 The door-bell of No. 25 had to De rung twice before an elderly, plain-featured and somewhat sullen-looking woman, who wore print gown and an apron, made her ap- pearance. "You needn't tear the old place down." she said resentfully to the cabman ''you ain't in such desp'rate 'urry but what won can allow a person i've seconds to climb up the kitching stairs, I suppose"
 "Does Miss Ramsden live hereT Chris in- quired of the person who opened the door.
 "All right, miss; you're expected, an swered the woman, "and you'll find Miss Rebecca in the parlor. Left and door as you go in. P'r'aps you'd best pay the cabman first, though, and give him something extra for carrying the boxes upstairs" Then, in perfectly audible aside, she calculated: Dogs too! What next, should like to knowP Chris having settled with the cabman, fol- lowed the directions given her, entered tn house and announced herself.

HE SWING.

Cut In the yard, beneath the trees, Where blithely blows the autumn nree10s And where betwixt the leaves on high There glimmer little strips of sky, My sturdy swing is hung, and there Imake swift voyage far in air Now up and down I gayly go Upon my journeys to and fro. sr. Whene'er rise, upon my sight a- Dawn meadows bathed in golden light; Whene'er dip, my eye perceives A rustling bower of yellowing leaves. The birds around me ehirp and sing As merrily swing and swing; But soon the birds will all be gone, And snow will lie along the lawn, So. if tread, my steps will show Like Crusoe's Fridays long ago. When winter winds in chorus call, do not use my swing at all,
 But patiently try to wait
 Until returning robins mate;
 And when they cry to greet the spring. o, how join them from my swingl Clinton Scollard, in Harper's Young People

From this date until after the holidays the EVENING DEMOCRAT columns are ''worth their weight in gold" to advertie- CTS.
 The enterprising merchants of this town, who know a good thing when they experience it, are showering favors upon us in such abundance that it is possible we may be obliged to publish supplement before Christmas.
 It is needless to say that merchants can find no better advertising medium in Wa. terbury for the next two weeks than the DEMOCRAT. The columns will teem with desirable reading matter and the natural bent of the reader will be to turn from the reading matter to the advertising col- umns for valuable suggestions in the matter of holiday presents. It will be well for merchants who deaira good positions to make their arrangements at once.

What Men Eat and Drink.

If man eats pound of beef, mutton or other flesh every day. in year he will consume S65 pounds, and in sixty years 21, 900 pounds of meat. He will eat the same weight of vegetables and quite as much bread, so here are ASSOC pounds more. He will drink every day two quarts of coffee, tea wine, beer or water, making total of 10000 gallons, or about 175 hogsheads of liquid. This estimate does not include the probabili- ty that he will eat forty or fifty lambs with mint sauce, couple of thousand spring chickens. about 500 pounds of butter, 10000 or 5O,OO0 eggs and four hogsheads of sugar. If all this supply were piled up on the scales it would weigh over forty-five tons, and if stored would fll cotton warehouse from floor to ceiling. g.-Chicago Times.

CHAPTER ".

Chris had always hitherto boon accustomed to perform her railway travelling in Q lore or less luxurious fashion. However, she and her companion were made as uncomfortable as they could well be. The compartment in which Chris and her escort were thrust by o peremptory guard had but two vacant plnces ; worst of all, Peter was borne of to the dog. hole, despite the entreaties of his mistress.
 eff people will insist upon travelling with dogs they must submit to these trifling in- conven1ences," remarked Mir. Compton.
 Altogether it was most miserable journey; and, to add to its annoyances, shortly after leaving Marseilles Peter had the misfortune to bite the guard, who had been brlbed to transfer him from the dog-hole into the van. The guard, boiling over with wrath, came to exhibit his wound, and Chris had to pay up a hundred francs, besides offering the humblest of apologies.
 "I expected this p sighed MT. Compton, as he handed over the money; which was m irritating and idiotic thing to say, because he could not possibly have anticipated any. thing of the sort.
 On the ensuing day the travellers reached Charing Cross. MT. Compton, who had been wofully sick crossing the Channel, and wna even more sorry for himself than usual, offered to see his charge safely to her desti- nation-"although it Is quite long drive and quite out of my way, and Mrs. Compton particularly dislikes being kept waiting for dinner. If at any time you should have any observation or-er-complaint to make to me, letter addressed to 192 Bedford Row will re- ceive attention"
 The drive was indeed a long one. Balac- lava Terrace, when at length it was reached looked almost squalid in its mean ugliness A row of small red-brick houses, each one the exact duplicate of the other, each with two | windows on the ground-fioor and three on the first-noor, each with shabby little stuc- coed portlOo-she could not help laughing |

presence Of the captains wife on the ship
has something to do with the homelike ap-
pearance of the cabin. Captain L. Reid. Of
the Bess6eld, has been twenty years ct sea,

degrees south, the vessel had light, variable

TAs TEACHERS CONVENTION.
MONDAY AFTERNOON.

Prof. NJ. NJ. Scott gave lesson
on elementary English composition,
with Messrs. Moore, Thatcher and
Gibson, and Miss Needham acting
as pupils. The standard mode of
initiating the Juvenile litcrateur into
the mysteries of sentence making
was set forth, the only drawback to
the practical utility of The exercise
being the over aptness of the inlpro-
viscd scholars. The instructor had
occasion TO discuss the word
write and upon asking for ali
other word Of the same sound, was
promptly answered by the senior
pupil, II don't think il right for
you to be making me work all the
time" AT this stage, the conven-
ton was divided into two parts, one
body going off into another room.
Mr.. w. L. Lucas duplicated TO the
two divisions very good elucida-
ton of phonics as applied to the
different shades of English vowel
sounds. Mr.. p. l.. Lord took up
the subject OF writing and gave some
practical directions on the details of
conducting writing lessons. The
teaching of writing by elements and
eschewing copy books was laid down
as principle proper to be observed.
"Only use copy books when you
can't get along without thcm," was
the preeept laid down on that part
of the subject. The convention
| closed at , O'Clock.

A SCENE In COURT.

To-day, at the trial of Lui
Seymour, who tried to aid Mills in
escaping from prison recently, he
attempted to take his own life. JUS
tice Dole sentenced him TO six
months Imprisonment at hard labor,
when he pulled out pistol, and
pointing at his heart, pulled the trig-
ger. 1t missed fire, and before he
could make another effort 10 take
his life, Mr.. Paul Neumann knocked
him down with chair, and people
from the Legislative Hall and other
rooms of the Government House ran
up stairs and secured the prisoner
from any further attempts at des-
truction.
