The new hospital cost $3o, 900, and is
OF white pressed brick. Architccturally
plain, the outline OF the massive walls is
broken on the north and south sides
by broad balconies running across each
story. In the west wall is set a series
OF deep bay windows extending the
| height OF the house and ending in an
ornamcnted turret The splendid lawn
which surrounds the hospital is dotted
at irregular intervals with sllrubbcry
and flowers. Lofty clms and wide
branched naples give grateful shade in
summer and appreciated shelter in Win
ter.
The promise of so charming an ex-
terror is amply fulfilled in the we'll APP

inside l, sgl, corridors divide III the
building from north to south. The

! by one and sometimes by two or three
| windows. There are no middle rooms;
thus each patient may have in bountiful
| measure natures own restorativc-pure
| air and a cheering view OF natures
beauties.
On the first floor OF the hospital are
located the private rooms for patients,
the womcns ward, the reception room
| where the Superioress meets visitors,
the diet kitchen where the nurses make
delcacies for their charges, and store
| room where the nurses clothes are kept.
Ascent to the upper floors is made
| either by an elevator or the wide stair
way. Each flight OF stairs leads to a
broad landing, lighted by bay win
dow, frightened by Towering shrubs
and plants. On the second floor this
stair space is utilized as little library
and contains, case OF selected books
and periodicals. On the third floor
landing splendid oil painting proves
the artistic talent of one OF the nuns OF
the order. Private rooms occupy al
| most the entire second floor. They are

bright and cheerful The dressing
room,' where surgical patients are at
tended after an operation, is also on the
second floor.
On the third floor is found the mems

OF horrors presented by the operating

delicate operations have been reduced
to the minimum. At St. Mary's hospi-

deed, its equipment is considered one OF

The Girl who Knows How.

"There's such thing as being too
smart" sighed the ambitious girl.
''It's really misfortune to have the
reputation Of being able to do things,
for the one who possesses the knack of
doing anything, from millinery to
scrubbing,is is almost sure to be imposed
upon"
1T is true that such a girl is apt to
be overworked by her friends, who,
seeing the deft fingers work SO quick
Iy, too forgetful of the strength used
in gratifying their requests to ''just
help me out on this, dear, you do it
so beautifully"
However, T believe in teaching girls
to do everything that they are likely
to need to know in every day life or
emergencies, and I am not like
the mother who would not teach her
girls how to cook, believing if they
didn't know how they wouldn't have
it to do.
But with all the rest Of the knowl-
edge, impress upon the girls a regard
for their own strength, and the power
to say no when the nerves cry ont
that the limit Of healthful endurance
is reached.

Necessities Created by New Fashions: :

New fashions often create new ne-tt
cessities, and the train skirt is new to
many of the younger women. They
find it difficult to manage, and accuse
themselves bitterly of awkwardness
when they find themselves entangled
in its clinging folds. In point of fact,
the mere phrase manage the train"
definitely conveys the idea of difficulty,
and since trains first were worn novel
lists have laid stress upon their hero
ines grace in managing them, and the
atrical critics comment upon it in like
manner.
The novice in train gowns, there
fore, does not need to feel badly over
her deficiency, but simply apply her
self to remove it. It is not weakness
and afectation to try to acquire grace
Of movement. It is duty.
The way to seat ones sell is 90 catch
the skirts lightly in one hasd, bend
one knee, and so slide down into the
chair, at the same moment releasing
the draperies, with an imperceptible
swing that throws them in sweeping
folds almost into semicircle. In ris-
ing catch the skirts in the same way,
and with a dsxterous twist of the
wrist and slight backward movement
of the foot spread tie train in It's
proper fan shape. 1t IS diff icult to de-
scribe, but little practice will accom-
plish the trick, and it is we'll WORTH
acquiring.

To Prohibit Scandalous Publications.

1t has been proposed in New York
to prohibit by law the publication of
scandalous matter found on the per-
sons or in the possession Of suicides
or Of those who have attempted sui
eide. This would be a good thing to
do. Persons who take their own lives
are often insane. If not actually
deranged, their minds are in 50 morbid
4 condition as to unfit them for calm
and accurate statement. 1t often hap
pens that, with the intention of eX-
planning their act, they leave letter or
scrap Of paper which reflects cruelty
upon the character Of one or more
living persons. The newspapers print
the letter under prominent headlines,
and the injured person has no redress.
A mere denial counts for little, and
there is no defence against the calum-
lies Of the dead.

TO WEAR ~ W.

Lace boleros in black and white
and ecru colors will be seen.
Cluny lace is used for many kinds
of gowns this year, and is charming
with all.
A satin ribbon worn around the
neck and tied in a trim bow at the
throat should have the two ends long
and tucked in at the belt.
A panne velvet parasol has rather a
warm look for summer, but it is beau
tiful. One with a white ground, with
the most delicate pink roses in clus-
ters upon it, is charming.
A woolen gown which has narrow
panel front has solid mass of tucks
or folds going around horizontally
over the hips from the panel. Large
women will have to fight shy OF such
gowns.
Some of the bodices seen are made
to blouse decidedly back and front, as
pronounced blouse effect as has been
worn in any of the time of the recent
popularity of the bloused garments.
Some Of the bloused waists are plated
in close small plaits.
One pretty little silk gown has the
fullness given it by fine tucks set IN
around the waist. These are stitched
down five or six inches to form three
points in the front and at the sides,
and below this the tucks flow out into
the skirt. The fine tucks are set in
plain at the back.
An Eton jacket on a pretty little
light stuff frock opens at the side,
and is fastened across with narrow
black velvet ribbons. There are three
of these fastenings, each with two
straps of the black velvet, with bunchy
little rosettes of the black velvet on
either end. 1t makes rather pretty
finish.
Panne velvet is combined with satin
ribbons. A sash that is worn with a
light stuff gown has black panne
velvet centre, with brilliant colored
flowers on it, and wide edges of black
satin ribbon. This is a narrow sash
width, and is tied once around the
waist and fastened a little at the side
of the front with big bow.
The new stockings are gorgeous to
behold. Black silk stockings are cut
out on the instep to show appiiques
of lace. Others have the holes worked
around with button-hole stitch, and
underneath are set pieces Of bright
colored tafeta. Black stockings are
embroidered with dots and small
flowers. The open-work stockings
are of exquisite delicacy.
A unique belt is made OF three mar
row straps of white kid over black
velvet ribbon. The black velvet is
rather wide, crushed together at the
ends in front, where the three straps
of the kid are also brought close to-
gether, and the whole fastened with g
small gold clasp. As the straps pass
around the waist they are separated
about their own width apart. and held
in place by little crosspieces Of gold

ROW B0ERS PITCH THEIR LAAGERs
Always Put Tents Between Parallel Line,
OF Hills.

-'-N'
OF Hills.
A. c. Hales, the Australian CORE
sponGent who was captured by the
Beers and released by President Steyn
writing fron Burghersdorp, says:
Possibly 1t may interest English
men ad women, too, for that matter
to know what a fighting laager is like
and, as have seen half dozen OF
them from the enemy's side Of the
wall, rough pen sketch may not be
amiss. IN war times the Boer never
under any circumstances makes his
lager in the open country if there
are any kopjes about. No matter how
secure he may fancy himself from at
tack, no matter if there is not foe
within fifty miles of him, the Boer
commander always pitches his laager
IN a place Of safety between two pa:'
allel lireS Of hills, so that an attack
cannot be made upon him, either front
or rear, without giving him an i'm
mense advantage over tie attacking
force, even if the enemy is ten times
as strong in numbers. BY this means
the Beers make their laagers almost
impregnabIe. If they nave choice of
ground they pick a narrow raVine or
gully, with line Of Ellis front and
rear, covered with small, rocky
powders and bushes. They drive their
wagons in between these hills.
''The women are placed in safety,
for it is a noticeable fact that very
large numbers of women have follow
ed their husbands and brothers to the
war, not TO act as vlragoes, not to un-
eek themselves, nor to handle the rifle,
but nurse the wounded, 10 comfort
the dying and to lay out the dead.

that speak the truth.
''The foot scouts take up their posi-
tions among the rocks and shrubs on
the hills in front and rear o: the
laager. Each scout has his rife in
his hand, his pipe in his teeth, his
bandolier full Of cartridges over his
shoulder and his scanty blanket IN
der his left arm. No fear Of his sleep
Ing at his post. He is fighting for
honor, not for pay; for home, not-fcr
glory, and he knows that on his acute
ness the lives Of ali may depend. He
knows that his comrades and the wo-
men trust him. and be values the trust
as dearly as British soldiers ever did.
No matter how tired he may be, ne
matter how famished, the Boer senti-
mel is never faithless to his orders"

The Part She Didn't Like.

The other day wee little woman
who lives in a suburb saw and heard Il
donkey for the first time, says the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. She talked about it
continually after getting home.
1t was good donkey" it was also
a beautiful donkey In fact, the
child went completely through her
smAll store Of adjectives. And when
her father came home at night he
heard the adjectives all over again.
"And so you liked the donkey, dar-
ling, did you?" he asked, taking the
tiny lass on his knee.
"Oh, yes, papa, I liked him. That is,
liked him pretty we'll, but didn't
like to hear him donk."'

Interesting Experiments.

Prof. Masso, of the University OF
Genoa, has recently completed a
series of interesting experiments for
the purpose of observing the tempera-
ture of the body during fasting and
the rate of assimilation of carboly-
rates. The experiments demonstrate
ed the efficacy Of sugar in raising the
temperature of an animal which had
fallen during a fast. Upon the ad-
ministration Of sugar the temperature
rose rapidly during fifteen minutes
and in one or two hours reached its
maximum After bread is given the
temperature will rise more slowly
than in the case Of sugar, owing to
the greater difficulty the animal has
in assimilating the food. Prof Masso
Gays that with sugar he has succeeded
IN retoring the vitality of dogs in a
serious state Of hypothermia, while
the administration Of albumen to 9TH
ers failed to save their lives.

Pretty Bodice NOVELTY.

There is new note in the bodices
Of fashionable gowns these days, and
although one that would have seemed
incongruous to our grandmothers, it
is extremely pretty. 1t is double
zephyr worsted, used to lattice work
and embroider certain parts of fancy
shirts instead of the Roman silks and
fosses that have been familiar so
long. One distinctive usage is seen
in bodices OF black satin or liberty
silk, made over white Innings. If it
is arranged with tucks-either bias or
straight, the interspaces are decorated
with working of the double zephyr.
The decoration never represents
flowers, leaves or similar designs.
Usually it is worked in a cat stitch
and, as an added touch, when the
needle points out Of each side of the
goods the zephyr is thrown about it
several times and fastened so as to
form French knot. The dress goods
under the worsted is then cut away
and allows the underlining to show
through only slightly as the catstitch-
ing was very closely done. The
worsted was of many mixed colors
through which yellow and purple pre-
dominated. Another charming bodice
was of cherry colored liberty silk
made over cream white. 1t was elab-
orately worked with black double
zephyr.
On rather fancy shirt waists this
work, though slight, gives them a
touch of style and novelty. The
edges, also of fancy and adjustable
collars, with ear points and pointed
cuffs. are being finished with double
zephyr At first they are edged with
a satin ribbon of some color in con-
trast to the collar and on the ribbon
the worsted work is executed. This
work is quickly done, and it is greatly
in its favor that no advance design
ing is necessary. A straight eye and
an adaptability in designing is all that
is necessary.
It is also feasible to fill in many
sharp little corners on gowns with a
fan-shaped bit, the stitches being
long and graduated. Again the old
Roman block design is used on straps
to cross over the vests Of bodices. By
those that know about up-to-date
s0wns, it seems as though even more
attention was paid to what is new IN
wrinkles, as such little points as this
one about worsted ere called, than tC
the excellence Of the quality of the
goods.
