on tine floor and the preacher proceeded
with his work, asking the groom if lie
would take this woman to be his welded
wife and before anything more was
said by the preacher, the happy groom
exclaimed: "l will in the COOL" The
question was then asked the blushing
bride if she would take this man to be
her welded husband to which she in
Stautly answered, You bet will" The
preacher Immediately pronounced them
man and wife, and retired from the
room to indulge i'll hearty laugh.

solemn questions before We think

thing that will compare with these
novel answers we would be glad to
have them, for we think all good things
should be preserved.
