THE PERFECT MARRIAGE.
Pamela, Billie, and Ivy, for instance. vo.va three charming girls, but though ne confessed to feeling slightly in love with all of them, he felt he knew surprisingly little about them. He Viol studied their features, and the they danced and did their hair, "but their real selves were as much a mystery to him as Abe Sherlock's method of playing a eleek shot against ™ wind. -Ho had read in books thnt ■the a: Jid test of marriaas was the daily meeting of Imsbr^id and wife at the
breakfast table. He quite agreed that if a man felt like breakfasting with a woman for better or for worse, in sickness or. in health, for the rest of ,his life, then he might safely ask her to marry him. But the more he thought about it the ,more certain he was that if Adam could play goJf with the Eye of his choice for pleasure or for pain, in bunkers and in gorse, till death did them part, without ever wishing to hit her on the head with a niblick, or play golf with anybody else, then indeed would dawn the millennium of the perfect marirage.—lt. S. Hooper's "Where There's a -Will," in Printer's Pie.
