We have much evidence of the inestimable benefit
homes in general that has been derived from the
establishment of this work.
There many intelligent women who are un-
able TO give to study the length OF time required
become q trained nurse. and there many fami-
lies who for economic reasons obliged do
without trained assistance in times of Illness. II
Is to afford such homes better aid at moderate
compensation and to offer honorable means of
livelihood to women that this work has been estab-
lshed.
Applicants for admission to these classes fully
understand that the position OF an attendant Is
not that OF Il trained nurs~ The of study

Nine schumann-Heinks English vocabulary is
limited so that her gracious attempts con-

AT THE LONDON HOTELS.

The increase in the number of large hotels in
London is undoubtedly making considerable differ
ence in the business of some of the older hotels,
and in addition to this cause must be added the
absence of so large number of the best customers
in South Africa. Notwithstanding all this, there
some of the favorite hotels which seem to be
enjoying as much patronage Taking the
famous Savoy and Clarldge's examples. 1t is a
revelation to the stranger in London TO drop into
either Of these fashionable hotels at the luncheon
dinner supper hour and the crush of society
people that fill the restaurants. One is sure to
meet many persons there that other times are
met at the Waldorf-Astor!a or at the Grand Hotel
