The fire alarm was sounded and for a while the whole town was in the mid*t of great excitement. When the door was thrown open fire was seen burning rapidly from floor to ceiling in one end of the wood-working room. The fireman and a large number of citizens were quickly on hand and tlie fire was soon extinguished, The buggies and most of the stock and tools were hurriedly moved out to a safe distance. The origin of the fire is a mystery, Nv one had been in the shop during}. theday and there had beeu no fire in any of the stoves since the day before. There was some damage to the build. ing, and also to the stock, the latter be- ing from hurried moving and from wa— ter, all reaching probably $300. ‘Chere was insurance on tke building but none on the steck. The discovery of the fire in its early stages was fortunate, for had it made sufficient headway to get. beyond con— trol of the firemen there would have been a large and far reaching blaze. ‘Potash in Agriculture,” Is the title uf a pamphlet, published by the German Kali Works, No. 93 Nas- sau s.reet, New York, N.

THE NORTH CAROLINA PRESS, TAKE NOTICE. Orrice or THE Ex, Com. oF THE GREENSBORO INDUSTRIAL AND IM-— MIGRATION ASSOCIATION. Greensporo, N. C., Jan. 15, 1897. The idea which the Greensboro Industriel and Immigration asso- ciation has emphasized perhaps more than any other is that of home patronage. The association has always fostered as far as it was able every worthy home en terprise. The indiyidual mem- bers have made it a rule to buy at home. By precept. and exam- ple this principle has been drilled into our business community until it bas become the general rule of practice. We believe that nothing else has contributed so much to the comparative prosperity which the business interests of Greensboro have epjoyed during the last twe or three years of depression, and so marked have been the good effects here of this habit of home patronage, that we believe the adoption of the same plar else- where can be the means of im- measurable benefit to the State at large. Tothis end and in the interest of the general good of the Siate as a business communi- ty, we cordially invite all cham- bers of commerce and other bus- iness organizations in orth Carolina to unite with us during this year in popularizing this jdea, and see what will be the ef- fect of a general movement in this direction. As this is a matter of some pub- lic interest, the newspapers of the State are respectfully requested to copy. H. W. Coss, W. E. STONE, NEIL ELLINGTON, J- L. BROCKMANN, J. M. Henprix, J. F.

When you wishe! tho - /The Manner In Which She Was Taught to Speak and to Read Speech. Helen Keller is a household name She. is blind as well as deaf. That which shut her from the world have been broken down, that her soul has been set free and the seal of silence taken from her lips, seems miracu- lous to those who know not how it was done. The limits of this arti¢le will permit only the briefest out- line of her story. : Rendered both deaf and blind at 19 months by severe illness, she passed the first seven years of her life in silence, darkness and igno- rance, Who could have suspected the exquisite soul imprisoned in that mute and darkened body? A bright, patient, loving woman came, and the miracle began. is There was only one possible ave- nue of approdch to the beleaguered | soul. The sense of touch remained, | and to that the teacher, Miss Annie M. Sullivan, addressed her efforts. | Through finger spelling the child at: length obtained the idea of lan- guage, and with thiggrey other doors: could be unlocked. Having natural. ly a fine mind, she learned rapidly , when once started and developed a phenomenal memory. | While Helen received information | only through'spelling and in limited | amount, she never forgot. To tell her something was like writing' it. ‘ fact again months or even ye irs aft- | erward, you had only to ask for it. | But later,as she began to read })ooks, | to meet more people and tor sive, impressions through more ch nels, and in larger numbers, her mo:nory , ceased to be so absolutely relivl is. | Until she was 11 years of a3) hor, only means of communication was | by finger spelling. Then, at hor own urgent request, she was given les sons in speech by Miss Fuller, prin-| cipal of the Horace Mann school. | The rapidity with which she acquir- , ed the akility to sneak was uz rece the two years that she remained there she succeeded in acquiring the}: : power of understanding people when ; minute when in repose, and also 4 dented. *T™/scSTadancched Thger | - spelling asa means of expression | and has ever since used speech alone. But others still -had to communi- cate with her by their fingers. She then expressed a strong wish to learn to read the lips by touching them with her fingers.
