 | The second of the series of talks on | nursing in the home which are being l given by Dr. Dita H. Kinney, who is at the head of the bureau of army nursing, attracted a large audience to Cable hall I yesterday morning. The series is the most helpful and instructive that have been given in this city and no woman | should fail to hear them. 1 Mrs. Kinney is delightful speaker. | She is practical, clear in her statement and analyses, and she goes right to the heart of her subjects, not the theory of 1 nursing but its practical side. None but 1, woman of broadest education and un- | usual experience in her chosen profes- l sion could bring out the essence of good nursing as she does. Women entirely l ignorant of the subject could not fail to comprehend the truths of Mrs. Kin
 neys talks, and those who already pro- fess to know the ethics of the sick room found the talks stimulating, educative and helpful.
 The subject for this mornings lecture will be sick children, with notes on pulse and temperature.
