'If you please, sir, Sister Margaret
wishes to use our telephone, sir. ST.

l spoke to the sister as she left the
house, half as matter of courtesy
| half to make sure Of her. The tele
phone at ST. Agatha's had been out OF

walked with her to st. Agatha's gate

the Holbrook ladies, who were, she

The chapel clock chimed nine as

Meanwhile his mistress, the widow

The Sickroom Buubear.

The great nugbear of the sickroom
is monotony. This is the problem that
every nurse must meet and study
ways and means to prevent. She may
do this in several ways. She may
alter the appearance of the room oc-
casionally by pushing the bed or sofa
to different part of the room in or
der to give the patient fresh out
look; the cut flowers may be replaced
by growing plant; old magazines and
books may be removed and new ones
take their place; the pictures may be
changed, especially those that hang at
the foot of the bed, or perhaps, q
blank wall may be found to be restful
to the tired eyes.-Circle Magazine.
