to bluff the unruly natives and so
save the lives of himself and his few
native followers; and other adven-
lures by the score made up the pro-
gram of almost every days progress.
At Kero the Belgian official In
charge offered Grogan a passage in a
whale boat down the Nile to Bohr.
He set out in company with an old
Egyptian Dervish prisoner with a
broken leg, one small boy. a Dinka

Ways of Training

The least important features of the

The sort of visitor who is better than
medicine is the one who is cheerful, quiet

pleasant things she has heard about her
hostess and her hostess family. She
tells an amusing anecdote or two about
common friends. She brings with her
magazine or book containing an interest

for the patient, or begs permission to do
something for her children-take them on

she makes no comment the serious

of visitor that is asked to come again.
Here is word for the nurse-if she is
a member of the family. Most profess
sional nurses have. through experience,
learned TO behave in a professional man
ner. But sometimes the member of the
family who is acting as nurse is prone
to look on the doctors visit as a sort CT
social call. In her effort to appear pleas
ant and cheerful she tells the doctor an
amusing story, perhaps, and then forgets
to bring him the silver spoon or glass of
water he has asked for. She is doing her
best, no doubt. to make life pleasant
both for the patient and the physician.
but she is making the patient nervous
and probably boring the doctor.

New Pink Velvet Gowns.

At the cooler summer resorts where
women can afford to wear heavier fab
RIGS in the evening than net and lace
there have been appearing gowns Of rose
pink velvet with short and long sleeves:
all of these are draped, and many of
them extend well under the bust with a
top of white. flesh pink tulle or net cut
into "a deep back and front and with
sleeves which are mere wisps OF tulle.
Between the transparent bodice and the
velvet skirt there is always IL huge pink
rose if the gown allows that color The
new touch. by tho way, Is to put one
black velvet rosebud in any group of
coIored flowers or against one large flow
..r which has green leaf.
In making afternoon gowns Of velvet
the same transparent method is carried
out above the waist line. but in this case
the net or lace used must match the vel
vol of the skirt. AS long coats are
promised for the autumn there is no
doubt that the transparent afternoon
waists will remain part of the fashions,
However what "A woman can do with a

diamond buckles.
There are also elaborate girdles of
black velvet made to conceal the waist
and fatten the back of the skirt by
means of wide sash ends that look like
drapery.
There are also hats of velvet without
anv trimming except a feathery num.dis
OF fantastic brush of some kind. The
small velvet hats arc very much in favor
