A Good Testimonial.

From Haverhill, N. H., Courier.
'I have had for twenty-seven years
past, badly diseased ankle bone. Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy and
his Salt Rheum Cream healed it when
all other medicines had failed, and
medical authority had said the limb
could never be well enough to use
again.
"A sore broke out on the ankle bone,
and for ten months the aged writer
suffered day and night beyond the pow
er of words to express. A friends ad-
vised me to try DR.. David Kennedys

helpful to me as Favorite Remedy. By

THE DREAM OF CHEMISTRY.
Hopes to Produce palatnblc Bcefstonks
Ont of tho Elements,

The electrician has one dream and
the social philosopher has another But
the chemist has also vision of the
alchemist of the dark ages. This is how
he would solve the problems of com
fort and happiness which have been
put to the human, race:
1.-THE chemist hopes for a synthetic
beefsteak, for chemical loaf, for a cup
of coffee made. like his soda water ex-
tracts, out OF inorganic matter. He
wants to see the day when a synthetic
climate shall develop the earth, when
the rainmaker shall be prophet. and
man shall hold the string to the unruly
bags of Aeolus.
"In that day the food and raiment of
mankind will be produced in the cru
clbles of the chemist. Once more ver-
dure will clothe the fields now defaced
by human toll, and the shaggy woods

will spring anew on the despoiled slopes
of the hills. There will be no tilling or
harvest. no slaughtering of tame beasts,
out of the original elements chemistry
will compound chops and outlets, knead
the dough and brew the ale. 81,
"The battle has already been partly
won in the case of medicines and drugs.
The wine at the table d'hote never saw
the vineyard. The prize fruit flowers of
the drug store are innocent of the
orchard and garden. Synthetic chemis-
try is yet young. 1t has made great
advances in the production Of glycerine
and sugar. It%has 1900 devotees in this
country who hope to make the dream
a reality"

men and leaders in their own expressive
 language. And 1t is worthy of re- mark, in balancing the advantages of the methods alluded to in this article, that very few of the orally taught deaf can follow, understandingly, the utter ances of an ordinary public speaker even though they sit very near him. The claim, often made, that many can do this is without foundation. Proof of this is afforded in the fact that the great majority of the graduates of the pure oral schools soon connect themselves with churches and classes where religious instruction is given in signs, speedily learning the language by assocation with those using it, if in deed they have not already acquired 1t surreptitiously as is very common in their own schools, from which it is SUD- posed to have been carefully excluded
 It has been shown that the so-called "new method" of teaching the deaf to speak is not new at all. If any mode of educating the deaf is to be regarded as new" it is the combined system, under which the schools of America have come to enjoy the deserved dis-- tinction of being regarded as the best in the world. And if the friends Of the deaf in the United States would do the greatest possible good to those in whom they take an interest, they will earnestly second the demand Of the educated deaf themselves, in this coun- try and in Europe, that the combined system shall be introduced into all schools for the deaf where it is not yet employed.

Slippery Ashes on the Walk. From tho Cincinnati TrihlInn l


 A gentleman living in the West End has been in the habit Of going to the lodge almost every night in the week. He manages to get home just sober enough to deny any insinuation of his wife that he is intoxicated.
 A few nights ago the cement walh which runs from his front door to the gate became very slippery. With won- derful forethought he sprinkled 1t with ashes He then informed his wife that it was necessary for him to attend an important meeting of the Masons and departed.
 His wife had noticed him sprlnkling ashes on the walk, and She smiled grim- ly as a bright idea suggested itself.
 Fifteen minutes after her dutiful lord had departed she sallied forth from the house, bundled up and armed with al broom and about fifty feet of hose. Sh61 carefully swept the ashes from the walk, and then, after attaching the hose to the hydrant. literally flooded the place. She retreated and left the rest to na- 'ture and her husband. Nature did herA part by turning the water into ice so smooth and slick that old Boreas him. self could not stand upon it. Early next morning the husband proceeded to do his part. He was in his usual con- sditicn, and there was but one thought that remained clear and distinct In his mind, and that was that he had placed ashes on the walk
 He opened the gate and confidently and briskly started for the door In al few moments his feet tried to exchange places with his head, he revolved seve- ral times in the air, and then returned very forcibly to the earth.
 When it came to astonishment and surprise, that man could have stood his ground against any one in the world.
 Again and again he essayed to wall1 but every effort was but a repetition o the first. Finally he gave it up and tried to think out a way to reach th{ door.
 After an hours thought he succeeded in devising a way to slowly but surely Set there. He played quadruped, and on hands and knees.
 When, he was within yard of the door it, was quietly opened and his wife appeared.
 Henry" she said, ''what on earth is the matter? It cannot be that you are drunk?"
 That was the straw that broke the camePs back, and the now humbled and penitent Henry replied: aYes'm. I'm drunk. But I'll be hanged if don't be- lieve the man who said ashes wasn't | slip'ry is liar.''

l
 Tn no country in the world is the
 general primary education of the deaf
 so fully provided for as in the United
 States. Every deaf child seeking an
 education can obtain it, even though
 he be penniless. And this primary ed
 ucation includes not only what is usual
 ly taught to normal children in the
 public schools, but, in most places, an
 industrial training which gives the re-
 clpient the means of earning a livli-
 hood on leaving school.
 Beyond this, to the deaf of the United | States, as to those of no other coun-
 try the doors of a college are open, in which those who have the ability to grasp 1t can pursue course of ad- vanced study which includes something of the classical languages, a fair intro- duction into French and German much of the natural, political, and intellec- tual sciences and mathematics, with history and literature according to the taste and industry of the student.
 1 This college is liberally sustained at Washington by the federal government, l and to students who are poor tuition and board without charge are afforded. I The graduates of the college have be- come teachers, clergymen, lawyers, bankers, practical chemists, astronorn- CTS librarians editors, and publishers; have been elected recorders of deeds, and have entered on many other em- ployments in which their college train ing has given them greater success than they could' have Attained without it. None has as yet been found in the halls of congress, but the writer has been assured their presence there would be welcome, provided they had not been taught to speak,!
 In the college at Washington there who cannot. All who desire 1t are giv- en instruction in speech anc lip-read- ing, and those who have acquired these valuable accomplishments before enter ing college are afforded all needful means of employing, preserving, and improving their speech. Manual meth ods are made use of in the college, but only where experience has proved them to be superior to oral methods in reaching the results the college is aiming to secure-namely, the highest possible intellectual and moral devel- opment of it's students.
 The college is equally open to orally taught and to manually taught deaf youth, and many of the former class have availed themselves, with marked success, of its advantages, with no de- triment to their powers of oral utter ance. It is true, however, that many graduates of pure oral schools have been deterred by their teachers from entering the college, and have been ad- 1 vised to enter high schools and colleges for normal youth, with the assurance | that they could secure in them a high | CT education of more value than was afforded in the college for the deaf at | Washington. Tn few cases, however, | have the results been fully satisfac- tory; in many instances they have 1 proved wholly disappointing, and in | some they have been deplorable.
 After leaving school and college, the | deaf of this country have, in common with those of other lands, the great comfort and blessing of religious ser- vices conducted by competent clergy
The daily morning journal and courier., 1895-04-29

tors to whom the education of these
 8,691 children is committed are agreed
 that no error could be greater than tC
 expect all deaf children to succeed in learningtto speak. The supporters ot
 pure orallsm, from the days of Hein-
 icke to the present time, have huSged
 this delusion to their hearts; and as a | consequence the education of hundreds
 and thousands of deaf children in Ger
 many, France. and Italy, who have
 been cruelty stretched on the prQcrus-
 tean bed of single method, has been more or less of a failure.
 The attitude taken within the last
 few years by educated deaf-mutes in this country, as well as in Germany,
 France, and Great Britain, in regard to the matter of methods is most signifi-
 cant In the summer of 1893, among
 the many important worlds congress- es held at Chicago, was one of educated deaf mutes from many countries. Many of the delegates had been educated in oral schools, others in manual schools, and still others in combined system schools. Towards the close of the con- gress a resolution was adopted enthu- siastically, and without a dissenting vote, declaring that "the combined sys- tenn, giving equal recognition 10 the manual and oral methods, is the only system of instruction that meets all conditions and purposes" and recom- mendlng it's adoption by all schools for the deaf where it is not yet in sse.
 An endorsement of the combined sys- laA ha. HAT 11 ion .f schools that follow but single meth cd, has come within the past year from another source. The school board of Portland, Me, under whose direction a considerable school for deaf children has been carried on for sixteen years, came to question the success of the oral method which had prevailed in the school since it's establishment, and committee, including the supertnten- dent of public schools, a prominent editor, and other men of high standing and intelligence, was appointed to visit the schools at Northampton, Mass, and Hartford, Conn.,, where the differ ent methods for educating the deaf might be observed under the most fav- Nrable conditions, the former bel ig one u t44S OlueSJ OIdl SSlpOlS III lilGi GOull- try, while the latter stands easily among the most successful of the com bined-system schools. After very care full examinations of these schools the committee made report, urging that broader and more flexible methods should be employed, and recommend ing the use of the combined system.
 The radical change which has since taken place in Portland schools sug- gests the very serious question whether the continuance of schools conducted on the purely oral method ought to be encouraged. It is not in this country alone that action looking in this di- rection has been taken In many of the cities and large towns of Germany associations of educated deaf mutes exist, whose object is to improve the condition of their class. All have been educated under the oral method, for no other is followed in Germany. With in the past five years the educated deaf in Germany, learning of the superior results attained for their class under the combined system in America have
