The Directory for Nurses,

Now we'll advanced in the third year of its existence has received the confidence and patronage of the public far beyond we had any reason to expect for new enterprise.
 Hundreds of Nurses have been sent to as many sick rooms, and the fact that, with rare exceptions, entire satisfaction has been given all parties, is sufficient proof that the selections have been judicious. Generally the calls for Nurses have been answered promptly but in sickly seasons the demand has been greater than the Directory could supply. Upwards of @ hundred names are on our register, representing the majority ot the best nurses in this city and vicinity, both graduates of the Training School and others.
 When the calls are for Trained Nurses, only those are sent who are graduates ot recognized schools and have had experience in the private sick room since leaving the Hospital.
 But, bearing in mind the fact that many cannot afford the expense and not every in- valid requires the special skill of the Trained Nurse, we have on our books the names of many desirable nurses who have devoted their lives to the care of the sick, and who are in every respect competent to perform the duties they undertake and for a compen- sation below what the services of the Grad- uated Nurses will generally command. It ts the object of the Directory to supply promptly competent nurses, both male and female, for any case which may present, and one within the means of the applicant. The fee for furnishing Nurse is small and much valuable time and expense will be saved by consulting the Directory when nurse is needed, either in emergency or for future service.
 Any information in regard to nurses will be furnished and all calls by telegraph, mail or telephone will receive prompt attention by E. 1. Washburn, M. D., Registrar,

Arbor.Day at the Park.

Last Friday, fixed upon for the Arbor day at
the Park was all that could be wished for in
delightful temperature, and to all its other at
fractions were added clear sky snd warm
sun. The Stonewall Brigade Band was on
hand and remained on the grounds till after
midday discoursDg music at intervals. The
public schools turned out later in the day,
and from ten O'Clock till shutdown the people
generally some in carriages. some riding, and
many walking. were on the grounds.
Messrs. Tams and McQuaide, the c. upci
Committee were busy the entire Gay in enter
ing the names of persons and selecting and
locating the trees preferred by them. Fifteen
hundred trees were planted. The entire
avenue on both sides is lined, and the curves
at the sides of the avenue filled out to some.
thing like straight borders, skirting the in.
terror or lowest depression of the vale.
After entering the Park at the water-works
and crossing the bridge to the left. the avenue
makes semlcirce within which is level
plateau, so to speak. That was a favorite
location with many who in planting trees
have them so numbered and named as to be
in perpetual association with loved ones whose
memories are thus beautifully cherished.
The ljberality and appreciative spirit i'll
which the opportunity to plant trees by our
citizens was availed of was gratifying in the
extreme. They we're taken in numbers from
one to as many as sixteen by single person.
Colonel John L. Peyton planted the entire
border of the Park from the old srring farm
residence along the Churcbville avenue and
across the farm bounding on the west with
black walnut seed. the proper way to success
fully propagate that tree.
Apart from the association with the public
Interests of park, the day will pass into
history as the first of formal effort well as
uecess. for establishing the institution of
Arbor days in Virginia.
Any persons SO disposed, can avail them
selves of personal identification with tree
planting in the Park by calling on Messrs.
Tams or McQuaide.

the heat generated in stove IL lost-it goes
through the stovepipe and then up the chin

as much fuel as is utilized. The object of the
Tanner Heat U tillzer is To save what is thus
lost, and those who will examine 1t and who
understand the philosophic principles involved
in its construction and operation, will be salts

is designed.
It has advantages over the common drum
as any one can see at glance, for 1t does not
create hot or overheated air, injurious to health,
as the drum does, but it heats more air and

Frederick Warfle.

The ma nagement take extreme pleasure in
announcing the engagement of the distin-
gushed tragedian, Mr.. Frederick Warde. which
occurs on Monday, Nov. llth
Edwin Booth is now ffty-three years Of age,
and 1t may not be long before he will perma-
nent!y retire from the stage. AS he succeeded
his father as the representative American ira
gedian-as the greatest living trsgedian, in
fact SO will some genius succeed him. Booth
stands upon the mountain top and will stand
there until he leaves the stage. the splendor of
his fame uudimmed by the presence of any
other star. A younger planet has arisen, how
ever the only one capable of shining with
scarcely diminished light in that star-eyed
realm of genius when Booth has Withdrawn
from the public gaia. He has himself scaled
to the mountain top. That man is Frederick
Warde. This rising and already distinguished
tragedian is favorite here, and we have no
doubt will be favored with full house. When
good actors. with good plays, appear upon the
stage of this city, they should be literally pa
tronZed.
