The Huron Expositor, 1882-06-30, Page 6° ) 11Caa and insects. i TheHonly nerves (worth mentioning) in the human body whit& are not un- der the control of the brain are those of the heart and other internal organs; and . over these parts, as everybody knows, we heve , not any voluntary power. But all oar limbs and muscles are moved in accordance with the im- pulses sent down from the brain, so that, for example when I have made up my mind to send a telegram to a friend rnylegs take me duly to the tele- graph office, iity hand writes the proper message, and my tongue undertakes the necessary arrangements with the clerk. But in the insect's body there is no such regular subordination of all the Parts composing the nervous system to a central organ or head office. The largest knot - of nerve matter, it is true, is generally to be found in the neighborhood. of sense organs, and it receives direet nerve bundles from the eyes, antennae mouth, and other chief adjunct parts; but the wings and lege are moved by separate knots or nerve cells , connected by a sort of spinal cord with the head, capable of acting quite iedependentlY on their own account. Thus, if we out off a wasp's head and stick it on a needle in front of some sugar and water, the mouth will greed- ily begin to eat the sweet syrup, appar- ently unconscious of the fact that it has lest its stomach, and that the food is quietly dropping oat of the gullet at i tke other end as fast as it i wallowed. So, too, if we decapitate that queer Mediterranean insect, the praying mantis, the headiese body will stand catehing flies with its outstretched arms, and fumbling for iti3 mouth when it has caught one, evidently much sur- prised to find that ' its head is una,c- counts,bly missing. In fact, whatever may be the case with man, the insect, at least, is really a, conscious automa- ton. It sees or smells food, and it is at once impelled by its nervous constitu- tioa to eat it. It receives a sense-im- peession from the bright hae of a flower, and it is irresistibly attracted towards it, as the moth is to the candle. It has no power a deliberation, no ability even to move its lirabs in unaccustomed manners. Its whole life is governed for it by its fixed nervous constitution, and by the stimulations it receives from outside. And eo, though the world probably appears much the same to the beetle as to us, the tature of its life is very different. It acts like a piece of mechanism, wound up to perform a cer- tain number of fixed movements, and incapable of ever going beyond the nar- row circle for which it is designed.— Grant Allen, in Knowledge. A True Picture of Chinatown a in 'Frisco. Alleys ifl whick the Sun never Penetrates —Filth, and Squalor—Working Sixteen out of Twenty -Four Hours. (From the New York Truth.) I propose, with the reader's permis- sion, to take him on a trip into that famous slum Chinatown in San Fran- cisco, which shall be directed by neither the interested oiceropage of a Colonel Bee,nor the unprincipled sensationalism of *flash writer. The windows of ,St. James palace look oat nponane of the foulest purlieus of London. In the same way, .the dealiest alum on the American con- tinent exists almost -within a stone's throw of- the pretentious palaces in which soma of the lordliest millionaires of the continent are housed. Chinatown consists of two main streets, Washington and Jackson by name, half a dozen .amaller streete, and a network of alleys, passages, and no - thoroughfares, besides which the old -Paris which Baron Hausman has ren- dered only a legend, was a legion of palaces and stately ti.venues. In its en- tirety, Chinatown forms a solid section cf San Francisco some half a dozen blocks lona by two broad. The main streets of • Chinatown are innocuous enough to view. They are lined by many large and substantial stores of masonry and iron, and though their ensemble is barbaric by reason of the people one meets, the businesses carried on, and the evidences of foreign taste and habit, contributed by store displays and queer signs, they are alto- gether bright enough and harmless enough to create rather a pleasing fin - pression on the civilized eye. They are but the walls of the sepul- chre, heweeer. Pass, behind them, and the corruptionthey hide will speak for itself to every sense which is the, attri- bute ef decent men. Theeramificagoas citChittatown's by- ways are indeseribablet Winding ways have been bellowed through the hearts of bloakit as rats, bore their way through olid walls. From serpentine alleys others branch out to end nowhere. So tangled and oat up is the district by these passages that it requires an expert to ftnd his way aboat in broad day- light. At night navigation is a matter of skillmany of the denizens themselves do not possess. Overhead the houses are built out, story beyond story, as in a mediatval city, until the roofs almost meet. Upon the architecture of the American build- it, er, the invader who has populated the ye district has grafted his own carpenter work until the common -place forma of the old houses which he took possession of when the Caeleasian abandoned them have entirely disappeared: The lanes and alleys of Chinatown are simply so many lanes and alleye in. Pekin for any trace they reveal of their original con- dition in the hands of the white man. Within, as without, all the original architectural characteristics of the house have vanished. Ordinary rooms have *been partitioned off into sombre ken- nels, affording just enough space for movement between the banks which hue the walls. Cellars have been exca- vated under the old cellars, and houses built upon the roofs. Many of the buildings were, in the old days, hand- some residences, with quite lofty par- lors and dining rooms. In these flying- iloors have been erected. That is, half way to the ceiling a plank floor, sap- poited by wooden pillars, has been laid, so that two floors have been creat- ed out of one, and these are both divid- ed and. sub -divided by partitions, till the whole house resembles nothing Bo much as a great anthill. There are houses, originally of ten rooms, which new contain half a dozen times as s n many. I know one, whose builder 1 to s divided it into three stories of four 1 but rooms eaoh, which has now under the I buil same roof seven stories, cut up into I bail ninety rooms. On the parlor floor pen three stories have been made of one. , 1 pia Life ininferiene in every hole and corner atte of this vast barracks. Wherever a human being 0941 be squeezed, one is found. Disease and such health as can exist in such a place lie cheek by jowl. The scales of the leper fall upon the sound Man in the bunk below him. Fantilies find room in dens which could be set down inside an ordinary New York hall bedroom. Only the very aris- tocrats of Chinatown enjoy the luxury of single apartments. The colonists of Chinatown resemble, in their dense gregariousness, nothing so much as the I vermin which prey upon them. I Of course, under such conditions, cleanliness is an impossibility, even where it is a desideratum with the teeming thousands who gorge China- town with unhealthy life. The alleys are deep with offal; the house walls exude a herrible moisture, a species of death damp which breeds a slimy, greenish -black fungus everywhere it touches. Through the narrow gap the house tops leave between them the sun never reitches the sidewalks, which are slippery, with - damp. Indoors a crust of grime scales from walls and eeilings, and floors are literally carpet- ed with foot -beaten filth. This filth has penetrated every pore of China- town, and though in certain spots it maybe gilded, it is still underneath and needs bat a scratch to be revealed. The industries of Chbeetown are ad- justed upon the same sordid and econo- mical basis as its method i of existence. Everything, from the house he lives in and. the food he eats, to the work he does, is tested by Ah Sin o its utter- most capacity. The shoiamakers and tailors who people many of the cellars, toil sixteen hours out of , the twenty- four, and sink upon theit benches to slumber, as soon as they drop their work. They devour their nice and their morsel of fish between the strokes of the hammer and the sOches of the needle. The digarmalters only rest with midnight, the carpenter lays his tools by long after white Oradtemen are asleep. In short, the only division they make between working and resting time is that created by the fact that theycan work no more. The enslavement of man for purposes of labor is denounced by all civilized statutes as a crime. What can then be said of the enslavement of women for purposes whose very name is a shame upon mankind Yet this alavery exists and flourishes in Chinatown, openly, by broad day. The purchase and sale of women to garrison the brothels is ee common a transaction almost as the transfer of merchandise. There are dealers in women in China and San Francisco, who prosecute their business as sys- tematically and as fearlessly as if it were the most legitimate commercial enterprise in the world. I have alluded to the absolute absence on the part of the average Chinaman in America of the domestic element,. They marry, but solely for purposes of econ- omy or lust; and marriage, ae perform- ed among them, imposes no obligation on the husband which he considers binding. The reason for this is,chieflyethe most of them have left families abroad, to whom they intend to return, and mar- riage here is but a temporary conveni- ence. This has given rise to the busi- ness of providing women for a market in which they rate as 80 much mer- chandise with a regular scale of values fluctuating with eircurnstaeces. • Neatness on the Farm. On the road between my home, in the country, and the village where I go to trade; is one of tile largest and best farms in the neighborhood. Its !soil is rich, and its location is unexception— able. But, for all that, we never take visitors to see it when we are showing them the model farm of this locality. A passing glance, as we drive by, seems to satisfy thenaand they never ask to stop. The reason for this is, the man who owns what might be the finest farm in this whole section of the country is a sloeen. He does not take pride in mak- ing this place pleasant and attraotive as well as productive. The fences are al- most useless, for so thiek a crop of bushes has grown up along them that if they were to be removed entirely but feetcattle would ever break through. Blackberry and sumach bushes are en- tangled with thistles and mulleins, and year by year they encroach on the field. There is a space of at least tea feet be- tween the ploughed land and the fence, which might be used if the farrier would set shod it and cut dowh the bushes. If you will take your pencil and. estimate how much soil is thus given up to these intruders on a farm of 160 acres, in which four fields, repro- sehting at least half the farm, are bor- dered in this way, you will begin to understend how mach this man loses every year by allowing the, bushes to cumber the soil. And, in addition to this loss ef the use of the soil, the slov- enly appearance of them, which de- tracts from the value of the place, should be counted in. And it is not about tat) fences alone that these bushes are suffered to grow. Every stump has a circle of shrubbery about growing larger and more aggressive arly. Why he does not out them down I do not know. He is a good farmer, in Many ways. He raises good crops, and is making alone*. - But he does not seem to are much about how his farm looks. Whenever he builds a new fence he sets the posts, nails on the boards, and that is the end of it. He never takes the trouble to go over his work with the saw and make the posts of uniform length. Some stick up a foot or two above the top board and some do not, and this ragged lookis anything but pleasing. The labor of sawing them off evenlytis considerable, of course, but by doing it the job has a neat and fin- ished appearance, and the eye is not offended. If this is not done you feel, every time you see it, that something happened which prevented the man's finishing his undertaking, and you wish he would find time to complete it. It is just as easy to make a neat. looking shed as it is to make a botchy - looking ozie. But some farmers Seem to think that a shed is a shed, no matter how it looks, and it would be foolish to attempt to make it look well. I claim that every building on the farm should be made to look as well as possible. It ot necessary to expend much money ecure this end. It requires little good taste. If you are going to d a house, and don't know how to d what you want, you tell your car- ter, or your architect, what your ns are in the general way, and he nds to the details. You trust to THE HURON E.APoSITCR.. his good judgment and his sense of the fitness ,of things. If you, are going to have a barn or a shed built, let him ex- ercise his taste on it. You can restrict him in expense, if you see fit, but don't think, till you have hatred into the matter S that a neat, ttraotive barn costs sd very much tmor than one of the old square, box -like things we are so accustemed to seeing, fo it doesn'ts It isn't so much a ma ter of expense as of taste. One womah will , make i a dress and look like a gni in it, while another will take the same material and fashion one out of it that will look fit foa e parlor. The reason of the dif- fereneelis, one woman has taste, the otherlie.s not. I believe in making the farm a pleasant thing to look at. This can only be done by keeping everything about it orderly and aeat.—Farnter's Review. i ' A Suggestion for the Ladies.' , The taoman living in the country who wishes to prepare for a visit -to somP city, for a pleasure trip or a summea excursion, is oft n very much exercised about what reparatioa she shall Make. She knows fall well that among etrangers she 11 be judged by her dress, and she has th inherent fem- inine desire to look well. She has not much faith bathe local modiste, who outs Hes. A's silk and Mrs: B's ging- ham bythe same pattera, and if she sends far a quantity of fashion iour- nals, she but adds to he perplexities. She reads of toilettes, any one of which costs more than she spends on her en - .tire wardrobe in a year. Dresses, with pearl -embroidered fronts, reception robes trimmed with lace !Forth a king's _ ransom, carriage dresse of velvet and French, phrases so bewilder and astonish her that she is tempted to give up het projected trip, beiaush of "nothing to wear," and aa overpowering sense of her own ignorance andiinebility to travel with more trunks than Anita Louise Cary on a concert our. It is ; fortunate that after :all, the toilette of a lady is not necessarily 'idn grande toilette. It is possible to attend parties„ receptions, the opera, without a display 4.f dry goods which would came the neetspaper Jenkins ' who "doe" fashionttale weddings at, out -Jenkins himself,. It is possible to make three dresses answer every purpose at any place, and still be entirely presentable and always Well dressed. The three dresses Which are eesential are a neat and. pitAty leans° dress. a stylish travel- ing dreee for street wear, and a nic,e black silk, with an adjustable train for very "siviell" occasions. This one silk may be Made to appear in as many forms es the poet soeght the "idol of his thoughtI' t" Given a talent for embroi- dery or aintiegea tablier, or adjustable front my be made for state parties, which shall be elegant as 'the best, and cost but the satiii of which it is com- posed. Velvet or brocade ; may be used in the seine way. With laces, the eor- sage bouquet, now an indiepensable ad- junct, andfresh glover, the wearer - may always appear well dressed, if always in the same dress. It is far better, un- der any pireumetances, to have fewer cheeses, and these of fine roatepal, nice- ly made,and carefully Oared for, than aa abandanee of cheap 'ones which, never nice, are soon andisguisedly shabby'. 'e Ladies who gruieble at the "everlisting making over" required. by the freqnent changes of ,fashion, can manage to have very little -of that work to do, by putting the money they spend on several suits into one really nice one, having it made not in either extreme of the fashion, and then wearing it upon all ordinary occasions, exercising due oare in beushieg and oleanOg it. How a atoman,pan expect her'dresses not to go out of Style when she gets a nice one, hangs it rip in her closet, gets another "to save thet," and perhaps another yet to spare the 'second best, as I have known them to do, is a thing peculiar to feminine intellect. When you get a dress, wear it; that is what it is for, and if you think it is "too good," take that into consideration befere you buy. One nice dress, of serviceable goods, will outwear faur or five sleazy cashmere, cotton poplins and cheap silks, look mice till it is Worn. out, and one may have in addition, the satiefection of al- ways looking well dressed. Shoes, gloves and laces are the et ceteras, that add most to one's appearance. A worn boot under a silk skirt, soiled or ragged laces, or dirty gloves, take. away every bit of "style" from the most elaborate costume, While a plainer suit,with these ,accessoriee in irreproachable order, seems to gain an added elegance. How Sponges are Caught. A correspondent of a New Haven journal tells how they fish ifor sponges in the Bahamas. When a vessel arrives at the fishing -ground it is anchored; and the men in small boats; proceed to look for slionges in. -the water below. The water , is a beautiful light blue color, so clear that sixpence can easily be seen on the white sandy bottom in 35 to 40 feet of water. Of eourse when theta is no Wind a,nd the rsuf ace of the water is still, the sponges are easily seen; but, when a gentle breeze is blow- ing a sea glass is used. A sea glass con- sists of a tsquare pine box about 20 inches. inlength, a pane of glass about 10 by 12 ' inches placed in one end, water -tight. To use it the glass end is thrust into the water, and the face of - the operator is placed clese to the other. • By this means the wave motion of the water is overcome, and the bottom readily seen. Sponges when seen on the bottom attached to rocks. look like a big black bunch. They are pulled off their natural beds' by forked hooks, which are run down 'under the sponge, which is formed like the head of a cabbage, and the roots pulled from the rocks. When brought to the surface it is a mass of eoft glutinous stuff, which to the touch feels like soap or thick jelly. When a small boat load is obtained they are taken to the shore, where a crawl is built, in which they are placed to die, so that the jelly substance will readily separate from the firm fibre of the sponge: These crawls are built by sticking pieces of brush into the Band, out of the water, large enough to con- tain the catch. It takes from 5 to 6 days for the insects to die, -when the sponges are well beaten with small sticks, and: the black, glutinous sub- stance fallsoff, leaving the sponge,after a thorough tvashinge ready for market. To the fishermen gererally, the occupa- tion is not a lucrative one. I am told the wages will hardly average 03 per week, besides board. There is but little diving for sponges, except for a parti- cularly fins bunch which cannot be secured by he hook. LEGAL. P fl„eaRROW & PROUBFOOT, Barristers, Solid - tors, &e., Goderioh, Ontario.—J.
