[t is all
times
the Forbidden
that is the sweeiest,
the
most
longed for: also
1n this
case
:
\
iSIORY.
To
countrybred
Frederick
Worthington,
rich
in
¢verything
but
happiness,
had
come
a time when
city hfe
was
as dust
in
his
mouth,
and
to
Maddy Irvins, also
coun-~
trybred,
had
come
a time
when
the
1(»11ggn;z‘ for city-life and gaity blinded
her to every
other blessing;
imagine
now these
twe beings
married and you have the inevitable result,
a couple,
with each
oi
the pariners
pulling their own
way,
the husband
making
every
effort
to keep
his
young
wife away from
dem_uralizing
city-gaity and
the wife
being
like the Pandora
of the legend,
whose
every
wish
was granted
but
one,
she
was
never
to
open
a
certain
box in her husband’s
house,
iess
all
the
evils of the world
wer:2
let
loose
on them.
Maddy had also
her box,
which
she
was not
to open,
and
which
she,
as
the
true daughter
of Eve,
of course
DID open.
I[f you have
ncver
been
in the
famous
“*Chinatown’’ in
New York you will
here
have
an exceptional
good opportunity
to be acquainted
with the life and
gaity there.
