what II Costs the Newspaper Publisher.


The advance in printing paper still
continues. The increase in the last six
months makes an additional cost in the
Register alone Of over twenty dollars a
day, and the price promises to go still
higher. There is no warrant for an adj
vance in such proportion as this, and
the manufacturers will probably find a
cooperating press against them If they
continue to force the rates up. Perhaps
they would not like to have the duty
taken off paper and the chemicals used
in making il. But this is not unlikely
if this combined greed shall continue in
the line which it has started. Ncwspa-
per men will not and do not object to
legitimate advance, but they will fight
an outrage if it comes to that-and thev
have the power to do It. As II is now,
nearly all newspapers are maintaining
a loss in their circulation. Every issue
of the weekly Register that is sent out
now represents large actual loss to the
publishers-the price Of paper being adj
vanced so much, since the last annual
rates were fixed, that the subscription
price does not pay the actual cost OF the
paper that the subscriber receives. The
public can see by this how great the ad.
vance has been.

Softly signing 10 the river
Comes the lowly bre eze,
Setting nature all a-quiver,
Rustling thro' the trees,
Thro' the trees.
And the brook. in gentle measure,
Laughs for every love,
While the poplars in their pleasure
Wave their arms above.
Yes, the tree in very pleasure,
Wave their leafy arms above,
Yet the breeze is but a rover;
When he wings away,
Brook and poplar mourn a lover,
sighing well a-day
Well a-dayi
All, the wooing and undoing
That the rogue could tell
When the breeze Is cut a wooing
Who can WOO so well
Ali the tales the rogue could tell
Nobody could WOO SO well.

Modern Demono1ogn.

In the days of ''good Queen Bess,n ,n the enlightened people of England had pleas ant habit of burning those who performed cures which were considered marvellous, as- cribing the agency of the cures to demons or witches No doubt if Dr. Roberts Cough Syrup of Tar, Boneset and Wild Cherry had been employed in those days, the compound CTS and vendors of it would have been burned at the stake; for no cures more marvellous than those wrought by this agency are re- corded in history. Sample bottles ten cents, large bottles fifty cents.
 CoUGHs-Brown's Bronchial Troches are used with advantage to alleviate coughs, sore throat, hoarseness and bronchial affections. For thirty years these troches have been in use, with annually increasing favor. They are not new and untried, but having been tested by wide and constant use by nearly an entire generation, they have attained we'll merited rank among the few stable remedies of the age.
 THE THRoAT.-Brown's Bronchial Troches act directly on the organs of the voice. They have an extraordinary effect in all disorders of the throat and larynx, restoring healthy tone when relaxed, either from cold or over- exertion of the voice, and produce a clear and distinct enuneiation. Speakers and singers find the troches useful.
 A cough, cold, catarrh or sore throat re- quires immediate attention, as neglect often times results in some incurable lung disease Browns Bronchial Troches will almost inva- riably give relief. limitations are offered fo- sale, many of which are injurious. The genr uine Brown Bronchial Troches are sold only in boxes. d23 {, tn, f 1tw

 large number of the Congre gational socie ty yassembled at the parsonage last evening to make the acquaintance of and give a welcome to, Mr. and Mrs. Osborne the new incum- bents. The different parts of the town were well represented, and old and young seemed equally to enjoy the pleasantly passed even ing Mir and Mrs. Osborne have made very favorable impression, and it will not be the fault of the Branford people if they do not find their new home pleasant one. Next week there will be a reception at the new school building and an opportunity will be given to see what an advance in educational advantages has been made in the past few years. The youngsters of to-day who are taken up the 'shin of science'' almost with out exertion cannot realize the toilsome as- cent of those who graduated from the old school house on the Green.
 Branford has been rather dull this winter, the Village Improvement society, dramatic clubs and temperance society having become dormant, and nothing has come forward to take their places in furnishing evenings en- tertainments
 The public library has been removed to the new school building, but there seems but lit tie interest evinced in making much needed additions. The trustees appointed at the last town meeting have fine opportunity for showing their zeal in a matter of interest to the community.
 Preparations are being begun in the several church choirs for the usual Christmas ser vices. Dec. 8th.

To NKr. and Mrs. N. A. Fullerton on the Death of their Only Son. Charlie. Meath the sods of the valley you laid him, Meath the forest leaves so sere And the chill winds sigh above him A requiem sad and drear Yes, he's gone in youths bright morning, Gone from the dear home away, Gone from many hearts that loved him To that land of endless day. An yes, thy Charlie dear has gone To his eternal rest; No more to thee will he return
 To soothe thy aching breast. An many times will your heart be sad, As you miss his countensnce fair; Amidst the circle of the young
 There will be Ga vacant chair.' know that thou art lonely,
 The world to thee seems drear Since thy kind Father has seen fit To take thy Charlie dear. Grieve not nor mourn his loss too much, Since 'tis the hand of God, For all whom He does truly love
 Must feel His christening rod When first it did upon thee fall
 It seemed to thee severe, For 'tis, indeed, bitter cup
 To part with one so dear. But thou may'st weep-'tis sweet to weep Though tears would not him save, For Jesus loves the mourners tears, He wept oer Lazarus grave. Listen to the whispered words of love As they seem to say: Papa, mamma, See. I'm in happy home above,
 o, weep no more for me-" H. E. M. New Haven, December, 1880.

The Emperor's LittIe story.

The Emperor William has returned from a hunting visit to Ludwigslust. One day a stag was driven past him. He fired, but the stag bounded away and was afterwards found dead in the cover of the royal keepers. When the sport was over the Emperor looked at his game laid out as having been shot by him, and, pointing to the stag. asked, with a smile of the chief huntsman, if he had shot that particular. deer. Most assuredly, sire" " was the answer. Good" replied the En- peror. 'sNow let me tell you little story. Last year was deer-shooting in the Hartz, where everybody was extremely kind and po- lite toward me, which is, indeed, the case everywhere When the first days shooting was over, twenty three full-grown stags were shown to me as my share in the sport. Did shoot all these?' I asked the upper forest CT, who had charge of all the arrangements. He repeatedly assured me that had shot them every one. could not help laughing as told him that that was very odd, for that, quite by chance, had counted the cartridges I had fired. They were sixteen in number. How had managed to kill twenty-three deer with sixteen cartridges I must leave to him to explain"
