To Al the Blind.

Following in the line Of experiments
conducted by a Russian scientist, Mr..
u. A. Reardon, superintendent OF the
printing Office OF the Perkins School
for the Blind In Boston. has devised an
apparatus by which he claims the blind
can actually see. This device acts on
principle of varying the strength Of an
electric current by means Of selenium
substitute for an eye. This element,
II Is well known, varies In electrical
resistance with the amount of light
falling upon It, and thus varies the cur.
REM in strength in any circuit OF which
1t forms a part. A little practice read
lily enables a blind person, II Is claimed,
to substitute the sense Of touch for
that of sight, and TO distinguish the
approach OF persons or large consp!c-
uous objects by its aid.
