NEW YORK’S “TRADE” SCHOOL.
Til irough Instruction in Theory and Prac
tice—Requirements and Results.
[Chicago News.]
The trade school in New York is the
most successful one in the country.
The nation of trade unions in limiting
the number of apprentices has made
it difficult in some of the skilled em
ployments to find artisans qualified for
their work, and the demand is so great
and the number of those wishing to
learn the various trades so numerous
that the New' York school became a
necessity alike to employer and to
young men willing to learn some use
ful manual employment. The school
was established to take the place of the
old apprenticeship system, in which in
struction, the use of tools, and practice
should be combined.
The’ School was opened in 1881 with
thirty three students in plumbing and
fresco-painting. The next season brick
laying and pattern-making was added
and the number of students was in
creased to eighty-eight. In 1883-4
wood-carving, stone-cutting and plas
tering were added and the attendance
was 200. The present season carpen
tering is included, with still largely in
creased classes. The instruction is’con
fined to a course of three evenings a
week for the five months between
October and April. The school is
neither a money-making no; a charita
ble institution, the stud nits being
charged tuition enough to just cover the
expehse—the charges for instruction
being; For brick-laying, sl7; plaster
ing, sls; plumbing, sl2, and all other
branches $lO each, with use of tools
and materials. The instruction is very
thorough, both in theory' and practice;
and, while it may not in the latter equal
a three OK six years’ apprenticeship, it
far exceeds it in the former, fitting the
pupil with a little experience at his
trade to become a comparatively skilled
laborer in any one of them.
Ineauh class subjects are given for
disdtissron ■ as, for instance, the class
in pliimb'ing discuss “Soil Pipes,”
Trapping and Ventilation of Soil
Pipes,” “Cold Water Supply
Pipes,” “Boilers,” “Tanks,” and
other kindred subjects bearing
upon the occupation of a plumber. The
students must be between the ages of
16 and 25, and each class is under sev
eral expert and educated men, who
practically understand every detail of
their department.
In cities there are greater difficulties
in the way of a boy learning a trade
than in the country, but these schools
open a wide field for usefulness, and the
eagerness with which this one has been
sought by boys in New York, and the
possibilities before it, ought to lead to
the establishment of ,-imilar institutions
in every large city in the union.
Roulette in Filth Avenue.
[New York Letter. 1
The new folly for the Fifth avenue
parlor is French rather than English,
for it consists of a roulette table, a re
duced copy of the kind used in gambling
hells. We read of Parisian salons where
games of chance are politely played for
money, and by people not lost to a deli
cate sense of propriety. Exactly the
same thing can not be said of the inno
vation here, and I hardly expect that
the roll of the roulette marble will be
come a usual noise in fashionable gath
erings.
Nevertheless there are two of these
wheels of misfortune revolving nearly
every evening in two of the otherwise
respectable and very costly boarding
houses in Fifth avenue, and others are
heard of. The game is played precisely
as in professional hands, except that a
banker is chos n for each occasion, and
there is presumed to be a freedom from
cheating on his part, but it is called
“revolution," which word may be taken
as descriptive of the numbered wheel em
ployed in it, and not as indicative of
any revolutionary change in our
women's sentiment about gambling.
Poker and “progressive" euchre have
accustomed them to a stake in card
playing, but when it comes to introduc
ing the apparatus of roulette, with its
placing of chips on a lay-out, the diver
sion is a little too gross for most of them
to stand.

A WEALTHY FARMER’S
RELIABLE TESTIMONY.
Take Special Note of the Following History of
a Inteeesting Case.
Near the thriving village of Dundee, a few
miles west of that queen of the lakes of cen
tral New York, Seneca, lives Mr. Daniel Sup
plee, a gentleman of about 70 years. Mr. Sup
plee owns a very large and highly cultivated
farm, which has lor many years had the en
viable reputation of being the best farm in
all t hat section. Every crop he plants seems
to thrive, and his advice is much sought by
youngerand less experienced farmers. ’About
two years ago," MrSupplee writes, Isuftered
from a very severe attack oi diabetes. It re
duced me in flesh so that I was only skin and
boms, and my skin was shriveled and wrin
kled badly, my urine contained such a large
percentage of sugar that when it was spilled
the sugar would cryetalize so as to make a
coating plainly visible. My life was despaired
of by my family and physicians. Commenced
using Hunt's [ Kidney and Liver] REMEDY at
this stage ofmy sickness: I improved steadily
and was cured, and am now able to again per
sonally superintend the management of my
extensive farming operations. Hi nt s Jvld
ney and Liver] Remedy is a grand medicine
for Diabetes and all Kidney Troubles.”
A gentleman hearing of these lacs and
wishingto kow further of the matter lor him
self, wrote to Mr. C. P. McLean, a large dry
goods merchant and grocer, of Dundee, and
a man of great integrity and worth, asking
for Information in the matter. He received
the following reply:
Dundee, N. V.. Jan. 3, 1885.
Dear Sir: i Yours of 2d hist, at hand this
morning I would say that I think the use of
HUNT’S [Kidney and Liver] Remedy In Mr.
Daniel Supplees case certainly sated his life.
He was going down very fast previous to its
use and began to show an improvement soon
after he began to take the Remedy. Mr. W.
B. Wightman, Wholesale Grocer, Providence,
R 1., is also knowing to wll facts iu Mr. Sup
plee’s ease. yoUrß ‘ McLEAN.

HUNT'S REMEDY CO.: 4
Gentlemen— Having been afflicted will a
severe attack of Kidney trouble, which disa
bled me from my business. I was persuaded
by a friend on the train to try Hunt s [Kid
neyand Liver] Remedy, as he recommended
it in the highest possible terms as a sure cure
for Kidney Disease and all troubles of the
Urinary Organs. I began to improve rapidly
soon after I commenced taking the Remedy,
and It has cured me, besides, as I believe,
saving me from a long sickness. I have fre
quently recommended Hunt’s [Kidney and
Liver] Remedy to my afflicted friends, and its
use has always resulted In restoring them
rapidly to health, I deem It a duty as well as
a privilege to recommend so good and relia
ble a medicine as I have proved Hunt's ]Kid
ney and liver] Remedy to be. r

DEAF AND BLIND.
How an Atlanta Woman was
Blade to See and Hear.
AN INTERESTING STORY.
Miss Minnie Wallare resides with Mrs.
George Flckland, 41 McAfee street, Atlanta,
Ga , and from her own lips a Constitution re
porter learned the following story:
Several months ago she became almost to
tally blind and deaf, and could not tas'e any
thing except silt. Her bones became the seat
of intense pain, her joints were swollen and
painful, and eventually her whole body and
limbs became covered with splotches and
small sores. Her appetite failed, and she
gradually lost llesh andstrengib, and had but
little use of herself, as her limbs and muscle}
were paralyzed She, as well as her f riends
and those with whom she lived, despaired of
her recovey. Her sufferings, combined with
loss of hearing and taste, and blindness, were
truly heartrending.
All treatment front physicians and the use
of medicines seemed powerless. Her dis
ease was blood poison and rheumatism.
As she now seemed well and hearty the re
porter asked what wrought such a wonderful
change. , . ,
“I used a medicine recommended by a
friend,” she replied, “and before one bottle
had been taken I began to see and hear. The
second bottle relieved all rheumatic pains
and improved my appetite. When I had com
pleted the use of six bottles my eyesight and
hearing were fully restored, sense of taste re
lurned.and splotches disappeared, sores all
healed, and my strength and flesh restored.
I now feel as well as I ever did, and my
friends, as -well as mystlf. are astonished.
“What was the Medicine?” asked the re
porter.
“Botanic Blood Balm —B. B, B. was the
great remedy that a-ted so powerfully on my
disease and cured me. I never experienced
any unpleasant symptoms from its use. and
its action is so quick that it surprises all.’’
The reporter then sought a physician who
knew the case, whereupon he handed us the
following lines: , .
“1 examined the above case of blood poison
and rheumatism, before and after being
cured, and certify to the main facts above
stated, and must acknowledge that the B. B.
B. etlected a most wonderful cure in this
well-known case.
