1t is not part of her life's duties to make
herself pleasing to men, and they must
take her as they fod her. Where the
true woman cOntrives a beauty and Gre
ates a grace out of her very misfortune,
the androqynous holds to the doctrine
of spades, and the value Of the unvar-
nished truth; where the one gives ii it,
tie thought to the most becoming colour
Of her ribbon or the best Arrangement of
her ~draperies, the other pushes The tan
gIed locks off her face anyhow, and
makes herself an amorphous bundle OF
brown and lemon colour. Her sole wish
IS to get the bad time over. How it
would be best got over does not trouble
her, and to b~eautify the inherently un-
lovely is beyond her skill TO compass.
Hence her hours of sickness 90 bv in
anxious idle fretting; while the true wo-
man finds graceful work to do that emil
veus their monotOny, and in the cootinu-
ancc OF her home duties loses the CALLING
sense of loss from which the other suf-
ters.

nurse Men make good nurses enough
out in the bush, where nothing better
can be had and a Californian "plrdncr"
is tender enough in his u@ncoutIl way to
his mate stricken down with fever in the
shanty, when he comes in at meal times
and administers quinine and brick tea
with horny hands begrimed with mud.
But this is not nursing ia the w0man's
sense. To be sure, the strength ofmen
makes them often Of value about an in
valid. They can lift aud carry as wo-
men cannot, and the want of a few $
sleep does not m IKE them hySterinaI.
Still they are no where, aS nurses, com.
pared with women;a and the best Of them
are not up to the thoughtful cares and
pleasant attentions which, as medical
men know, are half the battle in recov-
cry. And this is work which suits wo-
men. 1t appeals to their love of. power
and tenderness combined, and gratifrs
the maternal instinct of protection and
self-Sacrifice, while it pleasantly rever-
ses the usual order of things, and gives
Samson, bIind and bound, into their
hands. The bread-winning wife knows
nothing of all this. To her, sickness in
her household would be only a degree
less destructive than her own disable
ment, if she were called on 10 nurse.
She would not be able to leave her pills
or pachments for such u~nremnnerative
employment as soothing her children's
feverish hours or helping her husband
over his. She would calculate, natu-
rally enough, the difference of cost be-
tween hired help and her own earnings;
and economy as we'll as inclination would
decide the question. But the poor fell
low, left all day long to the questionable
services of a hired nurse. or TO the clam.
