Many of the first incorporates of

were DESTROYS of making it non-sectar-

term, but it had to grow to this, just
as it had to grow from the industrial
school into the social settlement.

DEATH IS WELCOMED
BY THE DYING

CHICAGO, Nov. 28.-That death has
no terror for those who know that it
is only q few hours away, and dying is
not an unpleasant sensation, is the con-
cluSlOn drawn from the observation of
200 cases by DR.. Benjamin Reicman,
young physician who has practiced i'll
several Chicago hospitals. Why this
is true, he, says, is something that
cannot be explained.
Since he became a medical student
Dr.. Reicman has kept a record of the
persons he has seen die, noting care
fully each time the impression which
the approach of death made on the
mind. He observed his two l1undredth
case few days ago and then an
nounced the conclusion he had reached.
Persons in sound mind and body
fear. DEATH" said DIR. Reicman. "At
least the most of them do, but it is
foolish fear. Besides the shrinking
from whatever they may conceive to
be the hereafter, they fear the act of
dying as if it were some shocking SEN
sation or torture. But l have yet to
see case where dying person, even
one whose faculties were alert and who
was not suffering great bodily pain,
was overwhelmed by the knowledge
that he had only a few more hours to
live.
There may be persons whose dying
hours are clouded by the thought that
they are leaving someone dependent on
them or someone dear to them, but for
death itself they do not care. 1 have
even known cases where it was pleas
ant, apparently, and several persons 1
have seen die laughed and joked in
their last hours"
Pointing to specific cases, DR.. Reic-
man showed that the death bed was
sometimes a cheerful place and that
intense sorrow and horror really had
no place there.
"It is not only great men who die
heroic deaths" he said. Those things
sound dramatic when they are record
ed in biography, but they are common
place enough. know of case of a
young man, carpenter who fell from
a high building and was so severely in
jured that he could live only few
hours. He regafned consciousness and
when told he could not live, said: All
right. l would have liked to have fin
ished that job before my end came
He spoke in a semijocular way and
then lay back in the bed awaiting death
as coolly as though he were waiting
for coffee at the breakfast table.
Another case remember was that
of switchman who had both his legs
cut off in a railroad accident. He was
brought to the hospital and told he had
about an hour to live. He was not in
great pain at the time, and yet he
asked me if I could not hurry it along
He had no fear of death.
I'm cases of death from natural
causes there is no difference. Nearly
everyone is sorry to give up this life,
but they are seldom overwhelmed when
told they cannot live. 1t is a peculiar
psychological fact that people living

nations of lessons given by the teach
ers, or working out problems for them
selves on the blackboards. The classes,
of course, are graded and the teach
ers are members of the senior class
of the Humboldt high school. The ses-
sions begin at 1880 and continue
until 9 o'clock. There are first,
second, third and fourth reader classes.
Commercial arithmetic, spelling, writ
ing, history and geography are taught.
The classes vary in. size from week
to week. The boys and men who at
tend the school are often not able to

it, and the busiest of some of these
takes them into the country, so that
the attendance is by no means regular.

work soon began to overlap that of
the Neighborhood house. Finally when
the Neighborhood House association
took possession of its present building
the civic league realized that the new
home was commodious enough for all

mites offered both by the association
and the league The reading room was

A social settlement demands for it's
success cooperation. If the early eff
forts of those Jewish women who
started the industrial school over on
the West side had not met with
response from the people for whom
the school was opened, the sewing
class, of course, could not have
evolved into the Neighborhood house
of today. But the people did respond
and it is their ready response that
makes the story of the settlement so
encouraging and interesting. They
were quick to read opportunity in the
plans that were made for them and
they entered with such spirit and with
such entire willingness into those plans
that they practically carried all Of

Coal that is kept in a dry and airy place
will burn much longer than that which is
kept in Il close cellar with no ventilation.
When coal is stored in an airless place it
gets rid of its gas, and the absence of this
renders it less powerful and more wasteful
when burned
Dry sand will extinguish burning oil, and
where lamps are used pailful of sand
should always be in readiness in case of
accident. Water is useless, for it only
spreads the flames.
An excellent dishcloth is made of COM
mon string, knitted on bone needles. Dish
cloths made thus are strong, and their
roughness makes them especially useful for
cleaning pots and pans. They should be
washed out daily with soap and water,
and boiled once a week in soda water to
keep them sweet.
Lamps should be reflled with oil fre-
quently, for if the oil is left in the reser-
voir for any length of time it becomes stale,
and has an unpleasant odor when lighted.
The burner of a lamp should be taken out
occasionally, and boiled in strong soda water
to remove any little bits of wick that may
have become clogged in it.
Electric bells-If the electric bell will
not ring, it probably is because moisture is
needed. Shake up the electric jars, and
and if that does not work cure, put more
water into them
Skim milk is excellent for washing tiles
1t gives far better appearance than does
hot water.
A small piece of charcoal put in the
water in which vegetables are boiled pre-
vents the disagreeable smell which usually
accompanies the cooking of vegetables.
Or if lump of fresh charcoal is placed in
wardrobe, it will prevent the unpleasant
smell which clothes, especially woolen goods
have when they are stored away.
To brighten the inside of coffee or
tea pot, fill with water, add a small piece
of soda, and let it boil about forty-fve
minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
When knife blades come out of their
handles, they may be easily mended by
filling in the handles with powdered resin,
and replacing the blade, after making its
shaft red hot in the fire. When cold, the
blade will be found to be firmly fixed.

A Word to
Nursing
Mothers

1t is a well known clinical fact
that babies who depend wholly on
mothers milk never have cholera,
and are exempt from two-thirds
the ailments which aff1ict infants.
Some inkling to this has checked
the resort to artificial foods and
begun to make it "good form for
every mother to nurse her own
baby - when she can.
Some try it, and grow weak and
sick under the strain. With
others the milk flow is insufficient,
and the poor baby is at last given
over to the tender mercies of the
milkman with his corn fodder, and
stale slops, and worse.
If any mother within ten miles
of our store reads this, we want to
give them a hint. Try Vinol.
There are many mothers who have
found that it enabled them to take
more nourishment, restored their
strength, and made baby healthy,
hearty, and happy.
Vinol not only supports the
mothers strength but transmits
to the babe the foundation for a
healthy childhood.
Vinol contains no dangerous
drugs. We are willing to tell you
just what is in it and give you the
money back if it don't help you.
Don't doubt, try ii.
