ALBANY WEEKLY HERALD: SATURDAY MAY 6, 1895.
THE TWO VISITS.
The kaisor goes to see the czar,
The worl* turns out to seo;
His ret’nue Toilers from afar.
An then the kaiser and the czar
Embrnco in solemn Klee,
An then saloot an hug an kiss.
An both are tilled and soaked in bliss.
SALTING OLD “SALTS.”
W’en I go down to Hiram's place
The woi-r don’t seem to caro;
I neither kiss his hands nor face,
’Twould make ’em luff at Hiram’s place,
’Twould make ’em *ar an tear.
But Hiram says, ess roun ho pokes,
“I’m glad to see ye; how's yer folks?**
I take a look at Hiram’s hogs
An hear how much thoy grow;
This somehow Hiram’s mem’ry jogs.
An ho lets out on them nr’ hogs—
You oughter hear him blow;
If you could only hear him once
You’d hear some ginooluo e’erkunco.
01’ Hiram ho is slow enough.
But none too slow for mo.
For I’m a purty tamo ol’ duff,
An fairly modorit enough.
An jest c/. slow ez ho.
So wo stub bountho whole day long
Until we hear the supper gong.
The kaiser goes to see the czar.
An maybe stops to tea.
But men like czars an kaisers are,
Cooped in the palace of tho czar,
Hain’t no sich times cz wo.
Tho czar and kaiser know no charm
Like loafin roun ol’ Mirum’s farm.

Something About the Stars.
When tho telescope was turned to
the fixed stars, it was found that
many of tho larger stars had com
panions. The groups were classified
ns doublo stars and were careful!
studied.
Doublo stars may ho accounted for
in two ways. Either they are optic
ally double, one star being so nearly
behind tho other that tho two stars
seon in tho telescope produce, as is
ofttimes the case, the effect of a dou
ble star, or the stars are close togeth
or and physically connected.
Sir William Herscliel investigated
tho subject for many years and
found tangible proof of tho mutually
circling motion of many of tho dou
blo stars or binary systems. Ho 'an
nounced in 1802 that they are phys
ically related to each other, revolving
round a common center of gravity,
and proving that the law of attrac
tions hold sway in these remote orbs
Observers havo since pursued the
study with marvelous results. More
than 10,000 double stars have been
catalogued.—Youth’s Companion.
llitilory of tho South Soa Cantu*.
Students of ethnography will be in
terested to hear that Dr. N. B. Emer
son of Honolulu is preparing a. full
• account of tire Polynesian canoe. In
a communication he points out that
the various migrations of tho ancient
Polynesians and their progenitors,
from whatever source derived, must
have been accomplished in canoes or
other craft, and that tho waa, the pahi,
etc., of today, however modified they
muy bo under the operation of modern
arts aud appliances, are tho lineal de
scendants of tho seagoing craft in
which tho early ancestors of the
Polynesians made their voyages gen
erations ago. Ho holds, therefore,
that a comparative study of the ca
noes cannot fail to shed light on the
problems of Polynesian migrations
and relationships.—London Nature.
Danger of Mctupliors In Science.
It was not without good reason
that Bentlmm protested against met
aphors. Figures of speech in gen

danger in science and philosophy.
The title of Mr. Darwin’s great work

Disgruntled Seamen Get a Gentle Rebuff
From President Graut.
“I remember an incident,” says
an American official eorresjiondent,
“that clearly illustrates General
Grant’s character. When-I was in
the navy, some hundreds of sailors of
the better class came to me and
asked to havo some rank given them.
They did not caro about an increaso
of pay, they said, but they wanted
relative rank. I could not do any
thing for them, hut they came sev
eral times and were rather iuportu-
nato, aud I finally led a delegation of
them over to the White House and
let them present their petition to
President Graut in person.
“They told him what they wanted
and argued for a redress of their
grievances plainly, hut forcibly. At
last an old boatswain came to tho
front, and hitching up his trousers
and turning his quid said: ‘Mr. Pres
ident, I can put this ’ero matter so’s
you can seo it plain. Now, hero I ho
a parent—in fact, a father. My son
is a midshipman. He outranks me,
don't you observe! That ain’t right,
don’t you see?’
“Indeedl’said Grant. ‘Who ap
pointed him?’
“ ‘The secretary hero,’ the bo’sun
said, and encouraged by the ques
tion he went oil: ‘It ain’t light, don’t
you seo, that 1 should ho beneath ’ini.
Why, of I was to go onto his ship
the hoy I brought up to obejeuco
would boss his own father! Jest
think of that! An ho has better
quarters ’n 1110 an bettor grub, nice
fui-ii’turean nil that—sloops in a nice
soft bed an all Pint. See?’
‘ ‘Yes,’ the president said, 'yes,
the world it; full of inequalities. I
know of a case quite similar to
yours.’
“Tho old bo’sun gave another
hitch to his lower gear.
“‘I know of nil old follow,’said
General Grant, 'who is a postmaster
of a little town in Kentucky. Ho lives
in a plain way, in a small house.
He is a nice old man, but he isn’t
much in rani;. His son outranks
him more tlmu your son does you.
His son lives in Washington in the
biggest house there, and lio is sur
rounded by tho nicest of furniture
and eats and drinks anything he
takes a notion to. I-Ie could remove
his father from pffico in a minute if
ho wanted to, but ho doesn’t want
to. And tho old man—that’s Jesse
Grant, you know—doesn’t seem to
caro about the inequality in rank.
I supposo I10 is glad to seo his hoy
get along in the world.’
“The old ho’sun looked down at the
carpet and tried to bore a hole in it
with his toe, and his comrades all
laughed at him joyously and slapped
him on the back and filed out in
great glee. It was tho last I over
heard of tho potition or tho petition
ers."—Yankee Blade.

Aristocratic Feet I11 China.
The possession of tho small feet—
or “golden lilies" us they art! called
in Chinese parlance—is a sign of aris
tocracy. A poor man cannot afford
to have his daughter's feet bound. A
woman with compressed feet can
with difficulty earn a living. In a
well to do family one daughter, usu
ally tho most prepossessing, is se
lected /for this dignity. At tho ago of
3 years the bandaging begins. The
torture is extreme, but the little girl
is compelled to bear it and is even
punished by her mother for not walk
ing fast. She is forced to take an oc
casional run, the mother often beat
ing her child to make her run faster.
If allowed to rest, the child’s feet
under the bandaging process would
soon become useless. The shoes worn
by the small footed women cannot be
bought in shops. Each foot being dis
torted into a distinctive and individ
ual shape, the shoe must naturally
be made expressly for it.—New York
Tribune.
do sdme work under the direction of
Superintendent Byrnes and received
from him some instructions in the
business of becoming a detective.
“To accomplish the ends Which we
seek in tho caso in which you aro en
gaged, ’’ said the world - famed rogue
catcher, “it is very important that
no one should suspect what you aro
after, and it is of paramount impor
tance that no one shall suspect that
you ai-o in communication with me.
Now let me give you 0110 of the first
lessons that,a dotectivo loams. It is
not how to detect, but how to avoid
being detected himself. It very often
happens that people who aro play
ing a game for a big pot of money,
and who fear the police will spoil
their game, employ detectives to
shadow every one with whom tliej
aro dealing for fear that they may
be dealing with some ouo who will
expose then- schemes. Tho first tiling
a dotectivo loams to do, therefore, is
to find out whether he is being shad
owed by any ouo olso. To do this is
simple and easy, aud yet most people
not familiar with how to do it would
say, ‘Why, how can 1 find out if 1
am boing watched ?’
"All that is necessary is caution
and a little nerve. Keep your eyes
open for any one whom you suspect
of following you aud never go any
where where your hand would bo
exposed unless you are sure you are
uct followed. If you have jm idea
you are followed, pay uo attention to
tho pei-sou you suspect of following
you. Do not try to escape him, for
that will at once arouso his suspi
cions. Let him follow you, and to
make sure that he is really shadow
ing you after walking a block or two
turn quickly and retrace your steps.
As you pass tho man you suspect
look him squiu-ely in tho eye. Re
peat this operation soveral times,- mid
you will bo bound to make sure
whother or not he is really following
you.
“Of course when you know you
are being shadowed 1 you will do
nothing to reveal what you are real
ly doing until your follower lias
abandoned the chase.”—New York
Herald.

To break a mirror to many persons
indicates the death of the person who
last looked into the mirror, or some
serious injury to that person. T1 1
savage tribes of nearly every country
believed that striking either tho im
ago or the shadow of any person
meant an injury to that person. They
believed that the imago or the shadow
represented the spirit of a person,
and many are the tales told of ma
gicians who inflicted the injuries on
persons they inflicted on their im
ages. To drop a stone into water
where the image of a person was re
flected meant death or some dire dis

stone was supposed to possess the
virtue of preventing drunkenness,

leaves us in doubt as to whether it
was this misplaced confidence or not

An Old Timor Got Down Into Georgia Onoe
AMl Answered Homo QucHtlonH.
A citizen of this place tolls the fol

of mules, tho man claiming to bo
from Indiana, stopped for tlio niglit
with tile citizen’s father. Tho fami
ly had nn Idea that Indiana was
near tlio north pole and naked a
great many questions about the
country. In answer to questions the
Indiana man said:
"Yes, there tlio nights tiro shorter,
but they havo more of them and
they are darker." Ho had seon it so
dark there that you couldn’t see the
headlight of n locomotive 30 feet.
Ho also said it wits a good fish coun
try ; that you could not ride a horse
across u creelt without knocking out
a 2-horse wngott load of fish, but that
lie had only gone fishing once, and
then only caught but otto fislt, and
when lie pulled the fish out of tho
Mississippi river the river fell six
inches.
Ho also said it was a fine timber
country. A few dayB before he left
homo he cut down a tree that meas
ured exactly 100 yards long. He
drove a wedge in the big end, and it
burst entirely open and split a tliick-
et of 300 feet that was so thick that
you couldn’t run a fishing polo into
it ondwayB. The place opened by
splitting tho log wuh then being used
for a wugon road. Ho olso said it

the growth of pumpkin vines, which
grow five feet every hour. Ho suid
it was the host vegetable country in

Why Yawning In Houlthy.
“Not only is it very healthy to
"yawn,"saysa French physician, “but
artificial yawning should be resorted
to in cases of sore throat, buzzing of
the ears, catarrh and like troubles."
It is said to be as efficacious in its
way as gargling the tlu-oat, with
which process it should ho combined.
The reason stated is that during the
act of yawning there is considerable
stretching of the muscles of thephar
ynx and soft palate, which are in
this way put through u sort of mas
sage. Besides this, in the act of
yawning the throat tubes contract
and drive into the pharynx the nut

The Villa Palmieri, which the Queen
will occupy during her visit to Florence,
is not the villa where Boccaccio’s ladies
assembled to tell their tales. The real
locality of the latter is behind the town
of Fiesole. It is, however, very likely
that Boccaccio himself did live for a
time at the Villa Palmieri, which is a

his patent process of preserving the
remains of the dead. It is not em

them, though the bodies muBt lie em

cess takes hold of thorn. The new
idea is to electroplate the wholo
body, and thus preserve to posterity
the noble lineaments of those whoso
estates cut up sufficiently well to al
low the expense. First the body is
embalmed, after which it is dipped
into a bath of nitrate of silver. It
comes from this bath tho color of
polished silver.
After that tho face is subjected to
a regular electroplating dip and
comes out burnished copper, ready
to bo preserved to tho latest genera
tions. In order to insuro perfect suc
cess the face is varnished, aud this is
tho lost operation. The burnished
copper face is then warranted to re
main the same for centuries if treat

Value of Newspaper Advertising.
A curious instance of the value of
advertising is reported from Now
York. There is a physician thore
who advertises largely, publishing
his portrait in the newspapers with
the advertisement. A few days ago
he recoived a letter from the west on
the envelope of which there was not
a word of address, nothing but the
portrait of the man, which had “been
clipped from a paper and pasted on
the envelope. Every clerk and post
man who handled the letter knew
the face and It was forwarded with
out a moment's delay. People read
advertisements, evidently, and re
member what they see there. There
is no such road to notoriety as the
columns of a nowspaper.—New Or
