That the deaf can be made to hear was proved the other after- noon, when a number of physicians, he Duke of Newcastle, and several mtbct' persons gathered to witness a llemonstrution of the "aceousticon," :che invention of Miller Reese Hutchi- son, a young electrical engineer of New York. LIi 1 A T8LEPIIONE, The device is in throe pieces, U o carried in the pocket. which may Y One is the receiver, which is a tele- phone tvfouid be Balled the trans- mitter, and which is hooked on the lapel of a coat. Tho reverse face of the disk is hollowed and la the hul- low are certain gases, which are known only to the inventor. The other two pieces are the earpiece, like a telephone receiver, and a bat- tery. Small wires connect then. This was the instrument whloh carried to the ears of several of the inmates of the deaf mute institution the other afternoon the first sounds they had ever heard. The first sub- ject experimented on was a youth of 18. He was born deaf, dumb, and blind, Two years ago, when Mr. first ap- paratus, 1 - his s Flet ehison hadperfected1 t the 1• us hetried it on boy, 4 at C P east time for�s Lr,t t 1 learned tl and the ad e what the three words, "papa," "mamma," and "hello" sounded like. He did not hear the words again until the other day. and as soon as he hoard them he was able to repeat them—as well as a deaf mete can who has learned to arti,u- late at all—after Mr. Hutchison, The expression on the boy's face when he heard again was so pathet- ically joyous that many of the wo- men were affected to tears. H EARS AFTER FIFTEEN YEARS. The second subject to be experi- mented upon was Mary McGirr, 21 years old. It was much of an anni- versary day for her. On the day of the great blizzard, March 12, 1888, she had as good hearing, speech and understanding as any girl of her years in New York. On that day, returning from school, she caught cold, and the cold developed malad- ies which left her deaf, dumb and blind. She recovered her speech to a. certain extent after she was sent to the institution, but she had not been able to see in fifteen years and not at all in all that time had she. heard a sound. The ear piece was adjusted to her ear, and Mr. Hutchison took up a transmitter, which fitted over his nose as well as his mouth. in order that the subject might catch the nasal sounds as readily as the others. Then he instructed Prof, Van Tassel, who came down from. t ate institution with the young folks, to tell Mary, in the sign lan- guage to repeat the words she heard. Then Mr. Hutchison said to her the same words he had spoken to the previous subject. At the first word the girl looked startled. Then her face lighted up with a smile and she promptly repeated "papa."- So it was with the other words. CLAPS HER HANDS AT MUSIC. Then a pianist struck up a mama, the girl listened intently ter nearly live minutes. She seemed to be lost to everything but the sound of the anusic that flooded her ears. Then the pianist stopped playing and the girl laughed outright. Then she clapped her hands in sheer delight. "What's the matter ?" inquired Prof. Van Tassel. "The music 1 The music P" ex- claimed the girl. "It was li.eauti- ful. Can't I hear some more ?" There was too much pathos in the appeal for some of the women. They promptly hid their faces in their handkerchiefs and had a goad satis- fying ery. The pianist started again and Mary began to beat time with her fingers. The time beating was regarded as one of the nest pos- sible evidences of the success of the experiment, for it showed beyond any doubt that the girl heard cor- rectly. DEAF I'IlOM II]%It BIRTH. The next, subject was a girl, deaf, dumb, and blind from birth, named !,lathering Pedersen. She, too,. beard 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. `Cwo other girls and a boy were the last subjects, Tho boy was en 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 tmieic before, and when he 'was asked why he matte melt a demonstration over what ho had heard, he said, in the sign lan- guage : "I just couldn't stand still. I never heard anything like that noise before, It was fine," GIVEN GOLD MEDAL. It was boarly 7 o'clock when all the experiments were over.

Serious Charges Against Agents in England. There is something like a "boom" in Canada at present, and a number of more or less unscrupulous emi- gration mi- gr ti n agents in different parts of England are reaping a harvest therefrom, says the London Mail. The methods adopted by these revealed h sear were t e other da gentry Emigration bythe Commissioner of tux g for Canada. The agents advertise their willingness to secure positions for intending emigrants on farms. When an applicant for information appears at an agent's office he is interrogated as to his means, and the agent privately regulates his fee accordingly. The emigrant is promised a situation for sums vary- ing from £2 lOs to £5, or "a spe- cially good berth" on a bonus ar- rangement, which may mean the payment by the emigrant to the agent of from £25 to £15 annually, extended over several years. Another dodge is for the agent to promise the emigrant 'instruction in agriculture on ]tis arrival in Canada for a remuneration frequently amounting to £00. The Commissioner is anxious to make it known that emigrants need not go to any of this expense. The agent's aid is superfluous. Thou - sande of Englishmen able and will- ing to work are required on the farms in Canada. A letter of intro- duction which will be given to the emigrant at the Commissioner's of- fice, 17 Victoria street, S.W., will insure him a situation within 2,i hours after his arrival in Canada. IIIc need not have any knowledge of farm work. People who propose to settle in Canada are warned against the steamship and railway fares de- manded by certain emigration agents, The official steamship fare from Liverpool to Ihalifax, St. John (or Quebec is £5 10s. third class ; thence the railway fare to Winnipeg is £2 10s. Every steamship that arrives in Canada includes among its passen- gers emigrants who have paid exor- bitant and unnecessary agent's foes. In many cases their contracts with agents handicap them for years. I•'ifty thousand Englishmen are re- quired in Canada this year, and if the present rate of emigration is maintained the number will be reached. EXAMPLE TO I2ICPf UNCLES. Benjamin .W.

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 eap. With neve blood you will feel sprightly, happy aid 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 0111' 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 aro the greatest spring tonic in the world. Dr, Williams Pink Pills speedily banish all spring ail- ments.
