One of the most disagreeable features
of a protracted illness is the more Or

tient is subjected. II he is compelled
to keep his bed, his discomfort and i'm
patience are of course greatly intensi-
fed.
Even in health a life spent in bed
would soon become intolerable to the
most arrant %sluggard; and we can well
pardon one whose nerves have been
made irritable by long confinement, for
showing at times a dissatisfaction with
everybody and everything around him.
A little skill in the arrangement Of the
bed, however, will at least render the
patients condition endurable.
First of all, we must have a mattress

one stuffed with curled hair will exact

1t is better to be over-particular in this
respect, since during q long conane-

If there is any trouble from Assesses

The coverings Of the bed should be
warm, but not SO weighty as to be un-

THE cHILDREN'S VACATION.
1t Should He Made as Enjoyable rs Pos.
sible.

9tDIe.
There are many persons who never
seem to think that pleasure should
form any part of a child's~ vacation.
Tasks without number are frequently
liked for the future vacation time.
Things that can not be done during
schoo seasons are put aside to be fin
ished during vacation. Work that can
not be undertaken at any other time is
reserved for this, and when free from
lessons there are many children who
look forward only to n dull round of
uninteresting labOrs, with no prospects
of amusement to cheer them.
When the last day of school comes
and others are talking about what "a
good time" they are going to have,
there are always a few heavy-hearted
children to whom the wore vacation"
mean nothing but a new form of
drudgery and the certainty that a great
many ~disagreeable things that they
have heretofore not beef called upon
to do will loom up in the immediate
days to come.
1t is Q great mistake not to empha-
size the vacation season SO as to give
the little Ones something pleasant to
remember. 1t is a great comfort if, in
later years, when the cares and bur-
dens of life weigh heavily, to be able
to look back upon good times when
lessons were put away and when prom
ised pleasure-occasions that had been
looked forward to for a long time were
enjoyed with that keen delight hat
only the happy childish appetite is
able to appreciate. Heaven pity
those who have no such things to look
back toll Life is robbed of one of its
sweetest memories.
1t ought to be the special aim and oh.
ject of all parents to SO manage their
affairs that they ear give their children
amusements and ~recreations hat will
last them all through the wearisome
journey of life. AS people grow older
they become Retrospective, and when
there are bright, sunny n enter
tanning things to remember, royal
good times that they used to have,
there is a well-spring of contentment
ever ready to be drawn upon al
command. And these good times ough,
to be associated with the parents them.
selves. 1t is a pitiable state of things
when the pleasures OF youth bring to
mind faces other than those under the
home-infuences, when our good times
recall outside friendships and the most
delightful membranes r of days
and hours spent under strange roofs.
People have but little realization OF
what this means until they haye suf.
fered it. When parents learn to asso.
ciate themselves closely with all the
red-letter DAYS and most charming
memories of their children, they will
have learned one Of the most import
