DEAR c. c. AND GUARDS: To-day, when locking
the c. G. Department of our dear old TRIBUNE,
for it had just reached me, was much surprised
and not little amused al the misinter probation of
my statement regarding my coming 10 this hos
pital. Merely jest spoke of sympathy from the
G. c., and believe said that the opportunity for
the improvement of the mind is much better than
had thought. To be sure. knew that the latter
clause might be understood in two ways, but as
afterwards stated that thought seriously of max
ing medicine my profession did not in the least
doubt but that it would DO understood that here
one lay good foundation for the study of that
profession.
Perhaps a few words in explanation TO the
ways in which one may make time spent here
profitable would interest you. We have an At
tendsnts Training School here. Monday after
Moons DIR. VoMing hears the reciiations. and ON
Tuesday evenings DR.. Hill, the Superintendent, or
of the five doctors in attendance. delivers
"A lecture to the GLASS; regular course of study Is
pursued during the Winter. and in the Spring
those who have had two years experience, have
attended two complete courses flecturcs, and pass
the final examination, graduate as trained nurses.
This year there were IA graduates, seven young
ladies and seven young gentlemen, and dressed in
their uniforms-lades Ill striped blue-and white
gingham dresses and white caps, aud gentlemen

pearance. The amusement hall in the Hospital
Building WAS very nicely decorated, and the pro-
gram excellent DIR. Guthrie, of Dubuque deliv-
cred the address TO the class.
But, my friends, this is a lesson to me. 1t is a
fault OF mine TO carry testing to extremes, and L
have for some time been trying to be nj ways sim

BEWARE OF FAULT FINDING.
c. c. FRIENDS: One of the easiest things in the
world is TO find fault and in no place there
many opportunities for fault finding than in the
home There many little things occurring
where there is family of any size TO find fault
with.
One member of the family may misplace some
article that another will want. and OF course this
will give To find fault. and often leads TO open
quarreling. IL seems very natural for some to
find fault and grumbie about every thing that il
not done TO suit Them. Everyone has faults of
some kind. and most everyone fully realizes it, but
there are not many that ike 10 be reminded of
them.
You will meet with some people that have good
word for every body, and how much more pleasant
IL Is TO be in their pany than IN that Of who
il continually finding fault with others. Loyalty
