Care Of the Sick.

If you are caring for an invalid at

traetive as possible. There should not

damp cloth. The rugs should be tax

and swept.
Dust the lodges, the shelves, chairs and
tables with damp cloth. Everything
in the room should be wiped off once
4 day.
II you can. get the patient out Of
the room while it is being cleaned. 1t
Is better. II this is impossible, clean
it. as quietly and quickly as you can,
without worrying the patient.
+ There should not be too many un-
necessary kknacks in the room.
Have only what is useful or pleasing.
DO not have wooden curtains, but some
simple cotton material that can be
washed often. Have the bed comfort.
able, a good thick mattress, and
smooth spring.
It is more convenient to have the
bed stand one foot from the wall so
that you can go behind, for pulling up
your patient in bed, or readiusting the
pillows. The bed should be made up
freshly each day. If the patient can
get up, the mattress should be turned,
the sheets cooled and fresh pillow cases,
if you can conveniently use so many
If the patient can't get out of bed,
you should twice a day brush out all
the crumbs, smooth the sheet so there
will be no wrinkles and tidy up the bed
and pillows
The hospitals have an easy way of
using draw sheet. This is smaller
sheet put across the bed over the bot
tom sheet, and just under the patient.
It can be slipped easily and shaken,
and the cool side put uppermost.
To do this without moving or lift
ing your patient, have the sheet in folds,
up and down the bed on the right side.
Then tilt or turn your patient over to
the left side and pass the end of the
sheet and some of the folds under her.
Next go to the left side of the bed, turn
your patient to the right, on the clean
sheet and draw the end over to the
left side. Now tuck it under the mat
tress tight. so it will not slip and wrin-
kle. The sick room should be well aired.
Often the family use the sick room
as general sitting room, so as to
entertain" the i'll one. This is UNI
wise in most cases, as sick people should
not see too much company. Besides too
many people in one room use up the
good pure air and make it heavy and
unclean Thus the patient feels drowsy
and oets headache
If the patient wishes to be kept warm
and not feel the air, you can open the
door into the next room and the win
dow there In this way the patient gets
fresh, cool air without really feeling
it.
At least twice day you should cover
your patient with extra blankets, put |
d shawl around her head, and open the |
windows, top and bottom, for five or ten
This allows the room to get |
filed with fresh, clean, cool air. II win |
greatly refresh the patient, and give a
better nights sleep. Exchange.

The Good Old DAYS.

The good old days, the good old days
When Eve and Adam wooed,
Eve did not yearn for taxieabs
Or want expensive food.
And after they We're man and wife
She did not turn her head
And point to some chap passing by,
As one she might have we'd
The good old days, the good old days,
In Eve and Adams time,
They did not keep a fourth-hoor hat
With marble stairs to climb;
He did not have to wake at
And quit some pleasant dream,
And toddle to the basement cold
To get little steam.
The good old days, the good old days,
OF Mother Ewes romance,
She never dragged poor Adam out
At night unto dance.
No operas Metropolitan
Fer took him from his door,
There were no high brow stunts like that
Good Adams life to bore.
The good old days. the good old days,
When all the world was young,
Eve never made poor Adam eat
Boiled ham or ported tongue.
They knew not then cold-storage eggs
Or predigested chaff,
The safety razor wasn't known,
Nor was the phonograph.
The good old days, the good old days,
When Eve and Adam dwelt
In peace, he never had to wear
His trousers with a belt;
There was no woollen underwear,
Or cen a fuzzy-hat,
And Eve was never known to say:
'.Am | as fat as thatf'

When Rublnstein. the composer. was
youth be lett Russia, his native
~ountry. TO study music in France and
Germany. We finished his studies when
he was twenty years old and then re-
turned 10 ST. Petersburg But before
he could begin to give public reeitals
1t was necessary that he should have
pass from the police authorities. 1t
was true he was Russian subject and
very lnoffenslve young man. but
then he had been absent from his ma
tive land some time. He might have
lmbibed revolutionary ldeas when
abroad. and It was best not TO take
any risks. but have him registered and
Iept under surveillance.
Rubinstein applied 10 the police for
a pass. but. probably because he was
shy and mild hammered every official
bullied him and grufily passed him
to another official equally rude and
overbearing. Finally he became so
tired OF the indignitles that he went
TO see the governor general He had
just begun TO tell his story when that
dlgnltary roared:
You musician? Pnh. I'll put you
In irons and send you to Siberia!
That's the only ct place for such as
your
Rublnsten nearly tainted from
fright, but he got away as best he
could The days went by. and still no
pass came 10 him. Some Of his friends,
however. knew of the treatment he
bad received. One day Rubinstein was
summoned TO appear beore the chief
Of police. General Galichoff. He had
to wait three hours. AT last he was
called into the great mans presence
and addressed as follows:
We'll, young man. have been
spoken TO about you. am told that
you are some sort of musician, but
don't believe anything Of the kind.
Go to my chief secretary. Schesnok.
and play for him, so that we can tell
Il you really are musician--that is,
man who understands music
All this was said In a contemptuous
tone. Rubinstein was taken to the sec.
rotary. who was the possessor Of the
most wretched piano Rubinstein ever
had heard. much less played on. He
was angry and Disguised. and
thought flashed across him. Here was
an opportunity to be reyenged for the
insults heaped upon him He would
vent his Indignation on the piano,
And so be did He pounded and ham
mered the poor instrument until II
seemed to shrek. The discordant
notes which came from it. falling upon
his delicate ear. served but TO increase
his rage and frenzy. 1t was as If o
cyclone was at work String after
string snapped. and the unhappy sec
rotary stood by. expecting every min.
ute that his beloved instrument would
fly into splinters. At last Rubinstein
stopped from sheer exhaustion
Come with lac" said the secretary.
And the pianist followed him into
the presence of the chief OF police.
