A Little Devil in the Heart.

An 4nsane devjh lurks in the heart of even the most sainted woman. It is the little devil that makes a young wife ask her devoted husband which of the two he would save If she and her mother were drowning, writes William J. Locke in his storv “Simple Septimus,” in the American Magazine. It Is the same little devil that Is respolslble for Infinite mendacity on the part of men. "Have you said that to another woman?!’ No; of course he hadn’t, and the wretch Is Instantly perjured. “My Immortal soul,” says the good fellow, Instantaneously converted into an atrocious liar; and the little devil cooes with satisfaction and Curls himself up snugly to sleep. x
