Hints to Stammerers.

COMMENCED operations by writing
out very large number of ordinary
sentences, as they presented themselves.
Having examined these sentences one
by one, and knowing well where I
should fail in .uttering them as they,
stood. I sought to devise some method
by which those consOnant initials might
be got rid of, or, at all events. dimin-
ished. 1t struck me that if could con-
trive by any artificial division of the
words composing each sentence, to
bring the consonants at the end of q
division, instead of at the commence
ment, a grand object would be thus
achieved; for consonants at the end of
a word present no special difficulty.

A Blind Inventor.

ONE of the most remarkable men in
this country whom I know anything
about is the blind President of the
Herreshoff Manufacturing Company of
Bristol, r. l., from whom the company
takes its name. He was here this week
to see the Secretary of the Navy. He
is absolutely blind, and yet he invents
and constructs torpedo boats and small
steam vessels for governments in all
parts of the world. His steam launches
glide through the water at the rate of
twenty miles an hour. He has a num-
Der on hand which he wants to sell to
the Government. He builds launch
in which steam can be gotten up in six
minutes, which can be carried on board
ship as an ordinary ships boat, which
will contain coal and water enough to
run 200 miles. Moreover, he claims
that his new boats will not sink. and
that they will therefore serve as life
boats, steam lifeboats! How many
drowned men and women might now
be living if such things really existed on
the great ocean passenger boats. Mr..
HerTeshoff can tell as much about an
ordinary-sized steam launch-her lines,
methodS of construction, ETC., by feel
ing. as others csn by seeing, and he
goes on inventing and building just as
If his eyes were not closed forever. But
he is q tall, big-brained man. who
couldn't help inventing and working if
he tried. Such q man would have to
suffer the loss of more than one of his
senses before his mental efficiency
would be impaired. When he wanted
to build some steam launches for the
Government he came down here to the
navy yard and fel. of the Government
launches to discover their shape and
how they were made. Then he went to
Bristol and made launches suitable for
the Governments use. It is very like

her name WAS SuSdu UT8uG D6l6Vdus
but they called her Etty-ketty; you
would never guess why, and so l am
going to tell you. She was the sweet
est, spryest, most stylish little lady you
ever saw, and boosted nine and one half
birthdays. Perhaps you don't count
the halves, but Susy did. She cele-
brated every half year-think of that!
Only there was difference. There were
the real birthdays, when she had her
parties and presents; and halfway be-
tween them the .sblessed days. when
Sue herself sent a box to the Children's
Home. filed with old toys carefully

: However, this has nothing to do with
our title. They never called Susy
.'Etty-ketty," on those days. 1T was
a pet name," brother Noll said--who
went to the academy and learned slang
quite as readily as Latin or Greek
fused only when Sue rode her high
horse: or, in other words, when she was
trying to do Aunt Pomeroy." 'High
horse may refer to the one used at the
siege of Troy; when mamma frowned
at the slang Nou always insisted it was
classical. Be that as it may, "doing
Aunt Pomeroy'' meant little Sues at
tempts to initiate that lady's grand airs
and elegant manners. Matter-of-faet
papa, quiet, busy mamma, boisterous
Noll, slow little Bess, even loving Cousin
Kate, were all content to be SO very
commonplace. They never cared to
know what was proper, and stylish. and
fashionable. But she 'tgazed, wondered
and admired,'' every single minute Aunt
Pomeroy was in the house. ,au.
And then she s.did" it. ..;
The trouble was, the others would
smile so provokingly whenever she
tried to be real extra polite; and when
she went out with mamma everybody
treated her like a little girl of whom

self.

Dengue, or ssBroken Bone Fever"

DENGUE, or broken-bone fever, also
known as "dandy fever "bucket
fever." land "bouquet fever,p is said to
have made its first appearance as a NAL
ady in the West Indies in 1927, at which
time it was also communicated to the
southern part of the United States.
The disease. as has previously been
stated, received the name s. dengue"
from the rSpaniards of the West India
Islands, from their word dengue, de-
noting prudery, which expresses stiff
Mesa pain in the bones and stiffness
of the body being the principal features
of the sickening disease.
During the past few months reports
have come from every quarter in the
Southern States regarding the preva-
lence of this troublesome but not neces-
sarily fatal disease. But few, if any,
deaths have been made known from its
effects. Nearly every citizen of Savan-
nah has had touch-some light, some
severe-of the malady, and not one of
them can give definite explanation of
the tortures of the disease. It has
spared no one-adults, children, little
mcu, ldTSc mcus UIdCA ASus WulCC uou,
colored men, business men, sporting
men, printers, editors. lawyers, every
one being subject to its fond embrace.
As for cure or preventive for the
little nuisance, we are not prepared to
say what is good or what is not good in
either case, but leave the matter to the
physicians, who, by the way, have been
reaping a rich harvest from the unlucky
victims of the disease. Some persons
have gone SO far as to say that the fever
is more violent on those who have de-
fed it before falling into its clutches;
but for this we cannot vOuch. We can
say, however, that any one. sooner or
later, who is among its victims, does not
wish second battle IN which to show
better fight. Probably for the above
treason more than anything else-tha
is, its severity on those who defy it
we do not wish to agitate Mr.. Fever, as
our ranks have already been visited by
the merciless monster, and to his ma
jesty. we say farewell. -Savannah
