Error Exception in Tkinter callback

Hi, I have an error in my code:

bash-2.05b$ python NOTEPAD.py
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1300, in __call__
return apply(self.func, args)
File "NOTEPAD.py", line 110, in set_font
self.window.config(font=font)
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1093, in configure
self.tk.call((self._w, 'configure')
TclError: unknown option "-font"

WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM? THANKS

Code:

    def change_font(self):

        def set_font():

            if self.size_check.get() == 1:
                if self.font_check.get() == 1:
                    font = ('times', 10, 'normal')
                elif self.font_check.get() == 2:
                    font = ('system', 10, 'normal')
                elif self.font_check.get() == 3:
                    font = ('courier', 10, 'normal')
                else:
                   font = ('helvetica', 10, 'normal')

            elif self.size_check.get() == 2:
