1t may be claimed that the leading
commercial nations will not enter into
any bi.metallic arrangement; and
therefore, that international bi.metal.
lism is impracticable. In that case let
US do the next best thing. This Coun-
try can carry large stock of silver In

Latin union has done; and the nearer
the commercial ratio we keep, the
more, relatively, we can carry. If We
cannot do what we want TO, We must
do the best We can under the existing
conditions. All the leading CONNER
cial nations, today, are on a gold basis,
and if they continue to remain on that
basis this country will not join the half
civilized nations of Asia and South
America who are still on silver basis.
That is not the direction modern civil

THE MOST IMPORTANT METAL.

The most important, as well as the
cOmmonest, metal of the world is iron
1t is almost everywhere in nature. We
are bombarded from cosmic spaces by
mcteOrites of nearly pure iron; the
spectroscope finds it in the stars so dis
tant that the naked eye see but empti-
ness in the abysses wherein they burn.
1t makes a twelfth part of the crust of
the earth. Its particles are mingled in
the dust of every country road, in the
air we breath, in the water we drink, in
the food we eat. 1t is the great COLOR
ist of nature. Even the red of our
blood is due to its presence.-En.

FISHERMEN REsCUING THE PAS

When at last he turned away toward his
own home at the end of the village
! there was an elasticity in his movements
and a brightness in his eyes such rs
they had not known for many long
year.
Sunday evenings he was accustomed
to spend by himself, and knowing his
wishes, the fishermen seldom disturbed
him. But this day and evening seemed
destined to unusual interruptions
| Scarcely had he cleared away the re-.
mains of his frugal supper when steps
sounded outside, followed by a sharp
| knock.
Come in,' he called; people do not
stand upon ceremony here. Every
mans home belongs to his neighbor."
The door opened, and a short, fat fig
Gre appeared,
sS"I beg your pardon, Mr.. Big John, y
he said, as he glanced about the roomi
with quick, scrutinizing eyes, butt
I-you see, we all of usfeel very grateful
| for that nights work, and so we've
watched you rather curiously to-day,
and Ter noticed that remarkable sig
net ring on your finger. Some bit OF
fotsam, l suppose. May l ask how il
came into your possession"'
ut is a family trinllet, and my only
connection with the past" said the old
man, gravely. 1T never leaves my pos
session"
"Ah! I'm! May look at it? Thank
10 10, ha ri 10
''it is as l thought. A very remarkable
ring. | do not question your statement
Mr.. Big John, we are very grateful, but
this ring has no counterpart in the
world. 1t was on Lord Sedgwioke's
| finger when he was drowned. OF course.
| understand it is all right. You are
| fisherman, and accustomed to pick up
strange bits of wreckage, and we are
very grateful. Certainly, it is remark
able circumstance, but we are very
| grateful, indeed"
At this moment footsteps again
sounded outside, followed by a sharp
| knock, as before. In response to the old
, mans invitation to enter, the door
opened, and the man who had called
himself Robert Esleigh stepped into the
room.
"Ah, you here, doctor?" Then, turn
| ing to Big John, he held out his hand
| impulsively. 81 would like to shake
hands with you," he said, "and to thank
you for your brave conduct of the other
night. 1t was CALAMITY done"
Instead of answering, the Old man
took his hand and gazed long and ear
nesuy into his face
You are Robert, Lord Esleigh," he
said at last, mUsingly. Il can see the
same frank, open face and noble car

rive" he continued, as he deXterously
drove home piece of oakum and COW
cred it with red lead and putty. 'why
we would put you into our boats and
head for st. Johns; but at this season
it would be death for the demoiselles.

assured we appreciate them to the full

TO find the tall, white-haired man who
directed the rescue last night? l have
not seen him since"
"Eh! Big John? You should seek
him on the sea. Always he is there, eX-
>cept Sunday. To-day is Saturday. To-
morrow he will be here. In the morn
ing he will have Sunday school; then he
will give us older people discourse. In
the afternoon he will teach the children
how to read; and those of us who are
i'll will go to him and find out what is
the matter and get medicine. Big John

Non, nonl Could you not tell from his
calmness and his way of giving COM
mands that he had been great soldier
somewhere, some time? / know moth
ing of him but what l have seen, only l
have eyes and l have ears"
The next day many curious chances
were directed toward the bowed, mas
sive figure of Big John as he moved
about the village.
Most of the shipwrecked party went to
his Sundayschool, and remained to lis
ten to his discourse to the fishermen.
In the afternoon several of the ladies
volunteered to assist him in teaching
the children, and among them was a
fair, queenly woman whom her COM
Panions addressed as Lady Esleigh.
This woman seemed to exert ali ex-

THE ART OF NURSING.


belleVc IN 'BOrn' Nurse.
a woman who is trained nurse, oc-
cupying, after years of practice, a SUI
perior place in London hospital, has
been giving course of lectures on her
profession. Her first proposition at
recent talk was that there is no such
thing as a born nurse; the habit of OBJ
servation was a duty and the basis of
nursing, which was an art only learned
by practice.
Among some practical utterances of
the speaker We're: "A sunny sickroom,
one that was entered by the sun once in
"a hours, is desirable; patients placed
on the south side in hospital ward re-
cover sooner, by ten days to a fort
night, than those on the north side.
Plenty of light is beneficial. except in
cases of brain disease. The less furn-
ture in the room the better. and to keep
it clean damp buster should be used
instead of dry one. The air must be
kept as pure inside as outside, and there
was little or no risk about having the
window open. top and bottom, if the pa
tient were well covered, head included,
and good fire kept burning. Night
air is not injurious; it is purer in a city
after ten p. IN. than at any other time.
The bed should never be in a corner. but
accessible from all points. In fever and
surgical cases, a cradle had sometimes
to be used to keep off the weight of the
bedclorhes; an impromptu cradle
could be made out of a handbook with
the bottom knocked out Bedmaking
was the grammar and keystone of nurs-
ing; many regular narses could not
make a good bed. 1t was important to
act with decision when the time came for
any office, and not to worry the patient
by hesitation or talking of what was to
be done; to tread quietly, but firmly;
not on tiptoe, and never to whisper to
third person. Every effort ought to
be made to secure for the patient two
hours sleep before midnight. Anna
teur nurses often broke down through
neglecting to take food when keeping
watch through the night. - st. Louis
