 LOS ANGELES, March :. A very remarkable thing and q very wonder ful thing has occurred in the life of Miss Helen Keller, the girl who has been for so many years deaf, and blind. Miss Keller today surprised Ter friends and the entire medical fraternity of the world by the re- markable announcement that at an especial recita given for her by Mime. Saltman, the grand opera star. she had heard the words and music of the singer.
 The case of Miss Keller is one of the most remarkable in history. When little baby she was stricken deaf and blind after an illness and she was SD young at the time that she has no recollection whatever of hay ing ever heard q sound or of seeing any object
 For many years the little girl was under the care of specialists in the teaching of the blind and deaf and her remarkable ability to learn and the persistence with which she per sued her education attracted world

Of . notwithstanding order. properly
signed, sealed and delivered, the gov
ernor of the town of Kursk, In central
Russia, has made himself sufficiently
ridiculous to insist upon the solemn
deportation, under q stern escort of
armed soldiers, Of an innocent two
year-old baby boy! The child is the
son of a Jewish dentist, NJ Kohan.
The latter, with his wife, was ordered
to leave the town few days ago.
The couple complied with the order,
cut left their infant son with friends,
as he was in too delicate a state Of
health to travel during the cold
weather. Under the pretext that Jew
fish children must not live without
their parents outside certain pre-
scribed area, the jealous police an.
rested the baby and ordered the
friends Of M. Kohan to take immediate
steps to send the boy away. M.
Kohan's friends asked for a delay so
that they might communicate with
the parents, but the governor ordered
the baby to be sent away under an
armed escort comprised of soldiers
with fixed bayonets. This implies
travelling with criminals in rough
conveyances and sleeping in prisons
en- route until the infant reaches his
parents.

Numbering Houses.

The now almost universal custom Of
numbering private houses so that they
can be easily identified is only little
more than 400 years old. 1t was in the
year 1913 that this idea struck the
fancy Of a Partisan architect. but it
was not until nearly three centuries
later that the system became at all
general.
In Berlin an eccentric method of
numbering the houses was first adopt
ed. They were numbered without any
reference whatever to the name Of the
street A tenants address would be
described merely as 1000 Berlin" In
st. Petersburg an excellent way Of dis
playing the numbers is employed-lit-
tie lanterns bear the numbers on the
glass, so that they can be seen after
dark. I'm the later Stuart times" says
Macaulay, 1.-The houses Of London were
not numbered, and there would, indeed.
have been little advantage in number
ing them. for of the coachmen, char
men, porters and errand boys Of the
city a very small proportion could
read. 1t was necessary to use marks
which the most ignorant could under
stand. The shops were, therefore. dis
tinguished by painted or sculptured
signs. which gave very gay and
grotesque aspect to the streets. New

Stories Old and New.

Some men are born story tellers.
some achieve the story telling faculty,
while others-who constitute the
great majority-can only sit in amaze
ment and listen to the man who can
glibly reel them off, one after another,
~ If they were all new, fresh and
original. You can recognize a good
story by the number of times you
meet it, for the good story is picked
up and repeated, interchanged, en-
larged, improvised and spread. until
1t is liable to reappear, as natural.
or in disguise, at the four corners
of the earth, and at widely separated
periods of time. That's what makes
the modern story teller such delight,
because until he finishes you cannot
know whether you are about to meet
an old friend or be initiated Into
novel mysteries. The redeeming fea-
ture of 1t is that every year another
crop of listeners grows to maturity for
whom the old ones are always new,
and who, in consequence, must be
the perpetual inspiration and the ltv-
ing encouragement to the story teller.

Elephants Hate Camels.

Elephants in Africa have the bitter
est enmity to camels. When the camel
scents the elephant it stops still, trem-
bles in all its limbs and utters an In
terrupted cry of terror and alright.
No persuasion, no blows, can induce 1t
to rise. 1t moves it's head backward
and forward, and its whole frame is
shaken with mortal anguish. The ele-
plant, on the contrary, as soon as he
perceives the camel elevates his trunk.
stamps with his feet, and, with his
trunk thrown backward, snorting with
a noise like the sound Of a trumpet, he
rushes toward the camel. which with
its neck outstretched and utterly de-
fenseless awaits with the most patient
resignation the approach Of its enemy.
The elephant, with its enormous, shape
less limbs. tramples on the unfortunate
animal in such a manner that in few
minutes it is scattered around in small
fragments.

Curious Gaelic Alphabet.

A very curious and distinguishing
characteristic of the Gaelic alphabet
is that nearly every letter thereof is
represented by tree. While the al
phabet Of ancient Gaelic comprised
but seventeen letters, that of modern
Gaelic has eighteen. But with the
new forms. as with the old, the letter
Is represented by a tree. The excep-
lions are "g." It" and "u," which
stand for ivy" "furze" and heather"
The alphabet now stands: Aim.
bette, coll, dur, eagh, fearn, gath,
huath, iogh. luis. NUN, NUN, DIV,
peith, ruis, suil. teine, ur. all of which
is equal to saying: Elm. birch. hazel.
oak, aspen, alder. ivy. whitethorn. yew.
rowan or quicken, vine, ash, spindle
tree. pine, elder. willow, furze, heath
In the old Gaelic alphabet the letter
''h" 0he huath or whitethorn) does not
exist The alphabet is called the beth
luis-nuin, because 3D." a." N" and not
"a" "b, &c" are the first three letters.

STILL USE HORSE AND WAGON
Transportation Methods Of Old Days
Yet Employed by Majority Of
Mankind.

The history Of highway transports
ton since the days of the Roman en-
pire exhibits few phases and great
turning points which have marked
new eras in progress, in efficiency, in
conveniences or economy. Historians
Of transportation tell US that mans
first land vehicle was boatlike struc-
ture without wheels. which was pulled
by sheer brute strength. first by man
and then by animals which he sub
jugated, the OK. horse and mule. The
next step in land transportation was
by means of crude rollers. which were
clipped underneath the vehicle very
much on the order Of the rollers which
we see in use in moving small build
ings short distances.
When the revolving wheel was ap-
piled to vehicles a great impetus was
given to highway transportation and
for 1000 years at least, until very re-
Gently. highway transportation saw
very little change or improvement,
says the Engineering Magazine.
II we carefully compare the methods
of highway transportation in the days
Of the Roman empire and the year
1912 we find that the greater percen-
tage Of the world is still using the
horse and wagon very much after the
fashion of the Romans; we see no
great evolution in highway transpor.

the highway, has reached mechanical
perfection in the span OF ten years;
however, so great slave to custom Is

Of the greatest civilizing agencies and
efficiency tools that so far has been
given the world
The development Of this efficiency

same time SO thoroughly that the

4 MISTAKEN IDEA

There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishmert in Scott S
Emulsion is eminent1y better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This is a mistaken idea, because Scott s
Emulsion first strengthens the bodybefore
making flesh. Its blood-forming proper
ties aid nature to throw off sickness by
building health from its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use.
Avoid alcoholic substitutes for SCOTS.
