The Blind Miner.

About two weeks ago a man came TO
Warrior Station Ia mining region twen-
ty-one miles north of Birmingham, on
South and North Alabama Railroad)
seeking employment as a miner of coal,
When it was discovered that he was
blind he was laughed at, and it was
thought an impossibility for blind
man to dig coal. He persisted in his
efforts to secure a place, only asking
that fair test be given him. After
short time he was taken to the mine and
proved his efficiency as a miner. He
works without a lamp, as that would
be of no benefit to person deprived of
eyesight. The coal mined by this man
is said to be as clear of slate and dirt as
that of any one empl Dyed in the mines,
and the yield from his room as great as
that of other miners. His little son
leads him to the mines and into his
work room, leaving his father during
the day, who digs coal, separates it from
the dirt and other substances, keeps the
the roof of his room propped up, loads
the small cars and pushes them out to
the main track, as if he possessed the
eyeslght of two persons. AT night the
dutiful son returns to the mines, takes
his father by the hand and leads him
home. w. A. Graves is his name, and
he is native of Union County, Ga,
was Confederate soldier, and on April
g., 1864, at Appomattox Court House
had minnie ball pass through his tenn
Pile, causing the total loss of eyesight-

What People Say.

ONE of the perpetual stumbling blocks
" in the way of happiness is that re-
curing question, What will people
say?" We would wear our old clothes
and be comfortable, live on half our in
come and put half aside for time of
need, do without great many things
which are unnecessary but fashionable,
and choose for our acquaintances and
friends the people we like best, but
what will people say 7" as if people,
which does not mean the few for whom
we really care, but the great abstract
world, have any thing to do with it,
Do people pay our bills when we buy
what we do not want to please them p
Do they think any more of us when we
have climbed by infinite pains and in
convenience to their standard Much
more likely they see through our foolish
tissue of worldliness and toadying, and
despise us for the very effort we made
There is nothing so futile and fleeting as
popular favor. The people who from
sudden fancy or caprice, may take us up
today Will drop us tomorrow the
man or woman who lives with this
end in view will be disappointed and de-
serves to be, for working for popular
praise, or from a fear of what people
will say, can never be productive of
good. Shakespeare has said, I" Be thou
as pure as ice and chaste as snow, thou
shalt not escape calumny," and the Gen.
sure of the world-a light thing so it be
undeserved. There are sweet and gentle
natures which shrink from its adverse
criticism. They believe in people"
They think the world kind of alma
mater, instead of censorious judge, until
too late, they find that they have ex-
pended all their strength and courage
in trying to please-and failed, and they
never rally from the shock.

A Chapter on Pens.

DOUBTLESS the first instrument
- ever used by man for writing was
stick, with which marks were made on
the earth and next to that a stone for
making more durable marks upon hard
substances. But in the most ancient
periods of civilization we find illusions
to the stylus and the sheets of wax
The ancient Egyptians used particular
kind of reed for writing with ink
Along the shores of the Oriental sea this
reed is still found, and is still common
ly used as writing utensil. 1t is very
hard and about the size of goose quill.
Pens made of this reed were well
enough adapted to writing the Eastern
alphabets, which consist for the most
part of straight and thick strokes, with
aspringling of dots. But when the diff
fusion of the Latin language demanded
finer instruments, the feathers of the
large birds began to be used, such as the
swan, the ostrich, the turkey, the goose,
and the crow. OF all these, the goose
quill was found to be the best, and this
became throughout Christendom the
universal writing implement about the
year 800 A. d., and held its ground until
within the recollection of living men.
Indeed, there is still considerable num-
ber of persons who still prefer the goose
quill to any other implement.
Both the goose and man have been
great gamers by the introduction of
metallic pens. The consumption of
goose quills in forty years was enormous.
Great Britain imported in one year 10000,
600, from st. Petersburg alone, and in all
civilized countries the trade in the article
was very large. At the schools the mend
ing and making of pens was serious task
to the teacher, every boy being supplied
daily with from two to six pens, all of
which had to be mended after being
used. 1 can we'll remember when teach
ers were obliged to spend all the odd
moments of the day in mending pens ;
for this was one of the tasks which a
boy could not be trusted to attempt
He was extremely likely to waste q
| quill, and cut two or three fingers, as
the knife had to be extremely sharp.
The goose was also great sufferer.
1t was discovered that the quill feathers
could be taken every year from the liv.
bird, and so leave room for another cror

to grow. The operation was performed
by farmers wives, who first caught the
goose, and then thrust Its head into
stocking after which the uuills could
. be drawn without danger from an aveng-
ing bill
Millions of men and geese felt the in
convenience of the quill pen, which or
dlnarily had to be changed or mended
after twenty minutes of continuous use
The first attempt to substitute metallic
pens was made In England In 1904; but
the attempt was not very successful
The pens then were made In the barrel
form, similar to the quill pen In shape,
but thick and clumsy, being wholly
made by hand. They were kept in q
case of bone for carrying in the pocket,
and were used to some little extent by
commercial travellers. The great objec-
tion to them was that they. cost dollar
aud quarter each, and the point was
very soon corroded by the action of the
ink. They were not worth their cost
and soon fell into disuse.
The first American patent for metallic
pens bears date 1910, and was issued to
Peregrime Williamson, of Baltimore
This patent also seems to have borne no
fruit, and little was heard of steel pens
until aboGt the year 1899, when GER
tain Mr.. Perry produced an article that
really answered the purpose.

AT this moment / remembered my

The vision was verified. Now comes
the curious feature of the case. The

How then is the matter to be explained
Was it simply coincidence, or was
the circumstance to be properly classed
among those strange cases of 'second
sight" of which we read
can understand an ordinary dream,
for the visions which it brings to view
are almost invariably based upon some
incident of the past. The visions may
be grotesque or distorted, but yet, if we
search long and carefully enough, we
can reasonably account for them. AS
heat Will restore the date on coin other

frequently restore, through the agency
of dreams scenes and events long since
forgotten and gone from the recollection
during waking hours. But if the coin
never bore date then nothing exists to
be restored. Bnt if there be no foun-
dation in fact how can simple dream
bring to view scenes through which the
dreamer subsequently passes that are
verified in every important particular
by his actual experience
