\ SET OF TEETH.--I have had all my
teeth pulled out, for to tell the truth.
think they have been a curse to me alway.
rather than blessing. Now, in their place
have had false ones put in, and | must tel
you my experience with my new mastcators
felt, when the "sot" was fgst put in, as
though | had couple of wheel tarrows
full of paving stones laying around loose in
mr. mouth, and it seemed as if thev were
going to be spilled out at every motion -
The first day | waited till every one had
done their dinner, not daring to make au
exhibition of my teeth and run the risk of
their dropping on the table. Well, chew
ed little and stopped, chcwed again and
stopped, aud finally went to my room and
laid the darned things on the back part Of
an upper shelf, thinking they were no 90.
The next day tried them again, but with
little better success, and after this would
carry them in my pocket, occasionally trying
the things on, ard every time experiencing
some new emotion. One day they would
feel as much like great horse shoe, with
nails in as anything else, and again could
be certain that | had great circular wheel
slowed under my lips. Some of my expert.
enee was very comicaI. They served me so
many times, and was rather getting tired
OF my bargain but by perseverance | have
become used to their ways, and now they
cannot get away from me, as know Just
how to manage them, and how to bite on
them, and bless from the bottom of my
heart the inventor of false teeth.

SINGULAR RELATIoNsHIP- A few wears
since, widower, Mr.. W., with two chill.
dren, both boys, entered into matrimonial
union with a widow. Mrs. f., having two
daughters. In the course of time the hus
band died, leaving two little children. a
boy and girl The oldest son of Mr.. w.
entered into a matrimonial union with his
step mother, Mrs. W, of course retaining
the same name. A child was born, dine,
bouncing little female This being the
state Of the case who can tell the precise
relationship the parties have with each
other? The step-sun becomes the step
father to those who by law are his step
sisters, while the step mother becomes the
wife of her step-son, This is plain enough,
but what is the eEact relationship of the
little babe to the elder daughters of Mrs.
W? Cln it be a step sister, wher its faith,
er, the husband Of their own mother, is
their step-brother 1t seems so.
But the second son of Mr.. w married
his stepsister, Miss F., and they have been
blessed with a couple of children, who
would secm TO be first cousins to the first
offspring of Mrs. W. But how can they be
first cousins when Mrs. w. is their grand
mother? Or how can they be grand cousins
when they never had grand father? This
seems to be a sort of perplexng rddle that
may puzzle Philadelphia lawyer to unravel
la all this inter marriage, it will be seen
that blood relations have been avoided, and
thus the injunctlons of the Scriptures have
not been violated. Portland Argas.
