Good Nursinr.

1.-The difference between the old
and new schools of nursing is even
moro marked than that between the
modern system of medicine and that
in vogue in the days of our grand
fathers,'' said Dr. Pulser at the club
the other evening. Perhaps you
will understand this better if I toll
you q bit of my experience in the
matter. This morning I visited a
patient who had trained nurse. On
my arrival | inspected the chart,
which had boen carefully filled in by
the nurse, giving mo all the informa-
ton I could desire about the sick
woman's pulse, temperature, respi-
ration, etc, taken at regular inter
walls during the night. BY Jove, she
had put down every time that the
woman had breathed! At once
knew as much about the case as if I
had never left the bedside for q mo-
ment. After that won't to another
house whore they had a nurse Of the
old fashioned family sort. Here, of
course, had no written details to
guide mo and had to resort to cross
questioning tho nurse. Her replies
were rather hazy and unsatisfactory
until I asked whether tho pationt
had slept we'll during the night.
"'Oh, yes, doctor, I think she
must have, said tho nurse amiably.
Sho didn't wake me up. '"-Livcr-
pool Mercury.

THAT SlkDDDN TARIFF.
Comments by the Inter Mountain and
Extracts From the Economist.

Comments by the Inter Mountain and
Extracts From the Economist
Under the above caption the Ameri-
can Economist makes some points
worth considering. 1t is we'll known
that during the operation Of the Nc
kinlcy tariff democratic newspapers
were loud and often in their com
plants that 9lndel the law immense
quantities Of shoddy waste, rags, etc,
were imported greatly to the damage
Of the wool growers Of this country
They held that the stuff largely took
the place Of wool in the manufacture
Of cloths which was great injustice
to our sheep men, and promised the
people that when the democratic
party gained control Of the govern
mcnt it would remedy the evil by
giving the country tariff that would
fill the bill in every PARTICULAR
Well, the democratic party got
what it wanted, a good working
majority in both the branches OF
congress and an executive all wool
and a yard wide. And what Il mess
the party has made of it. 1t de-
stroyed silver; knocked the business
OF the country out Of sight; stopped
mining, mills and factories: threw
2,OOO.O 600 n?cn out Of work: ruined
countless thousands: took the bread
from the mouths Of as many mcn.
women and children: nearly bank
rupted the nation: forced the people
into slloddy and produced larger re-
publican majorivlcs than were ever
before cast.
And shoddy has an inning. If we
were cursed with shoddy under the
Mckinley tariff VIC are more t]1an
doubly cursed with it under the Will
son-Gurnan "pcTtidt and dishonor''
monstrOsity. While shccpnlan were
forced to compete With one pound Of
shoddy before they must compete
with over II pounds now. Here is
What the Economist has to say about
it. Let the facts and figures be dis
putcd if they can bc,succcssfully:
During the entire period Of the
Mckinley law, in that whole period
Of four years, only l,352,42l pounds
were imported while during the first
year Of the Wilson law 1866, 500
ponnds were imported. The increase
OF shoddy, etc, imported, during the
first year or the Wilson 4nw," exceeded
by IG,3l+, l42 pounds the entire four
years imports Of the Mckinley law.
The wool growing states Of California,
and Texas do not produce annually as
many pounds Of clean secured wool rs
would make the quantity Of shoddv,
waste. etc, represented by an in
crease in one year Of the new laW
over the whole four years Of the old
law. Here are the figures:

Instruments and wheels (vithout

OF ct least 30 miles every hour. (2)
Both ends arc made alike, and tho
ship can bo stopped at pleasure and
turned rs easily as Il bird can turn
(3) In time Of war it can, with one
bounce, mako holo under water in
the greatest nan-of-war as big as q

able to sink IS or IS ships, and in
three or four hours will destroy a

in eight Or nine weeks. (5) She may

After a five hours discussion OF the

commercial congress declared for the
frec'and unlimited coinage of silver
on a 16 to 1 basis, and adjourned at
6 o'clock. The vote was 80 for gold,

led the friends Of the white metal

the opposition. The debate was
spirited and participated in by most
Of the delegates. This resolution
was finally adopted:
Whereas, an appreciating money,

ing power and suspcnds the product

"Whereas, The spoliation conse-
