Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 136, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 6 June 1912 — For the Sickroom. [ARTICLE]

For the Sickroom.

A convenience for a sick person is a good-sized shoe bag, with ample pockets, which may be fastened with large safety-pins to the mattress, on whichever side of the invalid’s bed U is needed. In the pockets may be stored books, papers, fancy work, handkerchief and various articles that are constantly being lost or getting out of reach. This idea is suggested for one who is confined to her bed for some time, yet is able to read, write and amuse herself.
