EVERY MOTHER SHOULD
 BE A STRAINED NURSE''
BY MARY ANNAsLE .FAflToN.

clean without hurting anything. And
 after much hunting and frequent ques-
 tions she has discovered that the one thing that will make water soft without injury, in fact with general benefit, is borax
 Borax will not only clean nicely but acts as a germicide and insecticide as well. Physicians and trained nurses rec ognize it as one of the most harmless and simplest purifiers known.
 Is Also Disinfecting. So that while the wise modern woman Is getting. her nursery clean with soft water that takes but little time and en- ergy, she is at the same time disinfeeting the room and destroying all possibility of germ life thus creating am atmos- phere that is perfectly antiseptic and, of course, much sweeter than could be found in the ideal baby hospital ward
 It is easy to see in this instance. at least, now that knowing q few things smpifies life, by giving the baby a bet ter chance for, health. in saving the mothers time by giving an increased measure of comfort with a decreased amount of labor
 A teaspoonful of borax 70 gallon of water istan excellent proportion for soft ening water and accomplishing good work insthe way of germ destruction. Water containing this amount of borax can be used on light or dark wood work, on highly polished furniture, on hard wood floors. for washing the baby s clothes, for disinfecting all s'nursery cooking utensils and for an occasional rinsing out of the baby's bath tub and commode with perfect safety and good results. If there is any sort of plumbing
 in the nursery this same solution of borax water should be poured through ...s.. It is an excellent notion of the modern
 mother to keep the nursery very simple, outfitting it with only washable furni- ture hard finished wood floor, washable. blue and white. Japanese Jute rugs and chairs of white ename1eG Iron. The
 wood-w is white enamel. the curtains | are white lawn and the wall rough plas- ter painted cream white with a frieze of delft blue figures.
 | If there is no nurse, any mother can keep such place as this perfectly clean | by giving it half an hour every morning | with a full half a day every week. And | there is no harm that baby or young child can do in a nursery like this a lit- l tie warm water and borax will not reme- | dy easily.
 l The woman who is looking out for the | perfect cleanliness of her nursery who makes sure that all furniture, clothes and dishes are antiseptically washed, that the babys clothes are antiseptically laun- dered, that there is nothing in the nurse ry, including the baby, that cannot be washed regularly and frequently in warm water-softened with borax, fs really doing what trained nurse would do She Is
 working intelligently and saving her time and energy and is thus making her house
 more healthful and more attractive than the untrained woman would do with twice the work.

In Ante-ReIIum Days.
om the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 Tn the old days. when tho capital of Alabama was located at Tuscaloosa, there was a good deal of open gambling at that seat of 1egisiation,' said Mir. D. M Lowrey of New Orleans. at the Riggs house. "Itwas tho custom in those times for men of all grades of society to risk their money at games of chance, and the lawmakers who gathered at Tusca- loosa were among tho best patrons of the gaming tables.
 The proprietor of one of those resorts, wishing to keep the state solons separ- ated from the ordinary customers of his place. put up big sign In the apartment devoted to faro. poker, roulette, and the like, which read:
 Members of the legislature please take the table to the right: gamblers take the table to the left-its hard to tell you apart.'"

It sounds terribly advanced to suggest that every mother should be a trained nurse. And it really might discourage matrimony if every girl thought that she had to precede her honeymoon with a wearisome four years course at hos pital.
 But what is really men, by this ex- pression of 'trained nurse'' is not a>hos pital diploma, but merely certain care full home training in the essential work of the nursery which will make the care of children both in health and sickness a much easier task than when under taken with ignorance, however much the Ignorance might be coupled with love and duty.
 Of course the more affection and more devotion in the nursery the better, but these two qualities at their best connot accomplish without knowieGge what can be done with intelligent training.
 don't know why it is that the ex- pression '.doing thing intelligently' always suggests a great deal of effort and time, while the truth is that the minute you know how to do a thing well you begin to save time and strength.
 It is not remedying evil, but preventing evil, that makes life more comfortable and more enjoyable And although there may be at times unavoidable sickness in the nursery the mother with training can unquestonably save her babies great many illnesses and herself endless exhaustion If she knows how to keep the nursery wholesome. attractive place and how to do 1t easily and pleas antly.
 Cleanliness Prevents Sickness.
 Of course in the nursery, as in the kitchen, the greatest preventive of sick ness Is scrupulous cleanliness. This does not mean merely the tidy sweeping and dusting which keeps room attractive and which. of course, every mother does 1nstinctively and gladly, but the sort of cleaning that disinfects, the cleaning that routs the proud germ. that is the un- doing Of the self-satisfed insect and that makes the air of a city room as sweet to breathe as that of a log cabin in the mountains.
 Now, it Is part of the training of the modern mother to find out a way to do all these things easily as well as thor oughly. and if she lives in the city away from wells and cisterns her first diffi- culty in every sort of cfean-ng is hard water. If she actually asrempts to get things clean with hard water she uses nm her time and her strength so completely that she is soon worn out and discour- aged.
 There are various ways of softeninp water ammonia will do II and so will different patent cleaning fiuios. but with out exception they are injurious to wood work and ruinous to hands. And it is not demanded that any woman sacrifice all her time beauty and youth for house. hould work. It is training that puts in the hands of the modern mother a reas- onable solution for almost every domestic problem. And if hard wnrer and am- monia hurt the hands and cleaning fluids hurt the furniture then the trained wo- v-an hunts about for something that will
