A STORY.
BY Dad.

Don't forget tina. this is story.
It's all about Doc getting married.
1t may be difficult for you to realize
the fact that he ia married, but it is
q fact, nevertheless, Just why Doc
got married l don't know and ! don't
know that he knows. Fact is / don't
believe ne thought much about 1t until
the sapient Solons of the late Oregon
legislature decreed that all male men
whu may become candidates for mat
rimony must henceforth procure
physician 8 certificate stating that such
candidate is mentally and physically
qualified to assume the grave and re-
spnosible position as the head OF a
prospective family This utterance
of that august body he seemed to
regard as a challenge, a kind of
banter, and it reused his Irish. 1t
peeved him.
The only way he could see to assert
his manhood and resent the foul insin-
nation hurled at him by the Legislature
was 10 enter the lists of the beneuicts.
This was his def.
Then. too, the rapid flight of years,
and the steady advance of old age
NAV have had something to do with it,
for he has already reached an elevation
from which the 3O's can be seen He
saw plainly that if he ever expected
to emulate the example of his older
brother, and maintain the reputation
of the family as a liberal supporter OF
the public schools that he had no time
to fool away.
And then, didn't he have a perfect
right to get married if he wanted to?
Wash It he free born American citizen
of lawful age? Was ne not worthy
and we'll qualified? Suppose he was
the youngest of the family, should
that forever bar him from working in
double harnes Not if he knew
himslef. Didn't Earl Gillian get
married under such conditions. and
had Earl any rights that he did nnt
possess? Then why should he not get
married? The case was clear, he
would. That was settled.
He communicated the results of his
cogitations to his best girl: took her
as it we're into his most secret counsels
Together they canvassed the PROPOSE
tion from every point and angle.
They looked the cold facts square in
the face. They deliberately discussed
the obstacles that we're to be en-
oountered on the journey of life to
impede their progress and embitter
their days. They tried to survey the
entire horizon, and they did their best.
They discovered that they were of
one mind and heart, and decided that
since their two hearts beat as one
henceforth they would "pad the road
together. " Another point settled.
Ii only remained to dispose of the
legal impediments.
The physicians certificate was pro-
cured.
Armed with this precious document
there was no difficulty in extorting
from the accommodating county clerk
that most formidable but necessary
piece of paper known in legal phrase
ass marriage license and which con-
fers upon certain parties the privilege
of addressing a few we'll chosen re-
marks to the principals in the trans
alton and in the name Of the common
wealth to pronounce them husband and
wife. All right so far.

communities in West Virginia that
ought to celebrate, and if each one had
q birthday c-l:3 10 commemorate the
event that would make 1000 cakes.
But let US put the 2,000 cakes in one
big cake A newspaper man is not, as
rule, much of cake maker, but after
it is made he is equal to any magician
In making it disappear. The writer is
no exception to the average newspaper
man as a pastry cook and is not, there
fore, as competent to compile figures
as some of the women who may read
this article. However, he has esti-
mated that the 1000 cakes in one
would require 10000 eggs, $50 pounds
of butter, 300 pounds of sugar, and, OF
course, other ingredients such as fla
voring extracts, flour, etc. 1t is esti-
mated that one cake would cost the
modest sum Of 35 cents; therefore, the
big birthday cake would cost $780,
But let us suppose that in every COM
munity where they are going to have
a celebration and undoubtedly some
thing to eat in connection herewith,
that there will be at least ten cakes;
81 we multiply our original estimate of

600 candles would be thrown and other
interesting oddities that might come
to ones mind; the size of the pan in
which to hold the cake, the size of the
oven to bake it in, the size OF the
spoon to stir it, the length of the lad
iers necessary to climb to the top to
put on the icing, the number OF trips
up the ladder to carry the white frost
ing, the size of the knife to cut 1t, and
so forth and SO on.
Ii we can not have the mammoth West
Virginia birthday cake, with its 1900,
geo candles to shed their radiance for
miles around, we can have rousing
celebration in which 100000 loyal pa
trlotic and enthusiastic West Virgin.
ians will take part. And from these
100000 bright lights of our state will
radiate happiness and good cheer, 10y
atty and patriotism; love and kind
ness; goodwill to our neighbors; best
wishes to all our our sister states; a
gratitude from hearts full of peace and
contentment thankfulness for bless
ings received and an unwavering faith
in the continued love and watchfulness
of kind Providence.
