SIR =. SEYMOUR HADEN SAYS WE BURY
BODIES UNNECESSARILY DEF.

Sir F. Seymour lIaden Of London has
practically studied for ten years the
hest methods OF disposing of the dead.
The result Of his Investigations he terms
Natures method of dispo.lng Of the
dead. by far the most practical and GER
taiuly the natural method"
H.. has buried animals, large and
small, In his lawn. By digging them up
and examining them at intervals vary
ing from one To five wears, he found that
buried at depth of four and half feet
the depth required by the government
for the burial OF human bodies-an inter-
val Of from three 10 four years was
necessary for complete resolution.
Buried ut the depth OF one foot, u year

DONTS FOR The CHILDREN.

Don't cover child's head so that il
will inhale the air OF its own lungs, nc
matter how cold its sleeping room.
Don't allow the youngster who /:
Surprisingly strong upon its feet" Il
bear its weight long at time, no matter
how anxious the proud parents may be
to show it off. Remember the danger OF
weakened and twisted little legs.
Don't allow smoking in the room
where there is very young or sick ba-
by. The thoughtful father will never
smoke in the same room with the
children; but even the thoughtless ones
should be made to realize its harmful
ness in the former case.
Don't fail to keep the children's feet
dry and warmly clad in winter and " ct
weather, for the circulation is feebler at
the extremities than elsewhere.
Don't forget that protecting the chest
is also important at this season, il We
would ward off troublesome colds from
the little tots. And their habits Of life
should be regular-the meals, the hours
Of rest and the hour of rising should all
be timed.
Don't neglect the baby's scalp. 1t
should never be allowed to become
scurfy. Ii it should become very dirty
or scaly, apply yolk Of egg thoroughly
with the fingers, and, after leaving 1t on
for a time, wash with warm, sOapy
water, use fine-tooth comb very gently
and then brush until thoroughly clean.
Don't forget to air the children's night
garments and their bed clothes with
great thoroughness every day, and to
turn their day clothes inside out and
hang them up to air at night, so that
they will be fresh and sweet in the MORN
ing.

RULES IN NURSING THE SICK:
Since graduating from nurses train
ing school, certain rules help me to act
or refrain from acting when caring for
the sick. These rules are made up from
principles and experience, and have
originated from necessity TO grasp
some tangible good rule quickly and re-
liably.
A pale patient-except some hemor-
rhage cases--should always be lying
flat; blood needed at the head.
A red-faced patient should not be lying
fiat; too much blood at the head.
Never give stimulants In any case OF
hemorrhage; the heart will beat faster,
and so send more blood from the arteries
or veins by so doing.
When in real doubt what to do, do
nothing.
For commissions, a mustard plaster on
calves Of legs; hot one applied very
quickly will never do harm.
Tie above wound when an artery Is
bleeding bright red squirting blood
Tie below wound when vein Is
bleeding darker red, slower running
blood
Almost any wound will stop bleeding
by the CLOTHING OF blood, so keep your
patient quiet that the blood may have "A
chance TO clot.
When "drops" are ordered, buy a
minim measuring glass at the druggists.
These come in little boxes together with
A drachm aud ounce glass.

The only way, then, is to prepare two

cooking utensils that one must have in
order to prepare a tolerable meal. These
should be kept until the last and put
onto the end of the load, so that they
can be removed among the first things.
Then they are set into the kitchen or

be piled upon them or in their way.
1t is wise always to prepare food for
several days in advance-bread, plain
cake, some potted meats or a pot roast
or tongue that may be sliced and eaten
cold. Coffee and tea and the necessary
vessels in which to make them should
always be kept within reach, as well
as the milk can and a small pat of but
