The hostes' mouth dropped sympathetically

MGed lo that rwl-hmded rroaturo nnd tho
ttet k announced?" sho inquired again.
"Oh, no doubt of li," assured Mrs. Van
Knickerbocker, "Mrs. Hack Hay Is rather
n friend of tho girl, who told her nil about
It and alo showed her lots of the loveliest
trctitHcau thing. They havo been engaged,
you ire, at leaM a month, and In thruo weeks

"Mm Van Knickerbocker nlwaytf gets hero

Hay reproachfully, skirting many tables full;
of. bric-a-brac and nailing sutcosifuily j
through a maze of thln-lcggcd chairs to tho
bay window, where tea was spread. "Happily
I'vo arrived In tlmo to glvo you various tic- j

let mo itell you that tho gown sho showed

red-headed young friend carelessly desig

a Hhcath skirt of pastel whlto silk nnd If

Ono of tho most unique pupils of the deaf
and lumb Institution of Knox county, Iml.,
reports tho Indianapolis Sentinel, is Khola
Hewitt, a stout, sun-tanned girl of between
13 nnd 1C uummors. When sho was brought
to the school It was learned that sho had
lived a wild tort of life on nn out-of-tbe-Wjy
farm, spending much of her tlmo wnndorlng
around In tho woodB and Ilelds and often
slerplng a night under the hedgerow or In a
fenco cornor. Her mother died when tho
girl was very young and tho fnthor had not
tho tlmo nor perhaps tho ability to tell her,
nfter who lost her hearing at 3 years of use,
of tho world about her. She grew up ono of
naturo's own children.
Whon sho was brought to the bchool sho
was in groat terror. Sho hung her head and
throw har hands before her faco to hldo
from t.ho gaze of strangers. She had never
In her life, It was told, been to Monroj
City, tho nearest town to her home, and hud
nover seen many other human beings than
her father.
Tho strangers nt tho school wern at first
looked on as enemies. Sho would strike,
kick and blto when they approached. Thii
savagenesn of temper lasted about threo
weeks, when sbo began to appreciate that no
ono would do hor hurra, but that all wanted
to bo kind to ber.
nhoda wus put in Miss EllzAheth Ray's
clnfcA Kor threo weokp sho cried, hid her
face, and repelled nil ndvnnces with kicks
or fisticuffs or threats to use her teeth.
Hy degrees shu camo to learn that no harm
would bo done, nnd began to took up nnJ take
a human interest In thoto about hor.
Hor teacher und tht other pupils in tho
claiis showed nffectlon for her by stroking
her arm or bhouldcr, but It wus a lung time
before this mot with rcsponoa. Today sho
Is one of thu most nffectlonnte puplln in
Mls Hay's class, nud rarely passe her
teacher without touching her in nn nffec
tlonnto way characteristic of tho deaf, tfonie
times tho nffectlon In shown by ft rather too
sevens blow In tho back, and ono of the
tencher'o duties Is to make her understand
that groat phyalcal force is not ofacutlal
to r.fi'cctlon.
When Uhoda was in n pugnacious and In
contolnblo stnto'of mind many ways wiro
tiled to comfort her. Sho was r.hown a
picture book. This engaged her attention
a llttlo while. Sho recognized tho picture
of a row, and apparently thought of home,
ror sho began to cn-, nnd, pointing as If to
ward home, eald: "Papa, papa." This word
and "lmby" sho could speak when dio came
to school words she had learned to artlc
ulato heforo ho lost her hearing.
Sho has already learned :rcm tho other
children what It Is to lie. Tho children are
forbidden to say that nny one lies. Khoda
made n Hgn Indicating this tho other day, ,
' and wns punished by bolng put In n feat j

derstood tho purpcio of tho punishment,

bad used tho word lie, nnd had been made
to sit apart from the other children.
Her conception of a Creator Is difficult to
learn. Tho teacher takcB many occasions
to try to Impress upon her tome aotlua of
God. and Ithodn 1ms learned tn point upward
oh If to an unseen power, when sho Is asked
about tho Maker and Preserver of all.
Hor development had been so fiwt flnco
sho camo to tho school that It la dimcult to
cnrn' j.ow fast It has guio. Sho seems to
understand many things that she has no
way to express.
The nn)l wor,i ,,10 nssoclatcd with an ob-
Ject was "shoo." She can say shoo In a

My wife hi hsd two mlcarrlai?ts In the last three years and hit been In very bad health. About a year atto she
commenced to uit Wine of Cardui and Hlack-Uraught and thtv brought her flood health and on the 15th of thii month
she gave birth to as nice a pair of twlni ai ever wai born. She was not more than a half hour In labor and had a very
easy time. I sent for Dr. Koenl. but he got there too late. She wanted to get up the third day, but I thought It would
not do, but to.day she is going io get up. A, J. IIACKWOItTII.
I hereby certify to the above.
