No stage adventuress can be good while the heroine is about. The sight of the heroine rouses every bad feeling in her breast. We can sympathize with her in this respect. The heroine often affects ourselves in precisely the same way. NO STAGE ADVENTURESS CAN BE GOOD WHILE THE HEROINE IS ABOUT THE SIGHT OF THE HEROINE ROUGES EVERY BAD FEELING IN HER BREAST WE CAN SYMPATHIZE WITH HER IN THIS RESPECT THE HEROINE OFTEN AFFECTS OURSELVES IN PRECISELY THE SAME WAY
pentance on the stage seems to be one of the most dangerous things a man can be taken with. Our advice to stage wicked people would undoubtedly be, "Never repent. If you value your life, don't repent. It always means sudden death!" To return to our adventuress. She is by no means a bad woman. There is much good in her. This is more than proved by the fact that she learns to love the hero before she dies; for no one but a really good woman capable of extraordinary patience and gentleness could ever, we are convinced, grow to feel any other sentiment for that irritating ass, than a desire to throw bricks at him. The stage adventuress would be a much better woman, too, if it were not for the heroine. The adventuress makes the most complete arrangements for being noble and self-sacrificing--that is, for going away and never coming back, and is just about to carry them out, when the heroine, who has a perfect genius for being in the wrong place at the right time, comes in and spoils it all. THEY REPENT THEY DIE REPENTANCE ON THE STAGE SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS THINGS A MAN CAN EVER BE TAKEN WITH OUR ADVICE TO WICKED PEOPLE COULD UNDOUBTEDLY BE NEVER REPENT IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE DON'T REPENT IT ALWAYS MEANS SUDDEN DEATH TO RETURN TO OUR ADVENTURESS SHE IS BY NO MEANS A BAD WOMAN THERE IS MUCH GOOD ENOUGH THIS IS MORE THAN PROVED BY THE FACT THAT SHE LEARNS TO LOVE THE HERO BEFORE SHE DIES FOR NO ONE BUT A REALLY GOOD WOMAN CAPABLE OF EXTRAORDINARY PATIENCE AND GENTLENESS COULD EVER AS WE ARE CONVINCED GROW TO FEEL ANY OTHER SENTIMENT FOR THE IRRITATING US THAN A DESIRE TO THROW BRICKS AT HIM THE STAGE ADVENTURESS WOULD BE A MUCH BETTER WOMAN TOO IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE HEROINE THE ADVENTURESS MAKES THE MOST COMPLETE ARRANGEMENTS FOR BEING NOBLE AND SELF SACRIFICING THAT IS FOR GOING AWAY AND NEVER COMING BACK AND IT IS JUST ABOUT TO CARRY THEM OUT WHEN THE HEROINE WHO HAS A PERFECT GENIUS FOR BEING IN THE WRONG PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME COMES IN AND SPOILS IT ALL
