a dog, that is worth printing. Mrs. Booth
had a little pet dog OF which she was very
fond and Mr. Booth was in the habit Of
holding this dog on his knee, and perhaps
during a conversation pinching his ear in
kind Of unconscious way. They went TO
Europe and left the dog at home. and, a.
they were away for some time. when they
returned the dog did not seem to remember
them much Mr. Booth, indeed. did not
seem to be recognized when he came back
ard fOi a week or SO the dog went about
In a purely perfunctory way One day he
had the dog on his knee, and in the old
unconscious way began pinching his ear
The dog looked up "a him moment, and
thCn jumped up and licked his hand, and
made every demonstration of delight lie
had not recognized Mr.. Booth until that
old habit disclosed their familiar relations

The Blind Love Games.

There are many games that the blind take
great pleasure in playing. One of these Is
checkers. Instead of fat men they use pegs,
the board being perforated with holes in the
corners of the squares, into which the pegs
are put. Dominoes is another favorite game
with the blind. The spots in the dominoes
are sunken 80 that the number is determined
instantly by the touch.
We do not encourage card playing, writes
q teacher of the blind, and suppose that 10
why most of the boys play so WE'LL
1t being understood that boy learns
most thoroughly what he is not wanted 10
learn. The cards are prepared by perforatlng
them with fine needle, the name OF the suit
being indicated by punctures in one corner
and the number In another. Our little girls
play with their dolls and take as much de-
light in dressing them as other little girls
could possibly do. One day last year we mad
q photographer take pictures in groups OF the
different classes and their teachers. When
we were ready to take the primary class there
was a general break for their dolls, and not
one of them would consent TO be taken until
she had her dollie properly posed In her
arms.
