Hints For the Home Sickr00m:
Package Goods For Housekeeper

There should be no pictures or deco
rations upon the walls of the impro-
vised hospital in your home, and the
floor should be bare, without even a
rug. Only the necessary furniture
should be permitted in the room. A
white enameled bed should stand well
in the middle of the room, so that the
nurse may pass easily from the head
to foot and from one side to the other.
The mattress and springs should be
high, so that the nurse will not strain
her back in her constant bending over
the patient. A table and chairs of
inexpensive wood, SO that in case of
contagious disease they can be burn
ed, and cot for the nurse, screened
off in one corner of the room, should
complete the furnishing. Danish up
holstered chairs or cot coverings that
cannot be washed. Curtains, if used
at all, should be of simple material
readily laundered.
With a room of this sort kept al
ways in readiness a prolonged spell
of sickness, where one after another
of the family catches the disease, may
be prevented, and is worth fitting up
as a matter of precaution, even with
the prayer that it will never be used.
+ In one home such place has been
Installed, with every appliance for a
hurry call, even to the operating room.
Here, through one of those floor, wall
and ceiling coverings put on in the
plastic state, the entire room is seam
less and without crevice, so that a
hose could be turned on and the room
washed without danger Of water get
ting in the plastering or under the
floor. A room of this kind would be
easy to install when building, or could
be made over in an old house, but is
somewhat expensive.
However, there is no reason why
an ordinary room in an ordinary house
could not be set aside at little ex-
pense. 1t should be as near the bath
as possible, and on the sunny side of
the house. The chief thought must be
given to sanitation and the room so
arranged that it can be readily dis
infected. The walls should be painted
instead of papered or calcimined. A
soft gray or neutral blue is best, as
the glare of white wall is trying to
the eyes, and harsh or bright colors
have bad effect upon the nerves
The painted walls can be washed with
Eantiseptic wash.

Bedtime Stories
For Little Folks
OLD lSAAC'S GRATITUDE,
Part II.

Old Isaac was very much pleased
when he found that John really wish.
ed to help him, SO they put out the
lights and waited.
They did not have long to wait, for
soon they saw the boys creeping along
the road and up to the barn, and
then tiny flame sprang up.
John was out of the house in a Sec
ond, and the boys did not recognize
him because he wore one of Old
lsac's caps and coat
When the boys came to the house
old Isaac opened the door before they
could start the fire there, and when
they found he had someone to help
him the boys ran and did not come
back.
John stayed a while and talked with
old Isaac, who showed him his col
lection of birds and animals which he
had found either dead or dying.
The next day John met the boys
who had set the fire by Old lsaac's
barn, and they told John he should
have been along to share the fun.
There wasn't much fun, though"
said one. "Old Isaac had someone
there TO help him, so we ran Off"
"I think we ought to be ashamed to
plague the old man. said John, "he
never has done anything to us, and
lust suppose the barn had caught fire
and burned to the ground. l guess
Won fellows would have been sorry.
Or II the old mans clothes had
caught fire and he had been burned
know none of you would have wanted
that to happen"
eve never thought of that" said one
of the boys. 1--WE wanted some fun
and to see Old Isaac scamper back
and forth" -.
So the boys agreed never to call old
Isaac names or bother him again.
One day old Isaac met John on the
street Don't you go to schooi!
asked old Isaac, cor are you out JUST
for the day."
"No, sir; had to leave school,
hated to do it, but mother cannot uo

Yet when news of his death came,
she rose to the occasion in the most
wonderful manner. Although / idol
lied him, and can never feel the same
again, will have my country and my
child to live fort" she declared brok-
emily, "and it is wrong at such crisis
in the affairs of the nation to give
way to selfish grief. I will pull myself
together and hide my sorrow"
1t was pathetic to watch her at
tempts at self-reliance. She was a
helpless little creature who had never
done thing for herself in her life
but she was determined to turn over
a new leaf.
Her morning she devoted to nurs.
ing the wounded in the hospitals, al.
though, as she informed me later, "the
sights she saw gave her shuddering
quite indescribable."
In the afternoons she drove with
her little girl to different French
homes and there left gifts of clothing
and necessities. "They suffer much
the poor souls" she would say, with
tears in her pretty eyes, "and l know
that he would like me to spend my
time in this way"
When evening came and dinner was
finished, she would slip out to little
church around the corner close to the
Bots de Boulogne, and there pray fol
the soul of her husband and the other
men who had fallen in battle.
Another young French-woman, who
had lost her father and three brothers
in the war, spent all her time in nurs
ing, and in dressing dolls. The dolls
were sold to various good ladies', ant
she gave the proceeds to women lef
fatherless and husbandless.
1t is the same all over France JUS
now. The women are not unduly Cd
timistic about the war, for the strug
gle is pretty evenly matched at pres
ent-but they are all alike in theil
wonderful courage, and their unselfish
ness in times of trial and stress.

go to school and finish his education"
old Isaac said to Johns mother.
'I am getting old and need some
one to help about the house. Besides
that l am tired of doing my cooking.
If you can rent your house I will build
an addition to mine and you can move
your furniture in the new part and
can live in the old part. John can
help about the place before and after
school and that will pay for his board.
will pay you for keeping my house
and that will be enough for you and
John to dress on. What do you say?'
John and his mother were too as
tonished to reply for a minute, and
then John said, II am sure mother
thinks your offer as generous and
splendid as l do"
Johns. mother said she would be
only too glad to keep old Isaac's
house and let John go to school, and
so it was arranged that John was to
go back to school at once, and as soon
as the house was ready they were to
move into old Isaacs home.
Old Isaac did not live to see John
finish his education, but he left all his
money to John, which made quite a
large sum, so John went to college as
old Isaac had wished him to do.

tell who was the manufacturer, wheth-
er the goods were put up under sani-
tary conditions; or, in fact, whether
such goods were pure or adulterated.
So the package or original container
became the way in which goods bought
could be identified. The label is the
guarantee of quality, purity, santa
ton and Standardization. The trade
mark nowadays has new meaning
for women, because it decides the i'm
portant question of grades. One brand
of goods may be just as pure as an
other, but the quality will not always
be the same, and the housekeeper will,
after testing, demand that she be
served with the brand of goods she
calls for. The day of the lust as
good" is past as far as intelligent
women are concerned. In fact, the
question of grades is so well recogniz-
formerly sold in bulk are now brand
ed, and if any time a package should
not come up to the standard the fact
can be instantly brought to the atten-
tion of the packer, who will be only
too glad to make good. This would
be impossible in bulk goods, and con-
sequently the consumer would be out
the entire cost of the purchase.
Correct weight is another thing in
favor of the package. The temptation
to give short weight of goods sold in
bulk is eliminated. Again, the price
of package goods does not fiuctuate
as easily as that of goods in bulk.
There is a standard price, and if this
price is lowered by any retail store
upon a certain day, purchasers feel
quite assured they are really getting
bargain. They can take advantage
of the offer and buy package goods at
an actual cost of less than the same
thing in bulk in many instances.
There is no question that package
goods are much cleaner than the loose
products, which are too often open to
absorb dust from floor sweepings,
served by hands not too clean, to say
nothing of being handled by prospec-
tive customers.
1t is tribute to the housewives in
telligence that she has come to be-
lieve in the package goods despite the
slight extra cost.

the Count is ready to renounce his

When the yacht was captured, it was

citizenship. Dispositions of those who
knew of the naturalization of the
Count will be presented to 6deral

claim.
