If the teacher wishes to teach the
child to say a certain sound Or word
the child must place one hand on the
larynx or throat of the teacher and the
other hand on its own throat or larynx.
While in this position the instructor
says word and the child feels the
vibrations in the throat and then tries
to produce the same kind of vibrations
in its own throat or larynx. 1t thus
lengthens and shortens the vocal cords,
as violiDist shortens and lengthens
the strings of fiddle, to produce a
definite tone. The child thus speaks
with more certainty and convenience
in the first few years with its hand on
its throat in order to regulate and con-
troll its voice. The voice of a deaf
mute is always peculiar because of
inability to modulate his voice. In
the same sentence can be heard doleful
pathos and comic mirth, whispering
and screeching but perfectly inteligi-
BILE Deaf mutes cannot therefore learn
to sing and that is excluded from their
work. They are generally taught
until Is years old or in all 9 years and
at the end Of that time can converse
quickly and intelligently with any
speaking person without signs or pen
Gil. The classes are all divided into
10 scholars or less and are in q separ-
ate room. Deaf mutes are not capable
of such rapid and high culture as the
blind. Because the ear is the best
and most certain organ of early culture
and also knowledge gained through
the ear makes deeper impression on
consciousness than that coming through
the eye Impressions remain longer
when they come through the ear than
through the eye. Music stirs the
soul to its depths or quiets its agita-
tions while sights give the mind a
lighter impression and more quickly
pass away. The blind receives a fine
sense of ideas through the ear, as in
music, cries of pain, company and
business.
The uncultured deaf can only think
by intuition or by pictures. He can
not think abstractiy or in words and it
is doubtful whether person can learn
clear thinking without words Cor
ideas.
It should be remembered that few
persons are born deaf. probably orc in
1900. Deafness is caused by disease
mainly after birth. The principal
disease is called cerebre-spinal menin-
gifts inflammation of the coverings of
the cord and brain. } It is epidemic
and devastates whole districts in short
time. A person deaf from such a
disease often has staggering gait.
There are 4 men deaf to 8 women,
Generally deaf girls are much more
capable of culture than deaf boys.
All schools are approaching the Ger
man method of instruction i. c. the
system Of load talking. This is of
course the most practical because
when the scholar leaves the school he
must go among persons who do not
know Anger speech or sign language
and even who cannot write and there
fore his sign language is nc use to him
ia general society. The French school
is giving up it's sign Instruction an1l
loud speaking. The Ameri-
cans combine the two.

The project of converting the Academy
of Music into church on Sunday after
noon is sort of dramatic religion that may
probably be popular but is not likely to
produce any very benefcent results. Peo-
pie who want to go to church will find the
and they won't be enticed into church
going because the services are held in a
theatre. Probably some people may con-
slider this business sensational, but if SO it
is the only attraction the scheme offers. II
ministers want to popularize church going
and it is by no means popular now-they
must divest their churches of the exclusive
spirit that unfortunately dominates most
Of then. They must let it be understood
that pew-rent is not the sole end and aim
of existence, and they must make it
thoroughly understood that the man who
comes in a threadbare coat, the woman
wears calico gown, and the child attired
in tattered garments, is as welcome as
people in broadcloth and silk. Whatever
the church may have been in the days of
| the Saviour there is lack of humanity
about it to-day that makes poor people un-
derstand that they are not wanted-and
they stop away with persistence that may
be unpopular with ministers but is very
natural. The religion of to-day is mere
| skeleton. The ministers should read up
on the first four books of the New Testa-
ment and put little human nature into
the efigy.

The Way to Do it.

Scarcely week goes by when we are not
informed by some anxious reader Of the
SUNDAY TATTLEB that 81 went to half q
dozen stands last Sunday morning, and !
couldn't get copy of the TArrLER" The
reason is that the demand for the paper is
SO great that the newsmen are sold out at
nine o'clock each Sunday morning. As a
colored sister. who is great admirer of
the paper remarked to us the other day,
''Youse got to get up early in de mornin
to git dat paper?" She told the truth in
her homely way. Its the early worm that
catches the bird, and its the early pur-
chaser that catches the TATTLER. If you
don't want to get up early to get the paper,
you can always make sure of it by ordering
your newsdealer to leave it at your house
with the rest of your Sunday morning
newspapers. That's the only sure way
that we know of to get the TArTLER. 1t
costs only two cents at the stands, and it
doesn't cost any more to have it delivered
at your door.
