On her wedding day he sent her a telegram which, as received, tersely ran: "John, IV., 18." On looking up the text she was hor- rified to read: "For thou hast had five husbands.

John 1, IV, 18, reads: "There is no fear in love, bu t perfec t love casteth out fear." I I FOOT OF PEh l8 ERTON Phone North 305.
