AUNT JEAN'S LETTER.
II StyOAAnOMg Pzeasa1RefMgeS.

DEAR FRIENDs:-The Prot
estant Infrmary, which you now
know to be such a haven for the
suffering, has fresh coat Of pink
kalsomine on the walls of the
mems upper ward. The floors
shine, and the snow-white beds
are places of sweet rest indeed.
The foundation is dug for the
annex, and work is going on in
all departments. The sweet
faced nurses are all out waiting
upon the sick, at their own
homes, all except nurse Maria,
whose bright eyes and ready
smile make her very sunbeam.
Such a sad. case was lately in her
charge. A young man who had
had his leg injured a year ago,
in the wheat field, was brought
there suffering fearful agony.
He had, from the first, refused to
have arnputtion performed, but
now he was obliged to yield.
The physician told him his
chance for life was, at best, a bare.
possibility, but without surgery,
there was no hope. The Rev.
Mr.. Ward visited him daily, i'm
parting spiritual healing to his
soul wounded by the inroads of
sin. When the day for the ope-
ration came the sufferer sent for
the minister to baptize him, and
then went to the surgeons knife
at peace with God and man. He
three days and then he
lay still and pale in his winding
sheet, neatly dressed, with pure
white flowers in his hands. His
two sisters came and bore him
away on the sunny Sabbath day.
Mother Cronley gradually pass
ed from the condition of hospi-
tai patient to that of mere in
so she was removed to
the Home Of the Friendless,
among the other old ladies who
are so tenderly cared for. The
afflicted foot l wrote you about
is so far healed as to permit her
to walk a little way at time,
and she bears the pressure of a
slipper. May she go on to a
perfect cure.
There has been no one, as yet
in the Polly Monroe cot, but one
baby patient has been in nurse
Maria's charge in his fathers
home. Little Robert
was struck in the eye by play
mate, and a trouble arose which
required Just such hands and
eyes and feet and head as were
sent to him. How he loves her!
He is going to send her his pic
ture, that she may always re-
member her first baby patient.
Mrs. Bette was not much bet
ter, yet it was deemed expedient
to transfer her to St. Joseph's

The Lexington record. [volume] (Lexington, Ky.) 1890-1???, 1890-11-01

We wish to draw the attention
of the public to the Protestant
Infrmary. That was the pri-
mary consideration when The
Lexington Record made its first
appearance. 1t met with heart
ly reception from a generous pub
lie, and whenever it is noted
that The Lexington Record do
mates to the Infirmary, we wish
our patrons to consider the gift
as a part of their subscriptions,
to this beautiful and ea4afortable
home where they will be carefully
nursed by the tender hands Of
those trained III a knowlege Of
the schools, and where the board
will be as moderate as can be OBJ
tanned elsewhere. The aim Aof
the In6rmary is to do the great
est good with the least expense
possible to the sufferer who seeks
its sheltering arms. Five dollars
per week is the price of a very
comfortable room and the atten-
ton bestowed is worth double
that amount.

Jennie, the pretty working
girl, went away with her arm i'll
a sling to the mother whose face
she had longed to see when in
such pain in her sunny attic
chamber. At Nicholasville she
met with the tidings that her
mother was dead, and that her
little sister Annie and brother
Willie had been sent to an Or
phan's Home. What a blow was
that! Think, dear girls, how
desolate Jennie must have felt.
A helpless orphan on the thresh-
old Of life. The shock was bad
for her and she is now back
again at the retreat which none
ever seem quite willing to leave.
She sits with her right arm
bound in soothing wraps. GLOW
nice it was Of you to put me in
the paper" she said; "there have
been several such sweet girls to
read to me. They must have
read about me-" Then, her pale
cheeks flushing, she said, plead
ingly, "When l get well, won't
you keep me to find a nice place
to work?" Let lis keep her case
in view, friends.
The old paralytic downstairs
is so much better that he will
remain in his present quarters
some days yet. The younger
man with malarial fever was dis
charged well, and if prudent will
probably stay so. Father Morgan
was 50 lonely in his terrible suf-
fering that he4was sent home 20
his wife and children, but Nurse
Maria goes to him every day
with her soothing remedies, and
gives him all the comfort he can
have while "only waiting" Dark
is his earthly pilgrimage, but
thanks be to the Divine Healer,
whom ne SO confidently expects
to meet i'll the bye-and-5ye.
Mother Taylor fits about her
household duties, always ready
to do good turn.
THE CHURCH HOME
Does its steady, good work. Miss
Patsy is we'll and busy. Miss
Maggie, whose pallid face beto-
kened an early release when I
last wrote, has passed to the bet
ter land, where there shall be no
more suffering The end was
peaceful, and one morning, i'll
the bright September days, the
sun rose just long enoughto light
her earthly path to the eternal
light beyond when all was over.
Her remains were borne by the
faithful S1SteT-nurSe TO Cynthl-

comfortable abode are about as
usual.
The Home of the Friendless
has had the addition Of Mother
Cronly, already mentioned. Aunt
Patsy, the Oldest of them all, has
been very sick and could no
longer cut carpet rags for Mother
Steele's waiting fingers. These
old ladies have made many yards
of good carpet for the Home.
Aunt Amy and Dick, down i'll

ever. He chatters and scolds
like a parrot. Though the
house was not exactly built for
friendless chickens, Dicks claims
