duires three years to complete. This years
graduating class contained several from
the hospital. Neatly whitehead attendants
shut in a part of the platform with screens
for a minute or two, and when the screens
were removed the audience saw a regular
iron hospital bed, with whitest Of linen
and in the bed a patient. This patient, the
graduate explained. was supposed to be suf-
fering from a severe attack of fever, and
the graduate proposed to show the audience
what ought to be done in such a case.
TRAINED NURSE DEMONSTRATION.
A clinical thermometer stuck in the
patients mouth and left for a questiona5ly
short time, revealed the truly alarming
fact that the patients temperature regis
tered los degrees. In this emergency a cold
bath was evidently required. A rubber sheet
was deftly slipped unuer the patient. the
head of the bed eivated, a pan set at the
foot to catch the water and then, willy
nilly. the boy who had been drafted to
personate the patient, got a good sponging
in cold water. Another trial with the
thermometer relieved the anxiety of the
audience by informing them that the
temperature had fallen to only half a de-
gree above the normal. Some simple RENE

a reward. however, he having continued to
improve rapidly. he was fed with a most
tempting-looking repast which the nurse
provided and set out on a swinging hos
pital table. the patient being bolstered up in
bed TO eat. Convalescence being the result.
the screens were brought into requisition
again and the stage cleared.
All this is only a part of what this days
commencement at Tuskegee Institute, this
year, showed me-a commencement the like
OF which for novelty and utility l believe
il will be hard TO surpass. Is it any Won
der that the Governor said that Alabama
is proud of Tuskegee, and that two men,
bers of the London, England, School
Board, sitting on the platform. said that
they had come 1000 miles to see Tuskegee.
and that if they had come solely for that
and had seen nothing else they would have
been well repaid?
OF course, there were diplomas, tied up
with white ribbon. 1t would not have been
a real commencement unless there had
been. And there ought to be. These young
men and women have worked as hard for
their diplomas as ever student worked.
Yes; harder. a good many times Of them.
That young man has worked five long
years TO pay his way. That slender young
woman. with sensitive oval face and way
ing hair. has worked for four years in the
laundry here. l do not mean that she has
learned only laundry work. She has been
a good student in the academic classes.

returning in a trice from a nearby boys
dormitory with two enormous wooden bed
blankets, drape the hen coops from top to
floor. The roosters subside and probably
put their heads under their wings and go

"Our
Counfrg's Sforg''

Miss Eva March Tappan. head of the
English department in the English
high-school at Worcester, is the author
of a number of historical works for
young readers. With one exception
these books have been reviewed in
these columns. The duties of the head
of a department in a high school are
ing that only the steadiest inspiration
is equal to the tasks which Miss Tap
pan accomplishes so brilliantly. in her
latest book, Our Country's Story" she
relates the story of the United States
from Columbus to President Mckinley.
There are historians with a passion
for facts and for the philosophy of
events. They tell the story of what
ever epoch or nation they have chosen
accurately enough, but their style is
fitted only for readers who themselves
have a talent for history, who delight
in musty, fusty annals, and who can
draw their own conclusions and con-
struct their own philosophy from re-
mains unintelligible to othess. Miss
Tappan has chosen to write for young
people, and / know of no other writer
whose style is at once so simple, so
unstudied, so graphic, or of one whose
works are so nicely calculated to at
tract and hold the attention of young
readers.
Miss Tappan writes boldly and with
out wasting time over disputed points.
She works rapidly for effects and sue
ceeds as she goes. When this book is
read the mind holds the work as a
whole. 1t is like looking at a statue
from the distance at which the sculp-
tor intended the spectator to stand.
Nearer than that, the eye seeks for
detail and misses it. From the selected
point of view nothing is lacking, and
the rapid thumb and craving tool has
accomplished an impressive, memoir
able work.
The characteristies of Miss Tappan's
