"Of course we do a great deal of actual nurs-
ing and that is most important" Dr. Stephenson
says, but another thing, which is even bigger, is
this: We show women who have thought them
selves wholly unloved that some one cares for
them. They know that there is very small
money consideration given and that what we
do is done for love. So they love us.

of her caste she could not much leave the

Another woman burned her knee and turned
up at the hospital five months later with that part
of her leg in terrible condition. The leg was cut
off and the woman made a perfect recovery.

injured woman. She had fallen down a well and

on the floor grinding corn, every turn of her arm

told her husband she had to be taken TO the
hospital or she would die and he asked who would
cook the bread If she were gone. He refused to
allow her to go. All l could do to leave a

DR.. Stephenson finds that the natives invariably
prefer using ontments to clean dressings. Women
come in large numbers to get ointments for raw
sores where their husbands have beaten and cut
them and they are full of gratitude to the doctor
She finds that those of high class just as bru-
tally treated and Just grateful as the lowest.

in India" she says. "and that account the

a result the poor homes Oyerrun with bedbugs
and other vermin, which spread all sorts of fevers
and diseases.
"And another OF their ideas is that We don't
know anything about raising babies. Hindoo
mothers without exception, give opium to their
babies to make them sleep while they work in the
fields AS result large proportion of the little
Hindoo babies die before they are year old. Most
of the work among the natives is surgical and the
obstetrio cases the most interesting. This is
because the natives have medicines of their own,
but know nothing Of the use Of the knife"

When Buddhist prays he implores his god
that when he dies he shall not be cursed by be-
ing born again as a woman or as vermin. That
is the attitude of the native men of India toward
women and against which the missionaries in the
Orient directing all their energy.
DIR. Eleanor Stephenson, a Brooklyn woman
who has been practicing medicine in India for
three years and who will return to her work
there soon makes appeal to American women
to go out there, the New York Evening Telegram
says.
'T want the women here to realize what 1t
means to be born in America" she said recently
ITO be born where a woman is the backbone OF
the man, his strength and help in every way!
Why out in Ahmednagar, where my work Is,
woman is no more than animal She is for
the purpose Of raising children and that is all
man thinks more of his cow--if he Is lucky
enough to have one-than he does of his wife.
"a Hindoo husband will let his wife die before
he will call in a man to give her medical or sur
gcal treatment. That shows the need for women
physicians in the Orient"
In Ahmednagar, which is an inland plateau
about hundred miles from Bombay. there are
two physicians, DR.. Ruth Hume and DIR. Stephen
son, and one American trained nurse Miss John
son. Under Miss johnson there are IA native
women who have had some slight training and

about so miles, though some special cases have
come as far as 800 miles.

phenson, gives some interesting fig
ures about the number Of nurses and
doctors in the Orient. There are
probably" he says, mot more than
100 nurses in the entire missionary
world and there S0,OO0,000 people in
non-Christian lands who have no med
ical aid except missionary physicians.
All Christendom has sent out only
$50 medical missionaries, male or fe-
male, and this body maintains 348
hospitals, 81 leper asylums and Fl
classes for native women.
Zone physician who had no nurse
to help him treated $4,000 cases in a
year. So you see that the supply of
trained medical assistance is wofully
inadequate.

As there are no wharves, the oysters are carried
shore and deposited in the "kottu" by the
strong porters. AS soon the shells depos-

government as their share, the other one-third
going to the boat which brings them in. At sun
set the shells auctioned by the thousand. and
there is fierce competition, for who knows what

derive some of its virtue from
their neighborhood.
The pearl is all the more sought
after because, unlike other pre-
cious stones, no amount of artifi-
cial treatment, such as cutting or
polishing, can enhance its beau
ties. Natures workmanship must
be perfect and untouched and the
pearl comes to you exactly as it
energies from the oyster. On the
other hand, 1t has this disadvan-
tage. 1t is liable to discoloration
and the only way is to give 1t a
rest from too much contact with
the skin. Still that is not the only
stone which suffers discoloration.

Marie Antoinette, preserved in a

after years of nonuse began to

JACKsoNs

That excellent bill of vaudeville
 shieh has been delighting capacity Audiences at JackSon's Theatre all this week, comes to a close this evening, and all who have not as yet seen it should endeavor to do so at one of the closing performances tonight. for it is one Of the most pleasing bills of the season, and is divertiag enough in character to suit the most critical 3 lover of vaudeville.
 While all the bills of vaudeville which Manager Jackson has provided excellent and thoroughly pleasing in every respect. the program which he will offer next week surpasses in ele- galaf. sumptuousness and cost any of these previous entertainments, and is a bill which should attract record breaking attendances the entire week. Heading the bill for the entire week ever produced, and Incidentally the only act of it's kind in the world, the three sensational Roehrs. presenting their nerve racking. blood-curda1ng spectacle, Looping the I4oop'', in the revolving globe. By this startling feat, the Roehrs demonstrate that it is wards in a revolving apparatus by mere strength alone. While the cy- cIist is riding. the globe lifts up and turns on an edge, till it comes into a vertical position. and then gradually returns into it's original position. The dangers which accompany this per 1OrE1anCe are many ana the cycllSI practically takes his life into his hands every time he attempts this feat. It has taken the three Roehrs over five years of constant practice to accom- pIish it. and has been attended by many close calls from death. They have only recently completed a highly successful European tour, which in cIuded a stay of 18 weeks at the Lon don Pavilion, London. Eng, and where they were pronounced the most thrill ing feature thai had were played that famous resort.
 The remainder of the bill is of an excellent character and includes: Ivy & Ivy. expert comedy musicians: Mark and Laura Davis. presenting their original comedy creation Hans, the dancing sailor. The usual three reels of pictures will also be shown.
 As a special added attraction for the last three days of the week Manager Jackson will offer the tabloid musical comedy Vacation Days. introducing the famous German comedian. Irv Cfous. and a large company of talented favorites.
