The women who watch by the bcdsides
of the sick and minister to the wants of
the helpless are receiving well earned recog-
milton in England. Queen Victoria has
declared her intention of devoting the en-
tire woman's jubilee offering to the En-
glish Association of Trained Nurses, the
chief object of which is the improvement

by founding home and holiday fund for
overworked nurses, and the Princess Of
Wales. on becoming president of the Ma
tional pension fund, received 1000 nurses
at the Marlborough house, presenting to
each nurse her certificate Of membership,
and receiving from them collectively the
purses which they had filled toward estab-
fishing benevolent fund for their ranks
