Whether or not it is justifiable, there can be no doubt of the existence of a very strong sentiment in the public mind that the average marriage of many millions is devoid of the romance which issaid to give matrimony its sweetest flavor. In this instance, however, there is a very pretty love story. Mr. Anderson when a youtbful student at Exeter, N.
