A Bishops Story.
The late Bishop Fitzgerald once pre-
sided at the graduation exercises Of a
class of nurses. He told the young
women a story.
He said that during u war with
Spain a certain hospital had a corps of
nurses of exceptional beauty-just such
a corps, in fact, as the young ladies
ranged before him would have made.
But 1t was whispered that these fair
nurses were inclined to a little frivol-
ity, inclined a little to f1irt with the
ailing young soldiers in their charge.
Now, when a soldier felt that he was
on the mend n Irritation with a pretty
nurse was delightful, but when his
wounds We're troublesome then gal
lantry was n thing that he was hardly
up to-.
And indeed 1t was said that some
times a pretty nurse in this hospital
would come to n favorite soldier and
find him lying with closed eyes, as if
asleep. and this note pinned on the
counterpart:
Too i'll to be nursed today.
