SUNCLE." "

{ Tie title role of Uncle" in the dra- matic production of that name, which win be given at Poli's theater on next Wednesday, April 10, will be inter preted by Arthur c. Hitchcock, with d rare understanding of the character which he has assumed. MT Hitch cock successes on the local stage have won for him much praise, and in this, his latest effort, the Waterbury public will find that his well adapted render ing of an interesting character par IS sure to bring him added triumphs. The many friends of Mrs Marie l.. Chipman will take pleasure in discoy- ering her name in the cast which the Waterbury public is becoming impa- tent to see. With characteristic grasp of character interpretation and a familiarity with the amateur stage, Mrs Chipman as Mrs Paul Beaumont will fill charmingly the leading lady'S role. Louis M. HemInway, who has scored not few successes in amateur fheafricals, again will be heard, and his Characterization of the role of Paul Fletcher, as the ever ready assistant fc-his best friend, Paul Beaumont. cannot fail to win unstinted praise for the clever adaptabilfty in part which gives scope for an attractive person D. Heminway's Watertown friends will give him a hearty welcome. Louis $. Reed, who is not unknown to the Wa 1erbury stage, will assume the role of Puffin. the pastry cooks man. AL though an inconspicuous part, the play could not be perfected without this all important eonfectioner's man, upon whose supply of delicacies hangs much of the interest of the plot. Miss Mar FAret M. GrannisS is known to Water bury audiences through her recognized ability as an interpreter of violin music As Emily Montrose she will show a comprehension of role which her friends will appreciate because of the individuality that this part will portray. Miss Hazel R. Hyde's first appearance before the footlights will doubtless eaptivate her friends, as she personates the role of Sarah Jane, sousemaid, and Miss Hyde's practical unfamiliarity with the experiences of Sarah will be no drawback to the clever representation of so difficult a role. In addition to the amateur tal- ent in the cast Willard ID. Howe, presi- dent of the Yale Dramatic association, has been introduced to the reading public in previous issue of the Dem ocrat. 1t Is unnecessary to add that the cast is favored in having a profes- sional and so artistic an actor to assure the success of Uncle" The play is given under the patronage of the Friendly league board of officers, and has been rehearsed and will be pro duced under the direction of Miss Rose M. Hubbard, who for a number of years has been a leading actress under the Frohman management.

How to Button a Coat.

The art of properly buttoning a coat
any coat-is. do it the other way.
That Is to say that nine out of every
ten Of US button our coats the wrong
way. We commence with the tOpmost
button when'we should commence with
the bottommost.
The frailest portion of a coat, in re-
spect to shape retaining qualities-no
matter how we'll made-is the region of
collar and lapels. The sWagger mer-
chant tailor always cautions his GUS
toner to wear it buttoned a few days
so that the collar may set properly"
Then, this admitted, it follows that
tugs and strains affecting this part of
the garment tend to destroy its SYM
metry. Drawing the coat together by
the top button and buttonhole for the
purpose of fastening exerts a pull all
around the shoulders and neck region,
which, by repetition. in time will give
the smartest coat a hang dog appear.

1nsects Become Intoxicated.

IntOXication from the nectar and pol
len of plants has been a subject of III
vestigatiOn by DR.. ]. NJ Weir, Jr. This
affects insects. and it appears that the
cosmos flower is specially potent as a
source of drunkenness in bees and 9TH
er nectar loving creatures. A bee so
drunk that it could scarcely get upon
its legs was taken to the laboratory
and placed about two inches from a
cosmos blossom. It Immediately stag
gered to the flower and began to suck
the nectar and in a few moments tum-
bled over, a senseleSS and almost inert
victim Of appetite. Drunken beetles
found under the blossoms prove that
the pollen must have the same effect
as the nectaries.
The eXperimenter swallowed a half
teaspoonful Of the pollen and in about
10 minutes experienced feeling of eX-

Chopin ON Piano lingering.

This is from fragment of piano fin
gering left by Chopin: No one notices
inequality in the power Of the notes Of
a scale when it is played very fast and
equally as regards time. In a good
mechanism the aim is not to play ev-
erything with an equal sound. hut to
acquire 4 beautiful quality of touch
and a perfect shading.
For long time players have acted
against nature in seeking to give equal
power to each finger. On the contrary.
each finger should have an appropriate
part assigned it. The thumb has the
greatest power, being the thiCkeSt fin
ger and the freest. Then comes the lit
tie finger, at the other extremity of the
hand. The middle finger is the main
support of the hand and is assisted by
the first. Finally comes the third, the
weakest one.
"AS to this Siamese twin of the middle
finger some players try to force it with
all their might to become independent,
thing impossible and most likely un-
necessary. There are, then, many diff
ferent qualities of sound, just as there
are several fingers. The point is to
utilize the differences, and this, in other
words, is the art of fingering."-H

When EverxthInR stIck..

I'm muggy weather" said the retired
burglar. Il always used to stop work
not because work was unpleasant then,
but on account of everything sticking
so.
'You couldn't tell what might hap
pen Anything and everything was lia-
bic to stick and make more or less
noise when you finally got it open. A
window might stick at first and then
go up with a bang. I've had a door
open on me that way-1y open all of a
sudden after I'd been pushing on it a
long time and let me through the door
way on to the floor. There's always
danger. for instance. in pulling out a
drawer that sticks of pulling it clean
out and letting it drop.
There's constant danger of some
thing Of this sort happening. and il
doesn't pay to take the chances. And
it's easy enough to know when to stay

any work in weather that would rust 8
