southeasterly direction for distance OF
four or five miles, destroyed the Schur-
meier and Good cottages on the shore q
Lake Gervais, about five miles from the
city, and killed Mrs. Schurmeier, wife of J.
II. Schurmeier, Of 40 Rosabel street; their
son, Charles Schumacher; George j. Miller,
teller Of the First National bank of st. Paul:
Rev. Mr.. Phaef1e of Brennan, Tex, who
was a guest of the Schurmeiers las were Mr..
Miller and his wife, and their servant Peter
whose surname cannot be learned.

Negative Doings For Nurses

Do not give the doctor occasion to
say upon entering the sick-room,
sThe air is close here, you must have
better ventilation"
Do not say to the physician in
charge, cdr. A. does SO and SO. -
Follow the directions of one as faith.
fully and carefully as those OF the.
other.
Do not say disparaging things OF
sister nurses. One never gains any
thing by trying to pull another
down.
Do not gossip about former pa
TENTS. Family affairs should not be
aired by the nurse.
Do not think that you know all
thatis necessary to know about your
work, but be always gathering, and
Gull the best.
Do not pour medicine from bot
tie without first looking at the label
to make sure, and do not pour medi-.
cine over the label; keep that clean SO
that the directions and the number
OF the prescription viii not be de-
faced.
Do not use dangerous medicine on
your own responsibility; have the.
sanction or order from physician
every time.
Do not forget to preach the gospel
of pure air, and practice what you
preach.
Do not ask patients what they
want for q meal; find out by other
mem bers of the family their likes and
dislikes. Sometimes they will saw
they don't like a certain thing to eat:
when it is cooked and served nicely
they will.
Donot leave food in the sick-room.
If anything that is left is wanted for
another time, put it where it will keep
fresh, and serve in another dish.
Do not fill dishes too full; better to
have patients ask for more. Mary

Nursing.
