binary Literary Task.
Not one person in ten thousand of
those who will read Helen Keller's
own story of her life, when it begins
in an early issue of The Ladies Home
Journal, will have the least concep-
ton of the amount of hard work re-
quired to write the story. First OF all
Miss Keller puts down her ideas Gin
Braille," as the blind express it; that
is to say, in tie system of points
raised on paper by means of a stylus
and slate devised to aid the blind;
these "points" being read afterward
by passing the sensitive fingers over
them. When all of this Braille work
has been completed Miss Keller goes
to her typewriter and uses these
notes as a guide to the rewriting of the
story,
AS soon as a page of matter is type
written it is, so to speak, lost to Miss
Keller, who has to depend upon her
faithful teacher, Miss Sullivan, to re-
peat it to her by spelling out each
sentance by means of the hands. 1t
is tedious task, especially as some
of the pages have to be read again and
again, with changes here and there
before Miss Keller is satisfied. Then,
when the proofs are sent to her, all
this slow process Of spelling word
after word has to be gone through
with once more, so that each word
that Helen Keller writes goes through
her fingers at least five times. It will
be satisfaction to everybody to know
that the publishers of The Journal
have recognized in a substantial
manner the extraordinary ability and
patience which Miss Keller has shown
in her work.

binary Literary Task.

DR.. Schulz, a German ply
stefan of considerable prom
inence, asserts that sleep after
meals decreases the activity
of the stomach and increases
the acidity of the contents,
and hence is not advisable.
The Medical Journal of
Philadelphia remarks:-"May
it not be that this cannot be
decided by rule, but depends
upon the individual peculiar
tiles or habits. Does it not
also possibly depend to d
large extent upon the kind of
food eaten? AS a rule cats
and dogs, flesh eaters, sleep
after meals, and acidity
would aid their digestion,
while ruminants and gramin
ivorous animals lie down but
keep awake. DR.. Schulz, it is
said, admits that the recum-
bent position without sleep
aids digesti on.
