THE CHIMNEY DEMONS.

Out of the top Of a chimney tall
] saw parcel of demons crawl;
Some in gray and some in white,
And others in robes as black as night.
They danced together; they waltzed and
whrled
With streamers out on the air unfurled;
And the windy bugles began to blow
Aud sent them scurrying to and fro.
In gauzy garments they all were drest;
And one with lengthy plume on his crest
Was the leader Of all, without doubt,
And marshaled his forces round about
With graceful gestures like those al court,
fought,
Fought like furies; for none would yield,
And not remnant was left on the field
The chimney demons their part performed
From morning till night, unless it stormed;
And l loved TO watch them and note the shape
That each one took as it made escape
Out of the shaft, and to see them rise
And melt away in the distant skies;
And when they were angry they rose the
higher,
For then they were fed with fresher fire.
Comic or tragic they seemed to me,
In whatever the mood l Glanced to be;
And fancy led me from day to day
To watch these giants and midgets play.
And even now that I'm older grown,
] often sit by the window alone
And amuse myself as the demons crawl
Out of the top of the chimney tall.

FEELING WATERS.
The One Who Refuses to Zip"
They Call a "Snake."

The One Who Refuses to Zip" Them
They Call a "Snake."
Snake" is the word which hotel
walters use among themselves to desig-
nate any patrons who do not tip" Yet
how often are we assured that the
practice of feeling walters is wholly
voluntary, is not sanctioned by the
owners of hotels and restaurants, and
does not affect the quality of the serv-
ice rendered? In the name of common
sense and common justice let us have a
reform in this business of one sort or
another. Either tipping should be abol-
ished or it should be established on a
reasonable and well understood basis;
Whatever the members of the Boston
Walters Alliance may think, most peo-
pie whom they serve are perfectly ready
to pay for their service and pay we'll.
but great many customers do object to
paying double, that is, paying the cash
Ter an amount that is fixed on the
checks according to a scale ample for
meeting all expenses of the house, in
Guiding walters wages, and also paying
the walters individually. In Europe the
matter is arranged very satisfactorily,
because there it is expected and under
stood by proprietors and patrons alike
that the entire compensation of the
walters is derived directly from those
whom they serve. There is regular
graduation of customary fees, proper
toned according to the size Of ones
checks, and foreigners learn from the
guide books just about what the sum is
that should be paid the waiter in each
instance. No reasonable person finds
fault with that; but a state of things in
which every guest is liable to be
sighted to his face and jeered at behind
his back unless he submits to be bled at
the table, besides paying at the desk, is
not easily reconcilable with our Amer
lean notions of fair play.-Bos>on I'D
