TO-DAY'S QUOTATIONS
The following is the list of local for-sharo quotations issued to-day:
Banks.
Marriage is often A tragedy, however viewed, a touching tribute, If you will, to the limitlesiness of human credulity; and looking back on the vast visit of History but little is seen save an impenetrable kloom with only here and there a Tow
raya of light endeavouring feebly to pierce the Cimmerian darkness which no known alchemy can dispel. But History, you may {demur, is too wide a canvas, no let us narrow the landscape and bring the subject of marriage into our own lives. Si mogumentum quiris, cireumapice.
TC-
Which of my many friends-und I am fortunate in my friends have not told me at one time or anather of their trials and tribula- tions, of the mortal coils that have enteshed them since that fatal day -fronically enough, O festna dirs!
when they took the plunge which for ever was to wash unhappiness way? Truly their name is legion, but I will content myself with a typical case to point the moral and adorn the tale. They are
both getting old now, though his wife thinks James carries his years well Lenough, better, it need not be said, than I do. But James knows other- wise, and unburdened himself to me one night when a session at the Clubs had loosened our tongues) on the mixed blessings of the mar ried state. "The miss," he said suecinelly, with that tinge-or it Įmag be twinge-of dialect which I always think adds such poignancy to melancholy, and that far-away look of deep sorrow that I have observed in some captive birds, "The missus is ortright, ole me-an, batį {yer simperiy darnow what I 'as to! put up with sometimes-yer reely down't. Goo-nigh, ole mean, gen nigh!"
Poor James, I thought, as I reach- ed my
own place shortly atfer
wards to be greeted by my wo dogs as though they hadn't seen me ! for years, poor Janies, I thought— with his dream of domus placena nema, and the reality!
