fession of Chiidren's Nurse
Will Not Succeed.

The great essention for any girl
adopting the profession OF children s
nurse is that she must have a great
love for the wee folk, to be able to
enter into their feelings, to sympa.
thize with their sorrows and joys. A
child's nurse must not be cynic
She must know the Importance of lit
tie things to children, must know
that the molehills of grown-ups are
the mountains Of boys and girls. Now
adays the children's nurse must be a
comrade and companion as well as
mentor to her young charges, but the
latter role must never be over-empha
sized.
1t is well, too, for any girl desiring
to become nurse of this kind to &c
somewhere and obtain the proper
training for the position. 1t is a big
advantage when seeking employment
Briefly, the nurse of children must
be able to superintend the children's

In the past helf century, thousands
of ladies have written, like Mrs Mon
Grief, 10 tell of the benefit received

The Pearlsides Fish.

The Commissioners of Fisheries have
just received interesting specimens of
"a remarkable little fish never before
linens have been caught in the United
States and Europe, says a Canadian
press despatch. 1t is a, small silvery
fish not unlike a small herring, but
has two rows of pearl organs along
the sides of the body.
The fish We're caught by fishermen
on Grand Manan, and they are scien-
tifcally valuable and interesting. The
most wonderful feature is the fact
that each of the pearl organs gives out
a brilliant light, similar to a small
electric lamp.
The fish is called the "Pearlsides''
and belongs to a group of very rare
fish that are luminous. Very little is
known about the life history of these
small fish, but scientific authorities
are of the opinion that they inhabit
the deepest waters of the ocean, and
that the light they give out enables
them to procure their food and may
also protect them by frightening away
their enemies.
Professor Prince is handing these
specimens over to the Biological So
ciety. of which he is chairman, but is
preparing a technical report for the
ROYAL Society of Canada. 1t may be
added that no specimens of this lumi-
nous fish have ever been recorded pre-
yiousIv in Misunderstanding Gazette.
