BEER VS.. WATER.

The schoolmaster's life is not a
happy one sometimes, but in Texas
at least, it has its compensations.
Here Is letter from an anxious pa
rent recently received by a teacher
in that state:
"Sir,-Will you in future give my
son easier SONS to do at mites? This
is what he's brought hoam two or
three mites back: If fore gallons Of
bere will fill thirty-two pint bottles,
how many pints and half bottles
will nine gallins bere fill? Well.
we tried and could make nothin' OF
1t at all, and my boy cried and laff-
ed and said he didn't dare go back
in the mornin' without dom it. So
l had to go and buy nine-gallon
key of bere, which l could i'll afford
to do, and then he went and borrow
ed lot of wine and brandy bottles.
We filled them, and my boy put the
answer down. / don't know wheth-
er it Is right or not, as we split some
while doing it.
''P. S.-Please let the next som be
in water, as l am not able to buy
more bere."
