Z. G. Jefferson, of Toronto, Canada,
thus writes to The Mail of that city:
The following case has come under my
notice: \ farmer married his cousin, and
both possessed all their faculties, and
they have nine children, of whom five
daughters We're born deaf mutes. Three
of these daughters married speaking and
hearing husbands. The first one has
three deaf mute children out of five. the
second one has two deaf mute children
out of three and the third has one deaf
mute child out of two. This proves that
Professor Bell, of Washington, United
States, has made a mistake by publish
ing largely that the intermarriages of
deaf mutes bring deaf mute race, when
the fact is that deaf mute children pro-
coed from married cousins possessing all
their faculties. In the Belleville deaf
mute school there are 24O pupils, and not
one of them has deaf mute parents.
There are many other similar cases in
England and the States"

Among the more recent improvements
in the manufacture of iron and steel, the
use of gaseous fuel stands conspicuous.
The idea OF first converting the fuel into
Il ccmbustible gas, and conveying this to
the point where heat was required and
there igniting it, is a very old one, and,
in one form or another, it has been en-
ployed for over thousand years, but it
is only within the present century that
the manifold advantages of gas as a
metallurgical fuel have become fully
recognized by the iron and steel workers
of the world. The early gas furnaces
used in Silesia, Sweden, and other Eu-
ropean countries were but enlarged

Americans WcIs { Learn Trades.

Sklllful stone ca,vers-not sculptors,
bit the men who actually cut the figures
and decorations on the sacades or interi-

often receive from four to six dollars a
day in New York and Boston. Modelers
for jewelers. and makers of designs for

III Boston and New York good stone
carvers receive higher pay than report
ers on newspapers, clerks in business
houses or male school teachers of the
lower grades.
But who are these skilled stone carvers
and wood carvers, makers of designs for
wall paper, modelers in clay. brass fin
lshers and so on? They are, with some
exceptions, Europeans. They havelearn-
ed how to do their work in other coun-
tries, and come here to exercise their
crafts.
Formerly these more artistic trades
could not be learned in the United
States. This is no longer the case. The
industries have been established in this
country to such an extent that nearly
all of them may be learned by The process
of apprenticeship and in the technical
schools scattered through the country

Improved Envelope Folding Machine

Improved Envelope Folding Machine.
4 new envelope folding machine pos
sesses several novel features, including
the use of boxed or inside cams, which
obviate the necessity for springs in pro-
ducing the different movements of the
mechanicism, and thus increase the
smoothness of working and durability of
the apparatus. By means of an ingenious
adjustable appliance, the envelopes have
any desired amount of bulk or roundness

operation makes the envelope more con-

currents of hot or cold air forced through
perforators in pipes cooled at the sides of
the wheel. The envelopes are afterward
dropped into race and gradually adj
vanced to table where an attendant is
waiting to band them. All the opera
