Vous croyez qu'ils vécurent heureux et que tout se termina là ; mais une fois plongé dans les douceurs de la vie conjugale, le beau Lautrec n'est plus qu'un mari vulgaire...
Nous connaissons déjà les noces d’argent, d’or et de diamant : de l'autre coté de l’Atlantique, où, par suite de la facilité du divorce, les longs mariages sont plus rares, la mode, à présent, est de célébrer, dès après dix ans de vie conjugale, ses noces d'étain.
