A Logical Result

By The Presbyterian

A CERTAIN mother in one of our small cities was very fond of playing "progressive euchre." One evening she received a fine silver cup for being the most successful player in a group of society friends. She was much delighted with her success, and, on showing it to her family the next morning, her son, in his early "teens," said, "Huh! I can beat that, for I made ten dollars at the pool-table last night!" Immediately the eyes of the mother were opened in more senses than one, for, in the first place, she had no idea that her son had thus been spending his time, and, in the next place, partners in sin, how could she condemn him? It taught her a lesson once for all.—The Presbyterian.
