In the course OF this work some remark,
able observations have been made of the
extraordinary keenness of touch among
blind people. One blind little girl can al.
most invariably recognize a person she
has met once before by the feeling of the
lines of his hand II, however, the person
has first washed his hands and softened
them with soap, she has difficulty in rec.
ognizing him.
Helen Keller, the famous deaf, dumb and
blind girl, can recognize a song by placing
her fingers on the lips OF the singer.
Strange to say, she exhibits great delight
at certain songs. THIS appears TO show
that the musical sensation ia something
drum, and that the vibrations felt by the
entire body must give pleasure. Miss
Keller can pick out the best tones of a
singer.
The blind man usually conceives OF the
different colors as sounds. Walter Holmes
says:
81 once asked my brother, blind from
infancy, to tell me his ideas Of color, for
he always asked the color of each new
article he saw He told me that he got
great satisfaction from knowing the color
of things, but found the realization of
each color came to him as a sound. He
said he knew that red was a dazzling
color, and that when one told him thing
was red II came to him as a shrill whistle;
he knew that the foliage was green, and a
restful color, and when told a thing was

have lost their eyesight acquire
powers in other directions which
compensate more or less for their afflic-
ton. They develop such amazing acuteness
Of touch, hearing, smell and the other
senses that they hardly show the loss of
the missing one
BY means of new discoveries and inven-
tions science has been educating blind
men to a point where they enjoy almost
the same ability and happiness as normal
persons, and, indeed in certain directions,
they are better equipped than those who
see.
: The blind man possesses different
mind from the normal man, and it is by
studying this peculiar mind that science
aims to give the afflicted man the same
practical ability as the seeing man.
Professor C. F. Fraser, LID, distin-
guished medical scientist, of Nova Scotia.
who is blind himself, has just published
some highly interesting observations on
the state of mind of the blind and their
powers..
Particularly interesting is Professor
Fraser's explanation that blind persons
avoid contact with trees and posts on the
sidewalks and with other objects in their
homes, through being made aware of such
obstacles by the impression made upon
their faces from the sudden condensation
of the air.
In walking we drive before us d slight
wave of air. This is pushed on until it
strikes a solid body, then the wave of air
is thrown back upon the face and produces
a slight sensation, which is at once taken
as warning by the blind pedestrian. This
facial sensation, Professor Fraser adds, is
not necessarily confined to persons who
are blind but is occasionally experienced
In the dark by persons with sight.
Most persons doubtless have heard the
statement that blind persons can perceive
the nearness of objects, and many regard
the statement as popular error. 1t Is,
therefore, very interesting to have the as
,urance of a blind scientist that the state
ment Is really true and the explanation
why it happens.
Another scientist suggests that kind Of
echo may also assist blind persons in de.
tecting the nearness of Obstacles. They
become extremely sharp Of hearing and
any sound made by them would produce
an echo from a solid obstacle near to them
and by this they may learn to measure its
distance.
How wonderfully the remaining senses
can be developed when sight is lost is
explained in a recent article by Walter G.
Holmes, manager Of the Matilda Ziegler
Magazine for the Blind. He describes a
girl who is both blind and deaf, and then
says:
This girl has the sense OF touch de-
veloped to an unusually high degree.

depend on sound and he has cultivated this
sense
Il know blind lady whose sense of
denomination of paper money. She really
feels the ink in which the numbers on the
bills are printed"
Trained blind persons are much better
able to gauge the quality Of silks and
wools than seeing persons, because they
rely entirely on touch and are not misled
by sight.
Many blind persons have developed the
sense of smell to an acuteness that enables
them to recognize odors that are abso.
lutely unnoticed by ordinary persons. This
power is particularly developed in the deaf
and blind. Laura Bridgman, the famous
deaf-mute blind girl, could always recog-
nize anybody she had met before by the
stranger she invariably smelt his hand,
and could invariably recognize him there.
after by the same means
Blind persons who have once been able
~ oCo III bhcil VI Cdiuos
They may be entirely blind and have been
blind for many years, but in dreams they
have perfect sight
In many cases the blind man sees
more than one with good eyesight The
seeing man naturally sees only that side
which is turned toward him. The blind
man sees six sides Of box at once, II
he can hold It in his hand. If it is larger
he may see two or three sides at once.
In any case the inspection of an intelligent
blind man is more thorough than that Of
a seeing man who judges by appearance.
Strange to say, blindness is much more
common among men than among women
in all countries However slight defects
of vision are more common in women
than in men.
DR.. West examined the sight of 793
boys and 602 girls in the psblic schools OF
Worcester, Mass. In all nine grades it
was found that the percentage Of defective
eyes was distinctly greater among the
girls than the boys, the difference being
usually over ten per cent. But among
the boys serious defects threatening pos
s1Die blindness occurred more often
among the boys than the girls. Similar
conditions were found by DR.. F. Warner
after examining over 10000 school
children. These conditions partly explain
why blindness is more frequent among
men than women.
Psychologists believe that by educating
the blind they can find out how the mind
ran be developed without the same de-
pendence on the ordinary senses as in the
past. Our mental development is greatly
hindered by our conventional dependence
on the senses-especially the senses Of
sight and hearing.
II knowledge can be conveyed directly
to the brain by vibrations, as DR.. Alex.
ander Graham Bell has asserted, II will
most probably be done first with a blind
person and not with one who has grown
up in complete dependence on all the
senses.
