An old nurse. a veteran of the train
Ing school says that not one person IN
a thousand knows how to pillow an ach'
ing head. THE average patient has
difficulty in breathing. To take the load
off the poor chest, which at hest rs
hardly equal to its work, should be the
object of the person who arranges ms
pillows. What does she do? Stacks the
pillows like d pile of bricks; the hea"
is thrown down on the chest, ih'
shoulders pushed forward and expansion
OF the lungs prevented, Instead OF lean
ing on the pillows they lean upon tha
patient" -------..---,..

How Babies Are Made III.

Bad ventilation deforms more children
and destroys more health than accident
or plague. There Is reason to believe
that not u few of the scrofulous diseases
common among children proceed from
the ignorant habit of being put to sleep
in beds and perambulators with the head
under the bed-clothing, and so inhaling
air already breathed and further con-
taminated by exhalations from the skin.
Plain talk is heard at the clinics Of a
great city. 1t is the only way to impress
the dense.
Look here" the pathologist was say
