Now, as the party of natives, including Baso, who carried the professor's biggest box, and Grogo, who bore his gun, did not overtake their leader, they concluded that he must have joined one of the other parties, and, as it was impossible to ascertain which of them, they calmly went hunting on their own account!
In its philosophical aspect early Zennism seems to have affinity on one hand to the Indian Negativism of Nagarjuna and on the other to the Gnan philosophy formulated by Sancharacharya. In the discussions of the Zen school after the time of Baso we find the play of the Yangtse-Kiang mind causing an accession of native modes of thought in contrast to the former Indian idealism.
This is, in reality, a very simple problem in proportion, making use of the atomic or molecular weights of the substances in question which are chemically equivalent to each other. The molecular weight of BaSO is 233.5. There is one atom of S in the molecule and the atomic weight of S is 32.1.
"We did not expect you nearly so soon," said Nigel, as they heartily shook hands. "It vas because zee vind freshen soon after ve set sail ant, zen, ve made a straight line for zis port, w'ereas you possibly crossed over, ant zen push down zee coast." "Exactly so, and that accounts for your overtaking us," said the hermit. "Is that the lad Baso I see down there with the crew of the prau?" "It is.
The chemical factor is, therefore, 32.1/233.5, or 0.1375 and the weight of S corresponding to a given weight of BaSO is found by multiplying the weight of BaSO by this factor. The respective factors then become It is obvious that the arithmetical processes involved in this type of problem are extremely simple. It is only necessary to observe carefully the chemical equivalents.
He acted on it at once, but, after wandering back a long time, he did not arrive at any place or object that he had recognised on the outward journey. Meanwhile, as had been appointed, the rest of the party met a short time before dark at the rendezvous where they had lunched. "Where is the professor, Baso?" asked Van der Kemp as he came up.
Cramcapon, quoth the friar, I understand the customs and ceremonies which are used there much better than all the formal stuff, antique postures, and nonsensical fiddle-faddle that must be used with those women, magni magna, shittencumshita, cringes, grimaces, scrapes, bows, and congees; double honours this way, triple salutes that way, the embrace, the grasp, the squeeze, the hug, the leer, the smack, baso las manos de vostra merce, de vostra maesta.
These two lads were about sixteen, I should suppose; the third was younger, a sharp little rascal named Baso, who had been with me a month or two, and had learnt to cook tolerably. He was to fulfil the important office of cook and housekeeper, for I could not get any regular servants to go to such a terribly remote country; one might as well ask a chef de cuisine to go to Patagonia.
Much of our journeying, you see, must be done on foot." Baso, to his great joy, thus became one of the party. We pass over the next few days, which were spent in arranging and packing their provisions, etc., in such a way that each member of the party should carry on his shoulders a load proportioned to his strength.
What weight in grams of impure ferrous ammonium sulphate should be taken for analysis so that the number of centigrams of BaSO obtained will represent five times the percentage of sulphur in the sample? !Answer!: 0.6870 gram.
