WHAT A TRAINED NURSE KNOWS


Many bright young women, says Il
late issue of the Philadelphia Times,
who have to make their own living.
are entering this noble profession, for
1t fully deserves that name. Follow
ing is an interesting statement of
what she learns at the school where
she is trained. 1t is from the pen of
a well known physician, and is pub
lished in the Iounth's Companions:
She will be practically instructed IN
cooking, and in serving and preparing
delicacies for the sick.
She WILDE taught the best meth
DDS of ventilating the sick room and
of keeping all instruments surgically
clean and disinfected.
She will learn to observe and re-
port accurately to the physician the
state of the patients secretions. expec-
torations, pulse, skin, appetite, tenn
perature of the body, intelligence-as
delerium or stupor-breathing, sleep,
condition of wounds and eruptions.
and the effect of diet, rest. stimulants
and medicines.
She will soon know how to act IN
an emergency. Many a patient has
been saved because the nurse kept
her head and know what to do at
the right moment.
Nurses are taught the administra-
ton of medicines and the application
of external remedies. how to take
notes on cases, the making up of the
nurses record, and the reports to the
attending doctor.
The course of training includes a
fixed course of instruction from text
books, mainly given by the superin-
tendent of nurses and her assistants.
Lectures and demonstrations are CIV
en- at stated times by the medical and
surgical staff of the hospital "Quiz-
zes,' tests by question and answer,
are held at intervals, and examinations
both written and oral, complete the
term.

A Complete Cure Effected by
Hoods SarsapariIla
Now Enjoying the Best Of Health,
With Digestion Perfect.

"My mother was subject to sick head
aches and indigestion for over a year.
She was unable to stand for any length
of time, and was obliged to stay in dark
room as she could not bear the light. She
had no appetite whatever and her stomach
was so weak she could not retain what
food she did eat. She also had severe
pains in her head. She suffered so much
that she became but the shadow OF her
self. One day l happened to read tes-
timonial about Hoods Sarsaparilla. II
Sounded So Truthful
/ persuaded her to try this medicine.
Before finishing the first bottle there was
an improvement in her condition. She no
longer threw up her food and her head
ache was not as severe. She took in all
four bottles OF Hoods Sarsaparilla and
several boxes OF Hoods Pills and regained
her weight. She is now enjoying the best
of health. Her digestion is good and she
can eat almost anything she wishes. She
is AZ years old and says she feels as we'll

Prompt Payment efa Big Sum

December 4th Rouse, Hazard q Co.
mailed their attorney at Chicago
draft for $17,S10.96, payable to the
Western Wheel Works, that being the
amount which had been in litigation
between the two companies for sever
al years. The ability of Rouse, Haz-
ard & Co. to forward this large sum
just at this season of the year, when
the pay rolls and other expenses of
bicycle manufacturers are very large,
and receipts very small, is certainly
most convincing evidence of the sol
vency of one of the oldest bicycle con-
Germs in the United States. OF the
manufacturers and jobbers of bicycles
who We're in business when Rouse, Ha-
zard 81 Co. entered that line, more
than eighteen years ago, the number
that still exist can be counted on the
fingers of one hand. Rouse, Hazard d
Co. report that their present prospects
are the brightest of any time during
all the years they have been in bust
ness. They now have bona fide orders
from gilt edged concerns for a larger
number of machines than they ever
had orders for at any one time.
The next Australia will bring us a
full line of these wheels. They will

ing it over those that succeed them in
the new fourth class.
While the entrance examination
standard is low, the knowledge and
proficiency demanded from the cadets
through the entire four years course
are higher than are those required in
any other technical college in the
country. The academic staff consists
of 20 or so officers, who conduct the
work of instruction which is divided
into 10 or IL departments, embracing
SeamanShip, naval tactics and naval
construction, astronomy, navigation
and surveying, applied mathematics
and mechanics, physics and chemistry,
history, international law, Spanish and
French, mechanical drawing and phys
iOlogy and hygiene.
Added to these branches is the purely
professional part of the course, COM
artillery; schools of the squad, COM
pany, battalion and brigade, street-riot
drill, ceremonies, etc. Gunnery en-
braces the distribution of the crew to
the guns with all the drills incident
thereto; the study of guns and the
metals used in their construction, the
laws of combustion of ounpowder, pen
etration of projectileS, arnlor in all its
various phases and forms, ranges, tor
pedoes, marine mines-the bare cata-
logue of studies is, in fact, bewildering
to the lay mind. All this it should be
remembered, is not mere theory. From
first to last, every principle must be
practically applied by the cadet, for the

more than $50, or a fourth class man

WHERE NAVAL HEROES ARE MADE.
The Course of Training and instruction at the Annapolis
Naval Academy.

The answer involves an account of
the naval academy of Annapolis and
OF the system of education pursued in
that justly famous institution, which
did not come into existence under it's
present name until 1850. To George
Bancroft, the historian, who was sec
rotary of the navy under Polk, belongs
the credit and honor of its foundation;
and it is a curious fact that he had no
express legal authority for his action.
Back in the ''thirties'' the method of
obtaining officers for the navy was by
the appointment of lads from II to 13
years old to be midshipmen. These
boys spent most of the time at sea,
learning the practical duties of sail
orS and young officers. Before appear
ing for the examinations that should
prove their qualifications to be COM
misSioned, they received instruction in
navigation, ETC., at different places on
shore from teachers appointed for that
purpose.
In 1915, Mr.. Bancroft induced the war
department to turn over to him the
useless old Fort Severn at Annapolis.
There he installed all the naval in
structorS, and. without asking an ap-
preparation from congress-, started a
naval school. The utility and neces-
sity of the establishment gradually be-
came apparent to the legislature, and
in 1850 it was reorganized, placed on a
footing similar to- West Point (founded
IN Washington's day., and called the
naval academy That reconstruction

Cleveland trooper, extracts from whose
letters have thrown a good deal of in
teresting light on the inner life of the
volunteer soldier. writes another enter
tanning screed from Chickamauga park.
He says:
II have just come in from drilling two
hours and half in the broiling sun Last
ni~ht at dress parade, orders were read,
and among them was one announcing
that we were to drill four hours day
from to $50 in the morning and from
$3.50 to in the afternoon. Another order
directed that we should go to bed Is min
uteS earlier than our accustomed hour.
In fact, our whole daily routine has been
changed, and the boys have at last come
to the conclusion that it isn't going to be
all play and no work. We have received
about so of our horses and expect the rest
by the middle of next week L suppose
the fun will begin when the boys start
to ride.

thing of the past, for the government

and we now expect fresh meat every day.
Anyway, we are all in good health.
1.-The mules issued to each troop are
causing little trouble. ! don't believe the
famous government mules of the last war
are in it with the long-eared samples we
have here. One of the boys was riding
last Sunday and going along nicely, when
the mule abruptly stopped to scratch his
left ear with his right hind leg. The sad
die girth broke, and trooper and saddle
went over the mules wicked head to-
gether. The trooper broke his shoulder
blade in two places. but is doing nicely
| was detailed down at the main pump
the other day and it was picnic to be
there and watch the miX-up those ornery
mules made. One of the troopers came
UP on a mule carrying the mail to the
postoffice. and stopped to let the brute
drink. That settled it. 1t was impossible
to move that mule from the pump for
fully an hour. He didn't care if he was
obstructing the United States mails, and
the whole regular army couldn't have
convinced him of the enormitY of the
offense. Finally after coaxing, pulling.
hitting, pushing and dragging him, he
trotted off. Coming back he stopped for
another drink, and we had it to do all
over again. Every little while he would
suddenly lunge at the atmosphere with his
heels, and we had to be mighty careful
to keep out of the way.
Some of the guards are very amusing.

where a German was on guard. The reg

men, against whom he was more bitter
than the bitterest British soldier.
The battle of Cowpens, in which the
sword was lost by the Tory leader, was
one of those decisive contests which
gave the patriots much cheer and
showed the British the way to defeat
During that contest Colonel William
Washington, famous as an American
leader of cavalry, engaged Tarleton
and the band of British troopers he
commanded. AS the battle waged, the
two officers pressed their way towards
each other and finally their swords
clashed Perhaps it is more fitting TO
call them sabers, as the curved blade of
; Tarleton'S blade shows it to have been
more of that class of weapon.
Washington was much the better
swordsman, and that is why he sue
ceeded by a fierce blow in breaking
down the Tory's guard and cutting his
fingers so severely that the colonel
dropped his weapon and sought safety
in flight. This was the event which led
the patriot girl to say to Colonel Tarle-
ton on a later date, when he spoke
sneeringly of Colonel Washington, a
sentence of retort that has come down
to us in history. Il am told said
TarletOn to her, that this Colonel
Washington is so ignorant he cannot
even write his own name" However
IndL may De, COlOnel 1dTIeIOH, the
lady answered, there is no one who
knows better than you" glancing at
the Tory's SCARED right hand, that
Colonel Washington can make his
mark"
Tarleton's sword is three feet six
inches long, the six inches including
the hilt. which has an iron guard. The
shank of this hilt is cased in wood
that was once covered with leather,
but this the decay of years has re-
moved. Colonel Dickson's grandfather,
his mothers father William Scott, Sc
cured possession of it as stated because
he happened to see the duel between
Washington and Tarleton. Ever since
that day the weapon has been pre-
served as a priceless relic in the fam
lily. 1t has not been given to the state
of South Carolina, but is merely de-
posted in the museum for the purpose
of placing in absolute safety such a
genuine reminder of the days when the
star-spangled banner first began to
wave.
