We trust that the groom will not look t f f at his wife in case he finds a button off his garments and that their regard for each other may never become “pied” in life’s rough journey. Ma.y their lives be “leaded” with love, “made up” with sunshine, “locked” with joy, “planed down” with pleasure and "run off” on a perfecting press through the fight of a of a century! May they always have “quoins” in their "bank” and contentment by their fireside.”

The artist who painted a “Yard of Pansies” and a “Yard of Roses” has just produced a magnificent rival to these two lovely pictures.
