Ballad. .. Newspapers.

The ballad, or that form Of It which
Is associated with the broadside. waf
one predecessor Of the newspaper as q
commentator on events. It was writ
ten for the people and sold to the peo
pie. Printed on poor paper and passed
from hand to hand, copies Of early bal
lads were seldom preserved. Fortu
nately several men Of the seventeenth
century began to make collections Of
ballads, and the copies Of broadsidei
printed before 100 that are now in ex
istence are supposed to number abou
10000. Soon after 1700 the printed
form Of the ballad was changed, the
.'black letter" disappearing. but thu
ballad continued as a chronicler Of hap
penings and q commentator on politi
cal. military and other public event.
until the middle Of the nineteenth cen
tury and in the United States as vel
as England. The topical song OF to
day perpetuates the satirical function
Of the ballad.-Springfeld Republican.

ics, University Of Maine.
There are few women who are not
called upon at some time to care for the
sick. The importance of good nursing
cannot be overestimated. In many casei
the recovery of the patient depends
more upon the care in nursing and In
following the DOCTORS instructions thar
medical skill. Nursing Is not done BY
instinct, although Instinct often helps,
but 1t 10 done by thorough knowledge.
The things necessary for health are
IN pure air, for impure air brings
about a devitslized condition Of the
body which makes 1t susceptible to dis
ease; (2) sunshine and light, (9 prop.
or food which has been we'll cooked and
thoroughly masticated; (4) rest, recre'
alton and exercise; t0 cleanliness.
In the sick room good air should be
had day and night. This should De care
fully adjusted TO avoid direct drafts. AZ
much sunlight should be let into the
room a. the patient can stand but u
should be properly tempered TO sui
each individual case. Sunlight Increases
the vitality of the patient and decreases
the vitality Of disease germs
The temperature Of the sick room
should be little lower than In an ordi.
nary living room. In certain diseases
such a. pneumonia, typhoid fever and
Tuberculosis, the windows are kept wide
open.
Cleanliness 10 absolutely essential both
In the sick room itself and In the person.
al care of the patient. For this reason,
dust-colleoting essentials should be
taken out of the room. Quiet aud cheer.
fulness are necessary to help tho patient
to recovery.
The common symptoms Of illness, OF
of an abnormal condition In the body,
are: headache, aching back and limbs,
nausea, coated tongue, diarrhea, cough,
irritability Of temper and listlessness,
sore throat or fever. II any of these
are observed in members OF ones family.
some step should be taken at once to re.
lieve the condition. A safe thing to do
is to give hot bath and.put the person
to bed, following this treatment with Q
dose of castor oil, II necessary. II any
symptom does not yield ct once to home
treatment, . good doctor should be CON.
suited. This saves time and strength
and often money. .

FOOD, =,
| (Dorothea Beach, Instructor In Home Econom'
| ics. University Of naine.)
In considering this subject, tho firsl
l0uestion which comes 70 ONES mind 10,
"What II foodf' "a food may DO de.
Hned % anything which when taken
into tho body, 10 capable either OF 70.
pairing its waste or Of furnishiug 1t with
material from which to produce heat o.
nervous and muscular work"
Our bodies ara Ike engines which
fneed fuel and fresh air to produce heat
| and energy. The fuel which We put
into our bodies 10 the food We eat. The
fresh air 10 necessary to make this food
burn up 20 that We get tho desired heat
and energy.
The body 10 made up Of tiny living
cells In which chemical changes arc tax
Ing place constantly. Old worthless
mstsrial 10 being cast aside and replaced
| BY new material. The food which We
eat must supply the chemical elements
which are necessary to bring about these
changes. Food Is made mp OF carbon,
hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur,
| iron. phosphorus, etc., combined In such
| . way that the cells Of the body can use
them % fuel. These combinations are
called "food principles.
There are five food principles, caroo
hydrates, psoteins, fats, water and asn
constituents or mineral matter. Most
foods contain some of each OF these food
principles but the foods arc classified
under the principle of which they have
| the largest percentage composition.
The foods which bring about
growth and repair In the body are called
protein foods and contain nitrogen. The
protein foods which are Of animal origin
are meat, fish. eggs, milk and cheese.
Those of vegetable origin are beans,
peas, lentils and nuts.
II The foods which produce heat and
force are the carbohydrates, or starchy
foods, potatoes, rice, corn, cereals,
tapioos and sage, fats and sugar.
Ill Vegetables with little or no
starch and fruits, fresh or cooked, are
| very necessary to the body for they give
bulk 10 the food which helps the move
ment of the intestines, and they give
mineral salts. So cabbage, turnips,
parsnips, beets, lettuce, celery, spinach,
tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, etc., find
an essential place In the diet. -
Water is very necessary to the body,
There 10 great deal OF water In food
but this needs to be supplemented BY
drinking plenty of water between meals
and some water with the meals. The
adult should drink three pints OF water
daily.
During the day the adult should cal
about one part protein food and about
| Eve parts of other food. II ut each
meal some food 10 selected from each oil
| the three groups named above, the diet
will be fairly we'll balanced.
