Food for the Sick.

There is no branch of the culinary
art which requires more skill than
that of preparing food for the sick
and feeble. The purpose of food at
all times is to supply material for re-
pairing the waste which is constant.
ly going on in the vital economy; and
hence it ought always to be chosen
with reference to it's nutritive value.
But during illness and convalescence,
when the waste is often much great
er and the vital powers less active, it
is of the utmost Importance that the
food should be of such character as
will supply the proper nutrition. Nor
is this all; an article of food may
contain all the elements of nutrition
in such proportions as to render it a
wholesome food for those in health,
and not be proper food for the sick,
for the reason that it's conversion into
blood and tissue lays too great tax
upon the digestive organs. Food for
the sick should be palatable, nutri-
tious and easily assimilated. To dis
criminate as to what food will supply
these requisites, one must possess
ooHiS hAoWicuSe VI uieIeLlCS ana pQyS-
iology, as well as Of the nature of the
illness with which the patient is suf-
fering; and such knowledge ought
to be part of the education of every
woman, no matter to what class of so
ciety she belongs.
Hot buttered toast, tea, rich jellies
and other dainties so commonly
served to the sick, are usually the
very worst articles of diet which they
could partake. AS rule, elaborate
dishes are not suitable.
Scrupulous neatness and care in all
the minute particulars of the cooking
and serving of food for invalids will
add much to its palatableness. The
clean napkin on the tray. the bright
silver and dainty china plate. with
perhaps a sprig Of leaves and flow
ers beside it. thinly sliced bread, toast
or crackers and the light cup partly
filled with hot cruel, are far more ap-
petizing to the invalid than coarse
ware, thickly cut bread and an over
flowing cup Of cruel. though the cook
ing may be just as perfect. So far as
practicable. the wants of the patient
should be anticipated, and the meal
served, surprise.

DUTIES OF THE CITIZEN
How Great Progress Can Be MAde in tho Constant Eight
Tuberculosis.

DR.. s. A. Knopf in an address
briefly and clearly outlines the duty
Of each citizen in combating tubercu-
losis:
If you are in the presence Of a con-
sumptive who Is not yet under medi-
cal care, teach him what you know of
the prevention of the disease and ad-
wise him to seek the counsel of COM
petent physician. If he is too poor to
to ask it for nothing, tell him to ap-
ply to the health department, which
will send one of its physicians with
out cost. No tuberculosis invalid, no
matter in what stage of the disease,
whether living in palace or in the
poorest tenement house, should be
without a medical adviser. If you
meet consumptive who is ignorant
Of the precaution he should take, do
not shun him like leper, but treat
him with kindness, and convince him
that whatever he does to prevent the
spread of the disease among others
will also improve his own condition
and increase the chances of his re-
covery. Let me tell you that a clean.
conscientious consumptive is as safe
person to associate with as any
body. If in your daily life you can
influence others to make themselves
familiar with the necessary knowl-
edge of the prevention Of tubercu-
losis. do so! If through your influ-
ence, your words, and example you
can combat the fearful curse of our
alcoholism beseech you, dc
your duty.
Some individuals have, by virtue OF
their calling, a special duty to per
form in the combat of tuberculosis
OF these l mention, first, the teachers
of the public schools, the clergymen
the editors of the public press, EN-
ployers and philanthropists.

Breed, Wis, June 26.-Special-
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co., has delivered a judg-
ment that is Of interest to the whole
United States. Put briefly. that judg-
ment is. "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best Kidney medicine on the market
today"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter 1 had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
In the morning could hardly straight

was but an advertisement led me to

other deadly forms Of Kidney Disease.

Disinfectiou,

The disinfection of clothing is a
matter which every one should un-
derstand. Ordinary boiling will de-
stroy all sorts of dangerous germs.
The boiling should be continued half
an hour. Clothing which cannot be
boiled should be burned or disinfected
by sulphur or formalin.
Rooms must be disinfected by the
last-named means and by thorough
scrubbing with strong. hot soapsuds.
Open doors and windows as widely
as possible so as to allow the admis-
sion Of the largest possible amount of
light and the freest circulation of air.
Remove the old paper from the
walls with strong soapsuds, and then
apply whitewash to the ceiling.
Cleanse the woodwork with a solution
of fresh chloride of lime, one pound
to the gallon.
Remove the carpet from the floor.
the bedding from the bed, and every
other fabric from the room, and thor
oughly disinfect them before replac-
ing.
Ordinary scrubbing, whitewashing
and ventilation are useful and neces-
sary, but are not sufficient Disin-
fection is required. One of the most
convenient and effective means of dis
infection is fumigation by the burning
of common sulphur. The following is
the best method of doing this:
Into tub or large dishpan pour
Uvo fnr fn nf n In
in the vessel two bricks laid flatwise
and near together. Set upon the
bricks an old iron kettle. Put into
the kettle proper quantity of flour
of sulphur mixed with an equal guam
tity Of pounded charcoal. The amount
required Is four pounds for each one
thousand cubic feet of air. Mix with
the sulphur and charcoal few pieces
of newspaper. Before the sulphur is
lighted, all clothing and other articles
in the room should be so disposed OF
as to allow the fumes of the sulphur
to come in contact with them to the
fullest extent. The efficiency of the
fumigation is also very greatly in
creased by saturating the walls. and
everything the room contains. with
steam. This may be very readily
done by boiling water vigorously upon
n stove in the room for an hour or two
previous to lighting the sulphur. Dry
sulphur fumes will destroy growing
germs. but not the dried spores which
may be collected upon walls and in
cracks and corners. When all is In
readiness. light the sulphur, and leave
the room as soon as 1t Is evident that
II is going to burn we'll II the door
OF the room communicates with other
rooms, the crack around the door
must be tightly closed by pasting
thick paper over 1t. The room must
be kept closed for twentyfour hours,
at the end OF which time It should be
opened. and left to air for another
twenty-four hours. when 1t NAL be
considered thoroughly disinfected.

Early Days In Colorado.

A recent Denver Republican special
from Trinidad says: The Twenty
third infantry. U. s. A., numbering
about 450 men and thirty-nine officers.
passed through Trinidad going east
this morning over the Santa Fe, direct
from the Philippines. The regiment
was stationed on the island of Min
danao. and is bound for Fort Madison,
New York, in command Of Col. Philip
Read.
Colonel Read entertained several
friends with a story of his early travels
through this section. He stated that
he marched over this entire western
country forty years ago. that he built
the first telegraph line which had its
beginning at Santa Fe and erded at
Los Angeles, and had marched from
Trinidad to the Pacific coast. He also
! told story of General Frank D. Bald
win, who was until few weeks ago
the commander Of the Department Of
the Colorado. He said that in the year
1868, when the general was Lieutenant
Baldwin of the Fifth infantry, he was
in charge of $50 recruits marching
from Fort Harker, Kansas, to a fort
near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Mrs.
Baldwin accompanied her husband on
the trip.
The line of march was over the old
Santa Fe trail across Ration pass. The
ranch of uncle" Dick Wooton was sit
uated on top Of the mountain under
which the big tunnel Of the Santa Fe
now runs. Mrs. Baldwin became III
and was taken to the Wooton ranch
where a baby girl was born to her
which was named by Mrs. Wooton
| Juanita. The girl is now married to 9
lieuteuant in the army.
