To Purify the Sick Room.

The utmost cleanliness is essential in a
sick room. Water should always be at
hand, and the sponge freely and frequent
ly used. Everything offensive should be
instantly removed. a little aromatic vim
egar, or lavendar water, or other perfume,
may be employed, according rs they are
grateful to the sick person, but these
should never be employed to disguise odors
that would otherwise he offensive. To
ncutralize all unpleasant odors the fol
lowing wash should be employed in every
department of the sick room: Take an
ounce Of chlorate Of lime and dissolve it
in II gallon Of water or about one dram
to pint and keep II closely corked The
floor, wood work and all parts of the sick
room may be sponged with this, with the
exception of metals and colored cottons or
cotton clothes. Although the smell of
this solution may Mt first be offensive it
will soon pass off, and leave the air of the
apartment perfectly sweet and purified, it
being at the same time perfectly harmless
to the invalid. New York Ledger.

multitude Of observers have noticed a
vast difference in character between the
Frenchman and the French woman. So
little does this difference appear to be re-
lated to the common distinctions of sex
that 1t has often been Said that in France
the woman is the man and the man the
woman. Making allowance for absurd ex-
aggeration, there is something to support
the paradox. II Il the disposition of the
average French woman to take life much
more seriously than the average French
man; to realize and accept the obligations
and duties in a nobler spirit of self sacrifice
and courageous endeavor
Women Of pervcrsc nature, and whom so
ciety has spoiled, still represent but small
minority of their sex in France. The ma
jOrity,o whom the world knows very little
and cares to know little, because they be
long to the humdrum level of humanity
are endowed with admirable qualities for
fighting the battle of life As married
women they fight this battle SO well that
in nunberless instances their clear sighted
ness, economy and energy have saved their
families from ruin. Their capacity for
business and every kind of industry suited
to their physical strength has without
doubt caused ii great deal to he eXpected of
them which they might have escaped had
they been otherwise constituted.
Thus the wives Of small tradesmen very
frequently do all the bookkeeping in nd
dition to their household duties; the wives
of peasantsw work in the fields from sunrise
to nightfall, and the wife of mechanic or
town laborer is expected to bring nearly as
much money us himself to the house by
dressmaking, artificial flower making,
: charing or some other occupation. But
this Is not all. 1t is upon his wife that the
town workman relies when he is out of EN-
ployment With all women solicitude for
their children is the great incentive to ex-
ertiOn. The Partisan workman often profits
by this law of nature, and he would proba-
bly, be worse off II he had no family. 1t is
no rare thing for French bcggar to urge
as Il reason for helping him that he has no
wife to rely upon when he is out of employ
ment.-Leisure Hour.

"The proper way to brush the hair" says
a well known hair dresser, sis not to brush
it lengthwise, but TO hold the ends of the
hair, if it is long enough, and simply scrub
the scalp with the brush. This process
promotes the circulation of the blood and
excites the oil glands to action. After the
hair has been thoroughly brushed in this
way it should be then finished with few
vigorous strokes lcngthwise of the hair.
