Charming Flower Gifts.

Ore of the most charming little
gifts seen in many a day are the di-
minutive but exquisite Towering
plants, each set in a decorated china
POT. The variety of flowers to be Sc
lected are numerous, such as tulips,
violets, hyacinths and lovely little rose
,rees, etc. These fascinating souven-
irs were first brought out this year,
and so great was the holiday craze
that they disappeared in a day or two.
they are little objects of the best art
work in china of extreme correctness
in flower modelling and of great beauty
of color, for that reason are fit gifts
for queen. They elicit most en-.
thusiasic admiration.-Vog

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

The first rule in nursing, the first
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 a 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, a hair mattress, no curtains or
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
lance.
Care should be taken in sponging
or washing not to expose too great
surface at once so as to check per
spiration says Womans Life.
Never allow a patient to be walked
out of a 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; thi:
is always annoying.
Do no talk to or allow your patien
to talk while taking his meal

MRS. SADIE ABBOTT

Women for the most part spend
their lives at home, and it is these
women who are willing and ambitious
that their homes shall be kept neat
and pretty, their children well dressed
and tidy, who do their own cooking,
sweeping, busting and often washing,
ironing and sewing for the entire
family, who call for our sympathy.
Truly the work of such woman
is never done" and is it any wonder
that she breaks down at the end of q
few years, the back begins to ache,
there is displacement, Inflammation
or liberation of the abdominal organs,
a female weakness is brought on, and
the struggle of that wife and mother
to continue her duties is pitiful.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, made from native roots
and herbs, is the exact medicine a
woman needs whose strength is over
taxed. 1t keeps the feminine organs
in strong and healthy condition.
In preparing for childbirth and re-
cuperating therefrom it is most eff
cient. 1t carries q woman safely
through the change of life and in
making her strong and well assists
her to be good wife and mother.
Mrs. Sadie Abbott, of Jeanette,
Pa, writes
Dear Mrs Pinkham-
IL suffered severely with pain every
month and also pain in my left side. My
doctor prescribed for me but did me no
good; friend advised Lydia f. Pinkham's

advice and am perfectly well woman The
pains have all disappeared and | cannot

Text Somewhat Apropos.

The Rev. j. b. Hammill, the elo-
quent preacher of the Hanson Place
Methodist Episcopal church, Brooklyn,
was preaching at Sayville. L. l., from
the text Look we'll to your founda-
tions." After repeating the text he
leaned heavily on the pulpit desk,
which gave way and plunged over the
altar rail, nearly hitting the laymen in
the front seat and scattering the Bible
and the preachers notes among the
holders of the pews. The aged preach
er barely escaped a tumble over the
altar with the heavy desk.

SYMPATHY FOR THE FISH.
Upton Sincla = Amazing Parable on

Upton Sinclair, in an address before

THE average charity, the charity OF
the rich, seems rather futile to me.
The rich Cypress the poor enormously

like the young lady angler.
Why said a man to this young
lady, do you always carry bottle OF

speakers at the jamestown exposition
on Labor day, and q vast throng or
people was there assembled from all
