TNHE chief difference between
cooking for the sick and for
those In good health Is that the
sick person must have his food
properly prepared and the one who Is
perfectly well ought to have 1t proper
~ prepared. One Is case OF neces-
sity In order to regain health; the 9th
er is a case OF prevention to ward OF
sickness. There Is no medicine more
important and powerful than the right
kind Of food cooked and served In the
best way to make 1t easy Of digestion
and nutritious. Since this is true
there is no part OF nursing more Inn
portant than that Of preparing the In
valid's meals. Selecting and cooking
meals for one who has little appetite
mean more than choosing certain nu-
trtous foods and cooking them well.
They mean presenting the proper food
to the patient in such an attractive
way that an appetite will be awaken
ed and there will be a desire to eat.
II is essential, then, that special care
be taken in arranging the patients
tray. A sick person is unusually SEN
sitive to details. Little things which
possibly would pass unnoticed by the
person in normal health may cause ac-
tual discomfort to the one weakened
by disease. The tray should always
be covered with a clean cloth. The
smallest stain or rumpled appear
ance may take away the patients de-
sire for the food The prettiest, thin
nest china and glass, the brightest sill
yer, should he sent to the sickroom.
Tncse in themselves will appeal to the
eye and thus aid digestion.
The food should be served in small
quantities and by courses. 1t is not
unusual for the sight of tray loaded

THE CRIPPEN CASE.

J. Were we a little too eager to give
credit to the English for the speed
with which their courts act in crimi-
nal cases? Without proving that the
dead body found in the Crippen cellar
was that of his wife or even that it
was the body of woman, an English
jury, after a four days trial, deliber-
ated thirty minutes and convicted
Crippen of murder, sentencing him to
hang within a month. The higher
court denied appeal and Crippen is
now doomed to be hanged November
80. Rumors sprang up later that
Belle Elmore his actress wife whom
he said had run away with another
man, was alive in America and a
Canadian town was startled by the
belief that Belle Gilmore was actually
in the community. The theory of our
law is that It were better for ninety
nine men to go free than for one
innocent man to be hanged. There's
good deal of lax justice in this
country, but the possibilities Of the
Crippen case suggest that there may
be such a thing as too quick action,

Regarding that pound of tobacco for
Christmas, we've found a way of
beating the tobacco trust. There's a
certain kind of tobacco that comes at
S. a pound. But the tobacco is too
strong for your Uncle Fuller. He
likes grade that sells for IS cents.
So if the person intending to make
the tobacco gift will buy the S5-cent
kind and enclose the change along
with the tobac, We'll beat the trust out
of $4.15.

CALMER AFTER VIEW

CALMER AFTER-ELECTION VIEW.
1t is fortunate that neither party is
so black and futile as the opposing
orators try to prove in the campaign
melee. Some people are always cher
ishing the dream, too, that some day
the good men will all get together in
one party, and bring on day of
stainless political purity.
Good and evil are inextricably
mixed, and such alignment is not
likely before the judgment day. There
is so much amiable folly, that most
people tie up with selfish men who
have some common sense, rather than
with spotless dreamers without tact
and feasibility.
Political parties rather are grouped
around differences of temperament as
to the scope of government, and the
choice between economic theories.
Each party contains plenty of good
men and of good business men. How
ever wrong-headed the leaders, each
must satisfy this conservative senti-
ment to retain power.

AS TO COUNTY OPTION.

The fact that Nebraska elected a
republican governor and state ticket,
and a democratic legislature, might
seem queer to an outside observer,
unacquainted with the situation. The
result can have but one meaning. The
only possible Interpretation of such an
election Is that the people chose Aid
rich and the republican state officials
because they had more confidence in
them than in Oahlman and the ticket
named by the democrats, without re-
gard to county option, and that they
chose a democratic legislature because
they were not enthusiastic over coun-
ty option. The lawmaking body has
thus been made very close on the
option issue, while the other officers
have been selected because of their
superior fitness for the responsible.
tiles involved, IS compared with Dahl
man and his ticket.
The News pointed out in advance
that there was more involved in the
governorship than county option. The
legislature is wnere the county option
was more of real issue. Apparently
the voters took this view and chose
the republican state ticket without re-
gard to option, voting for democratic
lawmakers with county option in mind
