both could make a gallant fight for
the possession Of Constantinople,
should the near future, as many con-
seryative observers fear, bring about
a war between them.
In the meantime nobody seems TO
know just what Turkey received in
the way of compensation for its cor
dial reception of Grand Duke Nicho-
las. That It did receive some tan
gible reward goes without saying OF
the sultan's advisers would not have
taken such an important step as that
of permitting. a Russian warship to
invade the Dardanelles, which was
direct affront to Great Britain, with
out whose friendship Turkey in Eu-
rope would have ceased to exist in
1877. The porte has been drifting
away from British influence ever
since 1878 when it began to court the
friendship Of Russia and Germany.
This state of affairs is due largely
TO the influence Of Said Pasha, the
ruling mind of the Ottoman govern
ment. who has always doubted the
disirlterestedness of the English, al
though seven years ago his life was
saved by Lord Dufferin, then the
British ambassador at Constantine
ple. The sultan had made up his

but the grand vizier found an asy-

he was given a cordial reception
Lord Dufferin informed the sultan
that Said Pasha had been maligned
and that he should be set free. His
majesty agreed TO the latter propo-
sition. but was somewhat astonished
when he was notified that the Brit
ish government would hold him re.
sponsible for any injury that Said
Pasha might suffer and that in case
Of his death not even a plea OF fatai
illness would be accepted. After that
Said Pasha was the safest man IN the
Ottoman realm. He was reappointed
GRAND yizier. and has ever since man
aged TO steer the rotten Turkish hulk
through the treacherous shoals OF d.
nlomacy. How much longer he may
he able TO do so is a question whose
settlement may very soon engage the
attention of another European con-
gress. In such a body France Ger
many and Austria would probably
side with Russia, while Italy whose
Interests in the east are Identical

line up on the English side.

residence Of Sultan Abdul Hamid, in
the form Of a Russian man-of-war-

passed through the Dardanelles since
the Crimean war.
L will be remembered that in the
war just named Russia was defeated
by the united forces of Turkey, Eng

90 sign the Paris treaty Of 1856, ac-
cording 10 whose provisions the car
and his government were debarred
from rebuilding the defenses Of Sc
yastopol. which had been razed by
the allied forces, and from fortify-
ing any port in the Black sea, while
the Straits Of the Dardanelles were
closed permanently to the passage Of
any ships Of war save those Of Turkey.
The Black sea, although clearly a Rus
sian body Of water, was neutralized
and closed 10 ships Of war Of any kind
except a limited number Of small gun
boats for revenue and police purposes.
Russia submitted to these humiliat-
ing conditions until 1871 when, with
ihe tacit support Of Germany, it ad-
lressed a note TO the signatory pow
srs. declaring that it positively de-
clined to be bound any longer by those
provisions Of the Paris treaty which
provided for the naturalization Of the
Black sea. This protest led to an in
ternational congress, which was held
n London, and resulted in an amend
ment to the treaty Of Paris granting
to Russia the right to maintain any
number Of warships in the Black sea,
but the powers declined to open the
Straits Of the Dardanelles to armed
vessels of any kind.
In a way the amendment Of the
treaty was a great diplomatic victory
for Russia, due altogether to the acu-
men Of the then Car Nicholas l., who,
at the outbreak Of the Franco-German
war, made an agreement with King
William of Prussia to hold Austria in
check. in case the latter country
should attempt to take sides with
France. Backed by victorious Ger
many the car felt confident that he
could extort concessions which, at any
other time, would have been laughed
to scorn.
As soon as the amended treaty had
been signed, Russia began to con-

nor could Russian warships that had
been constructed in the great yards Of
the Baltic coast enter that great in
land sea.
Naturally, Russia chsfed under these
bumiliating restrictions, and its dec
laration Of war against Turkey in 1876
was prompted largely by a desire to
force the powers to grant its ships
free massage through the Straits Of
the Dardanelles. But when the car
wanted 10 use his Mediterranean feet
IN awe Constantinople, we was warned
by the signatory powers, with Great
Britain at the head, that the attempt
Of any Russian warships to force the
straits Of the Dardanelles would be
considered a casus belli. Russia hav-
ing found Turkey a more active enemy
iban she had supposed II would be,
did not dare to defy the ultimatum Of
the European concert, and abstained
from making a naval attack on Con-
stautinople. Then followed the Berlin
congress. in which Lord Beaoonsfeld,
as the principal actor, robbed Russia
Of all the fruits Of her victories, and
left Turkey in the same political condi-
ton which she had occupied since the
close of the Crimean war.
1t transpires now that Russia has
given up all idea Of carrying its point
by force and has resorted to that
species Of diplomacy in which the
Muscovite government has never had
an equal-intrigue and surprise. A
month or 30 ago the cars ambassa-
dor inquired of the sultan whether
there would be any objections to
Russian ships passing through ths
Straits of the Dardanelles If the guns
we're unmounted and the vessels re-
duced for the time being to the con
dition of merchantmen. The porte

Women with large feet should bear
one or two things in mind. One is
that If they are big women they have
no right to expect to have very small
feet. 4 woman Of five feet six inches
height is entitled to a foot 9 1-3 inches
long. and it might be a little longer
without making her feel that the world
was coming to an end. Another thing
the large-footed sister should recol-
lect is that when she squeezes her
foot into a shoe too small for her she
does not disguise its size, states the
Shoe and Leather Gazette. On the con-
trary, she makes this more apparent

The upper clothing is not difficult

THE INVALID'S BATH.
Every Nurse should Know How TO
Make IL So as Not TO Disturb
the Patient.

One OF the most essential things
IN nursing is to learn how to change
the bed clothes of helpless patient,
without uncoyering OF disturbing him
or her unnecessarily. This is not
easy, particularly if the sick person
is stout and temporarily unconscious,
or, for some special reason, as in op-
erative cases, is not allowed to turn,
or even move a limb. This, says the
New York Tribune, is the time when
a nurse shows her skill, patience and
tact.
Without fuss, without hustle, with
out noise, she has everything in read
iness-sheets, pillow cases, draw
sheet, etc, all aired and warmed.
Then she places a protected hot-wa-
ter bag at her patients feet, for it
must be remembered that, owing to
their lowered vitality, the sick are
extremely susceptible to cold and the
least change of temperature, hence
the absolute necessity Of having the
sheets thorougly warmed before ven
turing TO use them.
The pillow or pillows not in i'm
mediate use are first changed. The
nurse gently and quietly passes her
arm under the patients head ana
shoulders, raising them only just
enough to allow the easy withdrawal
of the soiled pillow with the olsen
gagged hand; then, with the same
hand, she takes a clean pillow and
slips it under the head, even as the
other hand is slowly withdrawn, leav-
ing both free to adjust the pillow to
a nicely. Never shake or pat pil-
low on the bed.
The bedclothes are then loosened
at the head, side and feet on that
side Of the bed furthest from the
patient; the upper clothing is now
tucked well around him, and the
soiled under sheet is pushed up close
against his side.
The clean under sheet, which has
previously been rolled (see diagram)
is now laid on the mattress, the
rolled side against the patient, and
the loose side toward the nurse, who
forthwith proceeds to tuck it well in
at the head and sides. The rubber
sheeting and draw sheet are treated
in precisely the same manner, maxi
ing in all three rolls, one against the
other, next the soiled sheet by the
patients side.
Now, if the patient is not too weak
or helpless, he can easily be moved
over the "rolls" to the freshly made
side Of the bed, but if this is impos-
sible, then some one on the opposite
side has to give the nurse a little as
sistance in the following manner:
While the nurse with both hands
presses down on the mattress-at the
"arch," or small" of the patients
back, where there is least pressure
she pushes the soiled sheet, bit by
bit, from under him, while her assist
ant in like manner draws 1t toward
herself, being careful meanwhile to
keep the patient well covered.
The same process is gone through
with the "rolls" Of clean sheets and
