Marriage is gradual, a frucliun «>f us at a time, A 1 apj.y wedlock is a long.falling in love, I know y ting persons think love only h* longs to brown hair and plump, round crimson cccks. So it and cs for its be ginning, just a« Ml. Washington begins at Boston Bay. But the golden mar riage is a part of lore which the bridal (t»v knows nothing of.
