears jslied for .he mother, taking In her arms (he dying girl, whispering to her those f words of comfort, forgiveness and line I tint probably lighted her way Into u i better world. Who knows? Dr Funke Works Late on Tests ■ Dr. John Funke, the expert chemist to whom the girl's stomach was sent for examination, continued his analysis until 1 o'clock this morning and re newed his investigation early today. He said he was making progress, but declined to give any statement relative to what he had found in the stomach. An examination for poison requires several days of experiments, and it Is not likely anything positive can be shown until Monda.i at the earliest, QUARTET TO APPEAR AS NEXT ALKAHEST NUMBER The Beulah Buck quartet, making a tour of tin South this fall under the direction of the Alkahest Lyceum Sys tem, will appear in the rnai ii in .a Wednesday evening, Novem ber 20, as the tenth number on the Al kahest Lyceum course. ».
