matter what the case is, one of the
first duties of the nurse is to give IA
bed BATH" and to give 1t without al
lowing the patient to take cold OF
causing too much inconvenience. This
Is simple operation which does not
require three years nurse training
to learn to do. The patient should be
placed between two blankets, prefer
ably cotton blankets. The under blan.
ket is arranged as follows: Lift the
patient on one side of the bed by brac-
ing the knees firmly against the bed,
allowing the patient to grasp the nurse
with her arms around her neck. The
nurse puts her arms under the Shout
ders and thighs of the patient and
lifts slowly. In this way the best le-
verage is secured. Now, with the pa
tent on the side of the bed, blanket
should be folded and placed as near
the patient as possible. Then lift back
on the blanket, and the Strengthening
of the blanket on the opposite side
concludes the preparation. The bath
should generally be given with tepid
water, using a pure, nonscented soap.
When a bath is given 10 bring down
temperature it is advisable to mop for
several minutes the parts of the body
where the large arteries are most su-
perficial-namely, the neck, under the
arms and knees and at the elbow. The
ice cap is a most useful accessory in
a sickroom, but hot water bag filed
with finely crushed ice and squeezed
to get the air out before screwing on
the top makes a very good substitute.
Distinction after illness, especially
after an infectious fever, is very i'm
portant and may be done in the fol-
lowing manner: Close the windows.
transoms, etc, stopping every air
chink with cotton. Then stretch a
string from diagonal corners. Get a
large sheet, pour pure formaldchyde
on it and hang it on the string This
should be done as rapidly as possible.
1t Is well to have a cloth soaked in a
weak solution of aromatic spirits OF
ammonia tied across the nose. Breathe
as few times as possible and shut the
door tightly when you get out. Leave
the room closed for twenty-four hours
Then if possible open from the out
side, so as to keep the irritating va
pOrs out of the rest Of the house.
These suggestions are all so simple
that they seem at first superhuous, but
they are seldom carried out unless
there is a trained nurse on the case.

THE S|CKROOM.
1t Should Be Kept as Cheerful
as Possible.
Plenty of Light, Fresh Air and Serupu-
lous Cleanliness Are Among the
Main Essentials to the Re-
coVery of Patients.

The oft cited quotation in regard to
greatness" may be fittingly adapted
to this discussion of home care of the
sck-namely, "Some people are born
nurses, others achieve (by training)
the nurses skill, and some have the
nurses work thrust upon them" And
1t is to this last class that a few sim
pie suggestions about ways of making
the sickroom more cheerful and the
patient more comfortable should be
made.
There are two kinds of sickrooms.
One we see every day, and the other
we would like to see oftener. They
may be designated simply as clutter
ed" and cleared" for ac-
tion," to borrow the naval term, for
really this fight with disease is one
which demands a clean deck"
In illnesses which are liable to be
prolonged the furniture should be re
duced to a bed-iron if possible-a ia
BILE. few chairs with washable COW
ers and white washable curtains on
the windows. No objection can be
found to the patients favOrite books
and pictures being left in the room,
for they frequently shorten the long
hours by their mere presence, sug-
costing 81 kinds of things to think
about. Take out the clock. 1t has a
trick in the sickroom Of taking few
hundred minutes for the minute band
to get around, and its tick is most
ominOus at midnight when one can't
sleep.
The bed should he placed as near
window as possible. and the win
dow should always be left down
from the top" Any family scented
flowers may be kept I'm the room.
Medicines always stay outside
The room being now cleared for ac-
tion," we are ready for the patient.
We have not space TO take up the
nursing of special diseases; but. no

CHINA'S GREAT WALL.
II Would Be a Mighty Task to DupII'
cate IL TODAY.

II Would Be Mighty Task TO DupIl-
cate II Today.
What man has done. we are told,
man can do. But to erect today a
great fertilization comparable to the
Great wall OF China would be q heavy
tax on both the resources and the res
olution Of Europe. A score or two Of
warships are all very well, but the
cost of labor and the will involved In
building fleets can hardly be compared
to those devoted to the building of
that great barrier about two centuries
before the coming Of Christ, when
Rome was struggling with Hannibal
Two thousand five hundred and fifty
miles, including spurs, arms and loops,
Is the length ascribed to it by DR.. w.
E. Cell. the only white man. we be
ileve. who has Travelled the whole
length OF IT. II has been said that the
Great wall is the only object of mans
handiwork which could be discerned
from the moon, and one calculation has
it that IL the material OF the wall were
disposed about tho globe at the equa-
tor there would be a wall girdle eight
feet high and three feet thick around
the earth
One can believe that to this day the
name OF the Emperor Chin is cursed
all along the wall by the posterity of
the wretches who were forced to the
gigantic task Of building It. In the
days of its greatest importance, when
it was still holding back the Tartar
hordes, 1t is believed to have had on
ifs limo Ok OO0 fouyors aoch coDabIa of
holding 100 men. and 1900 watch
towers. Even today there remains 90
600 towers and 10000 watchtowers,
with some 1000 miles Of wall that
could, with moderate repairing. be
made into q formidable military work

Giants and Dwarfs.

In the seventeenth century all the
abnormally large and small folks Of
Austria were assembled In Vienna in
response to a within Of the empress
As circumstances required that all
should be housed in one building. there
was a fear that the imposing proper
lions of the giants would terrify the
dwarfs. But the dwarfs teased and
tormented the giants so that these
overgrown mortals complained with
tears In their eyes, and as a conse-
quence sentinels had to be placed to
protect the giants from their pygmy
prosecutors. for the smallest men had
the biggest brains and the longest
tongues.
