On the subject OF visitors who administer
consultations OF the highest kind to inva-
lids, it is not our intention to enlarge here:
but criti al patients might nave much to say
about It People vary greatly as to their
ideas of the proper time at which to see their
clergy In illness. We lave known some one
who have not considered themselves il
enough to see their clergymen, and others
VINO ave thought themselves much too III TO
see them.
But there are plenty Of jealous laymen and
~laywomen who are always ready to minister
to the spiritual wants Of the invalid.
Against such we nave nothing to say, but It
may be worth while to warn them that It Is
dangerous to al ouse in a patient the spirit Of
theological repartee. We would also sug.
gest, tat it is well to avoid repeating relig-
ious consolations that have air ally been ad-
ministered by others. A serious minded per-
son lately quoted a passage Of scripture to an
w IL, who promptly replied, Il was wait
ing Tor that. Yes, it Is a Ct nso,lng text; but
you are the twenty-seventh person who has
reminded me OF it"

A Kind word for the oyster.
philadelnhfa gtar


1t Is not as generally understood as II
should be that oysters have medicinal quail
ties Of a high order. They are not only nutri-
tious but wholesome, especially in cases Of
indigestion II Is said athere Is no other
alimentary substance, not ever excepting
bread, that does moi produce indigestion
under certain circumstances; but oysters,
never" Oyster juice promotes dige tion.
By taking oysters daily, indigestion, supposed
to be almost incurable, has been cured; In
fact, they are to be regarded as one OF the
most healthful articles OF food known TO
man Invalids who have found all other
kinds OF food disagree with them frequently
discover In the oyster the required ailment.
Raw oysters are highly recommended for
hoarseness. Many Of ths leading vocalista
use them regularly before concerts and
operas, but their strongest recommendation
Is the remarkably wholesome influence ex-
erted upon the digestive organs.
