Housekeeping Under Difficulties. =

About year ago young physician
and his wife, DIR. and Mrs. G. r. Sibley,
sailed for the Philippines to engage i'll
their profession as medical missionaries
under the American Board. She was a
trained nurse, a graduate of the Roose-
welt Hospital. He was one of the most
brilliant members of his class, espec-
tally in surgery in the New York City
Medical College. He worked his way
as machinist and alSu an engineer
while preparing for college. This va
ried experience stands him in good
stead on the island of Mindanao, where
he bids fair to be a second Grenfell in
the scope and character of his services
to the natives.
Mrs. Sibley seems to take housekeep-
ing difficulties in true pioner spirit. One
night when windstorm took off a
part of their roof she cheerfully re-
marked, I'VE didn't have to go outside
the house for rain-Water." The back
steps to their house are in native style,
just round poles instead of fiat boards,
and they have an unexpected way of
falling down, especially. when boy
