New York, May X.
- NCK upon a time, lha Broadway
gossips say, a New York
woman fell In love with her
husband's heat friend.
Her affection, so the atrange elory
goes, waa not of the excusable type,
but that of a wanton—carnal and
licentious. The man, a handsome,
muscular and well meaning fellow,
had no desire to betray hla pal. He
much preferred lo be true to him, for
they had been comrade* *t lha uni
varalty, sharing each other's sorrows,
aharlng each other's Joy*.
But, although a gymnast, wearing
many athletic Initiate upon hla col
lage sweater, this man waa weak. The
rad of hla blood had a habit of over
corning the white of hla soul. Its waa
rasll.v tempted to th# liaison* sod the

synonym for passion. H first faacln
ates. and than It strikes with fatal
fangs. True to tradition, "Cobra”
proves once mors that It la tha erring

“Cobra” la exciting and founded upon
