Maehy not toe Money. — "John,"- said a Quaker to a young friend, " I hear thou art goin^ to be married." " Yes," replied John, •' I am." "Well," replied the man of drab. "I have one little piece of advice to give thee, and it is, never to marry a woman worth more than thou art. When I married my wife I was worth just fify shillings and she was worth sixty-two ; and whenever any difference has occured between us since, she has always thrown the odd shillinginmyface."
