The sunset Reviyals.

The overwhelming congregation that
met the evangelist, Rev. j. c. White,
laSt'night was no less surprising than
gratifying. Many corners could not be
seated, and TOOK position at the windows
on the chilly outside. The minister
preached most able sermon from the
text, "How shall we escape if we neglect
so great salvation" and the large audi
ence received it with profound attention.
Many stood up for prayers, Eight ladies
received that ordinance Two more await
it. The results of the meetings have been
twenty known conversions, sixteen re-
ceived for baptism, and five by letter.
A peculiar but gratifying feature of the
evening was that when the evangelist de-
clared the meetings suspended for the
present but said he would remain in the
city for few days, if any body would
take care of him, voices all over the house
cried out come stay with mel" The
parting hand accompanied the song, God
be with us till we meet again" The
reverend gentleman will remain in the
city till Monday and at the pastors Solic-
itatiOn, will preach twice on next Sunday.

Ia It Their Modesty?

In the lobby of the Morton q group
OF gentlemen were converslng the other
evening, when the name OF gentle
man, vino is a travelling salesman for
the Chase Brothers Piano company, was
mentioned. This led to . discussion of
the merits OF the instrument, when q
local business man said:
1.-The Chase piano Is one OF the best
instruments have ever heard or seen,
but should think il would be diff
cult matter to sell them on the road as
they are a comparatively new instru-
ment."
"How long since they were first in
troduced to the public" questioned a
travelling man rather sharply.
"On'y six or seven years, i should
think"
There's where you are mistaken"
said the drummer. 1.-The Chase piano
has been on the market over thirty
years to my certain knowledge.
knew the company we'll when 1t was in
Richmond, Ind, where 1t and the
piano. made by it are much better
known that they are here. The peo-
pic of Grand Rapids do not seem TO be
aware that the Chase piano had an al
most national reputation before the
company ever came to Grand Rapids
at ALL"
We'll. am surprised, and guess q
great many others would be If they
knew this. | wonder why the Chase
don't let the public know that they are
an old established concern, although
suppose they would rather have their
pianos go on their merits. than on the
age OF the company and the past repu-
tatlon of the instrument"

IT NAkIS1HE DEAF HEAR
SUCCESS OF 4 NOVEL INSTRUMENT.
The Mysterious Restoration OF
Deafness by an Unseen Device.
Old Theories Successfully
Applied.

During the past four years there have
been many rumofs Of the restoration,
IA some mysterious way, of the hearing
OF those who were known 10 have been
deaf for many years. This had led 10
an inyestIe alton by those interested.
and II has neen found that this happy
change mas been made by the use of
simple, vet ingenious device. which was
invented by gentleman in Bridgeport,
Conn. named d. Ii. Wales. This de-
vice - tue same 10 the ears as are
glasses to the ewes, ana Is SIMPLY colt
rubber disc, arranged on u rubber
spring, and so shaped that when IN
serted in the ear il will focus the waves
or sound on the natural drum, thus in
creaslng the vibrations of the latter.
The possibilities of device OF this
nature have long been known, but the
many attempts to use this knowledge
have been such utter failures that il
was considered beyond our present
knowledge of the ear 10 make practi-
cal instrument of this kind. Conse-
quently when this device was frat in
vented. not much attention was given
the same, as it WAS thought 10 be
merely an old enemy in a new dress;
but gradually this slight prejudice was
dispelled, until, at the present time,
most physicians and aurists look kindly
upon the instrument, and seem pleased
at the success II Is meriting.
At recent interview, Mr.. Wales
made the remarkable statement that,
TO his knowledge, the device which he
calls Sound Disc, had never failed
where relief was afterward obtained by
any medical surgical or mechanical
means, excepting powerful ear trum-
pet, which he says Is more powerful
than ms device. II would seem to be
an ideal device Tor the deaf, as 1t IS
worn IN the ear, out of sight, for
months at n time, and. as far as We Can
learn, is pronounced safe and comfort.
able for the patient. Many times it
has proven itself to be an advancement
IN the science of acoustics by relieving
the most obstinate cases which had
defied medical treatment for years.
What may be the ultimate result OF
the use of this device--whether the re-
suits thus far obtained will warrant it's
use IN such a variety of cases that 1t
will stop the progress OF deafness IN
the future to such an extent that 1t will
avoid the use of ear trumpets, we can
not cay; but the desirabilty of device
of this nature, as regards It's safety, its
benefit. and general comfort TO the
user, none will fail to admit.
