Suggestions For the Sick Room

In preparing meal for any one whose
appetite is delicate, it should be made to
look as tempting as possible. The tray
should be covered with the whitest nap
kin, and the silver. glass, and china
should shine with cleanliness. There
should not be too great a variety of
viands. and very small portion of each
one. Nothing more quickly disgusts a
feeble appetite than quantity Of food
presented at one time. The patient new
er should be consulted beforehand as to
what he will eat or what he will drink.
If he asks for anything, give it to him,
with the doctors permission; otherwise
prepare something he is known to like
and offer it without previous comment.
Ono of the chief Offices Of a good nurse is
to think for her patient His slightest
want should be anticipated and gratifed
before he has time to express it. Quick
observation will enable her to detect the
first symptom Of worry or excitement
and to remove the cause. An invalid
never should be leased with the exertion
OF making decision. Whether
whether chicken broth, or beef tea
or Cruel is best for his luncheon, and all
similar matters, are questions which
should be decided without appealing to
him. Household troubles should he
kept as far as possible from the sick-room

collar awry and his necktie securely
hnotted under his lett ear. He was in a

he did not seem to be drinking man,
the court officers inst1nctively put him
down as mortal for whom visions of
snakes and pink rabbits were specially
reserved. At last his Honor looked up
from the affidavit he was scanning and
saw him. Magisterial severity took
possession Of him at once, and he sternlv
demanded:
''What's all this about2 You're in a
nice state"
"My poor dear wife," the meek man
began; "she wouldn't harm fly -
But his Honor interrupted with, "No

too much of this getting drunk and saw
ing it was wite's fault
but my dear wife" the other persist
ed.

the court.
''But you don't understand. She's a

the top Of his voice:

"I'm him. That's me- murmured the
applicant: dissolving into meekness once

be informed, the ill-news should be brok-
en- as gently as possible, and every sooth-
ing device employed to help HIM bear
the shock. Above all, an invalid, or
even person apparently convalescent,
should be saved from his friends. One
garrulous acquaintance admitted for half
an hour will undo the good done by a
week of tender nursing. Whoever is the
responsible person in charge should know
how much her patient can bear, she
should keep careful watch on visitors
of whose discretion she is not certain,
and the moment she perceives it to be
necessary, politely but firmly dismiss
them. She must carry out implicitly the
doctors directions, particularly those of
medicine and diet. Strict obedience to
his orders a faithful, diligent, painstak-
ing following Of his instructions, will en-
sure the sufferer the best results from his
skill, and bring order, method and regu-
larity into domestic nursing.

AUTUMN WOODS.

The birch, most shy and lady-lii1e of trees,
Her poverty, as best she may, retricyes,
And hints at her foregone gentilities
With some sacred relics of her wealth Of
leaves
The swamp-oak, with his royal purple on,
Glares, red as blood, across the sinking sun
AS one who, prouder to Il fallen fortune
cleaves.
The red-oak, softer GRAINED, yields all fo1
lost,
And with his crumpled foliage stiff and dry
After the first betrayal OF the frost,
Rebutfs the kiss Of the relentng sky.
The chestnuts lavish of their long hidden
gold,
To the faint summer, besgared now and
old,
Pour back the sunshine boarded meath her
favoring eye.
The ash, her purple drops forgvingly
And sadly, breaking not the general hush.
The maple swamps glow like a sunset sea,
Each leaf ripple with its separate flush;
All round the woods edge creeps the skirtine
blaze
Or bushes low; as when, on cloudy days,
Ere the rain falls, the cautious farmer burns
his brush.

lSnnday World.l
AS Napoleon was about to cross the
Russian frontier he paused, literally faint
with hunger, at the little Polish village
of Skrawedze and made his way, accom-
panied by his staff, to the priests house to
know if he had anything eatable.
The priest understood no French and
could speak nothing but Polish, and Ma
poleon was unable to convey to him his
meaning till he reflected that the Polish
ecclesiastic was Catholic, and naturally
had learned Latin. Lets try him with
the Roman Catholic languager' said the
Emperor, and straightway entered into a
conversation with him in the tongue of
the Caesars.
The priest had nothing to give-noth-
ing. The toragers had swept the village
bare, a fact whereat the worthy ecclesi-
astic did not murmur, for where they not
attempting the Liberation of his country?
''There's priest" said the Emperor with
laugh as he clapped the good man on the
| shoulder, "there 8 a priest who doesn't
set his heart on the things of this world
Laughter, however, does not fill an
empty stomach, and the Emperor in de.
jected perplexity was gazing out Of the
window into the yard when ne espied a
hen, the solitary survivor Of the sack OF
Skrawedze.
"Reoerendissime, ecce est puzza," he cried
with citation; and summoning his aids
dashed into the garden in pursuit of the
chicken, which was speedily captured
and wrung, at least its neck.
eff you are as good cook as you are
a clergyman" said the Emperor to his
host, Il shall have famous dish of chick

in culinary lore, and every woman in the
village had fled. Two aides-de-camp
however, set about the important labor
and soon Napoleon had, with soldiers

The Poles meanwhile had gathered

their homage, and passed on, taking will

Alta BIRTHDAY FESTIVAL.

A golden milestone safely gained
On Life's advancing way,
We pause moment by its side
To mark golden day.
We gather IN this pleasant home.
With words of love and cheer,
10 greet the honored friend who stands
On this meridian year.
The noontide high of life is gained,
Its rounded summit scaled,
Thy foot rests on the mountain top
TO youths bright vision yelled.
As shadows wait not in the path
OF Moons full beaming way,
So clear and crowned amid the years,
Shines this memorial day.
The amber light of Summer falls
On this completed year,
The Summer winds are breathing low,
Soft music in the ear
Fair sunny days arise and glide
Into the evening calm,
Amid the dear old Berkshire hills,
Fragrant with woodland balm.
No iovelier scenes, no fairer skies
Smile o'e the broad green earth,
Than smile amid these grand old hills
That guard thy childhood's hearth.
Thy stream of life, whose crystal flow
In broader channels poured its tide,
With blessings in its course.
In queenly robes the earth is graced
For this, thy festal day
Full trailing robes of emerald sheen,
With odorous blossoms gay;
Affair." the silent mountain heights
Rise to the soft blue sky,
And veil their calm, majestic heads
In white clouds floating by.
Still beautiful, still bright these scenes
AS fifty years ago,
No shadow on the Summer time,
No wrinkle on earth's brow.
No charm in Berkshre's face beloved
Grows dim with passing years,
The same sweet smile our childhood knew
Sweeter to-day she wears.
A grander fame than rock-ribbed hills,
Our berkshire proudly bears,
The name OF many gifted son,
Within her crown she wears;
Rare jewels in that crown are set,
Flashing with opal light,
But blending all the rainbow hues,
Streams one pure ray of-White
The years have brought their choicest gift
And laid them at thy feet,
Home, with its pure and hallowed joys,
Its chain of love complete.
And thus we greet thee, friend, to-day,
Within these peaceful walls,
All here household band entire,
Where bright homes lovelight falls,
An honored name among thy peers
For duty nobly done.
For earnest life, for sterling worth,
CLEANS in thy manhood's crown.
The dearest names of earthly love,
OF daily life are past,
Thy daughters voice, thy boys gay sports
Gladdens the fathers heart,
The central light Of love and joy,
The angel of the hearth,
Whose presence makes this calm retreat,
The one green spot of earth,
Is she whose pure and constant truth
With love has filled thy days,
The grace Of Christian womanhood,
In all her household ways.
And so the friends that know thy worth,
Come with the clasping hand,
With prayers aud blessings share thy joy,
Within the charmed band.
Still may the unseen years to come
Open with purer light,
Until the golden Day shall dawn
Der which shall fall no night.
