T axe Ny Word for 1t
By Fronk Colby

Louisville: If matches are made
in heaven, a few Of my friends are
surely doing a lot of striking! Who
started that old saying?-R. S.
Answer: Although marriage is
held sacred, as it most certainly
should be, many writer's have joked
about it. Even an old Czech prov
erb goes: "A wedding takes only
Ia day or two, but the misery goes
on forever"
Matches are made in heaven" is
the modern version of an old saying
and has been extended in such ex-
pressions as: They make good
match; she is matchmaker
Proverbs" English colloquial say
ings collected by John Haywood and
first printed in 1916, contains the
saying: wedding is destiny, and
hanging likewise" Shakespeare
used this in Merchant of Venice"
Act II, scene 9: 1.-THE ancient say
ing is no heresy-Hanging and
wiving goes by destiny" One of
the first to quote a modern version
of this was John Lyly Q59O: Mar
riages are made in heaven"
Glen Falls:
My friends adjure me constantly:
"You should say, Gid the lily"
And If hint that they msquote,
They tell me am silly.
Shakespeare and Byron-Colby- too
May say the verb Is paint"
But that will never faZe my friends:
They'll still aver lit aint."-D. c.
Answer: ITO gild the lily" is a
misquotation from Shakespeare's
King john: ITO gild refined
gold, to paint the lily is
wasteful and ridiculous excess"
However, ito gild" has come to
mean Ito give a deceptive outward
appearance to; to make attractive,
to adorn."
If the question is one Of quoting
shakespeare correctly. the express
sion should be: ITO paint the lily"

effect this price cut without any
reduction in the quality of our
best-seller fruit cakes" said P.
