\ Tale at Trtplets and n Goat.

From the pittsburg Bulletin.
A tale of triplcts and u goat comes from
the East End. Three children with but u
single thought and that was to deodorize
the goat. Usually triplets, per So, do not
survive the ills that flesh is heir to. One
or two are certain to pass away. But in
this case the trio with one birthday lived
and grew and become strong and hearty.
They own-or did own-a goat, and. a.
their scnsibilities developed. they realized
that the animal, by some wise provision
of nature, had been endowed with a disa-
grceable odor. To remove this stigma
from their pet became the cherished AM
bition of the three.
To accomplish the disinfectinG process
the garden hose was brought into requisi-
ton. That goat was played uyon is IL IL
were u burning building, reducing the un-
fortunate animal tn n con-
ditiou. 1t was then carefully inspected,
usually by n committee of the whole, and
was found that the goat still smellcd very
goatey. The children then assumed that
the trouble lay deeper than it's hide and
hair, and that an Internal application of
water would be necessary. SO the unfor-
tunatc animals mouth was opened. the
hose inserted and the water turned on. A
little of that sort of thing goes n long way.
even with IA goat. and the trio soon had IA
lifcless pet on their hands. Ii died "a
martyr tn three children's conception OF
IN was due. from "a goat. to The sense
of smell.

. Dummy. Seal HING.

FROM Tile boStOn courier.
A gentleman who has been n professor
i'm u western college which devotes it's cn-
ergics la the education of that unfortunate
class who can neither speak nor hear. has
many amusing things tn tell of the ''dum-
mics" AS they are popularity called. In
this establishment, AZ very likely i'm many
others where deaf mutes are trained, the
means of il II genuine
sign language, and not the alphabetical
forms of some eastern institutions. Each
word has IA definite sign. and, while the
students are able tO use the alphabet for
new words. they do not resort To il ON
ordinary occasions.
Among the students i'm one of the classes
was u fellow h was extremely vain of
al enormous seal ring which he wore
upon the little finger of his right hand. In
talking his chief object always seemed to
he to display this ring. In all the gestures
of the language which required the little
any way out of sight he yet contrivcd To
bring II into prominence, sweeping the
seal ring into sight with ingenious curves
and waves of the hand.
One day in AN ~ntermission the pro-
fcssor Glanced to go into "a class room,
and there he found IL score of students
perfectly convulscd with laughter, and
the cause of their mcrrinIcnt was simply
one of their number who had mounted
the desk and was giving IA clever imitu-
ton of tin. manner of talking, which was
characteristic of the wearcr of the seal
ring. He was, so to say. initiating the
broguc of the affected mute. Everybody
appreciated the joke quite as much las ii
il had been IL question of vocal language
| end of the merriment which the mimicry
excited. The idea OF deaf mutes thus
joking upon their i~nflrunitics has in IL
something at once very humorous and PA
regions of TESTING, which has thus far been
little explored.
