ABSTRACT

The marriage of a girl is more important than that of a boy, because with her it is once and once only. But as readers have indicated, if her age be under fifty, and that of her son below fifteen, while at the same time she has no close relatives on her father's side to take the economic responsibility off her shoulders, she may marry again. It is not necessary to ask how they made known their affection for each other hearts have tongues that are not made of flesh. At any rate, they found means of communicating, and finally eloped. Now it is evident that one born under the fox could not marry one born under the chicken. The astronomical board, in making the annual calendar, decides upon the lucky and unlucky days, and no sane person will think of marrying, or burying a friend, upon an unlucky day.
