HINTS FOR THE SICK BOOM.
The sick-room should be the lightest, most cheerful, and best ventilated room in the house. Patients in the sunny wards of hospitals recover soonest, and the sick, in nearly all cases, lie with .1 u_v.* Vrorothlnor
though, when the latter is used, it may Ije kept clean by throwing a few damp tea-leaves over only a part of the room at a time, then quietly brushing thern up with a hana-broom. A table not liable to injury, a small wicker basket with compartments to hold the different bottles*of medicine and a small book in which to write all the physician's jdireetionH, two baskets made on the
same plan to hold glasses or cups, screens to shade the light from the eyes of the patient, a nursery-lamp with which to heat water, beef-tea, etc., a quill ?tied on tho door-handle with whicn the nurse can notify others that the patient is asleep by merely passing the featherend through the key-hole, several "ring cushions" to give relief to patients compelled to lie continually in one position it these cushions are circular pelces of old linen sewed together and stuffed with bran or pads may be used, made of cotton-batting basted into nieces of old muslin of any
HIZG
required), and a sick
couch or chair, area few of the many conveniences which ought to be in every sick room.
Pure air in a siok room is of the utmost importance. In illness, the poisoned bodv is desporately trying to throw off, through lungs, skin, and in every possible way, the noxious materials that have done the mischief. Bad air and dirt or saturated bed-clothes, increase the "difficulty at the very time when the weakened powers need all the help they can get. Avoid air from kitchen or close closets. Outsido air is the best, but, if needed, thero should be afire in the room to tako off chill. A cold is rarely taken in
IMMItho
with tho lied-clothea
well tucked in, but in getting up out of warm IHMoftener
I
when tho skin is
relaxed, of course anything like a "chill should be avoided, and it is not well to allow a draft or current of air to pass directly over the bed of the patient.
A good way to secure a supply of fresh air, without a draft, ito have a board, live or six inchoH wide and as long as the idtli of the window ralso thelowor sasli, place board under It, and the fresh air linds its way in between the sash by an upward current.
In disease less boat is produced by the body than In health. This docline occurs even {In summer, and Is usually most evident in tho oarly morning, when the vital powers slacken, tho food of tho precious day kaving been exhausted. The sick should be watched between midnight and ton or oleven in the morning, and If any decline In hoat 1H noticed, it should be supplied bv jugs of hot water. A siok room should, above all, lo quiet. Any rustling sound, such as that of a silk dress or shoos which crack, should lie entirely avoided. If it is necessary to put coal on tho fire, drop it on quiotly in small paper sacks, or rollod in mjior slightly dampened, Visitors should never le admitted to a nick room. The necessary attendants aro usually a sufficient annoyance to a weak patfent, and many a tombstone might truthfully and appropriately be lnscrilHd, "Talked to death by well meaning friends." It is not generally the loudness of a noise that disturbs the nick, but tho sound that produces expectation of something to happen. Some cannot boar any noise. Anything that suddenly awakens is injurious. Never awaken a slooplng pAtlont unless ordered to do so bv tho physicians. In sickness, tho brain Is weakened with tho rest of tho body, and sleep strengthens it. If rost is interrupted soon after it is begun, the brain is woakenodso much the moro. and the patient bocomes irritable and wakeful. If sloop lasts longor, ho falls asleep again more roadily. Nover spoak •within tlio hoaring of the sick, In tones which cannot le fully understood. An occasional word, or murmur of converHatlon, or whispor, is intolerable, and occasions needless apprehension.
Few jiersons have any idea of the exqulsito neatness necessary In a sick room. What a woll person might endure with impunity, may prove fatal to a weak patient. Especially the bed und bodding should bo scrounulously clean. In most disease tho functions of the skin are disordered, and tho clothing becomes saturated with foul pi-aspiration, so that the patient alternates between a cold damp after the bod Is made, and a warm damp IWoro, »xth poison to his systom. tShects which aro used should bo dried often from this poisonous damp, either in tho sun or by tho tire, and the mattress and blanket next tho street should also lie carefully aired as often as possible. In changing very sick patients (particularly women after confinement) tho sheets and wearing-clothes should
IK
well aired by hanging by the
fire for two days. Movo the patient close to one side of the bed, turn the under sheet over closo to tho Invalid, 'then smooth the mattress, removing anything that may 1® on it. Make roadv the clean sheet, by rolling ouehalf into a round roll, lay this close by the Invalid, spread tho other half smoothly over the bed. Now assist the patient on the clean sheot, unroll and spread over the other side of tho bed.
Have the upper sheot ready, which must be carefully and gentlv laid over the invalid, then add tho other bed-clothes. (In dressing a blistor whero a bandage has to Io placed around tho bodv, roll one-half the bandage, placo It under the invalid, so that the attendant at the other sldo can roach it, unrolling, and placing it around the patient w-ithout disturbing him.) Light blankets are best for coverings. Never use the im-
Jorters.
irevlous cotton counterpanes and comThe clothing should be as light as possible with the requisit warmth. The bod should be low, and placed in the light as a rule the pillows should be low, so as to give the lungs free play. Scrofula is sometimes caused by children sleeping with their heads under the clothing, and patients sometimes acquire the same injurious habit.
Hathing should always
be
done under
the ad vim of a physician, bat soap and water are great restorative*. In most cases, washing and properly drying the akin gives great relief. Care should be taken, while sponging and cleansing, not to expose too great a surface at a time, so aa to check perspiration.
The
physician will regulate the temperature. Sometimes a little vinegar, wbiakv, or alcohol added the water, makes the bath more refreshing, and bav-rom for the face, neck,and hands is often acceptable. Whenever the l)«th Is followed by a mnm of oppression, it has done harm. Its offWH should bo comfort and relief.
Chamber utensil* should be emptied and thoroughly cleansed Immediately after using, and in no case allowed to remain standing in the sick room. Slop TMfcils, into which nothing should be allowed to except the waste water from
the wash ^stand, must be emptied and cleansed thoroughly at least twice a day. It is well for both nurse and patient to remember that nothing relieves nausea or vomiting sooner than drinking hot water in as great quantity and as not as possible. Placing the hands in hot water up to the wrists, a flannel or other cloth, dipped In hot water aud laid five or six folds thick, on any pained part, will relieve suffering more promptly than all the pain-killers in the world. Cover the wet llannel with another dry one, the edges of which extend over the wet one an inch or more. In about five minutes slip the wet flannel out and put in its place another as hot as can be handled, taking care to let as little cold air as possible touch the skin over which the hot flannel has been ap* plied. When pain is relieved, put on towels wet in cool water and cover with flannel leave for an hour or more, remove and wipe dry, rubbing vigorously. These hot applications will often relieve a violent dry cough in a few minutes, and in some forms of croup will cure in half an hour.
Patients are often killed by kindness. A spoonful of improper fooa, or the indulgence of some whim, may prove fatal. A physician's directions should always be observed with the strictest fidelity. Medicines and things which will be wanted during the night should all be prepared before the patient grows sleepy. Everything should be done quickly but quietly, and with precision'. In talking, sit where the patient can see you without turning his head. Never ask questions when he is doing anything, and never learn to sit upon the bed. Sick persons generally prefer to be told anything rather, than to have it read to them. A change in the ornaments of the room is a great relief, and the sick especially enjoy bright and beautiful things. Flowers, which do not have a pungent odor, lire always a great delight.

(In giving a drink or liquid of any kind a mous-tache-cup will be found a great convenience.) The sick can rarely take solid food before eleven in the morning, and a spoonful of beef tea, or whatever stimulant the physician has ordered, given every hour or two, relieves exhaustion. Brandy, whisky, or other alcoholic stimulants, however, should never be ordered in cases where there is a hereditary tendency to uso them or whero they have been used as a beverage, or where Qnie occasions of the patient in the futuue would bo likely to make an acquired taste for them a temptation. In most cases substitutes may readily bo found. Untouched food should never be left at the bedpide. Every meal should be a surprise, and the patient should be left alone while eating. Food for the sick must be of tho bost quality, and neatly and delicately prepared. The cook should do half tlio patient's digesting.

COOKINO MEAT. Juliet Carson.
Unquestionably the broiling and roasting of meat, literally the least economical way of dressing it, presents it in the most palable and wholesome form. Both in broiling and roasting the meat should bo exposed to the direct heat of a clear, hot fire, so that alight crisp crust may bo quickly formed and served to retain tho juices of tho meat in broiling this crust will form close to a hot fire in about thrto minutes for each side of tho meat It roasting, with suitable appliances, tho entire surface of a joint may be browned in fifteen minutes in baking meat in a hot oven, about twenty liunutos will be required. Although baking resembles roasting somewhat, tho rosults aro less desirable, bocauso the hot fat spatters from the meat and burns on the iuterior of the oven, producing unpleasant and unwholesome vapors unless tho oven is very woll ventilated. Slo\y baking, and that accomplished by irregular heat are sources of great waste of nutriment and flavor. To avoid wasto in broiling aud roasting, the fire must be clear, hot and steady, and the meat exposed directly to its neat until its surface is brownod. It may then be set a little away from the tire, but a regular heat must be maintained. All drippings and gravy must bo preserved, ana in broiling meat over tho fire a grooved gridiron must be used to keep the fat from falling on tho coals and blazing up against the uieat. The free circulation of air renders both these methods desirable and very little change takes place in thochemscal constituents of tho flesh. Underdone roasts and broils may be more savory and possibly more nutritious than those well done, but they are less digestive, and consequently less economical, for the economy of food"lies wholly in the nourishment it furnishes the" system. Even after meats are properly cooked the changes of waste continue through all the phases
savory ragouts, sal nils, minces, croquettes and kindred dishes. When unskillful carving is apprehendedj the co«k may diminish the possibilities of disaster by boning the joints, replacing the bonds"with stuffing, afid devoting them to tho soup-pot.
SENSIBLE DRESSING. There is a class of women one meets every dav whose dress is above reproach. They- go "out to walk, not to show their clothes, but to add to their fine stock of health. They look as if they could ait a horse well, and as if they used often the luxury of a bath. They wear thick-aol-ed shoes with low, broad heels, shapely and well-fitting. Their walking and church suits are of cloth, plainly made, but of exquisite fit. Their gloves and bonnet strings are above reproach. The hair well cared for, is prettily waved or curled about the forehead, and worn low, to show the shape of the head—a style that artists love. Unless nature is'niggardly, no false hair is allowable. The bonnet is close and very becoming, and the face is protected by a veil. An ample parasol or umbrella is ready against sun and rain. What fault can the most censorious man find with a coatume like this?

HEART DISEASE Hall's Journal of Health.
When an individual is reported to have died of disease of the heart, we are in the habit of regarding it as an inevitable event, as something which could not have been foreseen or prevented, and it is too much the habit, when persons suddenly fall down dead, to report the heart as the cause this silences all inquiry and investigation, and saves the trouble and inconvenience of pott mortem.

truer report would have a tendency save many lives. It is through a report of disease of the heart that many an opium-eater is let off into the grave, which covers at once his folly and his crime the brandy drinker, too, quietly slides around the corner thus, and is heard of no more in short, this report of disease of the heart is themantleof charity which the politic coroner and sympathetic physician throw around the graves of generous people.
At a scientific congress at Strasbourg, it was reported that of sixty-six persons who had suddenly died, an immediate and faithful post mortem showed that only two persons had any heart affection whatever—one sudden death only in thirty-three, from diseases of the heart. Nine out of sixty die of apoplexy—one out of every seven while forty-six— more than two out of three—died of lung affection, half of them congestion of the lungs—that is, the lungs were so full of blood thev couid not work there was not room for air enough to get in to support life. It is then of considerable practical interest to know some of the common every-day causes of this congestion of the lungs, a diseasefwhich, the figures above being true, kills three times as many persons at snort warning as apoplexy ana heart disease together. Cola feet, tight shoes, light clothing, costive bowels, sitting still until chilled through after having been warmed up by labor or a long, hasty walk going too suddenly from a close heated room, as a lounger, or listener, or speaker, while the body is weakened by continued application, or abstinence, or heated by along address these are the frightful causes of sudden death in the form of congestion of the lungs but which, being falsely reported as disease of the heart, and regarded as a» inevitable event, throw people off their guard, instead of pointing them plainly to the true causes, all of which are avoidable and very easily so, as a general rule, when the minu has once Deen intelligently drawn on thfe Bubject.
THE NIGHT-AIR SUPERSTITION. Dr. Felix L. Oswold, In Popular Science Monthly for March.
Before we can hopejto fight consumption with any chance of success, we have to get rid of the night-air superstition. Like the dread of com water, raw fruit, etc., it is founded on mistrust of our instincts which we owe to our anti-natural religion. It is probably the most prolific single cause of impaired health, even among the civilized nations of our enlightened age, hough its absurdity rivals the grossest delusions of the witchcraft era. The subjection of holy reason to hearsays could hardly go further. "Bewaro of the nightwind be sure and close your windows after dark"! In other words, beware of God's free air be sure and infect your lungs with the stagnant, azotized, and offensive atmosphere of your bedroom. In other words, beware of the rock spring stick to sewerage. Is night-air injurious? Is there a single tenable pretext for such an idea? Since the day of creation that air has been
breathed
with impunity by millions
of different animals—tender, delicate creatures, some of them fawns, lambs and young birds. The moist night-air of the tropical forests is breathed with impunity by our next relatives, the anthropoid apes—the same apes that soon perish with consumption in the close though generally well-warmed atmosphere of our northern menageries. Thousands of soldiers, hunters ana lumbermen sleep every night in tents and open sheds without the least injurious
camping out doors in all but the stormiest nights. Is it the draught you fear, or tho contrast of temperature Blacksmiths and railroad conductors seem to thrive under such influences. Draught Have you never fceen boys skating in the teeth of a snow storm at the rate of fifteen miles rn hour? "They counteract the effect of the cold air by vigorous exercise." Is there no other way to keep warm Does tho north wind damage the fine lady sitting motionless in her sleigh, or tho pilot and helmsman of a storm tossed vessel It cannot be the inclemency of the open air, for even in sweltering summer nights, tho sweet south wind, blessed by all creatures that draw the breath of life, brings no relief to the victim of aerophobia. There is no doubt that families who have freed themselves from the curse of that superstition can live out and out healthier in the heart of a great city than its slaves on the airiest highland of the southern Apennines. __________
A PLEA FOR THE LITTLE FOLKS Don't expect too much of them it has taken forty
3*ears,
it may be, to make
you what you are, with all four lessons of experience and I will dare say you are a fauity being at best. Above all don't expect judgment in a child or patience under trials. Sympathize in their mistakes and troubles aon't ridicule them. Remember not to measure a child's trials by your own standard. "As one who his mother comforteth," ys the inspired writer, and beautifully does he convey the deep, faithful love that ought to be found in every weman's heart, toe unfailing sympathy with all her children's griefs.
Let the memories of their childhood be as bright as you can make them. Grant them every innocent pleasure in your power. We have often felt our temper rise to see how carelessly little plans were thwarted by older persons, when a little trouble on their part would have given the child pleasure, the memory of which would last a lifetime. Lastly, speief betrays some very bad nabita. We have known children that seemed to have been born thieves and liars, so early did they disploy these undesirable traits, but we nave lived to see those same children become noble men, women, and ornaments to society. We must confess they had wise ana affectionate parents. And whatever else yon may be compelled to deny your child by your circumstances in fife, give it what it moat values, plenty of love.
