To the Editor of the Herald =

TO the LdttOr Of the Herald -
In response to your editorial of the 9Th
inst, entitled "Squeaky Shoes and in
answer to your inquiry, "Cannot some
one suggest method Of supprcssing the
squeaky shoes that are peculiar to this
season of the year?" l boldly answer
Yes" You state that THE man who
will discover and announce an absolute
cure for squcaky shoes will be greater
than he who invents new religion"
desire to announce an absolute cure, >
and confidently expect the greatness YOU
so assuredly predict. Squcaky shoes are
caused by the vacuum between the insole
and the Outsole. Treading ON the sole of
shoe forces the air out Of the vacuum.
which produces the sound we call squeak.
The proof Of this is that so-called turn
ed shoe," having no insole, forms no
vacuum, therefore does not squeak. A
piece of muslin or other similar material.
gummed on both sides, which will adhere
to the inner and outer sole, thus filling
the vacuum, will of necessity prevent the
squeaking. This applies to shoes in pro-
cess of making. Now, as to those which
are already nade-three or four pegs or
brads driven in the ouside between the
shank and the toe, will close the vacuum
and prevent the squeak.
Yours truly, B. G. o.
The shoemaker who makes shoes with
out the squeak deserve all the custom,
and when we find him, he shall have all
of Ours.-N y. Herald.

Earth and Moon,

In recent lecture at Birmingham by
DIR. r. S. Ball, the able Astronomer Royal
for Ireland, and author of little work on
astronomy published lately by Henry
Holt & Co., of New York, is an interesting
sketch of the action and reaction of the
earth and moon, and the effect of this
upon the length of the day. While the
day, said DIR. Ball, was gradually lengthen-
ing through the moons action ON the
tides, the earth reacted on the moon, and
drove it farther and farther away. The
circle described by the moon was, there
fore, gradually increasing, and thus the
day was getting longer and longer as the
moon was receding farther and farther.
If they looked back to earlier periods, the
moon must, therefore, have been closer
and closer to the earth the farther they
went back. At one epoch, which he put
at about 100000 900 of years, the moon
must have been very close to the earth
and then the day, instead of being twenty
four hours, would only be three hours
lung AhO SiOSSA itAiSf hiOOil WIS I'd bHe
earth the more quickly it revolved; and.
looking back to that remote period, they
had the extraordinary state of things in
which the earth was spinning round once
in every three hours, and the moon Fota.
ting once in three hours also. AT that
time the earth was really mass of semi
molten matter, and IL the oceans were
there at all, they were suspended in vapor
around it. DIR. BAH showed that the
nearer the moon tO,the earth the greater
was the rise Of the tide; and he caloula,
ted that when the moon was SO near to
the earth, the tides rqgst baye been PIG
times rs great as at tlIe present time.
Rising $40 feet high, the tides would have
washed oyer the whole of Englaud.-N.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS.

The autum glories took their flight
With bird and bee, from wood and hill;
But In the garden, snowy white
Chrysanthemum are lingering still.
Fure' stainless, cold; no passion gleam
Has warmed their chilling vestal rays;
The sun-gOds kiss wove no sweet dream
OF bloom through all the summer days;
But i'll the latter autumn time
The gathering twilight of the year,
When morning wears vale Of rime-
The tardy buds, round, green appear
And oft the lovely flowers unclose
When wintry storms in might arise;
Perchance amid the drifting SHOWS
Look out their patient. starry eyes
Embems of all our mortal year
IT rightly measured out should be;
Green while life's summer hours are here,
And blooming for eternity.

To the Editor Of the Hsrold.-

10 the Editor Of the Hsrald:-
The remedy for squealy shoes, of which
you speak in recent issue of the Herald.
is to bore two small holes, one inch apart
and one-sixteenth of an inch in depth, in
the centre of the sole of each shoe. Then
fill each hole with drop or two of sweet
oil, and let it soak we'll into the shoe
before using. If the shoe still squeaks,
repeat the remedy; a squcaky shoe always
succumbs to the second dose of sweet oil.

Smyrna times., 1881-12-07
To the Editor Of the Heraid:-

10 the .EdttOr Of the Herdid:-
1t is the friction of the soles that causes
all the shoe squeaking in this world, just
as it is the friction of souls that causes
almost all other sorts of squcaking. If
the shoemaker will take the trouble to
put little pulverized soapstonc between
the inner and the outer soles of the shoes
before they are put together, it will effec-
tually prevent squeaking. 1 suppose dust
OF any sort would answer, but soapstone
