BLEND PIANO TUNERS.
Plea to Women to Employ Them

all because OF what Lewis Buffet CARL. himself
blind man, had said about teaching the blind
trades and then making point Of employing
them after they had learned their trades.
Piano tuning is of the things blind man
do as we'll as a man with sight, said Mr..
CARL, only the public won't believe 1t. II every
one Of you who has piano would only think to
employ blind tuners! If these men cannot find
work at their trade. they are apt to get discour-
aged and take TO peddling and then lapse into
beggary. If you would only give the blind
trial, know you would be pleased with the
suit.
The condition OF blind girls and women is par
ticularly unfortunate. for they so and come
as freely as blind men. They do very nice fancy
and bead work If you would only employ them.

people are poor.

work OF the blind. where blind piano tuners chair
