Bert \Voodward has grown twoinches
and three-quarters since the advent of
that nine-pound baby boy 011 Sunday.
Great sympathy is expressed for the
widow of Frank Sheldon, which will
doubtless result in much needed mate-
rial aid in her bereavement.
Just as the minutes of the previous
meeting were being read at the session
of Douglas Fowler Post last night,
George Platt, officer of the guard, was
seized with a severe fainting fit. He
was removed to the ante-room and af-
ter a time was restored to conscious—
ness and thcn returned home in East
Norwalk.
An enterprising and (considering the
weather) brave citizen has established
an out-door tafi'y stand near the post-
oflicc and appears to do a good busi-
. ness-—since when, the young fellows all
say their best girls have grown much
sweeter. Great is the march of im-
provcment.
The last gospel temperance meeting
at the hall in the G. A. R. building was
made very interesting by the earnest
words of the president. Joseph Miller,
followed by those ardent members,
Mrs. Marshall, Samuel Jones, Thomas
TVood, and Messrs. Grant, Selleck and
Loos. Young men, especially, are sign-
ing the pledge.

“”0 are pleased to hear that some of
the Old veterans have placed their re"
ccntly acquired bounty in bank. Of
course, $200 isn’t a fortune, but it will
buy a heap of ammunition which you
will find handy, boys, when that old
wolf of poverty may come prowling
around your doors;
The barbers appear to be divided
against themselves as regards Sunday
work. The time recently given them
is until 9 a. m. This does not suit one,
because it isn’t longer, and he desires
that it be extended until noon. An—
other is an early church-goer and can-
not conscientiously neglect his religious
duties so early in the morning, but, at
the same time, evidently, doesn’t want
others to open their shops and shave
his customers. Why not, then, hire a
substitute who doesn’t care a picayune
whether there is‘a “lake which burn-
cth,” etc.. or not?

Narrow escape from drowni11g.——Onc
of the “ swear-off ” gentry, lately met
with a thrilling incident. They call this
swearing-01f business, down here, “get-
ting on a keg,” and in the case under
consideration the head of the “ keg ”
bursted, and the gent fell through and
was submerged in a foaming fluid to
the tip-top of his cars. Being unable
to swim he was obliged to openhis jaws
and let the fluid run down his esopha~
gus. It was soon low tide, and then
he was able to keep his nose above
the surface and inhale the glorious
breath of life.
-x- a r.-
A resident on Main streetmade anov-
cl attempt lately to terminate the life
of an aged sick cat. Having owned the
animal several years, none of the fam_
ily wished that it should beput to death
in any violent manner and, therefore,
conceived a plan that would be painless
and of which poor puss would be un~
conscious. A bed of rags saturated
with chloroform was made in a wash- .
boiler, the cat was placed therein and a I
board laid across the top of his‘prison. I
Next morning, upon examination, it
was found that Thomas had displaced
the cover and, seated on his haunches, I
was calmly snoozing at the bottom of g
the boiler, unharmed; and, strange to '
say, since then he has recovered his
former good health, and now he will ,
be permitted to live as long as he can 5
and die a natural death. It may be
the anaesthetic broke the cat’s bacteria.

W. S. Crofut returned to Norwalk
last week from the Berkshire Hills,
where he has been supplying the na—

TVhat might be called an Old land-
mark,” near our handsome Winnipauk-
ian suburb, is fast disappearing—the
hill-forest across the river. west of the
railroad depot. The woodman’s ax is
making sad havoc there, whlch, 1f con-
tinued until spring will leave the hill
in a barren and destitute condition, un-
less the woodman may spare a tree or
two. These woods, planted by a wise
Creator, have grown there longer
ago than the oldest native can remem—
ber, and will be sadly missed by those
who cherish the familiar and loved
scenery of “ye olden tyme.” But no
more will their pleasing green foliage
salute the eye; no more their branches
be the home of the frisky chipmunk;
and “when the robins nest again” they
will be compelled to seek other quar-
ters, and the melodious warblings of
the hi-ho, shidepoke and screech owl,
will never again in that particular 10-
cality charm the auricular organs of
the residents of Baby Hill.

Hasty Criticism.
A sign painter had just finished painting
a sign‘for an agent for sewing machines,
who had started in business. As the
painter descended from his ladder he and
the sewing machine agent both looked up
at the sign, which'rcad plainly as follows;
..................................................
“Look here!” exclaimed the agent, some-
what timidly. “Isn’t ‘scwing machine’
spelled with an e instead of an o?”
The painter glanced at the agent with an
injured air.
“Well!” he said, “I should think you
might let my work get dry before you be-
gm to criticise itl”-—Youth’s Companion.
