The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1902-06-04

MS years OF mOSU Ia1Un1ul service
there, comes in the natural course of
things and is an augury of further
success
Druggist Fred A. Ainsworth had so
far recovered on Monday, that his
nurse, Miss e. Mcdonnell, returned to
her home in Winooski, that day.
Mrs. Martha Walker Dewey, only
child of our ex-townsman, j. Martin
Walker, now of Reynolds, Ill, is now
expected here to remain for time in
the family of Enos F. Walker.
We have heard it charged here that
physicians have arrangements with
trained nurses by which the former
are paid fee by the latter for find
ing jobs of nursing for them. On
! what we believe to be good authority
this charge has just been denied to us,
in toto.
AS we hear of the hundreds of dol.
| ars-four, five or more-paid out in
the last few years in the sickness of
one of our late younger farmers, and
as we think of the greater expenses
attending the same in these latter
days, it would seem that every think
ing person would be most DESTROYS of
finding the ounce of prevention of
disease.
Would that we were able effectively
| to report recent conversation be-
| tween certain of our townsmen who
had buried wives long enough ago to
come TO understand something of the
hard things that enter into the lives
Of such wives and mothers, things that
| these husbands had but the faintest
realization of while the women were
living. But suffice 1t to say that men
| who would spare themselves of q great
many and possibly very great regrets
later on, can hardly begin too soon to
have and to show the kindliest, warm
est appreciation of what wives and
mothers, as a rule, are doing in their
| families.
