/, NARROW Howell, totally blind,
a former Mexico boy, Is n OF
the best calendar statesmen in the
United States. Mr. Howell is a neph-
ew of Frank Pearl, Of this city, and
was in Mexico this week visiting
the merchants. MIR. Howell's father
was q travelling nan and resided here
a number of years ago.
Mr.. Howell shows his stock with
the ease and description OF one who

labeled with an embossed card, used
by the blind to read by, and his fin
gers are so sensitive to the touch
Of these raised letters that in almost
a seconds time he can pick any cal
endar from his large stock.
Each calendar is described to him
once at the factory and he always re
tains the description perfectly, being
able to tell you about 1t in detail ey-
er afterward. After being led over
the business section Of any town he
can find his way about alone as well
as one who is not blind. He has a
