Miss Florence Davis Nurse in the Hospital Greene, or Children's Home at
 Buffalo. N. Y..
- NURSE i, bonored and re.nected bv

NURSE is honored and respected by A all the world because she gives up - her life to the care of the sick and helpless. Though her duties callfor loving service at any hour of the day or night the rue nurse is always at hand. None but a noble, conscientious woman could be real nurse, losing sleep and proper exercise, yet maintaining through all the dragging hours a pleasant smile even when taxed with a nervous, peevish, delirious or complaining patient. Nurses see life on it's serious side and learn to take it as great opportunity 'or doing good and being of service to the world. Hundreds of thousands of persons who have suffered on beds of disease or accident owe their lives to the faithful and intelligent care of nurse, whose knowl- edge of medicine is as useful as her ex- perienced service. A nurse soon learns a ioctor's ways and especially in caring for women their knowledge is often superior to that of the physician himself.
 Miss Florence Davis lives at No. SIS Maryland Street, Buffalo, N. Y, and she IS nurse at the Hospital Creche at Buff talo. This great charitable institution is known all over the country. As nurse sae has often noticed that doctors pre- ''ribe Wine of Cardui for patients who are ~.akened by female troubles and by the e at success this medicine has achieved Esht before her eyes she has become be- lever in Wine of Cardui and uses it with ner own patients on her own responsibility ;Iiss Davis writes.
