pair waz who fust put on the silken
harness, ,aId promise tew work kind
in it,thru thick and thin, up hill and
down and ON the level, ,rain or shine
survive or perish, sink or swim, ,dron
Or float
But whoever the were they must
have made good thing out Of it,
Or SO naeny ov their posterity, woud

in marriage; it IL the mortar that
holds the bricks together.
But there amt but darn few folks
who put ther money in matrimony
who could set down and give good
writin opinion WIKI en- arth they cum
to did it.
Some think it IL CRATE proof that

and are surprised to learn that their
reIashins don' t care a Gus for them

Sum marry they kant tell why,
and liv, they kant tell how.
Almost everybody gifts married,
and it il a good joke.

Every boldly lusts tew phool with
the chances, bekause every boldly
expects tew win. But am author
lied tew state that every body don't

But after all, married life is full az
certain az the dry goods business.
