The proudest nurse in the gradual

room on the first floor about o'clock
Friday night, Miss Nordquist saw a
strange man walking stealthily toward
the front door with the doctors over
coat lung over his arm. The thief
heard her coming, broke into run and
reaching the front door leaped out onto
the porch Thoughtless Of danger the
frail girl followed and grabbed the man
by the collar just as he started down
the steps. The man dropped the over
coat and devoted his strength to loos-
ening the nurses grip upon his col

WrestIes With Burglar.
Suddenly Miss Nordquist swung him
around, as firmly but little more
roughly than she would handle a re-
fractory patient, and started back into
the hallway. Before he could grab the
door jam or block the doorway with his
body she had him in the hall and was
calling for help.
Making many signs and uttering in
articulate sounds, the thief held out
card upon which was written:
"Be kind to a poor deaf and dumb
man."
I'll show you whether you're dumb"
she said and she whirled him about into
the arms of doctor who had come to
her aid The man was still for a mo-
ment until one of the nurses started to
call the police. Instantly he made
desperate efforts to get away. DR.. Ora
velle grabbed the man by the throat
and DR.. Johnson laid hold Of his legs
and together they went to the floor.
The man forgot that he was dumb and
said:
Suddenly Gets Voice.
ooh, I'd like to beat your head in"
as DR.. Gravelle's hand frightened on his
throat. The thief was held until the
police arrived. At the station he gave
his name as John OBrien and yester-
day in the municipal court his case
was continued until Monday for inves-
tigation.
The graduating exercises which took
place last night were very unostenta-
tious. Only about fifty invited guests
attended. DR.. o. Solberg, Rev. Carlson,

given to the public her opinions upon
vors to the woman's suffragists; she
would not become white ribbon
woman; she declined to identify her
self with any form of woman's work,
and so she made many enemies.
To-day Mrs. Cleveland is living a
very elegant life in the beautiful old
town of Princeton, not far from the
college. Here her husband enjoys the
rural pastimes for which he will be
famous in history, and here Mrs.
Cleveland presides over q menagc
which is distinguished for it's quiet
and unobtrusive elegance. A large
house, finely situated in the heart
of Princeton, affords the setting for
a display of hospitality which is taxed
to its utmost all the year round.
Mrs. Cleveland has fine turnout,
and in this she takes her family to
drive with the boy Richard now add
ed to the little group. After lunch
con, at which there are always we'll
known guests, Mrs. Cleveland has her
afternoon at home or goes calling,
and later the dinner is served a
function which in the Cleveland fam
lily is marked with Il dignity that
amounts almost to splendor.
Mrs. Cleveland preserves her ira
ditions in the matter of dress, and
while she assumes a Dutch simplicity
in attending to the affairs of her
own household, she gowns herself
with fine taste, which is the admira-
ton of all who visit the Cleveland
home.
Mrs. Cleveland is prominent in sew
eral New York charities, her favorite
being kindergarten work on the
East side. While not slum worker
by any means, she takes womanly
interest in matters that pertain to
the education of children and tine
placing of education in the reach Of
the very poor.
Mrs. Cleveland is now about IS wears
old. She has gained in weight, and in
stead of being the spindling girl she
was when she went to the white
house, she is a woman of fine figure
and broad bearing.
If Mrs. Cleveland carries out her
intention of mingling in the society
life of New York she will leave behind
her at home her husband, for Mr..
Cleveland is not society man, and
a dancing function bores him, while
the formal reception is to him Il
thing of acute torture.

tinguished IL place in Newman col
lege, Cambridge.
Miss Helen Gladstone is distinctly
what is known as IAN interesting
woman" Those who know this
daughter of the famous statesman,
and who stood little in awe of her
when she was Newnhams vice prin-
cipal, speak now of the gentleness in
her nature which contact with the
needy folk of Nelson square, where
the settlement is located, seems to
have magnifed.
Oddly enough, there is a striking
likeness between Miss Gladstone and
another woman whose name is as
ISOLATED with philanthropy in the
East End of London. Two faces
could scarcely have more similarity
than the rugged countenances of
Helen Gladstone and Mrs. Bramwell
Booth, of Salvation Army fame.
Miss Gladstone gave up her position
as vice principal of Newman, the
woman's college in Cambridge uni
versity, to spend what proved to be

him. The gifted woman devoted her
self to her fathers correspondence.
She was, really, his unofficial secre-
tary and scarcely left him for day.
Throughout her life Miss Gladstone
was the grand old mans companion
on his travels, she was his confdante
and his closest friend. She is said
to have been even more congenial
to him than was his wife, her mother.
Miss Helen Gladstone's career at
Cambridge was notable for a good
many reasons. 1t was there she was
intimately associated with that bril-
liant sister of Arthur Hugh Clough,
principal at Newman. The two
women did much more than merely
manage Newman college during
those years they worked together.
Miss Gladstone was president of the
Cambridge woman's liberal associa-
ton. and both she and Miss Clough
are keenly bent on raising the gen
eral standards for the education of
women in England. They are two
of the people responsible for con-
dition now most fattering to the
women of England. The secondary
education of English girls Chat lead
ing up to college work. is considered
at the present time superior to the
opportunities given boys.

The unanimous request was grant

In the morning l found him sitting

he held high carnival on the wood
pile, where he would chatter and
laugh, coax and scold by turns: "Come
here, Grip, come here in soft, coax
ing tone; then harshly: go way,
Grip, go way" 1t sounded as if two
children were quarreling.
Later he learned to say: "All right"

no farther.
One morning, however, he alighted
on the window of the schoolhouse,
tapping loudly with his beak upon the

NEW INSANITY CURE.
Wards Island On. W Physicians Are
Trying the Effects of Various
CoIOrs on Their Patients.

A new cure for insanity is being
tested by Drs. Bond and Monette on
Wards island. The color cure is a
treatment new to alienists, but one
that promises to become very success
full, for, so far, great many OF the
natients taken to the color ward have
been cured. DR.. Dent, superintendent
of the woman's hospital on the island,
directed that a ward be set aside for
the color treatment, and be fitted with
all that the experiment required.
In this new treatment only the pri-
mary colors are employed, but so com
pletely is patient surrounded by an
atmosphere of a particular color,
deemed best by the physicians for his
particular mania, that the vibrations
must act upon him. The rooms of this
ward are small, and the furniture con-
,sists of an iron bed and chair. The
walls are painted in vivid color, the
bed and chair colored to correspond
with the walls, and the light Sits into
the room through a shade of the same
color, so that an atmosphere of this
color is created.
When one of the patients suffers from
acute mania the room that is painted
black, very dungeon of Il room, falls
to her lot. Thiscomplete darkness and
the silence of the place seldom fail to
have some effect on the patient. AS
a matter of fact, it tends to soothe.
and soon it is noticed that the subject
becomes quieter Red, producing more

MRS. GROVER CLEVELAND.
Wife of Ex-President Will Spend
Winter in New York Where She
Is Very Popular.

The announcement is made that
Mrs. Grover Cleveland, having seen
her four babies out of the nursery,
will spend greater part of the win
ter in New York, mingling in it's
life of gayety.
That Mrs. Cleveland will be more
than cordially received is fact that
goes without emphasis, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
No woman is surrounded in the
public mind with greater degree of
interest and romance than Mrs.
Cleveland
At the age of 81 she married the
chief executive of the United States.
During the decade that followed
she peopled the white house with
little folks, making the historic walls
ring with their laughter for the very
first time in their history.
Other presidents had children that
were related to them distantly, or
were borrowed children. But in this
case the baby carriages were for the
use of the babies of the president
and his wife and the rattles, the go
carts, the baby jumpers and the small
pets were intended for Baby Ruth,
Baby Marian, Baby Esther and their
small friends.
Mrs. Cleveland during this time
distinguished herself by her hospital
ity and by the elegance of her
gowns. No woman since Queen Eliza
beth dressed with such superb taste.
Her embroideries, her trains, her jew
els and her color schemes were the
work of the best modistes on both
sides of the water.
1t is probable that she did not dress
extensively, but she was college
girl and college education certain
ly does tell. No Smith woman, de-
voted to art, ever achieved greater
triumphs than We're those that fell
at the feet of Mrs. Cleveland the
while she was queening it in the
white house. She was the first lady
of the land, and no less in matters
of dress than in other things.
Aside from her personal taste and
individual elegance. Mrs. Cleveland
had beauty; she was really pretty,
and this helped out the whole.
But at no time in her career could
Mrs. Cleveland, then or now, be said
to be popular. She has a great dis
taste for notoriety, and has never

HONEY IS WHOLESOME.
Furnishes Some Elements of Nu-
triton as Starch and Sugar and
Imparts Energy.

1t is fact generally known that
starch and sugar must undergo a di-
gestive change before they are assim-
Hated. But it is not so generally
known that in honey this change has
been made to considerable extent by
the bees. A writer in Health explains
that honey is easy to assimilate is con-
celtrated. and furnishes the same ele-
ments of nutrition as starch and SUI
gar, imparting warmth and energy
AS a medicine, honey has great
value and many uses. 1t is excellent
in most lung and throat affections, and
is often used with great benefit in
place of cod-liver oil. Occasionally
there is person with whom it does
rot agree, but most people can learn
to use it with beneficial results Chill
dren who have natural appetites gen
orally prefer it to butter. Honey is "A
laxative and sedative, and in diseases
of the bladder and kidneys is an ex-
cellent remedy.
1t has much the same effect as wine
or stimulants, without their injurious
effects, and is unequaled in mead and
harvest drinks. As an external appli-
cation it is irritating when clear but
soothing when diluted. In many places
it is much appreciated as remedy for
Group and colds. In preserving fruit
the formic acid it contains makes a
better preservative than sugar sirup
and it is also used in cooking and CON
fections. Honey does not injure the
teeth as candies do.
