Love and Marriage in China
Isn't it too bad that In China eny
never falls in love and marries
was asked a Chinese woman uf high
class. No." she said. In China,
one marries and falls in love" Just
the opposite of the custom in Amer
ica, and would seem to mean that
love in China is but a matter Of
chance. Bat the Chinese woman said
that "iove is a matter of fact in her
countTy. When asked if the Chinese
women always fall in love with their
husbands she replied "Of course; |
rovod my husband the minute saw
him. ''But your husband is fine
mas' her interrogation said. But
suppose it hadn't been him but some
ono else. would YOU have loved him ?"
And hear the answer: To love the
husband my parents chose fer nc |
certainly should have done, for that
is NY duty. But, you see. they didn't
choose anyone for my husband but
Tie man could love. Every man
snd woman who ought to marry ale
tied together by an invisible red
string. Parents choose. but Fate di-
rests the choice. Marriages are made
