Etiquette of the Sick Room A STORY Is told of Sidney Smith, the celebrated English wit. that when a few hours before hi Wth. ha was told that a certain friend had called to see him, he said wearily: "Oh. tell him to come vf -morrow; he won't disturb me .then." So many people with the beat and kindest Intentions In the world, are . a source of dread to their sick friends, even after they hare made all possible allowance for their food intentlona. , Three thinrs should be kept in ' mind by the caller in the elck room .who wishes to make hie visit a pleasure. - Time your visit so that it may be made at the hoar moat convenient : 'for the invalid. Do not try to accommodate his hours to yours. If you are a business man and .cannot take the time off to call In the middle of the day. do not go. -. , There Is so much routine about the life of a sick room that there' la danger of interrupting It if you to early In the morning, or late In the afternoon, or early in the evening. From fifteen to twenty minutes is Ions enough to stay. - The wise person will not be berulled by his friend's protestations that be is not at all tired. And finally, most Important of all. " is the atmosphere created., by the caller; ' Choose a topic of conversation that will not excite. The whole manner and expression even the . tone of the - voice," are important. The oversensitive invalid unconsciously absorbs all these thing

4 yrOCXIB OHAMER, I den t. y I knew whether to be angry leased;; but you've certainly cut me out with Mr. Porter. Now wili you ever" cU yourself a "puKy old maid ag-alnt" 7 "Dont - silly, Kitten. He's a serious minded man who likes to talk to an oMer woman . on questlons little girls - haven't thought much abut.M r "Don't teli me that.. Miss Mary. I saw him looking deep . Into big slater's pansy eyes and I bet he wasn't discussing the tartft when he did it.":. "No. he wasn't. Kitten. He was telling mo about the home for crippled children In which he Is interested and begging me to let the big surgeon at the head of It come and examine Neddie and then take him over to one of the lovely white beds where he can get a nurse's attention, for that's what he needs." "Oh! How wonderful. Mr. Porrter never would have made such an offer to me. Now you see which of us he really likes." "No, Sue now you see which of us he really can talk to. And that makes a lot of difference. Tou attracted Mr. Porter because you have pretty rust colored curls and lovely long lashed blu" eyes and" then after he'd looked all he wanted at the picture,-you didn't offer Mm anything -more." 41 j ' "Meaning, Blg Sister of mine, that Little Sister ain't got no brains to spare nohow!" The Wrong Way. "Meaning nothing of the sort. Sue. as you very well know. But Little Sister doesn't offer the products of her brain to men.'; She dimples and smiles and drops her long eyelashes at gracefully arranged Intervals, and makes it very evident that see expects to be admired. But she doesn't try to be a companion or to understand what the men are thinking about, does she?" "I'm not smart enough, Mollte. and you know It. I'm a pretty good stenographer and I know a lot more about spelling and grammar than some of my bosses. I can take letters from them like an expert but what have I got to say out of office hours that would Interest them?" : "Well you might try saying some of the things you say to me. We had a very interesting talk the other night, you and T, Little Sister, about the men:. In the -Pittsburgh steel mills who are getting a hundred dollars a "flay-for -work that used to brinjc them ten. You were

wondering if it mads them any happier if their wives d children got any more out of life now. Do yon think Mr. Porter dreams that that curly head of yours is capable , of evc-lving a real interest like that an interest outside of yourself?" -ButrMoirier he doesn't want ; Jrlrl to talk to him about things Ike- that. He'll discuss such subjects with men. .He goes to a. girl for relaxation and sweetness." "Tee partly. But there's noth- ; ing awfully relaxing about studying a pretty face that never lights up with real interest or sympathy. When you giggle and ask him whether he likes Theda Bara or Dorothy Green better or whether he doesn't care for vampires, and then influence soulfully if he thinks you look anything like Mary Pickford and whether he 'imagines you'd do . well In the movies you aren't appealing to the real man." "Well what does appeal to tho real man then?" Tho Answer. "Charm. And nobody ever defined It,, though they say Sarah Bernhardt still has it at seventytwo. I imagine partly a God-given gift a something In your soul that calls to people. But I'll wager it's partly a thing you can cultivate. And I think a sympathetic interest in Mr. Man and what he does and dreams goes a lot further toward, making you charming than fluttering a curtain of black eyelashes up and down" over blue eyes." "Say. Mollte don't yon ever go into the vampire business you're -pretty clever. Tou certainly played the sympathetic game for all it was . worth last night pretending you were interested in Mr. Porter and his heme for crippled children. That would have been too deep for me if yon hadn't explained it." "I haven't explained it Sue If you think it's that. Sympathy isn't a gajne lfs a real, live, warm human Interest you feel. It goes like a current from you to the person you are talking to." - "Mary Ellsworth Granger you aid you couldn't define charm. Of course you can; you've got It. And when you tell me that prettlness can't hold men you're tacitly warning Little Sister that she needn't hope to keep any of her beaux once they set eyes on you." "What a dear little flatterer you are. Sue. Tou make me feel almost young and attractive. Mr. Porter was very nice to us both but probably we'll never see him again." "I wonder! You've made me kind of scairt that prettiness won't hold a man b,ut charm, Mollie, charm; you've convinced Little Sister that does the trick; and. likewise, you've convinced Little Sister that you have it.'v I think we'll see more of Mr. Cornelius K Porter, Of Chicago. . T wonder if his friends call him NealT" (Watch for the aext InstaUstsntJ
