Devil — Yes, to be sure; and let me whisper a secret. A woman of your good looks could have such a man as that for a husband if she wanted him. Wife — Nonsense ! Devil — It is true — I'll swear it. How would you like to have him for a husband? Wife — I already have a husband. Devil — Yes, but why not get a better one ? Wife— I couldn't do that. Devil— My dear madam, in this part of the country any woman who wants another husband can get a divorce. You start a rumpus and get your husband to carr...y it on — any woman knows how to do that. A \6 THE DEMON AND THE small rumpus is all that is necessary; and then you en- gage some good lawyer like me. I present your case to the judge, and show him how your husband has abused you, slighted your affections, and injured your feelings, and that you can not live happily with him any longer. You put on your nicest dress and sweetest smile, or look poorly dressed and feeble (either one) — the judge sympathizes with you — you get your divorce, and then you are free.
