Cheerfulness ls essential to the sick
room For this reason a sunny room, or
one with south or east outlook, Is to be
preferred 10 all others Even in cases
where it is essential to darken the room
il is better to use a sunny room, because
the light can be shut cut readily with
Opaque shades, and q suushiny room IS
more easily aired than a room where the
sun does not shine, the sunshine being
itself a powerful disinfectant Where
there is no objection, it is vastly better
for the patient to enjoy the presence Of
sunshine. The Old-time theory that a
sickroom should be parsizlly darkened
in order to present suitably solemn as
pecs has given way TO exactly the oppo-
site method. Everything bright. pleas
ant, and cheerful, from the glowing grate
fire on the hearth TO the pots Of bright
blooming plants in The windows, may
form a part Of its furniture. Cheerful
pictures that are occasionally changed, if
possible, and bright. pleasant furniture
are desirable in such room
