Laura Brilgman's Occupations.

Many Indies learned the finger alpha
bet simply TO be able to talk with her,
and she wrote anu received many let
tiers. Her room had q window facing
south, and she often headed her letters
"Sunny Home" She took pleasure in
arranging her room and read great
deal. You know that quite number
Of books have been printed in raised
letters for the blind. Tho letters must
be large and are printed on ono side of
the page only. 1t takes sixteen large
volumes to print the Bible in this way.
Most blind persons cultivate one finger
for reading until it is very sensitive
and eau feel the letters very rapidly,
but, of course not so rapidly as we can
read with our eyes.
Miss Bridgman became quito an
author, too. Almost from the time
she learned to write she began TO keep
daily journals. Those she wrote dur
ing her first five years in Boston form
quite large pack, and are full Of
many interesting things. She recorded
all her little daily doings, and in
going through them from the earliest
to the latest entries you can see how
she gradually used more and mcle
words, and began to use capitals, and
wrote more clearly. She had also
written few poems. These have no
rhyme, of course, because that depends
on the sound. What she says in her
poems is in great part taken or initiated
from the Bible.
Her spare time was devoted to knit
ting, sewing, crocheting lace and mats,
and talking. l have a very pretty
crocheted mat which she made in one
evening.
Though her life was generally q
peaceful and happy one, it had also its
severe trials. Several of her teachers
TO whom she was much attached died !;
her closest tie with the world was al
ways her constant teacher and COM
panion, who wa, eyes, cars, and
tongue for her. Her teachers naturally
learned 10 sympathize with her condi-
ton more than others could, and the
loss of one of these dear friends was a
great afiiction. She even had to en-
dure the loss Of her benefactor, DR..
Howe. He had lived TO see her grow
up into what he had hoped she might
become when he took her from her
home in Hanover. His death occurred
In 1876, and affected Miss Bridgman so
seriously that she was very i'll and
weak for long time afterward.
So she lived her quiet life, so the
days grew into months, and the months
into years-and so, also, quietly and
peacefully she passed away on the gath
of May, 1889.
Laura Bridgnan's days Of darkness
are over. Many, many persons will
for long time 70 come think Of her,
and will often speak of the patience
she showed in her affection and the
earnestness with which she labored to
make the most Of her life.--St. Nicho'
