A Short Courtship.
Adam acted like a sensible man. - He
fell asleep alone, and woke with a sweet'
heart beside him. He appears to have
popped the question almost immediately
to Eve, and she, without any flirtations
or shyness, gave him a kiss and herself
On this first event however, we have
our idea, -and when in a poetical mood
have wisbed we had been Adam. But
the deed was done, the chance was
Adam's and he made the most of it
We like the notion of getting married in
a garden. We like private, weddings.
Adam's was private. No envious beaux
were there, no croaking old maids, ho
chattering aunts or grandmothers. ; The
birds of heaven were the choir and the
glad eky the canopy. VS till with all these
advantages, we think Adam was a little
too young to marry. He was only two
or three days .-eld. They both were
babies, only larger sized ones than- we
produce, without a pot or kettle twith
nothing but love And Eden. San Fran
