Misery Loves Company.

“George, dear,” said Mabel, as they sat together in the cosey parlor, “you have been coming to see me every Sunday night for the past six months. ” “Yes, Mabel.” “Now, there is one thing that I would like to ask you.” “What is it?” “Do you think that you could ever learn to love another?” “Never while the stars shine or the sun casts his beams upon the earth. ” “Are you sure?” “As sure as I am that I now live. Why do you ask such a question ?” “I was in hopes there was some prospect of your giving me a rest.”—Merchant Traveler.
