The bridegroom, who was in a horribly nervous condition, appealed to the clergyman in a loud whisper, at the close of the ceremony:
“Is it kisstomary to cuss the bride?”
The clergyman might have replied:
“Not yet, but soon.”

The young man addressed the old grouch:
“When a fellow has taken a girl to a show, and fed her candy, and given her supper, and taken her home in a taxi, shouldn’t she let a fellow kiss her good-night?”
The old grouch snorted.
“Humph! He’s already done more than enough for her.”
