Registration Of Nurses.

The common experience of the physi-
clans in this city Is that it Is very diff
cult to procure competent nurses for
their patients in cases of severe sick
ness. In talking the matter over they
mentioned the matter TO Registrar
Frazer of the Board Of Health, and
that gentleman Immediately went to
work aud aided, by the suggestions Of
the physicians, has formulated con-
venient schedule for registration of
nurses at the Board of Health office.
The registry book is indeXed, and hand.
somely ruled and printed by the James
& Webb Printing Company. A nurse
desiring to register must first call AT
the Office Of the Board of Health and
procure from the Registrar blank
which reads as follows:
WILMINGTON, Del, -, 1SS-To
the President and Members of the
Board of Observation-Disclosures We, the
undersigned, do recommend -
- to be a competent and experienced
nurse for sick persons, being trust
worthy and industrious.
Then follows the names Of those re-
commencing the applicant.

pies two pages, the following facts be-
ing given in regard to them

or course it is requisite that the per-
sons who recommend the nurs'
should be reputable citizens, as their
names will be entered upon the record
and will be referred to by those in quest
of nurse Nurses cannot fail 10 see
that it will be Of great benefit to them
to be registered, because their names
will. be constantly brought before those
who are in need OF their services, and
when it becomes known that the best
nurses are registered. pa ties in need of
them will immediately 60 srraightway
to the office and search over the regis
try. No fee is required to register, nor
no fine will be imposed for those not
but it is hoped that all the
good nurses in this city will find it to
their interest to register.

Gus mart centres of the Old

of purpose is essential in a

and our customers, who have
looked closely into our meth
DDS, readily perceive the rare
advantages we are able to
offer them. The call from
to-day now is to hurry up the
cases from the Custom House
and open out more goods.
