DEAF AND DUMB.
what 1t Means to Re Cut on From Speech
and Nearing.

What ne Means 10 Re Cut OF From Speech
and Hearing.
To bo deaf is to be unable TO hear,
and to be dumb is TO be unable to talk.
Tho lack OF hearing is remedied by
teaching the child TO use his eyes and
understand either signs or the motions
OF the lips, and the lack of speech is
remediod 10y teaching the child to use
his vocal organs or his hands TO make
others understand, and, behold, the task
is accomplished, and he is ''just like
other folksW Not one thought is given
10 language, TO the wonderful medium
Of exchange by means Of which the busi-
ness Of life is carried on, that is sup
posed to come by nature, or instinct, or
miracle, but never by teaching.
A cultured lady, literary woman,
said to me once, after seeing some deaf
children and hearing them 60 through
certain vocal exercises which included
every elementary sound in the English
language: "Now, if these children can
make all these sounds correctly, why
don't they go right on and talk? What
hinders themY' She was a bright wom-
an, and when very short explanation
had been given her the reason flashed
upon her, and she said: "Why, what
fool ami / scel They've got something
to say, and the mechanical ability to
say it, but no language TO say it in. "
And in that one sentence she expressed
the reason for being Of all the institu-
tions and schools for tho deaf in the
country.
mo language TO say it in, =" that ex
presses tho condition Of deaf child s
mind before be is taught very well, but
perhaps "and no language to think it
in" should be added. Let the reader
try for himself and see how much con-
secutive thought he can accomplish
without words and if with his mind
trained by years Of intelligent thinking
he can do little until the words come,
let him imagine, if he can, the state Of
a mind cut off frcm language. Mabel
e. Adams in Popular Science Monthly.

SLAUGHTER OF DEER.

Game Killed In Montana by Sportsmen
just For the Fun of the Thing.

camp and kill over 100 deer, which he
hung up. lie tried TO sell them where
they hung, but failed. He went east

There were deer oarcasses all about the

Il have seen many Indian hunts. one
Of which resulted in the death Of over
400 deer, but not ono Of the deer was
wasted. The Indians hunt and then eat
the meat before they hunt again. They
kill to eat, but the whites kill for fun.
