QUAINT BITS OF INFORMATION.

ThE National Toothpick Association claims an output of fifty-two carloads of toothpicks annually. ’ In Spain the tobacco consumption is but 110 pounds annually to each 100 inhabitants. In Austria it is 273. The timber piles under St. Mark’s at Venice are in good condition after carrying that structure 900 years. Best steel castings made for the United States navy have a tenacity of 65,000 to 75,000 pounds to the square inch.

PARAGRAPHS OF INTEREST.

Woolen goods feel warm because wool is a poor conductor of beat, and the goods made of wool contain within their substance large quantities of air, also a poor conductor. Hounds follow a trail better during humid than in dry weather, because the moisture of the atmosphere prevents the dissemination of the odors left by fleeing animals. Hodfs carry straws in their mouths on the approach of bad weather because of an hereditary instinct Wild hogs always make a comfortable bed when rain is coming on. Mrs. William S. Jones, of Waverly, Ohio, has in her possession a goldlined silk velvet coat worn by Lafayette bn his last visit to America. It is profusely decorated. The twinkling of the stars forebodes bad weather, because it shows that th ere are aerial currents of different temperatures, thus probably indicating atmospheric disturbances. A boy’s marble placed in a kettle prevents the encrusting of the vessel because the marble attracts the particles of lime and so prevents the adhering to the sides of the ves eh People wink because the eye must be kept clean and moist, and by the action of the eyelids the fluid secreted by the glands of the eyes is spread equally over the surface of the globe. A WAR between the rival street-car lines of Savannah has been in progress all summer, and fares have gradually been reduced until one of the lines has announced three rides for one cent.

RENSSELAER JASLER COUNTS INDIANA, FRIDAY NOVEMBER 30 1894

HE WANTED KICKING.

It W»< an Old Trick, bat He Had Tumbled Into It. It ' as evident that something had gone wrong with an oldish man, who came in on a Lake Shore train from Toledo yesterday, says the Det oit Free Press. He looked all around the depot until he found a policeman, and then began to unburden himself by saying: “1 want you to look at this Canadian $lO bill.” “Yes, sir.” replied the officer as he reached for it “I don t see much <anadian money, but I shouldn't care to take this bill for a goad one. Have you a,ked anyone about it 9 ” “The conductor said it was bad." “Let’s see the ticket agent. ” They walked over to the window, to be told that it was not-efen a g >od counterfeit, and t e officer a ked the stranger: “Did. you take it for good money :" “Say! How easy it is for a man to make a fool of himself?” exclaimei the other. “I thought I knew enough to fall off a fence when the top rail broke, but I don’t I haven’t got the sense of a barn door. I ought to be sent to an idiot asylum for a term of five years." “How did it happen?” queried the officer. “A chap came into my car and asked me if I could give him charge for a $5 bill. That is the bill. He had on goggles and reemd to have sore eyes, and 1 took it that he thought the ten was a five.” “Chance to make $5,” laughed the officer. “Of course. lam an honest man, but I couldn’t let that chance slip. I counted him out five o, es in greenbacks and put this in my pocket After he got off at Wyandotte I began to be suspicious and showed the bill to the conductor. Ever hear of the trick before?” “About a hundred times.” “And I’ve been takin’ a daily paper for fifteen years and am accounted the sharpest man on fakes in our town. V ent right at it an i beat myself with my eyes wide open. Say, have you got a machine around hero?” “What sort of a machine?” “A kicking machine—one that runs by steam — ,000 horse power—kicks a thousand times a minute—lifts a b'amed fool twenty feet high at every kick.” The officer had to tell him that no such machine had yet been invented, though in uiied for almost every day, and the man went o up Jefferson avenue to see if he couldn’t find a beer wagon to run over him.

Footsore Fagin’s Dangerous Ride.

The passengers on train 21 on the Falls branch of ti e Central Hudson, which left this city Monday evening at 5:25 o’clock, were the witnesses of an amusing incident which occurred at Murray station. When the train stopped at that station, the brakeman, who was standing on t e platiorm steps, heard tne sound of a man’s voice from beneath the car. He told the conductor of his discovery, and soon the entire crew were on the scene looking for the owner of the quivering tenor. Falling on his knees and looking under the car the trainman recoiled at the sight which met his gaze. Sitting on the car truck was a man. He was hanging on to the truck with all his might, and was relieving the monotony of his ride by singing, "I Had But Fifty Cents. ” The trainman grasped him by the collar and pulled him from his perilous position. He stood him upon his feet, and then the crowd which had gathered began to guy the brave knight of the road. He said that ha chose the truck of the last car because it was softer than the others. When the trainmen asked him his name he replied, “Wea-y Willie.” and then boated away into dreamland. Another shake ser ed to waken him. He was intoxicated, and after the train departed he walked over to a fence corner and laid his v eary head on a stone and slept the 1 e < of the innocent.—i.ochester Democrat.

The Peanut of Commerce.

According to the United States Consul at Marseilles the ever-popular but humble peanut is an important article of food and commerce in France. ‘ The best nuts,” he says, “yield about 50 per cent, of oil in weight at the first crushing, and from 12 to 13 at the second. The oil is worth in Marseilles from nearly $9 to over $lB per quintal. This oil is largely devoted to the manufacture of white soap. It is also used as food, principally, however, on salads, and as one of the constituents of margarine. ” Another use of the oil is for illuminating purposes. It is reported to be a “very good” illuminating fluid. The crushed meal is used for stock f ed. The shells alone have no market value. The nuts sell in the Marseilles market for about $ i to $6.37 for 2-5 ’ ounds. Th s s another industry which the South is neg ecting, and which appears to be important enough to demand attention. France alone imported 300,000,000 pounds of “goobers” last year.

Where Was He Brought Up?

Who says there is no American language? Harper’s Magazine gives the following story as evidence that in some portions of our land a tongue is spoken that is distinctively our own. Professor F., of Harvard, tells the tale. He was at a picnic, and a ter the affair was well under way a c •■- I enter, a sturdy J ew-Englander, appeared on the scene with several planks, out of which he proceded > ; construct the dinner tables. Noth. ' ' the thickness of the planks, the IT■>■ fe-sor cha'flngly inquired why it w s necessary to use such heavy timber. “Why?” returned the carpente “Why, in order that not when dinner s half eat tables might squash and vietu’es leave us.” I It was some hours before the Profesor was able to translate this satisfactorily, but he finally discovered that it could be done.

Won His Race.

It is told of President Casim ri’erier that when he returned to his i chateau, at Pont Sur-Seine. la-t year, 1 wu le President of the Chamber, (one ‘ of the men at a country fair asked him if he remembered when he used to run . races with the child en of the ne g .- borhood. “Yes,” replied the futu > I resident, “and I have not forgotten h w. I bet you 20 sous,” taking off hH coat, “that 1 can beat you to yond. r pole.” The bet was accepted, and M. Uasimir-Perier won it with ease.

MISSING LINKS.

Tea is cut every forty days the year around in Japan. D onds, so small that 1,500 go to tne carat, have been cut in Holland. A Kentucky court recently deliberated three days, at a cost of $2 <•, up n the ownership of sll worth of pine scrub land. In Sun Francisco a King's Dau liters Circle is composed of eight < hinese w< men, two Japanese, two Syrians and two Americans. The piles of old London bridge, driven s o years before, were found to be in goid condition when the new bridge was erected in I b 59. Tm Engineering and Mining Jour nal thinks we shall soon be competitors with English manufacturers of Iron and steel in foreign markets. The hygienic congress at Buda-l’esth brought out the fact that there are four times as many meu who stammer as there are women so afflicted. Behanzin’s crown, from Dahomey, has just been placed in the anthroiiological collection in the Louvre. It is of burnished copper, garnished with precious stones, and is of colossal size. A bust of Herod the Great, believed to be authentic, was recently discovered at Jerusalem. It was bought by the Russian government for the Hermitage Museum at St. Petersburg. What promises to be an exceedingly rich gold-bearing reef has been discovered at Sudest, British New Guinea. Coal deposits have also been recent'y found, and the island promises to develop great wealth.

SCIENCE CLIPPINGS.

In what are called “looming mirages" distant objects show an apparent extravagant increase in height without alteration in breadth. When the skull of a man who has died of delirium tremens is opened the gas which escapes can be ignited and burns with a bluish, alcoholic iiamo. The largest mammoth found in Siberia measured 17 feet long and 10 feet in height. The tusks weighed 3(>o pounds. The head without the tusks weighed 414 pounds. A trade journal says the foundation of good past 3is good flour. The best white wheat flour is the cheapest in the end, as it goes farther and works smoother. To make a bucket of paste take about four pounds of sifted wheat our and stir in enough lukewarm water to make a stiff batter. Keep on stirring until all lumps disappear and the batter is smo.th. Then j our in boiling hot water briskly until the batter swells and has a cooked appearance. When ready to use thin down with cold water until it can be spread on the paper easily.—St. Louis Republic.

Holmes as a Hymnologist.

The great group of early American poets no longer exists. Brvant i 17.4187.>), Emerson (1803-1882', Longfellow (1807-1892), Lowell (1819-1891’, Whittier 180 -1892), and Holmes (1809-1894), constituted that group. All were contributors to hymnology, arid all save Whittier were Unitarians. Longs How wa- the author of eight hymns, although he never sought to be a hymnist. He was the translator of a German hymn by Simon Dach (1605165 >), of Luther’s “Ein Feste Burg,” a few of the hymns of Frederick von Lo a i (1604-1655), a vesper hymn of the Greek Church, and a Latin hymn. Erne son wrote two hymns. Jamas Russell Lowell wrote none, although two selections from his severely Intellectual poetry have been used as such. Whittier affii med that he was not a hymnist, for the reason that ho knew nothing of music. Few of his pieces were written for sing;ng. He did not claim that he had succeeded in comp sing a hymn, yet thirty three selections have been compiled rom his poems as hymns. He outranks in this respect all the greater New England oets. Oliver Wende 1 Holmes wrote seven hymns.—Boston Transcript.

NewDigi ni for Paper Currency. The Treasury Department at Washington is preparing to spend between $50,090 ana SIOO,OOO to give the people of the United States a more artistic paper currency. Of course, any estimate of the possible cost of the changes in design of the treasury notes and certificates is necessarily vague and unsatisfactory. And to abillion-dollar country the amount to be spent is small if it were $200,000, considering th • results to be attained. But the great American public usually wants to know of any public work just what it cost; and as nearly as an estimate can be formed at the present time, the reform inaugurated under Secretary Carlisle by Chief Johnson, of the Bureau o Engraving and Printing, will cost t least $50,0,0. There are thirtynix designs to be changed eventually; though the present plan contemplates the experimental change of but six ilie designs for the silver certificates f the denominations of sl, $2, $5, sl., 5 i and SIOO. If these changes are acceptable to the public, the others will I .flow.

If the Earth Were Divided.

The share of land falling to each inhabitant of the globe, in the event of a partition, might be set down at 23. acres. The land surface of the globe contains, as nearly as possible, •',000,000.000 acres, which, divided among the 1,5,0,000,000 inhabitants which the world contains, according to the lat st estimates, would give to ■ a h ' f them the above named quantit . Taking the entire population of the world, there are nearly twentyuitie inhabitants to every square mile. The following figures snow the number of persons omitting fractions: to a s uare mile in the various divisions of the globe: Europe, 88; Asia. 4(1; Africa, 18; North America, 9; South America, 4; Oceanic and Polar regions, 2.

Fat Girls and Hominy.

In the dietary for girls who are trying to get thin hominy may be used as a substitute for potatoes, bread, and breakfast cereals. Boiled fine hominy, with I.utter, crushed fruit, sauces, elly or milk, is fine, provided it is i ooked right: cold hominy, formed in diamonds, squares or balls, and fried in boiling lard, doughnut fashion, beats all the potatoes ever mashed, : nd the gr ddle cake that could compare with a corn cake has yet to turn up. hominy gives the muse’es elasticity, the body strength and the brain vigor, and it is not flesh-forming.

GRAINS OF GOLD.

Covet all, lose all. A fat chicken makes a lean will. A MAN in debt is stoned every year. A young man idle, an old man needy. A spur in the head Is worth two in your heel. A bird is known by its note, a man by his talk. The devil is always polite upon first ac jualntance. Bacchus has drowned more men than Neptune. The rich man’s foolish sayings pass for wise ones. A penny worth of mirth is worth a pound of sorrow. A GOOD word for a bad one is worth much and costs little. Spiritual dyspepsia Is harder to cure than the other kind. F you want your life to be a success, never take a stand against the truth. A SLUGGARD takes a hundred steps because he would not take one in due time. THE/devil will never lose hope as long as he has an army of moderate drinkers. Some people seem to stop being religious the moment they can t have their own way. There are plenty of people who are very pleasant while they can have their own way. The devil would soon be on the run If one-talent people would do all the good they could. Not until we have begun to lay up treasure In beaven do we sincerely want to go there. Look the world honestly In the face, with an equal manly sympa.hy for the great and the small It is to be regretted that people who would have done thus and so if they had been there never get there. Esteem cannot be where there is no confidence; and there can be no Confidence where there is no respect. This old world is so full of beauty that a man has to shut his eyes and walk In the night time not to bee it. Humor usually tends towards good nature, and everything that tends toward good nature tends tpwurd good grace. Value the friendship of him who stands by you in the storm; swarms of insects will surround you In the sunshine. Vices have their place in nature, and are employed to make up the warp of our lives, a< poisons are useful for the preservation of our health. » Every day is a little life, and our whole life is but a day repeated. Those therefore that dare lose a day are dangerously prodigal; those that dare misspend It are desperate. It Is hard to personate and act a part long; for when truth is not at the bottom, nature will always lie endeavoring to return and will pass out and betray herself one time or other. For our own self-culture we can never afford to evade responsibility; If we do, we lessen our influence and weaken our character. In one sense we never can evade It, for In refusing one we take another.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

The Buddhists nave thirty-two hells. One ton of coal yields 10,000 feet of gas. In Denmark the loftiest mountain is said to be only 535 feet high. Pigeons have been used as mail carriers for about seven hundred years. Every square mile of the sea contains 120,00u,0u0 tish of various kinds. In the coldest part of Siberia the ground is frozen to a depth of 620 feet. It is said tnat about 10,000 gross of pens are produced from a ton of steel. A human body, when cremated, leaves a residuum of about eight ounces. The British Isles comprise no fewer than one thousand islands and islets. The longest verse in the Bible is the ninth verse of the eighth chapter of Esther. MasSACHUsh.s is said to be the great shoe producing commonwealth of the world. Astronomers claim that the temperature of the planet Neptune reaches 900 degrees below zero. Anatomists say that the average weight of the circulating blood of the body is about twenty-eight pounds. I r has been discovered that t>e weight required to crush a square inc i of brick varies from 1,200 to 4.5u0 pounds. It is alleged that in the Ukwine, in Russia, women do all the courting, and propose to the men they desire to marry. The skin of the whale is thicker than that of any other fish. In some places it reaches a thickness of several inches. Bullion is, properly, uncoined gold and silver in the mass; but the word i» sometimes used to denote gold and silver coin. At the time Shakspeare wrote his p ays there were not in all the world as many English-speaking people as there are now in New York and New Jersey. Every time a cigar dealer takes a handful of cigars from a box and spreads them out before acustomer, be violates < ne of the most stringent laws of the United States. Algeria, which has 2,500,000 acres of cork forests, of wnich 300,000 acres are made to yield regular crops, is c aimed to be the greatest cork-pro-ducing country in the world.

The Way to Walk.

Try and be quiet when you walk, says a physical culturally; d n't wab ble, don’t beat the air, don’t shuffle the shoulders; dont fancy yourself a whirligig. Keep to a narrojv base when walking, and not by any ‘ breadth” or sidewise movement interfere with other pedestrians. How tired all those people look! The r faces are haggard and drawn; their backs ache; tneir nerves are unstrung, and their brains are muddled. All this is the result .of mal-poise and waste of nene force through misdirected locomotive action. Walking on scientific principles with unimpeded hip and leg action, and otherwise n conservation of energy, is a joy alii.< to the walker and the on-iooken

To the People of Renselaer and Vicinity.

GREETING. The election is now as the World’s Fair numbered with things that are past. But say? iWhat of the long weary evenings which are approaching as fast as the car of time can carry them. The question of most importance that comes up in connection with this thought is, “What shall I do that 1 may gain the most benefit; and have them pass the least burdensome.” The desession of past ages, is that reading, or the exercise of our musical talents are the most beneficial because by so doing we gain the golden fruit of intelligence which only the superhuman power can deprive us of. "We are prepared to furnish you with any books, magazines or newspapers published in this and foreign countries, in any language, at prices that will entirely please you. We also make some very special offers -on tea and coffee. Ours is also the exalted privilege of supplying the public with W. W. Thomas’ pure oil complexion soap.

And unto those who are weary and would rest, we have that which will give you rest unto the uttermost, in the form of Laudemen’s Bros, new adjustable bed springs, for which we are the sole agents for this county. Stepping over as it were the 10,000 grand bargains we are enabled to make you; we will close for this time, close with making an earnest appeal unto the kings and queens of the farm, entreating with them to get our prices on poultry, eggs and butter before contracting elsewhere. We extend a most sincere and hearty invitation to the public to investigate our lines and modes of business.

The Companion's Calendar. The Youth’s Companion, has just published a calendar for 1895 which is a work of art—indeed, th ree works of art in one. Scenes typical of three seasons of the year, Winter, Summer, Autumn, are shown. The first picture rep resents a mother and son pausing in their walk in a snowy field, across which a rabbit is running, i. uch to the amusement of the boy. The artist in the summer scene has pictured three children rowing down a winding river; and were it not for the apples which fill the I an in her arms, one would scarce ly imagine that the graceful girl in the third picture was typical of Autumn. Around tho pictures are grouped the monthly calendars, tied togeth r by ribbons. This attractive calendar and a full Prospectus for 1895 will be sent free upon application, to any one considering a subscription to The Companion . From no other paper can so much entertainment and instruction be obtained for so little money (onlv $1.75 a year). If you subscribe now you will res c"ive the paper until January 1, 1895, and for a full year from that date, including the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Double Numbers.
