regarded as one of the best pos-
sible evidences of the success of the
experiment, for it showed beyond
any doubt that the girl heard cor-
rectly.
DEAF FROM HER BIRTH.
The next subject was a girl, deaf,
dumb, and blind from birth, named
f<atherine Pedersen. She, too„
heard for the first time in her life
and there was not the slightest
doubt that the experience brought
her the greatest joy she has ever
known. Two other girls and a boy
were the last subjects. The boy was
eo delighted with the music that
when the pianist played a two-step
he began to grin and then to dance
in time to it. In some ways this
was regarded as the best test of the
afternoon. The lad had, of course,
never heard music before, and when
he was asked why he made such a
demonstration over what he had
heard, he said, in the sign lan-
guage :
"1 just couldn't stand still. I
never heard anything like that noise
before. It was fine."
GIVEN GOLD MEDAL.
It was bearly 7 o'clock when all
the experiments were over. The
professor said before ho left the
laboratory that Mr. Hutchinson's
invention would reduce to a mini-
mum most of the dificulties that
have to be met in teaching a mute
to talk. With the "accousticon" the
mute cil'n hear himself or herself
talk, and thus hear what speech
sounds like. Thus, Prof. Van Tas-
sel said, the patient can help him-
self more than any ono can help
him., This. of course, applied to
mutes who have learned to talk a
little.
Mr. Hutchison has been at work
on his invention for several years.
Last year he wentto en 1 nd
and
'showed what his machine ne court d do
in Several of the institutions for
the deaf and dumb in London. Queen
Alexandra saw one of the tests, and

Every steamship that arrives in
Canada includes among its passen-
gers emigrants who have paid exor-
bitant and unnecessary agent's fees.
In many cases their contracts with
agents handicap them for years.
Fifty thousand Englishmen are re-
quired in Canada this year, and if
the present rate of emigration is
maintained the number will be
reached.

SPRING AILT'r NTS.
The Blood Needs Attention at this
Season—Purgatives Should Be
Avoided.
Spring is the season when your
system needs toning up. In the
spring you must have new blood,
just as the trees must have new
dap. With now blood you will feel
sprightly, happy and healthy. Many
people take purgatives in spring,
but this is a serious mistake, as
the tendency of all purgatives is to
further weaken the system. The
one and only sure way to get new
blood and new strength is to take
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They
actually make new, rich, red blood-
they are the greatest spring tonic
in the world. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills speedily banish all spring ail-
ments. Miss Belle Cohoon, White
hock Milts, N.S., says :—"I have
found Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a
splendid spring medicine. I was
very much run. down ; the least ex-
ertion exhausted me, and I had a
constant feeling of languor and
sluggishness. My appetite failed me
and my sleep at night was disturbed
and restless. After I began the use
of Dr, Williams' Pink Pills, thertt
was a speedy change for the better,
and after taking a few boxes, I felt
stronger than I had cine for years."

RICHES OF NATIONS.
England ailed. the ',rotted States are
credited with being the two richest
nations in the world, but what ex-
actly constitutes the real wealth of
a nation passes the understanding of
the average mortal, says -London
Tatler. A. nation's wealth consists
largely in its borrowing capacities,
and in this respect England stands
first, for beyond doubt our credit is
stronger than any other nation in
the world. A little over a year ago
the United States possessed a larg-
er amount of gold than that of any
other country. in August, 1901,
the United States Treasury had in
its strong box a sum of $504,854,-
295 in solid gold; but curiously en-
ough this fact alone would by no
means constitute the Anmerican re-
public the richest government in ex-
istence.

A MOTHER'S RESPONSIBILITY,
Every mothlr is responsible to
some extent for the health of her
little ones, and the prudent mother
will always keep at hand the means
for protecting the health of her
children. For this purpose there is
absolutely no medicine can compare
with Baby's Own 'tablets. These
Tablets speedily relieve and prompt-
ly cure all stomach and bowel trou-
bles, break up colds, check simple
fevers, prevent croup, and allay the
irritation accompanying the cutting
of teeth. They are good for children
of all ages from birth upwards, and
are sold under a guarantee to con-
tain no opiate or harmful drug, All
mothers who have used Baby's Own.
Tablets praise then and keep them
in the house. Dirs. John Weaver,
Biissfield, N.B., says : "I have a
family of six children and have used
Baby's Own Tablets and kuow that
they are the hest medicine I have
ever used for my little ones."

SOMETHING NIllW.
Probably the best invention in the
agricultural implement world for
1003 is the naw oiling device on. the
Massey -Harris Mower Pitman.
A roomy oil chamber is placed in
each end of the pitman, and the na-
tural action of the pitman throws
the oil up through the oil hole and
gives thorough and constant lubri-
cation. without waste:
The best feature of the device is
that the oil chambers are roomy and
one filling will last for many hours
of cutting.
We understand Massey -Harris Com-
pany are making a great hit with
this new feature, and that it is fil-
ling a long -felt want.
A great obstacle, to missionaries

that country having no less than

HAVE YOU CRIMINAL EYES?
A Russian savant lays claim to a
discovery for detecting criminals.
According to M. Karloff, you can
tell a criminal by the color of his
eyes, Murderers and thieves have
maroon or reddish brown eyes,
tramps light blue, and so\ forth, M.
Iiarloff has classified eyes into fa-
milies and has drawn up rules which
he declares to be infallible. Honest
folk have dark gray or blue eyes.
A PLAGUE OF SEALS.
The fisheries of Northern Norway
have come to a standstill, owing to
a tremendous influx of seals along

The large fishing population has
petitioned the Government for help

GIRLS OPPOSE WEDLOCK.
Organize to Resist Temptations to
Marry.
The unmarried -women of the an-
cient town of Guildford, the county
seat of Surrey, England, have leaped
into fame suddenly bj an action
which has caused London's laughter
to be echoed on the Paris boule-
vards. They have formed a "so-
ciety for promoting man indifference
among women," secured headquart-
ers whish they have named the
"Spinsters' Retreat," and have
pledged themselves to assist "young
women and those older in years to
withstand temptations to enter the
married state."
They scorn such a simple device to
attain their object as the making of
themselves unattractive in the eyes
of the male sex. They stipulate in
their first rule that all members
must have attained the age .of 17,
must wear long skirts, and' dress
their hair in a becoming manner.
They also say: "Members are in-
vited to render their appearance as
attractive as possible, but they
mist bo maidenly in their con-
duct."
The rules of the order compel the
members to have a wholesome con-
tempt - of love, to abhor marriage,
and to dihplay the society's badge
at least one day a week. Neverthe-
less, "members are not debarred
