 We were witness a night or two since to s
 singular transaction-a game of crib between
 a man totally blind and man wholly deaf ard
 dumb Atthis fascinating game both are un-
 usually expert, and the strange contest waB
 watched with interest by numerous spectators.
 The blind man proved victor as he almost ! universally does at this game, though his op-. ponent in this instance is so proficient there in
 that professional sports knowing his prow.- ess, refuse to play with him for consideration, For the information of the curious we will state that the blind man shows his cards, confdens tially to bystander. who tells him in whis-
 per their denomination. He needs never to
 be told more than once, he never failing to re-.
 member the number the number of each card and it's position in relation to each of the rest in his hand,
 But that which afforded us most thought for reflection was, that although the parties had
 never met betore, they at once appeared to have 8 mutual understanding, and copversed with each other almost as readily and rapidly
 as if neither had been deprived of any natural gift. The mute wrote with extraordinary rapid ity using his left hand, while the blind man made himself perfectly understood to his fel- low sufferer by simply indicating with hia dex- ter finger along the table the letters necessary in formation of the words which he desired to use. The scene was truly subject for thoua ht, and one calculated to confirm the belief in that great heavenly law of compensation, where5y person deprived of one natural sense or gifrjs given some other faculty in

WHAT GOES lNTo Your SToMACH.-I
have often wondered what the stomach
must say to itself while an ordinary meal is
coming down. This stomach knows per.
fcctly well what it needs. It asks at break

Of good bread, and baked potato. Now,
just stand BY and see what goes down.
First, = great mass of greasy buckwheat
cakes, now swash of scalding hot coffee,
again buckw heats, more coffee, hot bis
cults, saturated with melted butter, buck
wheats, coffee, sausage, hot biscuit, and SO
on and so on for half an hour. And there
we have an enormous mass of hot. greasy.
indigesiible stuff swimming in hot coffee
The stomach asks for dinner roast beef Or
mutton, with bread, potat.e: and other veg
etxblea' Now, what is the conglomeration
that comes rushing down that red canal?
Turtle soup. fish, beef, duck, plum. pud.

About India Rubber Shoes.

The first pair of India rubber shoes ever
seen in the United States was brought here
in 1890. They were gilt, and were pointed
like slippers of the Chinese mandarin. This
pair, which were handed about as curiosi.
ty, were followed, in 1928, by an impor,a-
ton Of five hundred pairs, which, rough
and III shaped as they were, were eagerly
bought at high prices; and from that time
onward, there was regular importation OF
India Rubber shoes from South America Of
five thousand pairs per annum. It was the
high prices which these shoes commanded.
as compared with the extreme cheapness OF
the raw material, that caused an India rub
Der mania in the Eastern States. A CON-
psny started at Roxbury, Mass, with cap
ital of three hundred thousand dollars, with
extravagant expectations of its stock khollcrs.
The company met with unexpected diff
culties. Shoes made in winter melted as
soon Is the summer came. When exposed
to the cold, they grew as hard Is stone.
And what was worse, no one could tell Of
the winter made shoes whether they would
stand the Summer heats Or not. The com.
pany feared to- manufacture large quan.
tity, since the first hot week in June would
melt the product of eight months labor as
readily as single puir of shoes. The want
of way Of curing Or hardening this sing.
ular substance obliged the -Roxhury com.
pany to wind W its affairs. which ruined a
large number Of the people of Massachu.
