MAKING DAINTIEs FOR THE PATIENT.
from the Sarah Camp school as Millais
is from a house painter. She does not
insist on dining with the family, but
she does refuse to take her meals with
the cook.
Besides doing all that is possible for
her patient the new nurse insists on
taking care Of herself. She must have
proper food and a reasonable amount of
rest. If the case is serious enough to re-
quire it, she demands that an additional
nurse be employed, but generally she
can be relieved by some member of the
family while she gets the required
amount of sleep. Once or twice a week
she must have outdoor exercise. Then
she puts aside her uniform and goes out
for walk or perhaps a ride on her BIZ
Cycle.
4 wealthy lady ofsnobbish tendencies
once applied at hospital for trained
nurse. "And | want one that can do
without sleeping, for my daughter will
need her constant attention." she said.
without sleepingp exclaimed the
astopished matron. "Perhaps you would
like one who could go without eating
too?''
At first glance it seems that the trained
nurse is an expensive luxury. Her sal
ary is from $25 to $40 q week. the lat
ter price being charged in cases Of ma
lignant and contagious diseases. But
every physician will tell you that in
most cases the trained nurse is an
economical necessity.
AS for the life of the trained nurse
herself it is not an especially attractive
one, but the profession has its good
points, To become trained nurse she
must enter hospital training school at
any age between 28 and 35. She must
spend at least two years in study, at
tending lectures, working in wards and
learning the details which 60 to make
nursing an exact science Her hospital
life may be frightened by little firta-
tions with the young doctors, and she
may eventually become q DOCTORS wife
and not nurse at all, but Oh the whole
she takes her work teo seriously to ad
NIT of great deal Of nonsense.
And when she has finished she is not
a Lucille or a Clara Barton, but she is
self composed, self reliant young
woman, capable Of making her own
way in the world and ready to become a
ministering angel at so much per week.

to be the same building in which lived
Little Nell and in which her GRANDPA
ther, the old curiosity dealer, carried on
his business.
Like several other buildings which
have been famous as Dickens houses,
there is difference of opinion as to the
value of the claims made for this par.
ticular structure, but the weight of evil
dence seems TO be in its favor No trust
worthy clew is given in the novel itself
as to exactly which building Dickens
had in mind when he described the
house to which Little Nell led him. He
does not even mention the quarter Of the
city in which he was walking when he
met her, but Portsmouth street was
known to have been one of his favorite
haunts, and from other details which
seem to prove the case Conclusively this
particular old building was selected as
being the original "Old Curiosity Shop "
As such it has been accepted and for
many years has Eeen the Mecca of en-
thusiastic lovers of Dickens works.
One day about l3 years ago the old
street was crowded with people, all
highly indignant and talking to each
other in loud tones. Investigation
proved that rumor had been circulated
to- the effect that the house reputed to
have been the home of Little Nell was
about to be destroyed by order of the
authorities. The report proved to be a
false alarm, as the board Of works had
only ordered the building shored up to
guard against any danger Of its collaps-
ing. This time, though, it is to be de-
molished. The quaint old house is be-
lieved to have once been par of the
dairy house of the beautiful Duchess Of
Portsmouth, the baby faced charmer of
Charles II, 1t was in her honor that the
name of the street was changed from
Louoies to Portsmouth

use influence enough to carry the result

prohibition, the new premier has pledg-

said Mrs A. o. Rutherford of Toronto,
president of the Dominion W. G. I. u,
"but we are satisfied to have the issue
fought out in the open. We have un.
masked the enemy, and our friends will
know exactly where to take their stand,

we are bringing the Rev. L. o. Taylor
