says: "The vote selling habit is OF

Berlin is at its best at night. 1t
has discovered the secret Of electric
lighting, and when people step out
from their offices and shops at 8 and 9
o'clock at night it is into an enchanted
city. The solid palaces, the monstrous
statues, the enormous houses and wide
spaces of the long and stately streets
are then soft and gracious with fairy
radiance 1t is a city not only of pros
perity, but Of pure delight. The heav-
mess of the buildings and the rightly
of their lines are blurred and softened.
In this clear northern air the million
lamps blazing from the walls of houses,
shining across the interminable streets
and glowing in a straight line down
the whispering avenues, have some
thing Of the magic gentleness and sen
suous inspiration of an Arabian story.
You begin to think Berlin is the great

THE Swat braves went to Windsor
and had an audience Of her majesty
Queen Victoria. They were very gra-
ciously received. One of their number
began to speak, and an interpreter fol-
lowed him phrase by phrase. We come,
0 great mother lie said, to bring to
you our babe. Take him, o mother. to
thy knees; fold him to thy breast Here
the queen, half frightened, exclaimed:
But where is the child? l don't see
him. Where is hep Here, o mother
said the Swat gravely, at the same
time bringing forward a big black
about six feet high and weighing we'll
over 200 pounds. He is here"

Sibley Not After GovcrnOrship.

In an interview sent out from Wash

Congressman, Hon. Joseph G. Sibley,
takes himself out of the race for Guber-
Material honors, and declares himself for
Justice John p. Eikin as first choice, and
State Chairman Wesley r. Andrews for
second choice. Mr.. Sibley said: 81 am
not candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for Governor next year and will
not be candidate for the nomination.
Furthermore, my first choice for the
nomination is John p Elkin, of Indiana
county, and my second choice is Chair
man Wesley X. Andrews, of the State

He also gave it as his opinion that Mr..
Elkiu would have been nominated three
years ago but for that unfortunate fight
among the Republicans of Pittsburg and
Allegheny county, which made his NOM
ination inadvisabe. But" he continued,
"if he wishes the nomination next year l
will be for him. My second choice, and
really my personal choice, is Andrews.

Governor, while the northwestern section
of the State would roll up large majority
for him. He IL splendid fellow and

AMERICAN NURSES lately returned
from Japan state that the methods EN-
ployed by the native Japanese nurses are
very similar to those of other countries,
except that "they pay more attention to
the whims of their patients" Doubtless
they do, and the percentage OF recovery
among their PATIENTS is much higher than
Is the rule in this country. 1t used to bs
thought that one of the requirements OF
the ideal nurse was the ability and will
lngness TO humor these whims, and
there are many people who still hold this
idea. The nurses Of to-day are altogether
too prone to fit every patient to the Pro-
crusteau bed of arbitrary formulas and
ironclad rules. If the fit be not easily
made, so much the worse for the patient.
What does he know of scientific nursing,
anyhow? How ridiculous to consider
his whims or imagine that lie knows
what he wants! The sacred formulae,
like the laws of Medes and Persians,
must not be altered. For thousands of
years the outraged nature of fever pa
tients called for water. 1t was only a
whim, and as such was to be disregarded.
Some daring innovator INDUCED the
whim one day and revolutionized the
treatment Of fever. The Japanese are so
uncivilized and behind The times that
they are forced to rely on nature. How
inexplicable it must seem to the oppo-
nents of their whimsical notions that so
many of the japanese patients recover !

AS A matter of course the Governor of
Illinois declined to accede to the call of
the business men of Chicago for troops to
suppress the strike troubles. There is a
widespread supposition that all that is
necessary to get troops in such cases is
merely for few citizens to make fran
tic appeal to the Governor. The law con-
templates that each community shall
maintain its own peace and that there
shall not be outside help until the local
authority has found The job too large for
its resources. The Sheriff in such emer-
gencies can and must secure deputies
from among the body of the people and
exert every possible power to maintain
order. If he then fails be can appeal TO
the Governor for assistance. If it were
the practice to order out troops at every
body's demand we should soon become
quite military in our ways.
