nurse, it is necessary for the protec
ton of the person who acts in this
capacity and for those who come in
contact with the patient, that the ut
most care be exercised.
Instead of handkerchiefs to receive
the nose and mouth discharges the
sick person should be supplied with
cheesecloth or paper napkins. Those
which have been used and discarded
should be handled only by the nurse
and should Be b,irned immediately. -
After handling such materials the
hands should be thoroughly disintec-
ted with some good antiseptic solu-
ton or washed with disinfectant soap.
The dishes and eating utensils used
BY the sufferer should never be washed
with those used in the household by
the family. They should be placed i'll
u pan containing a disinfecting solu-
ton of cresola or formaldehyde, Whlch
may be kept just outside the sick
room door. Afterwards they should
lie placed in boiling water and al
lowed to boil for 10 or 10 minutes.
Sheets and bedclothes cannot help
but become sprinkled with fine par
ticles of sputum when the patient
coughs or sneezes and they should be
placed in tub containing one of the
disjnfecting solutions and allowed to
soak for three hours, after which they
should be boiled for one-half hour.
When there is a sufferer from tuber-
culosis in the household he should not
use the dishes or eating utensils which
the other members of the family use
but should be supplied with an indi-
Vidual outfit.

.ately 500 officers from the allied ma

counter when they meet the foe in
| France.
The 800 French and British officers
will not remain at Fort Myer but will
be sent throughout the country to all
the training camps SO that they can
| advise with the instructors at each
place. A detail of the officers will be
left at the Virginia camp, however,
and the candidates will have the bene-
fit Of first instruction from the en-
tire group.

terests will be seized by Mr.. Palmer
and disposed OF as he sees fit This
property includes at least 100000
bales Of cotton, which is needed very
badly by England, France and Italy at
this time. Mr. Palmer. may sell this
cottgn at the market price, or confis-
cate it to .he government use and
hold the amount received at market
price for future disposition.
