The report dcclana that I he inebriety

much debated question.
Popular opiuion lias takcu for grauted
that the acquired characteristics of pur-

oourse, "leuiporaueo reformers," well-

is that the drunkard's child has th

MARRYING OFF THE GIRLS.
THAT OIL WELL CAUGHT THEM.
It Was A Gay Wedding. Three
Fair Brides At One Swoop ;
Three Grooms At a Single
Deal.
Old man Simplex sighed as he un
buckled the lai,t buekle of the harness;
he also gave utterance as follows :
"They hang od, dam my pesky skin,
them gals hang on like stickio'-salve !
Three on 'em, three on 'em ! Every
dern one is up'ards o' thirty, yet they
bang on. Some folks gits 'em offer'n
their bands 'fore they wants to; but my
gals bang on. Why'n thunderashun
duz my gals baDg oo so ?"
He paused for reply. The old sorrel
lay back bis cars and poked hia nose
viciously into the feed-box; a grass spider
ran down a cobweb and dropped into the
ear of the fly-tormented roan; the roan
lifted her left hind leg and kieki d out
the back part of the barn.
After Simplex had repaired the dam
age he sat down upon the edge of the
water trough, clasped his hands together,
and said :
"Tbe wheat has been put io the barn,
the hemlock bark has beco dragged to
tbe mill, I've got ten bar'ls o' cider io the
cellar, forty bushels o' apples in the bins,
one hundred prime puukitisan' seventy
five bushels o' pertaters housed. 'Sides
that the garret groans with heaps o' nuts
an' strings o' popcorn. I'm layio' in fer

They give their hands to the chaps kind
er friendly-like; they play kissin' games
an puller an postoffice, an' all that; but
the fellers don't pop. Why don't they
pop?"
Old man Simplex again paused for a
reply, The only answer he got was a
dig in the ribs from the boms of the
hump-back cow.
"That cow's got more gen'wine sense
than all my gats' fellers put together.
When she wants a drink, she comes here
an' gives me a gentle hint to get out
the way. Drink, my beauty, drink
dee; you are the heftiest milker o' Ihe lot
an' I takes off my hat to you!"
The old fellow took off his hat and
bowed to the gentle cow and then he
stood up stiff as a pioo and said :
"I ve jess got an idear ! It's too pw-ky
mean that cows an' pigs an' horses an
hens can't git idears; but it's human
brains what evolves idaars. Every one

kat off and swung it about. The hump
back cow gave a snort aod trotted away.
Simplex proceede dto the kitchen, washed
bimselfand combed his hair. Then he
went to his wife's room aod asked for
clean shirt.
The good old lady raised her face in
suprise from the sock she wai darning.
"Simplex, are you mad ?"
"Mad? Durn it, wife! I've beeo
mad fur sev'ral years. I've jess come to
my senses. I want a clean shirt, an
want it quick."
"But your health! Two months ago "
"Yes, I know all 'bout il;but ehangio'
a shirt once in two ruooths ham t got
outhio' to do now."
He got the shirt, fixed his collar and
asked ;
"About where is Almiray aod the
tape-wrestler ?"
"Oo the end of the porch. Goin
kill him?"
to
"Great Scott, Do 1 1 u) eom to snare
him," said Simplex, as he rushed away,
However, before he reached the door
to the porch he halted. Ho heard
low whisper io the pallor. He heard
giggle. He oould not be mistaken about
that particular giggle. It waa Laura 'i
He halted in the parlor and said :
"Lauray, turn up the light. I've got
news for vou,"
The lamp was turoed up in ao iostaot
There sat Laura upon a chair, aod about
ive feet away tat the young mao who
kept books in the tannery. Kasteoed
to the left side of Ihe youog mao'i mus
tache waa ooe of the little hairpins that
Laura used to keep her baogs io place. .
"Lauray," said Simplex, "I haio't
fiodin' oo fault with your style; but I've
struck gas on the tartu ao you ve gut lo
chaoge partners. Now, where's Almi
ray I" This was a ooler shot from Sim
plex as he meaot it to be.
"Almiray 'i out oo the porch, pa."
"Good eve I" tod Simplex weot ioto
the hall. He felt some one's feet.
"That you, Teooy ?"
"Yes, pa," oame a voice from the
dark.
"Raise the light," said Simplex
Tbe hall light waa turned up. Tenny
stood leaning against the banisters aod
tue youog mao woo ran the livery in
towD stood with bia back against the wall,
twirling his long red mustache.
"Teooy," (aid Simplex, "I hain't find
no fault with your style; but I've
struck gas on the farm and you've got
ter change pardncrs. Where is Al
miray?" Out on the porch, pa," answered
Tenny, demurely, as she drew aside from
the banisters.
It was a pretty night outhide, and the
stars were twinkling.
"Almiray!"
"Yes, pa," came a voice from the far
end of the porch.
"Almiray!" blurted Simplex, "I hain't
findio' oo fault with your style; but I've
struck gas on the farm, and you've got
ter change pardners. I'm gum' now ''
"But, pa"
"Goin' to bed," and Simplex dodged
through a side window.
He went up to his wife's room, took
off the clean shirt, put on the case-hardened
gingham and said:
"I've nailed 'em, dern my needles!
ve nailed 'em!''
"Nailed who, Simplex?" asked his
wife, as she darned a heel of a sock.
"Fools, fools, fools!" grunted Simplex,
as he slipped his pants and shoes and
tumbled into bed.
He slept sweelly, It was a dreamless
sleep sueh as comes to rest the brain
after well-doing.
"Pa," said Lauia at the breakfast ta
ble, "I'm going to bo married "
"I too," added Tenny.
"I the same," uttered Aliuira.
"Gals, you 'stonish me" muttered Sim
plex, as be buried his face io his bauds.
"So suddeo," uttered the old lady,
as she went around to kiss each of tbe
girls.
It was a gay wedding. Three fair
brides at ODe swoop; three grooms at a
single deal !
The festive young peoplo went away.
When they returned, the grooms all
cauie to Simplex. One of them asked,
"Where is the gas located? There's
fortune in it."
It is here," boys," announced, Simplex,
as he opened bis mouth and gave a puff.
"Naturul gas!"
It was but a few years afterward,
when poor old Simplex began to think,
as the crowd of grandsons and grand
daughters began to overrun the farm,
that he had made a uiislake after all.
