AN IMPRESSION.
—■ r
A cypress dark against the blue,
That deepens up to such a hue
As never painter dared and drew;
▲ marble shaft that stands alone
Above a wreck of sculptured stone
With gray-green aloes overgrown;
A hSI side scored with hollow veins
Through age long wash of summer rains
As purple aa with vintage stains;
And rocks that while the hours run
Show all the Jewels, one by one,
For pastime of the summer sun;
A crescent sail upon the sea
So calm and fair and ripple free
Tou wonder storms can ever be;
A shore with deep Indented bays,
And o'er the gleaming waterways
A glimpse of Islands in the haze;
A face bronzed dark to red and gold
With mountain eyes that seem to hole 1
The freshness of the world of old;
A shepherd's crook, a coat of fleece,
A grazing flock—the sense of peace,
The long sweet silence—this is Greece!
—Rennell Rodd.
Indefensible Injustice.
About one-fifth of all males in Massa
chusetts 'average less than $1 per day.
The females working at this low scale of
wages comprise 72.94 per cent, of all the
workers. No intelligent reader will fail
to realize what this fact means. As the
scsjle of wages rises the number of fe
males enjoying them grows steadily less.
Of a total of 7,257 workers receiving $20
a week and over, only 268 are females.
The figures simply show that in the em
ployments in which the very lowest
wages are paid women constitute over
70 per cent, of the workers, while in tho
employments where as high as $20 a
week are paid they constitute hardly
over 8 per cent.
In addition to all this is the humiliating
fact that in the same occupations, stand
ing side by side with men, the females
are paid less wages for the same work;
or, what amounts to the same thing, a
woman of 20 years or upward is made to
work side by side with a boy of 10 at the
same wages. Women are compelled,
then, to fill most of the cheap places,
and paid less wages for the same work
at that. We have no hesitation in saying
that this is an indefensible injustice, and
one so gross as to shame civilization.
Why do legislators sit passively under
such discriminations of sex in the matter
of work and wages? Simply because
they know that the women carry no
votes, and that mere sentiment, however
just, can neither seat nor unseat a poli
tician. But it will not always be thus.
—Boston Globe.
An Odd Bird That Likes Fishing.
Away up on the mountain side, where
the numerous streams find their way
through deep, dark canons down to the
pulse beat of old ocean, is the natural
summer home of the water ousel, the
strangest of all strange birds. You sel
dom see more than one of them at a
time. They are of a dark blue color,
and are easily recognized by a peculiar,
quick, jerking motion, which they never
seem to tire of. And as they flit from
rock to rock they are continually bob
bing up and down, performing such a
polite little courtesy as would cause you
to smile to see it.
Owing to their peculiar habits and the
isolated spots they select to build their
nests no one but the most ardent sports
men and naturalists succeeds in finding
them. Hence a water ousel's nest, with
two of their eggs in it, has a commercial
value among nest collectors of $25. They
always build their nests just back of
some waterfall or under some overhang
ing bank, where they have to go through
or under the water to get to it.
Another strange habit of this bird is
the deliberate manner in which they ap
pear to commit suicide. They will start
Blowly, very slowly, to wade right down
into the water until they disappear from
view, but if the water is clear and you
have a sharp eye you can still see their
little dark forms clinging to the bottom
in search of their morning repast, which
consists of periwinkles.—Tacoma Led
ger. ,
Coating for Plaster Casts.
Hitherto in the galvanic coating of
plaster casts there has been a difficulty
in stopping the pores of the surface so
effectually as to prevent the galvanic
bath penetrating into the interior of the
plaster and there producing first crystal
lization and then disintegration. This
obstacle appears to have been overcome
by the discovery that saturation in tan
not only closes up the pores of the plas
ter, but adds very considerably to its
strength. Specimens so prepared have
been covered with copper one millimeter
thick, a thickness which is not only suf
ficient to resist atmospheric influences,
but which enables the surface to be fur
ther worked up and finished by hand.
The price of a cast coated with copper is
said to be one-fifth of the cost of a copper
casting.—New York Commercial Adver
tiser.
Dessert Every Other Day.
"I (hlnk yon may send me a quart of
huckleberries,'' said the landlady to the
uiarketrnan, as she looked about for bar
gains iv wilte 1 eggplants.
"Have you many boarders, ma'am?"
he asked mildly.
"Nine."
"Isn't a quart of berries rather—rather
light for nine?" he ventured.
"Not with me," she snapped. "Four
of my boarders don't eat huckleberries
for breakfasu nod five don't eat bananas,
so I alternate and ketch half either
way."—New York Tribune.
FATE COULD NOT HARM.
The Feeling of Security of a Man Whose
Life Was Insured for 840.
They are tearing down old houses all
over the city to make room for the more
modem house. While those houses are
being demolished there is usually a class
of people who crowd around, eager to
pick up tho stray pieces of wood which
«omo in their direction. Colored people
generally predominate in this class, and
many a family is thus supplied with
fuel. While tearing down a house in
tho northwest section of tho city re
cently the workmen were very much
bothered by these "wood hustlers," fes
they term them.
The "wood hustlers" in this case were
composed, with but one exception, of
small negroes. This exception was an
old negro who had one leg shorter than
the other, and wan nearly bent double,
but whether with ago or not no one
knew. He looked as if he had worked
hard all his life, but appearances are de
ceitful.
The workmen became so Inoenbed at
the "wood hustler*" that they drove
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: THURSDAY MORNTNG, OCTOBER 23, 1890.
tnem ail away excepting the old man.
After a while the old man became more
bold, and endangered himself in trying
to get pieces of wood. One of the work
men spoke to him about it, telling him
he would be hurt if he persisted in get
ting in the way. The old man mumbled
out something, but paid no attention to
the warning.
Finally he got close to the wall and
stooped to pick up a piece of beam. Just
as he was stooping a brick fell in front
of him, and he narrowly escaped being
hit. Seeing this a workman yelled:
"Look out, ole man, or you'll be
killed."
"I doan't kare," replied the old man,
and he continued to confiscate all the
wood that came withinhisreach. Again
he barely escaped being hit with another
brick, and again the workman shouted:
"I done tole yer onst to git away from
dere. The fust thing you know you
won't know nothing."
"I doan't kare," reiterated the old
man, looking around for more wood, and,
seeing some in the interior of the build
ing, he went for it. He had hardly
passed the door when a heavy beam fell
in the place he had just vacated, envel
oping him in a cloud of dust. Several
workmen, thinking that the heavy beam
had pinioned the old man to the ground,
jumped down to render all the assist
ance possible. Imagine their surprise
when, on reaching the place, they found
the old man gathering the wood as un
concernedly as though nothing had hap
pened. The workmen were speechless
for a while and then one said:
"Look a' har, ole man, you'll have to
git out o' this. We don't care 'bout
losin' time er carryin' yer korpus through
the street."
The old man looked contemptuously
at the speaker, and then said in a don't
give-a-continental tone:
"G'way, niggers; I don't care. I jist
had my life 'sured fo' forty dollars." —
Washington Post.
Discoloration of the Skin.
Between the cuticle—the epidermis,
that is, or scarfskin—and the true skin
is a layer of cells which secrete from the
blood a dark coloring matter. The
black races have this feature most fully
developed, but even the lightest aire not
wholly destitute of it.
Its complete absence characterizes the
albino, giving us occasionally a chalk
white negro, the hair, of course, partici
pating in the defect. As this pigment
is also wanting in the albino's choroid
coat of the eye—normally a dark back
ground for tho retina, and essential to
clear vision—he is nearly blind except at
night.
There is often a local absence of pig
ment, causing white patches on the
limbs and different parts of the body.
Such a patch on the head may give rise
to a solitary white lock amid a full head
of dark hair.
Some parts of the skin are naturally
darker than the rest, and the darker
color may extend far beyond the usual
limit and still be purely physiological,
but dark colored spots often appear on
the body as a result of some diseased
condition or of exciting causes.
The simplest and commonest of such
spots are known as freckles. Their re
mote cause is a peculiarly sensitive skin;
their direct cause is the light and heat
of the sun. Persons with fair skin and
hair are most subject to them. Tile pig
ment, which in others is uniformity dis
tributed, seems to gather into small
rounded spots.—Youth's Companioin.
Badly Crippled.
A party of Americans, including three
or four boys and girls, were not loug
ago visiting an ancient church in »
French provincial city. An aged beadle
showed them the objects of interest.
"Whose portrait is thisr" asked one of
the girls, indicating an ancient canvas
upon which the face and form of a man
in armor could barely be made out.
"That," said the beadle, after stopping
to take a pinch of snuff, "is the "celebrat
ed Grand Duke Anatole, the founder of
the church."
"Was he a great soldier?"
"Yes; but he had the misfortune to
lose a leg or an arm in every battle in
which he took part."
"How many battles did he take part
in?" asked one of the boys.
The beadle, who was expecting a
sneeze, looked skyward a minute, then
sneezed violently, used his handker
chief, and answered:
"Twenty-four!"— Youth's Companion.
A Sagacious Collie.
On Saturday forenoon, while a gentle
man was being driven in his private car
riage past the Cross, Paisley, a little girl
ran in front of the horse and would in
evitably have been seriously injured but
for the sagacity of a large collie dog
which was running behind the carriage
and saw the danger. The animal seized
the child's dress and actually swung the
little one round about in his efforts to
extricate her from her perilous position.
She was knocked down, but was not
much hurt.—Pall Mall Gazette.
A Vicious Rooster.
Frank Werren, who lives in Shamo
kawa, Ore., had a little child almost
killed by a rooster the other day. The
rooster ia of the Leghorn variety and
very vicious, and never hesitates to at
tack any one that comes within its reach.
The child, which is about a year and a
half old, was out in the yard, when the
rooster attacked her, knocking her down
and inflicting with his spurs two deep
gashes over the left temple and making
an ugly wound over the right eyeball.
Had the rooster struck her a little lower
it would probably have ruined the eye
sight of the left eye. The child will re
cover.—Chicago Times.
