Food For The Sick.

From Wide Awake.
As much depends on the food of your
patient as on medicine. If one ever
learns the value of food and drink it il
over a sick person, when the procez-ee
of strength and growth alter with a few
spoonful more or less Of the right kind
of nourishment aid you feel the pulse
sink under your finger for want of the
draught of beef tea, or sip of wine and
milk, which keeps the ~futterine
strength alive. Many a patient, in a fair
way of recovery has been lost for the
want of good food to restore the lost
vitality. You need to learn much TO
cater to the sick; to give fever patients
lemons, acid iellies-not fruit j~ellies
made with sugar-but gala
tine favored with wine and a breath of
spice, little piquantsoups, a few spoons
full of which revive one so much, and
which the system absorbs as a sponge
drinks water almost apple pulp scraped
with a silver knife, or the juice from the
ripest of Strawberries, given drop by
drop, together with barley water made
in the good old way, with lemon juice
and sugar candy, and calyes'-foot jelly,
blandest and most blissful Of foods.
Nervous and weakly patients who need
building up require strong broths with
ont a bit of fat in them, sayory roast,
chicken, game and such essence of meat
as we get by putting five or six pounds
of the neck or shoulder Of beef in a
stone jar, covering tight without one drop
of water and baking in a moderate oven
two hours, The jar will be found half
full of the richest gravy, which is the
very best thing to build up nerves and
brain. A cupful of this gravy heated
sealding hot, with a fresh egg dropped
in and toasted oatmeal crackers, is a
very hearty meal for an invalid. But re-
member, all food for a sick person
must be the freshest, best quality, for
anything stale or injured which a
healthy system might get over, will
hopelessly derange a feeble one. Re-
member, also, that If half the care were
given to the health of well people that
we take TO cure inyalids there would be
very few sick. Humor the fancies OF
your patient all the doctor will allow,
If there is q craving for any one thing
in particular, whether it is roast chick.
en- in midsummer, when chickens are
scarce, or oranges out of season. guava
Jelly, or velvet cream, or white grapes,
get that very thing if you can, and say
nothing about the trouble of getting it
Tha. viii worry all the pleasure out OF
q weak patient, when 10 crafty his
taste may be the turning point to health.
1t is wholesome for people in this world
to have their own way about personal
habits anyhow, sick or we'll, always
provided il does not interfere too much
with the comfort OF others, and to the
sick everything should give way.

presiding in the Eouss Of Lords. Sher-
idan, having finisllod his famous speech
in the trial OF Warren Hastings, sank
back apparently fainting in the arms of
his friends. Edmund Burke,
at the end of a speech up
on the atrocities which might be
expected from the French in case Of an
invasion, drew forth an enormous two
edged dagger, and, excla:ming, This

the floor with a tragic gesture. Short
ly afterward Lord Cairns, speaking
against Burke (who was suspected of
having amassed his wealth dishonestly),
exclaimed: "Aaa this is the weapon
which is used with fatal effect against
you and mel" dragging out, with
Burke's gesture, q tive-pound note,
As every one looked to see him dash it
on the floor, he quietly folded it and
put it in his pocket. One of the most
noted criminal lawyers now in this
country, while pleading the cause of
his client, is invariably so overcome by
his innocence and wrongs that his voice
fails, he chokes, sobs, and is forced to sit
down to recover himself. 81 should

for such tricks of oratory, but for oratory

lily fine figure and who screws it into

lowing extract, in the hope that the
graphic account of the rally" and Of
the repulse will be read with pleasure
by the friends of the officers named, and
by a wider circle than il was intended
for; "All our officers fought like devils,
and how we only lost one / can't tell.
God is good and must have put His
shield round our brave, gallant officers.
The Colonel is a splendid man. He
shot two Arabs dead and would have
shot more, only the Government revolt
yer ammunition missed fire. An Arab
threw a spear, and just passed the
Colonel. Another threw a stone at him,
and hit and wounded him on the head
and knocked his helmet off; and he was
bareheaded under a burning sun till gall
liant Norman Macleod gave him his
helmet, and wrapped a cloth around his
own head. Dear little Brophy was hit
in the legs, and only saved his brave
life by hanging on TO the Colonel's
horses tail. When we rallied aud
formed line, I imagined I must be the
onlyoficer alive ;but, to my JOY we all met.

took place on a platform built above the pc
destal, which covered the entire park in front Of
the church, and when tho exercises began the
1900 seats provided were filled, and many spec
tators were standing on the walks and in the
streets. Directly in front of the stsue were seated
the speakers, and above them was stretched q
canvas protection from tho sun. A blue cord
was suspended on onu side, and was connected
with an American flag which concealed the
statue from view. Jnstice Miller presided, in
place of Chef Justice Waite, who was detained
by sickness. Seated near him were the speak
ers, and officers of the association and invited
guests, including prominent Lutheran
clergymen fran different states.
Senator Conger mich delivered the address
of the day, and Rev J. S. Masris, d. d. spoke
at some length. The cord attached TO the flag
