A more fearless explorer, male Or fe-
male, than Miss Mary Kingsley. niece
of Canon Kingsley, has probably never
lived. She perfectly reveled in explor-
ing countries in which no European
had ever set foot and instead Of avoid
ing danger seemed actually to court It.
Every one thought her mad when she
started on her journey Of exploration in
the elephant and gorilla countries of
South Africa, and with an escort of
treacherous natives. In the rapids of
N'oiole her canoe was upset three times
and each time she narrowly escaped
death by clinging to rock until she
was rescued. On one occasion She
faced alone a fierce and enormous
gorilla. while her cowardly escorts took
to their heels. and later she passed
some weeks among the cannibals in the
Rembwe country, making friends of
natives whose larders were stocked
with human joints. '.In this country
Miss Kingsley wrote, 1.-THE dead are cut
up and kept in larders, precisely a
civilized people keep their fresh meat.
The bones are scattered about the
country, which is difficult of locomo-
ton on account of the vast numbers of
concealed men traps"

A romance of the Victorian era is
recalled by the death of the march,

marquis Of Anglesey. the son of the

nous for her beauty and was known
as the Pocket Venus" She was be-
trothed in 1864 to Henry Chaplin, but
leaving her carriage at Regent street
shop one day she emerged by back
door and eloped with the marquis of
Hastings. He died four years later.
after the Derby success of Hermit, an
| ''outsider," at 66 to 1, had ruined him
and brought a fortune of 100000 to
Mr.. Chaplin. Two years afterward

Chetwynd. and it was curious that Of
her family of a son and two daughters

whose death in 1905 the title reverted to

There was thus supplied the instance of

essential is ann ability on the part OF
the nurse to adapt herself to whatever
conditions she may find. Those Of US
who are not successful seem to lack
this quality. Then. in addition to this
the nurse needs q certain self-control,
which enables her, to recognize what
is due to herself ana what is due to the
family and patient. She must have
sufficient strength, OF character to
make herself and her work respected"
In speaking Of the amount Of money
earned by nurse, Miss Reed had ref
erence to the nurse. who attends pri-
vate cases. Some nurses prefer in
stitutional work, either as instructors
and teachers in training schools or as
working nurses in hospitals. Here diff
ferent conditions obtain, and the money
return is q fixed amount the year
through. The nurse who takes private
cases can take a rest or a vacation
when she may choose. The institr-
tioral nurse is expected to give Ger
tain hours each day throughout the
year, and is given only a limited vaca-
ton, which is at the pleasure Of her
superiors. Women who act as ma
irons Of hospitals are paid salaries from
3OUU 10 $lJUU d year ana are ScnCIduy
given a months vacation. The matrOn
of cottage hospital is hard working
woman. She is often called upon at all
hours and her rest is likely to be much
broken. More direct responsibility
falls on her than on the woman who
is head of large institution. Under
| nurses in hospitals, who have charge
of wards are paid $50 or s35 month.
