fellow clerks on Kilby street. John went

"A wv oni erflaI Invention.

The dcafcan hear by means of their
teeth. The a,,diphone, an inst rument in
vented by q Western Yankee for alleyiat-
the misery of deafness, is simply sheet
of Vuleanized rubber, about l.22 of. an inch
III thickness, set firmly in handle of the
same material. n the upper rim Of this
sheet are pierced some hotes through
which passes a sillen cord. This goes
down on the inner side Of the sheet, to the
handle, through slot in which it
passed.
By pulling the cord the sheet is bent over
any angle which the usermay desire. Each
person has to ascertain for himself what
kind of a curve of the rubber sheet will en-
able him to hear. best. Generally it is very
slight, only about ten or twelve degrees,
though apparently the deafer the person
the greater the curve must be. When used,
the person holding it simply tuttches the
upper end Of the fan, or audiphone against
the teeth of the upper jaw. The voice of
the speaker strikes upon this tense sheet Of
rubber, and communicates to its vibrations
which in turn are impaired to the teeth,
and then pass to the auditory nerve.
With this operation the outer ear has
nothing whatever to do; the delicate ma
chinery through which sound passes with
out making an impression upon the audi
tory nerve is not used at all. The outer
ear may be stopped up entirely, so far as
it is possible to do it, and yet one hears dis
tinctly the moment the andiphohe is ap=
piled to the teeth. 1t is necessary to use
the teeth of the upper jaW, for the reason
that they are more nearly in contact with
the auditory nerve nor does it make much
difference whether the teeth be ones own
or artificial, SO long the artificial be tightly
fitted; for when such is the case the vibra-
ton is impaired about as well as when
they are natural teeth. The inventor is
deaf himself. He happened one day to
hold'a watch between his teeth, and no.
ticed that he could distinctly hear its beat
ING, though when held to his ear no sound
was audible. This set him to thinking
hat possibly he might be able to invent
;ome device by which the sounds of human
7oice could be transmitted to the auditory
lerYe through the medium Of tube.-N.

George D.. Prentice was perhaps, the
best known as 4 wit, puHster and political
writer but from his facile pen flows a1s,
the sentimental and the beautiful. The

"A bout two years ago took up my rssar
idence for q few weeks in a country village
in the Eastern part of New England. Sona
after my arrival became acquainted vFftfa
a young lady apparently about IL years Of
age She had lost the idol Of her hearts
purest love, and the shadows Of deep and
holy memories were resting like the wings
of death upon her. brow
s 81 first met her in the presence OF tfAs
mirthful. She was, indeed, creature e,
besadmired her brow was garlanded will,
the young years sweetest flowers, and her
sunny tresses were hanging beautiful and
low npon her bosom, and she novel
throngI the crowd with such foating4
unearthly grace that the bewildered gazer
looked almost to see her fade away into the
airlike the creation Off pleasant dream.
She smiled, but there was something its
her smile that told me its mournftil beauty
was but the reflection Of tear, but hssr
eyelids pressed heavily down as IL strrtg~
& Cling to repreas the tide Of agony that was
bursting from her hearts secret urn. She
looked as if she could have left the scene
of festiyity and gone out beneath the quiet
stars and laid her forehead down upon the
fresh, green earth, and poured out her
heart stricken soul, gushS after gush, till it
mingled with the eternal fountain of purity
and life.
81 have lately heard that the young lady
of whom have spoken is dead. The close
Of her life was calm az the falling Of d
quiet stream, gentle as the signing Of the
breeze that fingers for q time around bed
Of fWithered roses and then dies for very
sweetness. ~. Ssss
