Where to Go on a Honeymoon Let cynics say what they will, the honeymoon, when not greatly misman- aged, is a haleyon period. It is a de- lightful Jull between two distinct states of existence, and the married man is not to be envied who ean recall no pleasant reminiscences of it. What profane ot siders consider very dull has a charm of its own to honeymoon lovers who “il- lumine life with dreaming,” and who “Golden visions wave and hover, Golden vapours, waters streaming, Landscapes moving, changing, gleam- ing!” Still, we cannot but think that if a wedding tour must be taken it should be short, quiet, free-and-easy, and inex- Pensive. At some future time, when the young people are less agitated and have learned to understand cach other Letter, the time and money saved will be available for a more extended holi- day. During the honeymoon there should be “marches hymeneal in the land of the ideal,” rather than globe- trotting; “thoughts moved o'er ficlds Elysian,” rather than over the perplex ing pages of “ Bradshaw's General way and Steam Navigation Guide.”"— —From “How to Be Happy Though Married,” by E.
