In the Sick Room.

A want of sympathy on the part of o
nurse is like a perpetual cold bath to q
patient. This is not very common
blunder. But the opposite is so COM
mon, that it may sometimes become Q
question in the patients mind whether
he would not prefer absolute coldness.
To be continually lodging around the
bed, and pouncing upon every object
that is not at right angles, smoothing
out the sheet, and dabbing at the pill
lows, and saying dozen times an hour:
"How do you feel nowa" Don't you
want something to eat7" "Can do
anything for you2" "Let me bathe
your head l"-is enough to drive sick
man wild. He feels that he would like
to ask you to go away and hold your
tongue; but he knows thatall this fidget'
ing is prompted by affection, so ne
holds his tongue instead, and bears it
all with what measure of patience ma
ture has bestowed upon him. In point
of fact, the sick person is generally very
ready to tell his wants. His food and
drink and physic are the momentous
matters of the day to him, and will not
be forgotten. He is likely to tell you
when he feels better. He is suro to tell
You when he feels worss.
Worse than all these things is the
solemn face in sick room. 1t is hard
for troubled heart to put on cheerful
countenance, and it is no wonder that
nurses so often fail in this. But we
have known persons who thought that a
cheerful face and bright smile in a
sick room were indications of hard
heart.

An Earnest Model.

Some curious details are given in for
eign journals respecting famous model
who posed for the "Atalanta " OF Pra-
dier and the young girl in Gerome's
"Cock- Fight" now i'll the gallery OF
Luxembourg. When she first went to
Paris she was young and illiterate
peasant, but she managed to educate
herself. While posing for the "Ata-
lanta" she ceased one dayto come at the
accustomed hour, so Pradier went In
search of her, and found her, as he
thought, lying dead. An attack OF brain
fever had struck her down, and in few
days she died, to all appearance: But
this seeming death was only the rigidlty
of nm intense attack of catalepsy, and
she was really conscious of all that was
passing around her. Pradier concluded
he would take cast of the corpse. The
modelling of the feet and hands gave the
Door girl no uneasiness, but her terror
at the thought Of the suffocating weight
of the plaster on face and chest enabled
her to break the fetters of the lethargy.
To the amazement of the artist, the sup.
posed corpse bounded from the bed, and
seizine a mass of the half-iquid plaster,
she dashed it full in Pradier's face. The
violent exertion did her good, and she
was saved. But somehow she would
never forgive Pradier. She would moi
enter his studio, and he was forced to
get another model to complete hif

Four Innocent Men.

Four innocent men have just been
pardoned out of the Oregon State
prison after spending three years there
on life sentences. In 1872 stage was
stopped in lonely placeby four masked
men, who took from it gold dust worth
$4,000. The nearest house was the resi-
dence of the four men, who were after
ward wrongfully convicted. Footprints
were found leading from the place of
the robbery to that house, and it was
also ascertained that the men had been
out late on the night of the crime. There
was no other indication of their guilt
but the public sentiment was very
strong against robbers, and no more
convincing facts were demanded. A
mob visited the house, caught one OF
the men, and scared him with threats OF
hanging into saying that he and the
others were guilty. The false confession
would not have saved his life, but the ar
rival of an officer did, and then he de.
clared the untruthfulness of his state
mont. The four were tried and hurried.
ly convicted, and sentenced for life, al
though the driver of the stage swore to
an opinion that they were not the rob.
bers, for which testimony he narrowly
escaped being lynched as an accompice.

tected,

How a Cricket Saved q Ship.

In Southey's " History Of Brazil" he
tells how Cabeza deVaca was in great
ship going to South America with 4OO
men and thirty horses and after they
had crossed the equator, the commander
discovered there were only three casks
of water left. he gave orders to make
the nearest land, and for three days they
sailed for the coast. Apoor sick soldier
who had left Cadiz with them, brought
a grillo, or ground cricket, with him,
thinking it's cheerful voice would amuse
him on the long, dreary voyage. But
to his great disappointment, the little
insect was perfectly quiet the whole way:
The fourth morning after the ship had
changed her course, the cricket, which
knew what she was about, set up her
shrillest note. The soldier at once gave
warning to the oficers.n charge OF the
vessel, and they soon saw high, jagged
rocks Just ahead of them. The watch
had been careless, and the great ship in
q few moments would have been dashed
to pieces on the lodges, if this puny
creature had not scented the land, and
told them of their danger. Then they
cruised along for some days; and the
cricket sang for them every night, Just
as cheeriIy as if she bad been in far OH
Spain, till they got to their destined
port, the island of Catalina.
