IN THE SICK ROOM.

Hints BY IN English Physician ~ to the
Care Of the Sick.
Do not walk on tiptoe, for this. in
addition to its unusual elaboration of
the gait invariably causes q certain
amount of creaking.
Speak in low tones, but don't whis-
per; a whisper will often awaken
sleeper who would not be disturbed by
ordinary conversation; and never say
"Hushr' Let your clothes and foot
covering be Of as noiseless and unob-
trusive character as possible. and in
steal of gliding and tottering about
like rickety ghost. do not hesitate to
walk. If You have occasion to say
anything in the room. say it so that the
patient can hear it if he wishes, and do
not let him be aware of your conspir-
ing privately with others, especially at
the door.
The door has much to answer for.
If it be visible from the bed, people
open it cautiously, put their heads in
and slowly withdraw again. If. as is
more frequently the case, it is screened
by the bed curtains. mysterious open
ings and shuttings are heard,
unattended with any ingress or
egress, and soto voce colloquies go on
outside. When YOU enter, do SO hon
estlv and at once; do not spend hve
minutes i'm turning the handle. like a
house breaker. thereby producing a
series of irritating little clicks. finally
terminating in a big snap, with which
the door flies open. If the latch be at
all rusty, a handle that is slowly wound
back in this way will often stick, and
either require to be ratified back into
position. or, if left as it is. may start
back suddenly after a time of its own
accord. with a report like pistol shot.
1t is always well to recollect that 1t
bv no means follows that sick per-
SON is asleep because his eyes are shut;
he NAV be acutely conscious of all that
is passing in the room, though unable
or unwilling to make any sign; and
nothing can be more maddenlng. I'M
der such circumstances, than to have
people husk-sh-ing and whispering
around. and creaking about on the tips
of their toes We have all sympathized
in our hearts with poor Sir Leicester
Dedlock when his tongue was smltten
with paralysis. with his sister con-
family bending over him with clasped
hands and murmuring. He is asleep!
till. goaded to desperation. he makes
signs for his slate and writes: Il am
not.
Never stand at the foot Of the bed
and look at the patient. While talking
to him it is better to sit by the side OF
the bed, and as near the pillow as pos
sible, so that YOU may converse easily,
while your face and body are turned in
the same direction as his. BY this
means YOU can make all necessary OBJ
servation of his features without en-
forcing the arrest of his eyes to your
own, which is so embarrassing and dis
agreeable to one lying in bed, and is
almost unavoidable when facing him.
Keep him in as comfortable position
possible. by all means. but don't be
20 demonStrative in smoothing the
,illows and little offices of that sort.
Fidgety attentions will worry him and
do more harm than downright neglect.

PORTLAND, ORE, June 5.-A Lewiston
Idaho, special says: Isaac Hib5s was ap-
pointed postmaster at Lewiston. Idaho,
March, 1854. Last January the registered
mail pouch was robbed. An Off
cial investigation developed moth

an alleged silver mine on the Upper Column

the continued absence and investigated the
affairs of the Office. He found that Hibbs
had been writing receipts for large num-
Der of registered mail packages, destined
for fictitious names, to different points.
The Office at Lewistown is a mail dis
tributing point for a large number OF Offices

who then wrote to the bank that
he would shortly visit tie
town, and enclosed the money orders. lie
requested the banks to cash them and place
the amount to his credit on deposit until he
arrived. Later he wrote that ne could not
make the contemplated visit, and requested
that draf: for the amount of money on de-

A number of children were gathered there.
They had escaped death by hiding. Their
XArentS. living in the vicinity, had
all been killed. Six miles further on, az
the house OF Felix Marquez, five dead
bodies were found. Mrs. Marquez
and her seven-year-old daughter had both
suffered at the hands of the Indians before
being kslled. The bodies were ashed with
knives and presented sickening spectacle.
One of the heroic deeds that occurs on such
occasions was performed by little Willie
Carpenter. His parents were some distance
from the house when the Indians appeared.
Willie and his sister were playing in the
yard. The boy caught up his sister and
slipped into the woods. He crawled long
distance and finally reached this city, hav-

Their parents were wild with Joy to find
their children, whom they supposed tho
Indians had carried of.
