An IInnortant (Duestion

A Chicago Judge Renders - Decision on
an Important Question.
CHICAGO July ls.-A decision was rcll-
dered by Judge Tuley to-day in a case in
volvins an important question said never
to have been passed upon before by any
court. 1t was suit by Oppenheinicr L.
Co., manufactures o! sausage castings in
Chicago and New York, to prevent
by injunction George j. Sayrc, former
cmplnyc, from going into the same bust
ness in Illinois and ten other states within
three years from the date he ceased to be in
their employ. The consideration named in
the contract was 81.
Judge Tuley decided that as result of
modern methods of commerce, it made no
difference whether the contract was rs to
one or more states, but that as the COM
piainant was only employed from
week to week, he was made to
agree that for IL and employment for
one week he would mortgage his liberty of
action and practically his means Of liyeli
hood for the space ., three years. While it
might do in law it would answer in equity
to reply that all other pursuits and trades
were open to him. The Injunction was
dissolved.

Negative Doings For Nurses.

Do not give the doctor occasion to
say upon entering the sick.room,
"Thea 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
tients. Family affairs should not be
CARED" by the nurse.
Do not think that you know all
that lis necessary to know about your
work, but be always gathering, and
Gull the best.
Do not pour medicine from o bot
tie without first looking Mt 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 will not be de-
faced.
DO not use dangerous medicine on
your own responsibility; have the
sanction or order from a 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 a meal; find out by other
members of the family their likes and
dislikes. Sometimes they will say
they don't like u certain thing to eat;
when it is cooked and served nicely
they will.
Do not leave food in the sick-room.
II 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 tor more.-Mary
