MARRIAGE “FAIRY TALES.”
Once upon a time a husband remembered to post his wife’s letter. There was once a wife who refused a new dress because she thought her husband couldn’t afford it. “I’m very fond of your mother,” said Mr. Jones to Mrs. Jones, “let’s ask her to go away with us this year?” Once upon a time a modern girl with money married a poor man and let the “obey” clause in the marriage service stand. There was once a husband who got the early morning tea every day without a single grumble. Once upon a time a woman was ready to go out before her husband. “I shall be home early,” said the clubman to his wife. He was! “Sheis much better looking than I could ever hope to be,” said Mrs. Brown to her husband after being introduced to one of his old flames. “Here’s the change from the ten shilling note you gave me to buy some socks,” said Mrs. Robinson to her husband. “We are very happy together,” declared the film actress at a party given to celebrate her tenth wedding anniversary. “I don’t believe in divorce.”
