Method in His friendship.

A young man who was graduated
from the College of Physicians and
Surgeons as a throat specialist began
to cultivate musical people. I don't
care a rap about music myself" he
said. but want to stand in with all
the singing teachers, so they viii send
their pupils to me for treatment Stu
dents of vocal music always are tink-
ering with their threats. Sometimes
they try to do their own doctoring.
sometimes the teacher prescribes for
them. As rule. however. the teach
er advises consulting some specialist
whom he happens to know. Consider
ing the number of aspirants to music
al fame that New York holds, it pays
to be the particular friend that stands

FOR THE HOME NURSE.
Important to Remember When Caring
for the Sick.

The first rule in nursing. the first
essential to the patient. without which
all else you do is as nothing, is to
keep the air he breathes as pure as
the external air without chilling him
Always have the window Of your
patients room open, but not a window
on passage just outside.
Place the bed in the lightest spot
in the room, and he should be able
to see out Of the window.
The best bedding is an iron bed
stead, hair mattress, no curtains OF
valance, very light blankets for a
covering, as weak patients are al
ways distressed by weight in bed
clothing.
Cleanliness OF the skin in almost all
diseases is of the utmost impor-
talce.
Care should be taken in sponging
or washing not to expose too great
a surface at once so as to check per
spiration says Woman's Life.
Never allow a patient to be walked
out of sleep, either Intentionally
or accidentally, as this does serious
harm.
Do not whisper or walk on tip-toe,
as this is peculiarly painful to the
sick.
Remember, never TO lean against,
sit upon, or shake, or even touch the
bed upon which your patient lies; this
is always annoying.
Do no talk to or allow your patient
to talk while taking his meal.

1t is thought that the old Caylloma

other considerable mines in the world.
Their altitude varies between $4,000
and 1900 feet. They were worked by
the Spaniards in the sixteenth century,
and before that, it is believed, by the

TO SAVE OLD CHURCH
PLACE WHERE WASHINGTON
RStllPPED.
Historic Meeting House Made Sacred
by Memories Of Distinguished
Americans to Be Pre-
served.


There is increasing disposition on
the part of patriotic Americans to pre-
serve historic buildings and places,
and mark them with suitable me-
mortal tablets, or turn them into mn-
seums and parks. 1t is but recently
that the body of James Wilson, one
of the signers of the Declaration OF
independence, was disinterred and
placed in the burial ground Of Christ
church. Philadelphia, under the very
shadow of the hall where the docu-
ment was signed, and now there is ac-
tive movement on foot to discover the
graves Of every one Of the signers and
to mark them with suitable tablets
Everywhere through the eastern part
of the country where the early history
of the nation was made there is a
growing tendency to discover new and
interesting places that We're inter
woven in the lives Of the early patri-
OTIS and the latest development in this
direction has been the efforts of Rev.
G, S, Somerville, of Falls Church, Va,
to obtain means to restore the historic
Falls church, of which he is rector.
This old building is one of the land
marks OF the country, and its early
history Is intimately associated with
that Of Augustine Washington George
Washington, George Mason and other
distinguished Americans. Rev Somer-
vile, because of his official connection
with the church, was familiar with its
early history and realized it's value as
one Of the histonc spots of the nation.
He became active in efforts to interest
others in preserving the building and
made a trip to Washington where he
presented the matter to the trustees
Of the American Scenic and Historic
Preservation society.
The importance of his suggestions
were instantly recognized and a rcso-
luton was passed indorsing his efforts
to obtain means to restore the build
ing to its old time condition, and un
doubtedly the money for this purpose
viii be forthcoming
