IA. nearly a mile in circumference and
tie best protected il the world. The
monastery itself is very strongly forti-
fed, being supported by round ana
SQUARE towers about 80 feet in height
xitn walls 20 feet in thickness. The
monastery consists in reality Of six
churches, which are completely filled
with statues of all kinds and precious
stones. Upon the walls and the towers
surrounding these churches are mount
ID huge guns, which in the time OF the
,'rimedn war were directed against the
British White sea squadron. The monks
who inhabited the monastery al that
time marched in procession on the
granite walls while the shells were fly
ng over their heads, 10 prove hcW little
they feared the attack CT the British
feet. Ten thousand pilgrims come an
ruully to Solovetsk from all parts of
Russia TO view the churches and the

Hourly visiting by Trained Nnrses


I comparatively recent departure in
trained nursing is what is called hour
Iy visiting. Until within q year CT
two II was not possible to secure the
services of trained nurse except by
the day or week. Nevertheless, there
were very many times when trained
nurse was needed for special duties.
such as attendance at operations. al
tending to dressings. bandaging, bath
ing and various other duties. TO meet
these needs the trained nurses in Chi
cago and other cities arranged several
years ago 10 go for so much an hour.
The plan worked well there, and was
finally adopted by trained nurses in
this city. For cases requiring about
six hours the fee is four dollars, for an
attendance Of one hour one dollar, for
each successive hour or fraction thereof
SO cents. The nurse can do a great
deal in an hour, and the patients who
are unable to have her services con-
stantly have found the new arrange.
ment a great convenience.-N. y. Sun.
