POULTICES.
Directions Worth Remembering by
Professional Nurse.

Directions Worth Remembering by a
Professional Nurse.
1t is most useful to know how to
make poultices properly, and the
following hints by a professional
nurse, are well worth remembering.
In making a linseed poultice it is
better to use crushed linseed than
linseed meal, for the reason that
the former contains the natural oil
so good for the patient. Of course,
the hotter a poultice is applied the
better, but don't scald your patient.
All materials used, basins, linseed,
etc., must be thoroughly heated,
and when carrying the poultice up
stairs take it between two hot plates.
Some doctors like a poultice of
bread and linseed. Take equal
quantities of linseed and stale bread
crumbs, mix them, and make into
a poultice in the ordinary way.
For a mustard poultice-a very
valuable counter irritant-take
three tablespoonful Of dry linseed
and one tablespoonful Of dry mus
tard; mix, add boiling water to the
correct consistency, stir well, and
spread on brown paper. A fine
skin may require that muslin be
put over the surface of the poultice,
or a few drops of oil to prevent it
sticking. But no poultice, if pro-
perly made, should stick to the
skin. A mustard poultice is some
times made by taking one table
spoonful of made mustard and
spreading it over an ordinary lin
seed poultice.

Women's work as poster artists
is interestingly described and hand
somely illustrated in DemOrest's
Magazine for October.
AS the skirts of dresses collapse,
petticoats begin to swell, and starch
is at a premium. Slumpy skirts
are not at all graceful for other
uses than as draperies for statuary.
No stiffening material is used in
the new sleeves even when they are
made moderately full. The idea
seems tie be to produce dropping
effect and suggestion of collapse.
Among the most popular autumn
fabrics are the silk and wool mix
lures that come in checks and
stripes. They will be made up in
tailor styles, also in more elaborate
fashion.
The work of improving the over
crowded portions of large cities by
means of small parks for recreation
grounds is set forth with abundant
illustrations in the October number
of Demorest's Magazine.
Velvet will be one of the leading
materials for autumn wear.
Whether in colors or black, it is
one of the handsomest and most be:
coming of fabrics. The new makes
are very durable and do not crush
or spoil with dampness.
Lovers of good fiction will be
interested in the October number
of Demorest's Magazine. In addi-
ton to a delightful installment of
Robert Louis Stevenson's last novel,
it contains strong story by Gilbert
Parker-"The Lone Corvette"-
which is one of the best he has
written.
The fifth article in Demorest's
valuable series on Colleges for Girls
appears in the October number and
deals with Smith College, in quaint
Northampton. 1t is, as all of these
articles have been, finely and fully
illustrated, and is well worth con-
sideration by parents who are in
tending to send their daughters
away to school.
A lively symposium on Women
in Politics, done by active women
politicians-Republicans, Demo-
Gratis and Populists-appears in the
October number of Demorest's

they are doing and what they hope
to attain by it, and shows that at
least they are working earnestly
and from conviction.
