.hs co.o,sratIvs Nurse.

An employment for young women
that has not yet been exploited is that
of the visiting nurse This novel idea
was the result of q chance meeting Of
several matrOns in a suburban town a
few days ago.
One Of the number replied, when
reproached by her hostess for the
long intervals between her calls, that
she could not leave her little boy
alone with her one servant. "The
only time that / can get away is oc-
casionally on Friday afternoon" she
said.
This plaint led to a comparison Of
experiences in that direction. A Sec
ond caller had three children and
only one servant, so that her case was
even less hopeful. and third said:
Il have had nurse girls and nurse
girls, and they never know enough to
relieve me of the responsibility of
my baby. They seem to take up this
work because they have an idea they
do not need to know anything in or
der to do it."
A happy thought came to one wo-
man, as they thus compared griev-
ances. why can we not get nurse
on the cooperative plan?" she asked
Il mean an educated young woman Of
refined manners, so that she would
be a safe and desirable COM mpanion for
the children. II we could find such
a person who would come one day
every week, and, when needed, at
other times, it would relieve us OF
many embarrassments.
"Of course, we should have to pay
her decent wages. We have to give
an ordinary scrub woman $1.25 a day.
so we could hardly expect such wo-
man as we want to come for less than
s1.5O. For this she might come from
8 a. m. to p. m.
If we wished to have her services
in the evening, to permit US to go to
the theatre. she might come at 6
o'clock and stay as long as necessary,
perhaps for so cents. She could
easily find enough to engage her regu-
larly and so make the work pay her
at least as we'll as sewing, or many
other occupations"
All present agreed that the sugges-
tion was an inspiration, and inn
mediately a &C ". Club" was organ
lied, the initials meaning "Co-opera-
tive Nurse" They succeeded in find.
ing a young woman who had studied
kindergarten methods a little, but
had not been successful in starting a
school in the town, which already had
popular one.
Thus far the plan is we'll estab-
lished, and the members Of the club
are convinced that the problem OF
outings" for them is solved by the
visiting nurse.-New York Tribune.

Terrifying Pies.

Not the least quaint and interesting
way of celebrating the coronation of
Edward VII is that which will prob
ably be carried out at DENLY Dale,
near Barnsley. For over 100 years
the inhabitants have baked large pies
in commemoration OF remarkable
events. AS far back as the recovery
Of George III, the practice prevailed,
and another occasion was the cOnclu.
sion Of peace between England and
France in 1915 when the pie contained
half a sheep. twenty fowls and half a
peck of -four. To celebrate her late
majesty's jubilee, the pie was baked
In dish weighing fifteen cwt 1t was
eight feet in diameter, two in depth,
and the total weight was over two
tons. The cost was $3.50 and it was
drawn by ten horses. Unfortunately,
the pie, when cut. was found to be
uneatable, aud another was made in
the following September. when more
than 200O persons partOOk OF it.--Lnu-

Leopold Batres, conservator OF
archaeological monuments in Mexico,
has exhumed an ancient city of the
Zapotecas in the State OF Oaxaca. In
its center is a grand plaza. and rising
to the north Of the plaza are terraces,
on which are founded two great tenn.
pies. while in the center Of the piazza
itself are two massive mausoleums
in which the priests of the temples
were buried On opposite sides of the
public square there are also twelve
smaller shrines. six on either hand
all supported by heavy columns Of
basalt covered with hieroglyphic in.
scriptions in bas-relief. In the tenn
pies the history of the people was
found inscribed, in the language Of
the Zapotecas upon fifty tablets OF
stone. So much of the surprisingly
rare historic import has already been
found that Mr.. Batres Will ask the
government for more men to be put
