l am in favor of improving the con-
dition of our Hospital, and Recommend
ed an increase in the appropriation in
my bisnnusl report in 1884. | am also
in favor OF moving heHospital outside
the city limits, but these can only be
done by legislative enactment. Mem
phis should have a new Hospital with
all modern improvements in heating,
ventilation, etc, built outside the city
limits in order 10 avoid embracing its
mortusry reports in that of Memphis,
and an increase in the appropriation
of $4,000 to $4,000. With this
amount the comforts OF the Hospital
could be increased, its efficiency aug
mented and its death rate lowered.
Without an increase in the %appropria-
ton it is impossible to do any better
than is being done at present.

THE WOMEN'S EXCHANGE.
The New Departure worthy OF Con
erAI Approval.

The new departure Of the Women's
Exchange in taking q homelike house,
centrally located, adapted TO the pur-
pose, and also furnishing extra &C.
commodations for successful business
women in other lines, is worthy OF
more than passing note. 1t is an out
pat Of the true idea concerning help
iulness toward dependent woman.
She needs such q demonstration from
such a source, thai labor is an honor
able thing in women; that patient in
dustry, and pluck and skill will win
both money and respect-ior women
as for men, and from women as from
men. Up to this time the Exchange
hes addressed its efforts toward find
ing a market for such skill as might
reveal itself, and stimulating to better
work By competition and better pay,
and with very good success. NOW, an
advanced step is taken a higher plane
is occupied, while holding more
firmly the lower. The clear
sighted aud brave women-our own
wives and els era and daughters
| who, not satisfied that the Exchange
should be an immediate succor to a few
really needy sisters, now aspire to
make the very building which houses
it an exponent, in some degree, OF sail
respecting and Independent woman
l%inese, are thereby setting up a beacon
light to all struggling womanhood,
The new enterprise is a courageous
one, a noble one. 1t needs and de-
serves the hearts aud the hands Of thil
generous community.
