Curious Matrimonial Mixture
From the Chicago Herald.

One of those curious family complications
which are liable to arise in any community
has Just been brought to light In Michigan,
through the marriage of widower with
three sons and widow with three daugh..
ters. Were this marriage the only one that
had taken place between the members of
those now united In families, the task point
ing out the relationships existing between
the different people concerned would not be
severe one. But the three sons have had
the temerity to fall In love and become mat
rimonially attached to the three daughters.
Just what relation the boys and girls bear to
each other and to the old people, and Just
what kinship the old people have acquired
for the. younger ones of the household, is
something that requires considerable
thought. The young men are certainly bro.
thes-in-law to themselves, and the girls are
just as certainly sistersin-law to each other.
Each boy Is on-in-law to his own father.
and each girl Is daughter-in.law TO her
own mother. The old man has become hus-
band to the mother-in.law Of his own son,
and naturally, bis wife being still In the
flesh, must be bigsmist. Ergo, the old
lady must be bigamist, she being the wife
Of her son -in-law's father. Now, " the old
lady should have child, what relation
would he or she bear to the possible child of
one Of the young couples? We pause for
reply.

Since was swung up high and dry
Brtwixt these posts set fast.
And now I've grown 80 powerful weak
Despised by man and beast
I'm scarcely strong enough to squeak,
Although Pm never creased.
Twas twenty years ago, say,
When Mr. Enos White
Came kind Of hanging round my way
Most every other night.
He hung upon my starboard side
Aud she upon the tothrr--
Till Susan Smith became his bride
And in due time mother.
Igroaned intensely when heard
Despite am no churl-
My doom breath-d in single word
The baby was girl!
And as she grew aud grew and grew,
/ loud benoansd my fate
For she was very fair to view,
And II was the gate!
Then, in due time lover came,
Betokening my ruin
A darper fellow, Brown by name,
The grown up baby wooin!
They swung upon me in the gloom,
And talked of moon aud star
They're married now and live at home
Alone with ma and pa.
Ny lot was happy for year
No counting, night or day
had no thought, had no fear
Bad luck would come my way.
But. oh! this morning-save the mark!
There came wild surprise;
A shadow fiitted-grim and dark
Across my sunny skies.
A doctor with knowing smile
A nurse with face serene
A hustle in the house the while
Great Scott. what can 1t mean?
Ny hinges alchemy lock is weak
My pickets are awhirl-
