THE FIRE ENGINE DRIVER.
None Who Handles the "Ribbons''
Knows Better How It Should
Be Done Than He.

Is there better driver in the world
than the man who drives the fire en-
CINE? II there is, he is yet to be dis
covered, says the New York Sun.
~ Here was an engine coming along a
cross street, to turn up an intersecting
avenue. Under the edge of the round
ed OFF corner that the machine was to
turn there was sewer opening, with
the street pavement sloping down
smoothly toward 1t all around from the
higher lsvel OF the street
II the driver, coming as he was at
dead gallop, should make broad turn
around this corner, out where the
street was level, the engine would
swing more or less, nothing could pre-
vent that, and check the horses speed,
and there would be q second or two
lost before they could get the load
Strengthened again and get under full
Roadway with It, once more, up the
avenue, But II the driver could make
that corner with the two wheels on the
inner side Of the curve down dn that
sloping depression leading to the sewer
opening close by the curb and the two
outside wheels on the higher level
nearer the middle OF the street, why.
the higher level here would be for the
engine what the banked up outer rail
II for the locomotive rounding a curve
and making 1t SO he wouldn't lose an
inch. And that's the way he did
make it.
| And before we knew 1t man who
had been standing at the edge Of this
corner waiting to see the engine go
by saw 1t SO 1ear to him and leaning
in 30 close to him that he could have
touched 1t, while the driver, aloft on
his high seat and leaning inward as
h1 was, too, was actually leaning over
him as the engine passed, with whistle
screaming and steam kissing, and that
driver, as he flung 'em in this fashion
round this curve, talking low to his
horses and calling on 'em each by
name-a man absorbed IL there ever
was one.
Thinking Of nothing else in the
world, that driver, at this minute but
getting to the fire. The allied powers
might threaten Turkey, Russia might
burst at any moment into revolution,
1t might not yet be settled whether 1t
should be the Straits of Panama or a
lock canal-all such questions had no
interest for him now, nor was he in
terested in anything else; what abb
sorbed him now to the exclusion of
all else on earth was the hiking of the
old machine from the fire house to box
4-11-44 in the shortest possible time,
and hadn't he just saved two seconds
by the fine work he had done in round
ing this corner? And when-it seemed
but an instant later that you heard it
lyon heard the scream Of the engine,
now far up the avenue, You knew he
was getting there. 1t was great,

She does not start off, like the FASH
ionable doctor, with cab and coachman,
but on foot makes her wearisome
rounds. And she is not able, to the de-
gree the doctor is, to keep to her pro-
gramme. Things interrupt. Perhaps
at the first place visited she finds the
patient suffering from typhoid pneu-
MONA, in urgent need of hospital care.
First she must persuade patient and
family that the hospital is not the
dreaded place of their imagination;
thea she must go to telephone and
find hospital that will take her pa
tient, perhaps she will have to try one
afte. another. Then doctor must be
found who will give her permit that
will allow calling the police ambu-
lance. Then the patient must be pre-.
pared for her journey. II there are
children-and there almost always are
these must be provided for. She gets
her woman of to the hospital, puts the
little charges in the Home for the
Friendless, then starts out for the rest
of the cases on her list.
| One can readily see it takes many
sided woman to be successful visit
ing nurse; first she must have the
training and skill for the professional
part of the work; she must be diplo-
mat IL her dealings with her difficult
subjects; she must have the strength
and patience of an OK. One should
make low obeisance to visiting
nurse whenever she crosses ones path
Here is case that came under my
personal observation: A family of nine
father half sick and wholly lazy, moth
er big and strong and given to the bot

sick with pneumonia; furniture seizet

fooFj the only covering for patient ant
others, soiled old clothes. The dali.

able TO get along all right until rainy
day comes in the form of sickness and
Doctors bills and medicines and need
of tbs attention of skilled nurse.
Perhaps the work with the latter is Of
special worth, 1t is not so hopeless as
the other; here are people intelligent
AMI willing to learn of sanitation and
improved hygiene, and people willing
to help. Among the very poor 1t some
times proves most difficult task for
the visiting nurse to meet her respon-
sibilities, some parents so Indifferent
to their children's good, unwilling that
the little Wage-earner give up work
and wages. But a recent action of
Judge Mack's (judge of the Juvenile
COURT making each visiting nurse a
probation officer, solves this problem;
now the nurse has right to force her
way into home, she in way is
guardian to the suffering child, may
compel the parents to let CRIPPLED
child rest until sufficiently recovered
/ from surgical operation to go to
work.
The city is divided into districts, the
nurse Of the district has place of call,
usually at a corner drug store. In case
of emergency she is at once commune
Gated with, enabled to get to the pa
tient with least delay. Some cities,
notably Boston and Denver, recognize
the need of public nurses and make
provision for their services. Chicago,
with its 100000 people, does nothing
of this sort. It offers nothing to the
needy sick except the poorhouse. It
leaves everything in this line to be
done by individual philanthropic eff
fort. Yet its courts, its police and all
its public officers recognize the visiting
nurses as public officials. They are as
much at the beck and call of the pub
lie as the police or the fire depart
ment."

seem what you are, you will do well
to be what you should.
This improvement must take place
In the future purchases of goods. For
example, the buyer should settle In
her mind what shall he the dominant
color of a certain room and what con-
t-asting color If any, should be added
as subordinate. Advice from an ar
chitect or artist Is invaluable at this
initial stage of progress, for the trade
decorator is unframed in principle and
almost as likely to miss as to hit 8
proper scheme.
The starting point must always be
the color of the wood finish to the
room, and this at present in America
is usually the orange-yellow that oak
takes best On this account AIRED wall
paper is excluded, since red and all
varieties of orange reduce each other
to a deadly dullness. Yet the person,
unframed in art, very naturally selects
red as the color for one of the rooms
Of the house, and it Is general fa-
vorite for halls, no consideration being
given to unity OF color effect.
This IL not small matter to consid-
or. but is rather the chief matter; for
| what Is not beautiful on the whole, In
It's ensemble, must BE- accounted a
failure, nearly everything that exists
attaining to beauty in spots. The CO.
ordinate factors in all beauty are va
riety. and unity, or rather variety
| everywhere dominated by unity.
To bear this art principle in mind
will enable one to purchase goods for
beauty as well as for use. and will
thereby increase the Joy of living as
probably no other single practice can
do; for art Is expressly for delight,
1t is the wine of life.
The detailed application of this sole
| principle of art to its various ele-
nlents-already twice mentioned-of
