DETECTS coLoRs BY TOUCH.
Blind Weaver Becomes Wage Garner
and Develops Another Sense.

Woxall, Pa.-Henry J. Smith, who
was blinded % years ago in a prema-
ture explosion in a large quarry, has
become an expert carpet weaver.
His annual average is nearly LOO
yards, and since he lost his eyes he
has woven $1,000 yards for neighbor-
ing farmers.
1t is a wonderful spectacle to see
him separate the different colors of
carpet chain. This he does with his
fingers, for he has the art of feeling
the colors. After he has them sep
arated they are put in different boxes,
and here he can instantly tell by the
size of the box without feeling so
deliberately what color he is dealing
with.
He is getting so accustomed to his
work that he is able to weave finer
articles, such as towels and table
cloths, and his ingenuity has been
shown in a beautiful specimen of
table cloth, which he wove from fax
spun by Worcester township woman.

PENSION TO POOR PARENTS.
Ohio Official Proposes New Method
of Preventing Child Labor.

Columbus, O.-State Shop Inspector
Morgan in his annual report submit
ted to the governor makes the novel
proposition that the state of Ohio set
aside fund to be devoted to paying
parents in poor circumstances who
are now compelled to let their young
children work in factories, to enable
them to take the children from the
factories and put them in school.
Gov. Harris is inclined to look on
the proposal with favor and may
recommend law to the legislature
covering the matter.
Mr. Morgan says that Ohio leads
all the states in child labor legisla-
ton, but he is openly opposed to CIV
ing employers discretion to employ
children where parents need their
wages. Instead he suggests a school
pension law by which the parents
may be paid an equivalent sum out of
the public treasury and the child sent
to school.
