Show Mad Her I.ov Letter Photofrahhed. Chicago Hail. "I had an experience the other day which has interested me more than anything of a similar nature which has happened to me in all my business experience. ex-perience. A young lady who moves in the best society brought me three letters let-ters and I photographed them for her, and at her request destroyed the negatives. nega-tives. The letters were the most tender ten-der and ardent love missives imaginable. imagina-ble. They were addressed to the young lady herself, and were signed by a name which 1 am sure.you would recognize rec-ognize iustantly were I to mention it. I will confess that curiosity got the better of my judgment and I finally said: " 'You'll pardon mo, but this job is a little unusual, isn't itV " 'Is it?' she said smiling. " 'It strikes me so.' f replied. 'I don't see why you want photographs of these letters, since you have the letters themselves.' "'Don't you? Well. I do. Suppose the letters were to be lost, or burned, or destroyed in some other way?' " ,Wouldn't the photographs be destroyed de-stroyed just as easily as the lettersr' " Perhaps not; especially if they were not kept in tho same place with letters' But I am not afraid of losing them by tire, or in any such way as that. The fact is, the ink is fading out. and in a short time it is likely to be illegible." "There is a girl for you who doesn't propose to take any risk in the breach of promise business." |
