Long and loud is the outcry among
women of the better classes for profitable
occupation, and many are the complaints
from all quarters at the lack of lucrative
employment. To the superficial observer
the complaints appear to be just, and the
outcry, ~Iaudable; it is only when you
scratch below the surface of the trouble
thai you become acquainted with its real
nature. From those who have interested
themselves sufficiently to make careful
inquiry into the subject, we learn that in

The old idea that children should be
made to go to sleep in the dark, under all
circumstances is no longer held, physi-
clans declaring that. as a rule, there
should be a night light. especially if a
child is at all nervous or afraid. Children
are sometimes afflicted with a disease
known az nocturnal terrors." and they
should be treated by a physician. Many
mothers do not realize that it is a disease
and aggravate it by scolding and punish
ment.

COMFORT FOR WouNDED
No Expense Spared In Equipping the
Hospital Ship Relief.

Probably it will be some satisfaction to
the friends of volunteers who have been
wounded by Mauser bullets to know that
lying off Santiago is the most completely
equipped hospital ship ever fitted out.
This Is the Relief. which recently sailed
from New York with afull complement of
skilled surgeons and trained nurses.
BY utilizing all the space $50 patients
can be handled on the Relief. Every
modern device known to science for aid
ing in the recovery of injured men was
made part of the equipment, for Major
Torney, the surgeon under whose direc-
ton the ship was fitted out, was told to
spare nc expense. A feature of the five
big cool wards, into which the Relief's
decks are divided, are double decked iron
cots.
The beds are generous in size, being
what is known as the three-quarter bed,
having first a woven wire mattress, over
which is a cheap but comfortable mattress

Fatal Internal Injuries.
r. L. Bowles, the motorman who was
injured in the collision of two cars on
the NJ, r. & K. road Tuesday afternoon
is in a very dangerous condition at St.
Mary's hospital in Racine. Both of his
legs are broken and one of them so
seriously mangied that tho doctors
deemed amputation would be necessary.
However. on further Investigation, it
was found that the man was so seriously
injured internally that his death is eX-
pected at any moment. Bowles, the
motorman, is married and has a family
in Minneapolis. The others who were
injured are all improving. The man
ayers of the road when asked in regard
to the accident refused to give out
anything for publication, except that
the affair was the result of mistake.

SUIT WILL BE FILEDs
Attorney Bohmrich Busy Making out
the Complaint.


Notwithstanding the recent action of
the city council in resembling their
action in allowing the city attorney
| $3.50 to procure assistant counsel to
help in prosecuting the suit against the
Northwestern railroad company, the
suit will go on and the attorney will
fight it out alone. The complaint
against the companyis now being pre-
pared and the city attorney hopes to
bring the case to trial during the March
term. In speaking of the suit today
Mr.. Rohmrich stated that he had little
hope of bringing it to an immediate
trial as in such suits the company
usually files a demurrer and afterward
by some way or other managed to settle
them out of court. The outcome of the
case is looked forward to with great
interest.
