She was not over eighteen yet her tired blue eyes and pale, drawn face made her look much older. There were other women there too women with red smeared lips and black smeared, tragic eyes that were wise with the worldy wisdom of a million years. In the same dingy room sat the Reverend James McDonald and his bride who had come to see at first hand some of the sin he denounced so roundly from the pulpit. Presently the girl rose and departed by the street door unaware that the young minister and his wife had risen and followed her. As she entered the street, a man lurched out of the shadows and grabbed her by the arm. She shrank from him, and tried to break his grasp. The brute only laughed harshly and tightened his grip, while he thrust his evil face close to hers and snarled a vicious command. But at that moment, a tall form loomed at his shoulder, and he found himself spinning on his heels with a force that nearly took him oif his feet. The next instant, his head jerked back under the stinging impact of a blow driven straight to the jaw and he went sprawling on his back in the gutter. Thus begins the pitiful story of "Peg" a story to wring the heart with the pathos, the anguish, the sorrow of it. It is the story of a girl who was driv en by circumstances to do a dreadful thing, and who dedicated her life to undoing it, in so far as a crime against God and man can be undone.

Other Gripping Stories in the May Issue Are: "Her Narrow Escape" When he dragged her from the path of a speeding taxi and then asked permission to accompany her to the movies, it did not occur to her that taking up with a casua granger might have its dangers. Nor could she foresee where an innocent ride in a taxi afterwards might lead. But the gay adventure had a terrible sequel. There is a warning in this story that every girl should heed. "Other Women's Husbands" Can a girl steal another woman's husband and be happy? Lois tried it. In this startling story she tells frankly how she went about it to achieve her ends -r-and its amazing out' come. A story that every wife, and every foolish girl who thinks herself in love with a married man, should read. No soldier in the trenches, no mar tyr at the stake, ever acted a more heroic part in life than little Peggy.
