Smaller than this comes small plea,

Plea is known by the French as Cicero,
because his works were first set up in
this type. The next larger, English, is
for the same reason known as st. Au-
gustine. Brewer was first used in print
ing breviaries, Mnion was so called
because it was the smallest type known.
Nonpareii because the maker thought
that it couldn't be equalled. Pearl was
the production Of an ambitious die cut

Hearing of the Blind.

The blind boys in school know ths
step of all their school fellows with uu.
errins certainty. Thus, boy having
missed his friend at play, he watches for
him as the ranks file past, walking
round the green sward, or marching in
to dinner. He hears the tramp of his
friend amid the din and the scufile Of
the other boys long ere he has reached
him, and pounces upon him with the
same certainty MS though he saw him.
Indeed, the blind speak of hearing As
seeing. If from the sound, they know
that the master has left the room, they
say, Il saw him go out" 1t is a curious
fact that blind people never run up
against each other. ThHs, when play.
ing prisoners base-a game which leads
to some rough jostling, even among
boys gifted with their eyes those sight
