THE WOMAN IN HELL.

[By Margit Bethlen]

Once upon a time there lived a oman. And then she died. When her friends and acquaintances came back from the burial, they decided, with the most surprising unan- Imity, that the woman was, without the slightest donlit, in hell. And those who had never erred said.

Pour thing!" But those who had sinned, though so long ago that everybody had forgotten it, spoke: "That's right."

And for unce the acquaintances had spoken the truth. The woman really was in hell. First, according to the custom, they had read the story of her life to her. She heard it once more fint during her girl=| hood she had never seen, heard nor met with anything but that which was good, great and noble. Then she married a man she liked and respected, and who adored her.

Notwithstanding all this, she loved another man, and instead of tearing this sinful passion from her heart, she gave way to it, and was unfaithful to her inusband. After having listened to the tale, they. asked her whether it was the truth. And she bowed her head in reply. Then they ked whether it was Just and meet that she should suffer for her sin. And ngaishe bowed her head in silence. So they took her down to hell.

Now, as you know, hell is a place where everybody is punished according to the way in which they have sinned. The man who in his life has been a coldhearted uşurer freezes forever in the iceblocks of his own heart. But those who have sinned because their hearts burned with too bight a fluie, those same flames will burn and torture them in all eternity. "

The woman sat in hell, and in and all about her raged with bright, hot flames the memory of her life, of her sin and of her love. They hurt and burned and tortured her, and she found no peace, not by day and not by night. But one day an angel stood before her. Its great, white wings lightened the dark- ness, it lifted its hand up in blessing and spoke:

God is great, good and power- ful. He has looked into the heart, and has seen that, though thou hast sinned, thou art not bad. Ho has allowed me to fetch thee, hence, from here where thou sufferest; thou mayest come with me to heaven where thou shalt forget every thing, and be happy and at peace!"

The woman fooked up:

"Shall I forget everything? My

sin, and my love?"

The angel smiled a smile of

Love

God's mercy is infinite! Thou

shalt forget everything: thy life,

thy sin; and thy-love."--

And the woman bowed her head

and spoke a 30
