CRIMEA HEROINE 80 YEAR OLD
FLOWERS AND PLEASANT RE-
MEMBRANES FOR HER.
AS an Angel of Mercy Faced One of
the Greatest Problems That
Ever Confronted a Nurse.

LONDON.-A steady line of mes.
sengers called at little house near
Parry Lane today to leave messages
of congratulations and great boxes OF
flowers for Miss Florence Nighten-
gale, whose ninetieth birthday it
was. For more than fifteen years
Miss Nightingale has never been
able to come outside her dwelling
and of late she has been confined to
her bed most of the time. Though
her body is weak her mind is still
alert and active. She expresses her
thanks for the countless good wishes
sent her today from far and near,
and appeared especially pleased at
the felicitous messages, which came
from the king and queen.
Miss Nightengale, whom all the
world knows as THE Angel of Mer-
cy," will always be remembered as
the greatest nurse in history. When
the brilliant articles of the late Sir
William Howard Russell, the great
war correspondent fired all England
with indignation at the sufferings of
the sick and wounded soldiers in the
Crimea in 1854 she wrote the historic
note to Sidney Herbert, the minister
of war, Offering to organize and take
out a band of trained nurses to the
Crimea. With SO nurses she reache ed
Scutari on November 4, 1854. the day
before Inkerman. There she faced
the greatest problem that has ever
confronted a nurse. The wounded
were poured by shiploads into the
great barrack hospital until there
were four miles of beds, not eighteen
inches apart, filled with men as they
came from the battlefield.
The commissariat had broke down,
and there was neither proper food
nor changes of clothing, nor medical
comforts, nor hospital necessities. and
she changed all this and extended her
supervision to the other hospitals of
the east, is matter of history. She
broke through red tape, defied the
constituted authorities and gained
for herself an imperishable name in
the annals of the army. Last year
King Edward bestowed upon her the
Order of Merit, which was the first
case of a woman having been appoint
ed a member of the order.

TAFT GOOD FRIEND OF CUPID.
Will Let Man Out of Pen in Time to
Grow Hair Before His Wedding.

Grow Hair Before His Wedding.
President Taft is the good friend
of Cupid. In the federal peDitentiary
at Leavenworth, Kan, there is a bank
embezzler whose f1ve-year term would
have expired on January 8th next
The embezzler has a sweetheart who
has been waiting faithfully for him
ever since he was sent to prison. The
embezzler and the girl reached the
conclusion that they would like to
be married next Christmas. They
told President Taft about it. He de-
cided that it would be a fine idea
to make the girl a Christmas pres
ent of her convict-lover so he has
issued an order shortening the term
of the embezzler to December 8th.
That will give him time to grow a
bit of hair for the wedding.

it by the tail and gave it a jerk.
