lions.
1t was In the terrible winter of 1854,
when Bull Rum Russell, the famous
war correspondent gave graphic de-
scription of the awful sufferings Of the
soldiers in the Crimea during the fight
with Russia. A cry Of horror went up
from England because of the almost
total lack Of medical aid given the men
wounded or brought down by disease
and exposure.
In this disastrous campaign the
British forces lost 90 1872 men. OF which
only 1856 were killed in battle. The
French troops lost $4,000 men and the
Turks more than $4,000 soldiers.
Funds were soon Forthcoming for
hospital supplies, and Miss Nightin-
gnA offered her services to act as n
nurse. Her letter was crossed by one
from Sidney Herbert, then secretary
OF war, urging her to take charge of
the entire nursing arrangements. She
accepteu the position without pay, and
It was because of her able management
that the grateful soldiers gayerher the
name of "angel of the Crlmea. and.
"angel of the battlefield"
She placed the great hospital on the
heights of Scutari, near Constantine
pie, on a basis of efficiency as nearly
perfect as possible when the crude
methods Of those days are taken into
consideration. She had thirty-four
nurses with her and her faithful band
saved many lives.
The name of Florence Nightingale
became household word, not only
where the English language was spo.
Ken, but throughout the civilized world.
Her work In the Crimea led to the
calling of congress which paved the.
way for better methods of nursing
When the civil war in the United
States broke out Miss Nightingale gave
her advice on camp nursing and camp
sanitation, and the United States sani-

was the fruit Of her laborA And this
finally led to the formation Of the
famous Red Cross Society, which does
splendid work, not only on the battle
field, but also in times Of disaster BY
flood, fire and earthquake.
Miss Nightingale is living retired
life at her London home, owing to her
delicate health. She is wealthy WON

An English clergyman, DR.. Frederick
Lee, had a prejudice against long
string of Christian names, and held
that II such names were proposed the
clergyman should alter them at bap-
tism, whether the parents were willing,
or not. 1t was said of him that he
christened all the boys Frederick after
himself, and all the girls Mary after
the Virgin. The author Of THE Life
Of Walter Pater' gives Doctor Lees
method Of christening as follows:

Ai az : two years ago to
prepare designs for the contemplated
new coin issue. He searched in many
directions for face meeting with the
necessary requirements, but 1t was not
until he saw Mary Cunningham, a new
servant In his household, but lately
arrived from the north Of ireland, that
he decided he had discovered that for
which he had been seeking.
The government officials, having faith
in Mr.. Saint Gaudens' judgment, did
not object to his selection, but since
the fact has become generally known
that an Irish lassie,s face graces our
new coin much criticism has arisen con-
corning the appropriateness and sense
of patriotism which prompted the se-
lection. Investigation discloses the fact
that among the women OF the Sioux,
Cheyenne and Grow tribes of Indians
are to-day to be found faces which
meet all the requirements of a model
for the new coins and which many be-
lleye are more typlcally American than
the features selected.
Since the sculptor's recent death and
the departure Of Miss Cunnlngham's
usefulness as a model for American
money Interest in her in the Saint
Gaudens family has waned, and quite
recently she was notified that her serv-
Ices were no longer required. Then
she went to Boston in the hope Of se-
curing work as waitress.

Ehe Name of Florence Nightingale,
Known Everywhere.
Florence Nightingale, who has re-
Gently been decorated by King Edward
VII. with the Order of Merit, carries
name that has brought solace and
comfort to thousands Of soldiers on
the battlefields of Europe. She was
the first woman to organize a nursing
corps for an army in action, and since
her noble and energetic work during
the Crimean war, her advice has been
sought with regard to the handling of
the wounded in battle.
She Is now 81 years old, and though
the methods she employed in the Cri-
mea have long been superseded by
modern methods, she is still known as
the angel Of the battlefield" because
she first turned the attention Of the
civilized world to the needs of the men
fighting for their country's honor.
Florence Nightingale has been desig-
mated "the queen OF nurses" because
she laid the foundation for the pres
ent elaborate system of santlseptic sur
gerry, the Ice treatment for typhoid and
camp sanitation which have enabled
many wounded soldier to escape from
death. It was Florence Nightingale
the name being charm for a soldier,
because of Its suggestion of sweet song
that relieved war of some of Its hor-
rors and paved the way for better
treatmentaof the wounded In later

The air seemed heavy with the scent

A perple1ins Bulletin.

In 1876 the late John Hay, who died
as secretary of state, and Alvey A.
Adee were serving together in the le-
CATION at Madrid. They were intense
ly interested in the outcome of the Re
publican national convention and spent
days wondering who would be nomi-
mated. One morning they found this
item in Madrid newspaper: "Rute-
bart 10. Noyes of America has been
elected president of the republic of the
north"
That was as near as the Spanish ed
itor could get to the bulletin, "Ruther-
ford B. Hayes has been nominated for
president by the Republican national
convention" and 1t took Adee and
Hay week to figure 1t out.
