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 1t ought always to be chosen
with reference to its 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
VIII 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 q
wholesome food for those in health,
and not be proper food for the sick,
for the reason that its conversion into
blood and tissue lays too great tax
upon the digestive organs. Food for
the sick should be palatable, nutri,
tious and easily assimiIated To dis.
criminate as to what food will supply
these requisites, one must possess
some knowledge of dietetics and phys.
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 q 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.

The Modern Slave.

While modern civilization has abol-
ished Involuntary servitude; 1t has in
troduced another form OF slavery
which is responsible for more prema-
ture deaths than ever was attributed
to the old-time human bondage. The
ancient slave was often forced to sub
sist upon miserable food, and to eat at
irregular times and IN hurried man
ner. The modern slave, or in other
words, the modern business man,
"feels" compelled to do exactly the
same thing: consequently, he expert
ences similar suffering.

Qisinfectlon.

The disinfectfon 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, and burn it. Wash the bare
walls with strong soapsuds, and then
apply whitewash to the ceiling.
Cleanse the woodwork with 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 thori

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 a tub or a large dishpan pour
water to the depth of an inch. Place
in the vessel two bricks laid fiatwise
and near together. Set upon the
bricks an old iron kettle. Put into
the kettle proper quantity of -four
of sulphur mixed with an equal guam
tity of pounded charcoal. The amount
required is four pounds for each one
thousand cubic feet fair. 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
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
a 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
1t 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 It. The room must
be kept closed for twenty-four hours.

twenty-four hours. when 1t NAL be

o. Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis. June 26.-Special--
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co., has delivered a 1udg-
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 had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much
In the morning could hardly straight
en- my back II did not know what it
was but an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking
one box'I can only say they have done
more for me than expected as feel as

Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms Of Kidney disease. II not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may
develop into Bright's Disease, Dia-
betes, rheumatism .or some of the
other deadly forms Of Kidney Disease.
