OBSERVATIONS
(By .Iudsen Dean0

There is something uncanny in
the manner in which blind beggars
attract each others attention on a
crowded street. One would think
the clatter of thousands of feet
would drown the signals of their
tapping canes, yet they Invariably
succeed in meeting. Among the
blind and deaf there seems to exist
a "sixth sense partially compensat-
ing the afflicted. Some blind men
have become fine judges of dogs and
horses, relying upon the feel of the
animals fur and the rhythm of it's
pace On one occasion blind man
walked six miles through a heavy
snow storm directly to his home in
the country Another, fisherman,
would row out in the lake each
morning and row back to the exact
starting point on time in the even
ing. Still another says he can hear
a lamp post, tree or any station
ary object that might mean danger
to him. OF course these are excep-
tional cases, for the vast majority
of blind and deaf are not endowed
with such supersensitiveness.

Twain's Respect for Jews

Tn "My Father, Mark Twain" Clara
Clemens says: arguments as to the
virtues or non-virtures of the Jews
were often the topic of discussion in
our drawing room, and father always
grew eloquent in defense of Christ's
race. Indeed. so often were his re-
marks on this subject quoted that it
was rumored at one time father HIM
self was a Jew. About this time he
wrote his article Concerning the
Jews in which he states he consid-
ers them the most marvellous race
the world ever produced"
