JACK SPRATT REARRANGED.
1.-THE DilineatOr.)

Jack Spratt could eat no fat,
His wife could not eat lean;
And so betwixt them both, you see,
They licked the Dlatter clean.
But. as the children older grew,
And times and customs changed,
The table manners of the Spratts,
Perforce, were rearranged.
With six young hungry mouths to fee(
They could not choose and pick.
With twelve observing eyes to see,
OF course, they could not lick.
While father carved the roast for all
The children had their broth
The heather got a penny for
Each spot upon the cloth.
Spratt and his wife are much improv
ed
Their table manners too
Which only goes to show the good
That children sometimes do.

4 Divers Experience.

A recent issue of the Boston
Globe contains a long write-up of
Harry A. Langstaff, diver of Kilt
cry, Me-, who will be remembered as
a diver during last summer for J. E.
eastman in Burlington, working at
Winooski Falls and at different
points on the lake. In his reminis-
cences he says that one of the most
dangerous jobs upon which he was
ever engaged was at Winooski Falls
repairing the dam of the Chace
mills. There were several large holes
in the river bed and the suction near
there was so strong that it often
snatched boards away from his
hands and his tenders were often
obliged to pull with all their strength
to keep him out of them. Among
some of the more important pieces
of work, mentioned as done by him,
is the repairing of the base of
lighthouse in Chesapeake bay, which
had tipped to an angle of As degrees,
and the raising of the L. S. naval
tug Clona, which sank off Ports
mouth, n. H. He has also examined
the bottoms of many of the war
ships for the government

SOME "REMINISCENCES.
Former MOntpelierite Gives Some
Interesting Facts About Old


Interesting Facts About Old
Times.
The Rev. +. p. Stone, of Rutland,
formerly occupying a Congregation
al pastorate in Michigan, has been
spending several days in the city
staying with his sister at the old
Stone residence on Main street, hav-
ing accompanied the remains of an
other sister, Miss Minnie Stone, to
this city recently for final inter-
ment in Green Mount cemetery.
Rev. Mr.. Stone was a former resi-
dent of Montpelier and tells many
amusing inetances of earlier life
both in this city and elsewhere. AS
a small boy in Massachusetts, his
first Latin recitation was heard by
Mary Lyon who endeavored to in
terest him in a scheme for the high
er education of women. He was
very much in awe of her, the fear
possibly induced by her name. He
also remembers when, in the same
State his teacher, a Miss CHECKER
ing, told him that the King of Eng
| land was dead and that a girl named
Victoria was to be Queen. of Eng
land. He hoped she would be a
good queen and not let the soldiers
bring any Indians to carry off lit
tie boys.
= In speaking of his early days in
this city, Rev. Mr.. Stone says
"In the old brick church my
younger brother and l sat through g
sermon perhaps longer than ser
mons are now and my junior fel
asleep and offered some remark!
not very distinct but loud enough tC

from my solemn facy the people
would think that l was the sleepel

laugh out. Then | said to myself

again.
