NURSES LIVES uNRoMANTIc.

1t is generally supposed that there
is a. good deal OF romance about the
life of a professional nurse and that
large hospitals are matrimonial
bureaus where men and women fall IN
love with incessant regularity. In
actly the opposite is true. Nurses, as
q rule, do not marry men whom thes
have nursed as patients, nor 90 they
select for husbands the physicians
with whom they come in contact In
professional way.
In the last year and half but one
! engagement among the nurses at lhe
Chicago hospital mas been announced
and the incident was so unusual that

although the female attaches of the
institution are unusually good looking.
This proves that nurses 90 not
lead the romantic lives that they are

said physician. Il have frequently
heard it said that men who had been

strictly she has enforced the doctor, 5
instructions the less he has cared TO-
