Free TRIMMING OF Nurses.

An excellent work has been under
taken by the Philadelphia School For
Nurses, which is providing free train
ing in nursing, for a number of young
women in every county in Pennsyl-
vania.
The young women will be provided
with room, board, uniforms, and all
the conveniences of well-appointed
Christian home. The course is two
years of training, I'm nursing the sick
poor of the city, under skilled leaders.
In addition to regular nursing, the
young women are taught how to pre-
serve their own health; how to recog-
nize, avoid, and destroy contagiOn;
and how to establish and maintain
perfect sanitary conditions about the
home.

So they separated, and the doctor
went to his room to study. But his
mind was not content with books. II
dwelt upon Amy, as she appeared but
a short time before. 1t occurred to him
that he had thought of her many times
in the past few weeks. But then it was
purely professional-their common in
terest in the medical aspect of their
work. She was very competent nurse
and very attractive. Her eyes and
her mouth and that little wisp of hair
that always curled over her ear stood
before him. But pshaw. it meant moth

science, deceiving himself and saying
it was not so, when, in some deeper

SO he ran away and finally graduated

He was doubter. Even Santa Claus,

But when she told him how Santa

lang! Down the broad, brilliantly
lighted avenue swept a heavy fire
{ruck, its five dappled horses united
IN mad gallop. Ten-year-old Teddy
DNeill, Western Union messenger
BOY, cut suddenly into the avenue
rom side street and circled on his
wheel like an eagle. His eyes fol-
lowed the truck with longing. 1t was
a struggle 'twixt duty and pleasure.
Then an engine dashed into sight. 1t
was drawn by three magnificent
blacks, and in the darkness it cleaned
like demon, splitting fire and smoke
Ieddy gave howl of enthusiasm and
followed in its wake.
For block after block he trailed the
wheel OF the engine, bending low over
MS handle bars. Something of the
Spirit of the fire-fghters of old was in
this blood, and though his little heart
was pounding with sudden stress he
held the pace, his short legs dancing
mechanically with the pedals.
At the cross street a trolley ,car
blocked the way. A collision seemed
,inevitable. The driver rose in his
seat, jammed the brake down, and
drew with all his strength on the
lines. The blacks came down on their
'haunches and with stiffened forelegs
slid on the smooth pavement. Just
in time the heavy engine came to
stop.
But Teddy, pedaling as though for
record, with his eyes to the ground,
knew not of the obstruction.
Suddenly the shining engine loomed
before him. He threw up his arms
and with a little cry dashed into the
heavy steel-shoa- wheels.
A crowd gathered quickly. Gentle
hands bore the limp and mangled body
to a nearby hospital.
When Teddy awoke he lay in a white
iron bed, in a long room, with many
other beds on each side of him. He
tried hard to remember. What did it
all mean? And what made the pain
In his head, his chest, his legs? He
gave little groan.
A woman came to the bed and
leaned over him. Years afterward he
The Breckenridge news., 1905-12-20

recalled that vision-the sweet, serious
face, the white uniform, the pretty cap
resting on waves of brown hair. She
smothed his hot brow and gave him
cool water. Then delirium seized him,
and for weeks he hovered between life
and death, while Amy Norton, the head
nurse. watched him as though he were
her very own.
In those endless days and nights of
physical anguish, when he could COM
prehend only two conditions-pain and
the absence of pain-Amy seemed to
him a brooding Spirit of Deliverance.
Always there, when he needed her,
divining the cause of his discomfort
and quick with measures OF relief, she
became in the highest sense a mother
to this mctherless waif.
So the days passed, and gradually
Teddy responded to the care of nurse
and doctor and awoke to conscious
ness of things about him. His twisted
arm was almost restored to use; his
crushed leg, though in heavy plaster
cast, was mending rapidly; but he
complained of pain in his chest, where
the engine wheels had broken the
ribs. It hurt him to breathe, he said.
Now and then a spell of coughing
shook his little frame and left him
painting for breath. Then, recovering,
he would watch Amy at her work, his
eyes following her up and down the
room. He was disinclined to eat, and
d1ily his face became whittier and thin
Snei. and his eyes bigger and blacker.
IL was DR.. Stones custom to meet
Amy in the operating room several
times a week for consultation. One
evening they talked of Teddy. the
doctor shook his head gravely. he
was a handsome, young man, with
close-cut, dark beard. In their common
purpose-the rescue Of this dying Or
phan child-their hearts beat together.
Can you not stimulate him some

little complications fever, even
cold-might end it all. He is too pas

be merely awaiting the end. We can
not get results under such conditions
1t is not now case for medicine. There
is nothing in all the pharmacopoela
that I can think of to awaken him.
For some minutes they sat in silence.
All the mother love in Amy's heart
was stirred Poor little waif-no par
