Philadelphia, April 9.?Deaf, dumt and blind until a short time ago, 11year-old Katherlne Mary Frick has left this city to pay an Easter visit to her parents in Harrlsburg, and to bring joy to their hearts by actually speaking to them in words she cannot hear, and telling them that her sight | Is so ituproved that she can now din. I tlngulah day from night. [ The atory of her release from the seemingly impenetrable walls of darkness and silence which her afflictions raised around her mind rivals that of Helen Kellar In Its wonder and exceeds It In rapidity. For two years the little girl has been a patient In the Pennsylvania Institute for the Deaf and Dumb. When she went there she was the most helpless of mortals. Healthy In body and with a mind that was strong, although absolutely undeveloped, she was barred from all communication with her fellows. Now all Is changed. Within these two years she has been taught to recognize her teachers and her friends by touch. She can read the raised printing of the blind, she can operate a typewriter, tell what a person is saying by placing her hands unon tho speaker's Hps and she can talk with distinctiveness and correctness, although she Is not able to hear even the sound of her own voice. An operation has partly lifted the veil from her eyes and enabled her to see the difference between light and darkness. Lockhart Junction News.
