Book Getting Married  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Getting Married Classic Reprint written by Bernard Shaw and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Getting Married Now most laws are, and all laws ought to be, stronger than the strongest individual. Certam the marriage law is. The only people who successfully evade it are those who actually avail themselves of its shelter by pre tending to he married when they are not, and by Bohe mians who have no position to lose and no career to be closed. In every other case open violation of the mar riage laws means either downright ruin or such inconve niemce and disablement as a prudent man or woman would get married ten times over rather than face. And these disablements and inconveniences are not even the price of freedom; for, as Brieux has shewn so convinc ingly in Les Hannetons, an avowedly illicit union is often found in practice to be as tyrannical and as hard to es cape from as the worst legal one.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Married? Miss Livingston stepped into the foyer of the Toy Theatre. A low light burned there, and Miss Paul was talking earnestly with a girl in the box office. She looked up as the door closed and smiled. "Good evening, Marcia," she said. "Evening, Mary Jane. Is the rehearsal on?" "Yes - Sawyer has just called the first act." Miss Livingston went on into the darkened body of the house. A little nervous man paced up and down the aisle, listening to the actors who read their parts from script. He gave Miss Livingston a curt good evening. She scarcely responded, and seated herself well away from him, toward the front, nodding to the actors as she sat down. The play was one of Dunsany's and in the first stages of rehearsal. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctor's Dilemma, Getting Married, and the Shewing-Up of Blanco Posnet Again I hear the voices indignantly muttering old phrases about the high character of a noble profession and the honor and conscience of its members. I must reply that the medical profession has not a high char acter: it has an infamous character. I do not know a single thoughtful and well-informed person who does not feel that the tragedy of illness at present is that it de livers you helplessly into the hands of a profession which you deeply mistrust, because it not only advocates and practises the most revolting cruelties in the pursuit.

Here the mansions are larger, the lawns are wider, and the shade of the elm trees is deeper, as if greenness and whiteness and cleanness had reached the very I am of gentility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marriage A La Mode I'm sorry to find you don't like the States, Uncle Archie. The young man sat down beside his uncle. They were in the deck saloon of a steamer which had left Washington about an hour before for Mount Vernon. Through the open doorway to their left they saw a wide expanse of river, flowing between banks of spring green, and above it thunderous clouds, in a hot blue. The saloon, and the decks outside, held a great crowd of passengers, of whom the majority were women. The tone in which Roger Barnes spoke was good-tempered, but quite perfunctory. Any shrewd observer would have seen that whether his uncle liked the States or not did not in truth matter to him a whit. And I consider all the arrangements for this trip most unsatisfactory, the General continued angrily. The steamer's too small, the landing-place is too small, the crowd getting on board was something disgraceful. They'll have a shocking accident one of these days. And what on earth are all these women here for - ih the middle of the day> It's not a holiday. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When You Marry The authors of this book, who had already served as two of the memo bers of the committee that prepared the outline of the course, were asked to prepare a workbook to be used in conjunction with a textbook as the basis of a prospective course in the United States Armed Forces Institute. Although a course in Marriage and the Family has not yet been included in the program of the Institute, the authors were encour aged, by indications of widespread interest in a course with the same objectives for all young people preparing for marriage, to write the pres ent volume. The authors of When You Marry are unusually well qualified by their training and experience to prepare a volume meeting the present pressing needs and concerns of young people. Evelyn Millis Duvall has a thorough background in biology, and has completed her residence requirements for the doctor's degree in the field of human development, which is an integrated program of study including pertinent courses in anthropology, biology, economics, nutrition, psychiatry, psychology, and sociology. As director for eight years of the Association for Family Living she gained an understanding of the problems of young people of all social classes, and of ways of working with them in the discussion of their questions. Dr. Reuben Hill had his graduate training in so ciology. Organizer and director for four years of the interdepartmental courses in marriage at the University of Wisconsin, with further experi ence in the University of South Dakota, Iowa State College, and nu merous informal collegiate situations, he has intimate knowledge of the problems of college youth and experience and skill in methods of teach ing adapted to their interests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Whom to Marry and How to Get Married!: Or the Adventures of a Lady in Search of a Good Husband Chequered life. Oh! The sky was such a sweet, clear blue, you don't know, with only two or three little darlings of white clouds floating about, like so many ducks of marabout feathers; and my pretty little dickey was frisking about in his bright brass-wire cage, and Whistling away more sweetly, if possible, than that charming Herr Von Joel at an evening party - (by-the-bye, what a sad, sad pity it is he has lost that front tooth of his). I declare, too, if the beautiful boxes of mignionette we had growing outside our parlor-windows didn't smell more divinely than the inside of that darling Delcroix's shop. As for my heavenly gold fish, positively it was quite beautiful to see the dear little pets Shining in the sun as if they were treble-gilt, and sporting in upwards of a gallon of their native element, While they kept swimming round and round their crystal prison, as though they were waltzing away, and tripping it on the light fantastic fin, for very joy. Oh! It was a perfect love of an afternoon, on that horrid, horrid Tuesday, the 3rd of July, 1832. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Marriage in the States  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Marriage in the States Classic Reprint written by John Talbot Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marriage in the States This indifference of parents does not always remain quiescent. The more resolute oppose by secret or open means the approach of suitors for their girls. And emplo the arts of persuasion and satire to delay the marriage of their sons. How cleverly this is done among the simple would surprise the experienced. Here is an illustration the family had eight children of marriageable age, good examples of the irish-american stock, bright, alert, sociable. The mother, without a single utterance against the marriage state itself, and behind a cordial reception to suitors, man aged a campaign of satire and ridicule against the young men which secured for them a lively rejection of their matrimonial proposals; with the result that the four girls died early and unmarried, quite satisfied that they hadescaped the burdens of married life. Of the four boys one married early, but could never bring his wife to meet his mother; a second married after the mother's death and was then over fifty, for the determined old lady lived long; the other two remained bachelors. The extraordinary prava lence of these instances, and the various forms which they assume must be well known to pastors. A shrewd old father with a good working family, foreseeing his helpless old age, highly appreciative of a comfortable bcme, but deprived by death of his wife's aid, will play the game himself with success; or an 'der sister left in charge of the family will scheme against matrimonial invasion of her inheritance. My attention was at first attracted to this strange condition by the apparent failure of certain families in the third generation. For example, here would be a father and mother of Irish birth, whose brother; and sisters numbered perhaps a dozen, who had endured the hardships of emigra tion and of getting a footing in new lands with splendid strength, who presented the country with ten fine children, and who saw their old age honored with four grandchildren! This phenomenon should open the sleepiest eyr and yet it is as common as our daily bread. Four children in the third generation where there should have been forty. Examina tion showed many causes for this extraordinary failure, but in my experience the chief was the absence of marriages, or late marriages, among those children; and the source of the trouble was a jealous and foolish old woman, determined to keep her children at her side while she lived. And her old age was as garrulous against the married state as her middle age had been critical of suitors. A large family brought up in this hostile atmosphere, reduced to a comfortable and harmless routine, succumbs more easily to disease than an active marrying family. These determined old wow haveoften suffered the double punishment of seeing their chil dren perish before their time, while the marrying family next door multiplied on the earth and trooped back on occasions with companies of children to gladden the home of the grandparents. My children had every advantage, one old mother said me, and half of them are dead, and the other half look as old as mesclf. But the Cronins that lived on potatoes and buttermilk and got no training at all, at all, and married at the crossroads - there's no end to them. It would be useless to tell her that she had culti rated carefully her own misfortunes, that the married state has been so blessed by the Creator that its duties and te sponsibilities develop strength, health, longevity, cheerful ness, resource, and that for most people it is the natural condition in the third decade.

The moonlight kissed the white Spires, the snow-covered meadows, the distant houses. From the bare hedges and the branches of the trees hung great icicles which glittered like diamonds. The red berries shone on the holly trees, . The tall dark firs stood out in martial array, the stars shone in the night-sky. Oh, beautiful Christmas-eve!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Problems of Married Life: The Baedeker to Matrimony There will come a time in this spring-tide when they awaken to the consciousness Of unpleasant traits in each other. The wife may find that what she deemed his fine firmness of character is simple, unadulterated obstinacy. His reverence for money in small denominations is not the prudence and wise economy she once believed it, but a chronic tender-heartedness that makes it hard for him to say good-bye to a dollar. In the Old days she was the gentle referee Of all his thinking; now he seems as autocratic and domineering as a slave-driver in the Congo.
