We suppose Miss Maekay, by marriage to
a prince, becomes a princess. The one had
wealth and the other n title. mother of
which they have ever done anything to earn
for themselves. The marriage is a trade in
which both are as likely to be cheated as to
make a winning. Wealth and title are both
unsatisfying TO a sensible. well-balaaced
mind. and still more so to a large, generou',
hungry heart We should have thought
more OF Miss Mackay IL she had married
somc American OF character and ability,
rather one known chiefly for his name. Or
10 She would have married some poor young
foreign artist Of drst-rato ability we should
have thought her choice more sensible aud
hor futurs more likely to be happy.
