An American Teacher Doen't Fancy
~. Old Spanish Custom.

Raymond Shidlera an Anthony boy,
now teaching school on the island of
Bohol, in the Philippine group, writes
interestingly of things in that country.
Here are some excerpts from his last
letter:
This has been very hard year in
Bohol Previous TO the beginning OF
the rainy season it had been dry for
six months That is a long time in
the Philippines, and as they are not
provident enough to lay up, their sup
ply Of rice ran out. Many families are
living on tree pith; they chop down
certain tree, split 1t, dig out the
pith and dry 1t, then pound 1t into a
powder, from which they make bread.
Il am continually amused at the
small amount of clothing necessary
to constitute a dress. 1t is said that
in the Philippines white handker-

ONE IN EVERY 1900 BLIND.
Curious Facts in the Inquiry Con.
ducted by the Census Office.

About one person in every 1900
was blind and one in every $50 per.
sons was deaf in the United States in
1900, according to a special census
report on the blind and deaf in the
United States, says the Philadelphia
Press.
The inquiry was conducted under
the direction of DR.. Alexander Graham
Bell, who determined the scope OF
the investigation and wrote the text
OF the report on the deaf.
The total number of blind in the
United States In 1900 was 64,763. Of
whom 35,645 were totally blind and
29,118 partially blind. These figures.
however, the report says, can be
only considered as the minimum, as
an unknown proportion of the blind
were not located by the enumerators
OF the total blind 37O54 we're males
and 277O0 females.
Blindness is chiefly a defect of adult
life, almost Go per cent of the blind
becoming so after twenty years of
age. About one-tenth of the total
number of blind were born so. The
number of blind per 1000 of popula-
tion was greater among the negroes
than among the whites, and greater
among the foreign born whites than
among the natives whites.
Deafness. on the whole, the report
says, Is more common in the north.
ern part of the United States than in
the southern, and there are more deaf
males than females. The total num-
ber of deaf i'm the United States is
given as S9,2S7, of whom 37,426 we're
totally deaf and 51.s61 partially deaf.
From the latter class, however, are
eliminated those merely hard Of
hearing" ....,....,
The census report OF 1900 gave the
number of persons as deaf as 121 ,17S,
and the opinion Is expressed that the
returns for 1890 are undoubtedly ex-
cessive. while those for 1900 are de.
ficient. OF the totally deaf 52.5 per
cent were males. .t .,uf
OF the totally deaf 81 per cent were
so from childhood (under twenty
years OF age) and &c per cent from
birth. or the S9,2S7 persons re.
turned as deaf, 55.50l were able to
speak well, 9,4l7 imperfectly, and the
remainder not at all.
