MARRIAGE,~

By the famous author of

How to les Happy Though Married," tho

REV. E. J. HARDY, MILITARY CHAPLAIN AT Hongkong,

The following Series of Articles on the above are appearing weekly in the Hongkong Daily freax CHOICE IN MARRIAGE.

A young man once said to hischum: "The fortunate girl who gets no mant have throo qualifications she must be handsome, rich, and a fool." "Why all that?” nakol the Crierul, Well, klo mast be luatsome and richt, or else I won ́t have her; she must bò a fant, or else she won't have me.".

PROPOSING.

Many men fand it the hardest thing in the world to propors. - ** A ywgin went one even- Og to the coluge of his beloved. She wai sted by the fire, knitting, & eat at her foel. After a long silence he took the cat on bis krises, and stammered out: Thowy, nak Lizzie if he'll marry mo." Lizzia blushed, hesitated, then said: 'Pruey, you eno tell Jamie f take his ENGAGED.

"Proposing to a girl, which was the ants- feet of our last paper, is easy, indeo quite nice, compared to proposing to her father for her. For fathers find their daughters great resontrees and are not, in this once, ozkioun to use their resourenk,

THE WEDDING and the HONEYMOON.

A parish clock said to the clergyman whe whe adding a homily to the marriage service : Please to cut it short, sir; they've got the cab by the hour."

MARRIED A YEAR,

** The advice drivs gently over the stones,* which is frequently giren to inexperienced whips, may be respectfully suggested to the newly married. The frst ovi ahead which should be marked - dungarons" is the first year of rried life."

LOVING. THOUGH MARRIED.

Shakespere says that men aro April when they woo, and December when they wed," but not a few women enn say of these burbunds what Gurrick's wife said of hers : He never was a husband to no he wan always loner.'
