THE -ETHICS OF NURSING.

Suggestions About the Sickroom That Should Be Observed at Any Cost.

First and foremost it is necessary to carry oat to the letter every direction of •the doctor, especially in regard to medicine and diet. Strict obedience to his orders and their careful following out will insure to the patient the best results from -Ms skill. A large, sunny room, if possible, .should be selected for the invalid. The jroom should be kept thoroughly ventilated and at a temperature not lower than 68 degs. or higher than 7C degs. Keep the air the patient breathes as pure as the external air without chilling him.

Keep the upper sash of the window lowered a few inches, avoiding, of course, a draft. Let the patient be well covered and air may be freely admitted without the least danger. Far more persops are killed by the want than by an excess of fresh air.

In giving a person in bed a sponge bath, either for cleanliness or to lower the temperature in fever, be sure not to uncover too large a surface at once. Pin a soft shawl, warm, but not too heavy, around the shoulders, fastening it at the back and remove the nightdress under that. Put the hand under the shawl and sponge the skin, a little at a time, being very careful §ot to have the sponge too wet, and dry with a towel. Proceed this way until the whole body is bathed.

The teeth should be washed with a small piece of clean rag dipped in fresh cool •water.

A woman's hair should be combed every day if she can stand it without too much fatigue. If allowed to go fi#m day to day it becomes so matted that it is almost impossible to disentangle it. Braided in two braids it is far more comfortable than when arranged in one, for each braid can be drawn well to one side, avoiding the hard ridge one braid sometimes makes, and •which becomes very tiresome to lie upon.

If, unfortunately, the hair becomes tangled, a little sweet oil will loosen it and render it more easily combed. Use a coarse comb, combing gently downward from a point near the ends of the hair and gradually approaching the head at each movement. This will remove all the loose hairs without needless pulling.

Be particularly neat and precise regarding the clcunlincss of the sickroom. Do cot, however, make the mistake of using a feather duster, as this only .transfers the dust from one place to another instead of removing it entirely. The furniture and "woodwork should be wiped with a damp cloth. If there is a carpet in the room brush it lightly each day with a broom slightly wetted to keep the dust from rising in the air.

Should the patient be allowed to eat fruit, a few grapes or an orange peeled and divided may bo kept on a plate over a bowl of ico. The coolness thus obtained causes tho fruit to be much more grateful to the palate. To obtain cracked ico without unnecessary pounding and in the presence of the invalid, wrap a small lump in a folded towel and use along stout pin to break off tho pieces. If the point is pressed firmly near the edge of the block fragments can bo easily separated.

In preparing a meal for any one whose appetite is delicate caro should be taken to make it look as enticing as passible. Tho tray should bedecked out in its snowiest, daintiest cover. The glass, silver and china should absolutely shine, while the repast itself should consist of a few choice bits not a large portion of each viand, but each delicately and temptingly served.

There is nothing that so quickly disgusts a feeble appetito as a quantity of food presented at one time.

Above all, do not worry the patient regarding what he shall eat or drink. Propare something ho is known to like and of •which the doctor approves without any previous comment. It is your duty to think for your charge. Anticipate his wants before ho has had time to express them.

Do not fidget him with questions regarding whether he is too hot or too cold, "whether he prefers beef tea chicken broth for his luncheon.—Philadelphia Times. now to 1I«lp tho Doctor.

A well known doctor once complained to the writer that he had the greatest trouble •when treating sick children in getting any lucid and helpful resume of their symptoms from day to day from the mother. "Here is a case in point," said he. "A few days ago a young mother came to me about her little boy, who had what she called a *pathetio little cough.' Mow pathos in a cough is a symptom of which pathology takes no note. So I asked more definite particulars. 'What kind of a cough is itf' I asked again. 'Oh, such a pathetic cough,' she answered. 'But is it a loose cough, or a wheeling cough, or a tight cough, or a bark cough t' I persisted.

Tm sure I don't know,' she said, sadly puxsled, 'but it is a sad little cough.' And that is a fair sample of the way a great an any physicians find themselves puzzled about babies. The mothers or nurses seem to have so little skill in interpreting their symptoms."

Women and mothers, this thing ought not to be. A young mother with a first baby may find herself a little puzzled for the first few weeks to recognize the most striking symptoms in a baby's illness, but she ought soon to be able to make a very intelligent diagnosis of ordinary ills. She ought to be able to tell whether the baby is in acute pain or not, and in most cases where the pain is located whether his cry is a tired cry or a hungry one or a sick one. She ought to be able to take his temperature and his pulse beats as accurately as a physician, to discriminate his coughs and bis way of breathing. The condition of his bowels should be significant to her also, and even of his skin. These are all matters that come with a little attention in watching and a little knowledge in inter prefcation and brains.—St. Louis Gtobelemocrat.

Th« Mother* of Strong Men.

Dr. S. Weir Mitchell, one of the highest authorities In the world on nerrous diseases and a profound student of I!fo» regard* women as the physical trustees of the race, and says that cultivation of the brain at the expense of the body is an ln» tlmnhlc evil to future generations. "Nature has her seasons of restaad her seasons of productiveness," the famous physician once said. "The soil after harvest lies fallow for a year or two or it loses its richloess* You never knew a great man—«

S^lBSSSl

mr.n of powerful brain and masterful energy, I mean—born of a weak woman. Superiority ^and strength of mind in men come almost invariably from the mother. The father may transmit traits as he often transmits weaknesses, but the mind of the male child almost always derives its real force from the mother. If she have a strong character, sterling virtues and has lived a simple, healthy life, her son will reap the richer harvest of vital and mental strength, because neither has been exhausted by the mother. The father's character is apt to reappear in the daughters."'

The view is one of such interest and importance that every one will find something in his or her own experience and observation that will bear upon it. The thought back of it is that women should be educated and their minds cultivated, but neither overeducated, as at some female colleges, nor overcultivatedor overstrained by work or society that theirs lives should be so ordered that a surplus of mental and physical strength should be stored as the ground derives fruitfulness and stores future wealth by lying fallow and producing nothing for a time.—New York Press. Vf

Working Women and Their Place Today.

The proportion of women whose daily lot is hard labor of some kind or other is not greater now than it has been in other periods. On the contrary, it is probably smaller. But at no former time has the wage earning woman been so distinct a social and economic factor. Woman's work was formerly hedged in very closely by domestic conditions. Her life was apart ot the life of some family, and as an unattached industrial unit she was practically nonexistent.

Newer conditions have obviously changed *11 this, and every city has its army of young working women seeking an independent livelihood, just as it has its larger army of young men. The army of young workingmen in great towns—young men wholly unattached and fighting the battle of life upon their individual resourceshas not been very long recognized as a distinct social element, and one for which peculiar povision should be made. But its recognition has been more general, and there has been better provision made for it than for the other army of young working women.

Yet the position of the young woman is much the mole difficult. The kinds of work open to women are not half so numerous as those that young men can enter. And women's wages average little more than half as much as their brothers. The practical difficulties in the way of procuring employment are especially great for young women, and conventional obstacles lie everywhere. The rights, the needs, the wants of working girls call for agitation and for organized action. And in many ways the movement has begun.—Albert jShaw in Scribner's.

How to Cure a Nervous Headache.

You know that means a nervous headache and a night of agony unless something is done quickly.

Try this: Slip off your bodice and bare your neck. Twist your hair into a loose knot on the top of your head. Then take a sponge and a basin of hot water—just as hot as you can bear it.

Pass the hot wet sponge slowly and steadily over the face and forehead for eight or ten minutes, keeping the sponge as hot as it can be borne. By that time your face will look and feel as if. it were parboiled. But don't worry.

Then bathe the back of the neck as you have done the face, carrying the sponge each time well up the back of tho head.

Keep this up for the same length of time then, without looking at yourself in the glass, because that would be sure to disquiet you, dry your face and neck softly and go and lie down flat on your back.

Close your eyes and think of just this" one thing, How heavy you are on the couch and how easily it supports you. That is really an important part of the cure.

Lie there for half an hour, if you don't fall asleep, as you probably will. Then get up and take the deferred look in the glass.

The tired look has gone tho muscles have regained their tone the wrinkles havo disappeared. You look like your younger sister. Best of all, the darting pain in the head and the pessimism of the soul have gone too.—Boston Herald.

What Next In .Woman's Societies?

Woman's societies will reach their highest goal when the prefatory "woman's" is discarded. Exclusive organization on the part of one sex has reached the extreme where the upward turn now leads back, on the line of malo inclusions—meaning simply the union of husbands and wives in the common cause of benefiting humanity. Doubtless thousands of busy men today, apathetic regarding general human welfare, would bound to their place at the wheel if appealed to by wives converted to the new mission and needing brawny aid. The best way to disarm an opponent is to throw the cause on his hands, appealing for his support.

Let such titles as "Woman's Suffrage association" give place to the "United Societies for Woman's Franchise."

There is no fear but that the modest source from which all these benefactions have sprung will be ever and gratefully remembered.

But in the full realization of social reforms accomplished only by the additior. of man's effective power, women working for that end can well afford to relinquish" the initiatory which at most can no more than propose a higher mission for them and a new progress for all.—Margaret W. Noblo in Chautauquan.

"Fluffy" Girls and Their Ways.

A young man, speaking of a girl to a matron of his acquaintance, recently said: "Oh, she's one of those fluffy girls." "My dear boy," said the matron,

,4what

on earth is a fluffy girlf" "Why, don't you know?" replied the young man. "A girl who has blue eyes, golden hair, brilliant coloring and looks like a bit of Dresden china. A girl who is always hitched up in a big armchair and has a plaintive little tale of woe to confide to yon—not to you, my dear madam, but to me, to some man. The girl who wears charming gowns, all frills and ribbons, and hopelessly intricate to masculine eyes who is always delightfully clean, with fresh curled hair who affects certain pecfumes has curious gestures and modes of expression who wears tinkling ornaments at her wrists and quantities of rings on her fingers who abounds in parasols, fans .and shawls, which we men carry trailing Humbly about in tier wake. This is the fluffy girl, fcnd, my de&r lady, long experience with her has taught me that she usually possesses a temper as fluffy as her gown. "—Hartford Times.

Potatoes an Aid In Washing* To wash clothes without fading them, wash and peel Irish potatoes then grate them into cold water. Saturate the articles to be washed in tills potato water, and they can then be washed with soap

without any running of the color. I have taken oil out of carpets with this potato water when simple cold water would make the color run ruinously. Hav^p also set the

color

in figured black muslins, in colored merinos, in ribbons and other silk goods. Often the potato water cleanses sufficiently without thd use of soap but the latter is necessary, I find, where there is any grease. In such cases (without soap) I take the grated potato itself and rub with a flannel rag.! In woolen goods it is necessary to strain the water, else the particle^ adhere, but this is not necessary on goods from which tfiey can well be shaken.—Cor. Detroit Free Press.

That 'there is not much sanitary

Fashionable bed dressing having vetoed pillow shams, housekeepers owning a supply of thiese squares hkve sought various methods to utilize them. One woman turned her fine pair of hemstitched linen and embroidered "covers" into tea cloths by adding some gay little buds and {tansies in natural colors. She might easily have left them all white, since such tea cloths are equally used for the permanent 5 o'clock tea table as for the occasional one.

Another woman converted some of hex pretty ones into show pillow slips by adding a plain side. She kept one pillow thus incased on the family sitting room lounge, "of which," she said, "we are all so fond that it is seldom vacant, and its stuff pillow cover was difficult to keep clean."— Her Point of View in New York Times.

A Practical Suggestion.

One of the most practical suggestions for service is that of the woman who comes into work "by the day." There is very much more in this idea of daily service or of employing .a woman who, in common parlance,- '-'does day's' work," than has ever been fully developed. Washing and scrubbing are at "present' the principal duties of such workers. But these, alj though they represent the hardest labor, cover only a small part of the doily housework.

The sweeping and dusting, the sewing, the cooking, the dish washing, the "clearing up"—most interminable of tasks—the mending and the chamber work—all these come into the home life and into the line of a housekeeper's duties.—Harper's Bazar.

Color of the Bridal Dress.

Married in black, you will wish yourself back. Married in red, you will wish yourself dead.

Married in green, ashamed to be seen. Married in blue he will Always be true. Married in pearl, you will live in a whirl. Married in yellow, ashamed of your fellow.

Married in brown, you will live out ot town. Married In pink, your spirits will sink.— Old Rhyme.

How to Sharpen a Carving Knile.

A carving knife needs to have a different kind of an edge from a razor. The steel which ordinarily accompanies a carving knife and fork is very well to give a finish" ing touch to the edge, but an ordinary whetstone, such as a reaper uses for his scythe or sickle, is the most useful implement a' carver can keep at hand. One or two rubs on each side of a knife whets it up mightily, and then two or three finishing touches from the steel and the knife is in order to' do most excellent execution.—New York Telegram.

Materials for Children's Dresses.

In regard to the material to be used for the clothing of infants a well known physician believes that it should be soft, and as light in weight as possible. For those who can afford it, the flannel made from silk and Wool, costing a dollar a yard and upward, or an eiderdown flannel for delicate children, is recommended. In lower priced materials Canton flannel is suggested, as it is soft and warm and does not aTirinfc much in washing.—New York Post.

Advice for Floriculturists.

The women gardeners of England bave been wonderfully successful in floriculture. Mrs. Chamberlain, who has had much practical experience in this matter, gives the following excellent advice: "If you are going to grow for sale devote all your best efforts to growing in perfection something for which there is a demand. Don't spare pains to find this art, and remember that fashion rules the florist to nearly the same extent that it*does the modiste."

American and English Women.

The average American woman, it has been repeatedly said, suffers from nervous exhaustion caused by the hurried, spasmodic way in which she does her work. She lacks the cool, systematic method of her English sister and the phlegmatic temperament of the German woman.

In the 8tuthwestern islands of Japan the women are the laborers. Their hands are rough and tanned with heavy work, while the hands of the men are delicate and white. The men play the samisen while the women dance, but it is considered a disgrace for the women to play. j.-

Dean Swift proposed to tax female loveliness, and to have each lady rate her own charms, saying "the tax would be cheerfully paid and prove very productive."

strengthening influence in the operation ot dusting is evident, and yet many women, fh's^airimg heavier work, reserve this domestic duty for themselves and waste much time upon it. Muscular motion is of little value unless vigorous and swift. The slow walk and loitering movement do not rouse the blood from its torpidity. The lowliest labor when zealously performed 'may be followed by an unexpected hygienic effect. There is the jy?tance of a pannilPM young man, threatened with fever in a strange country, shipping as a deck hand to return and die among hia people.

other tools, "it is a care

fully graded system of manual training— "educational carpentering" one might call it. By itpupils are taught how to use theit hands skillfully and usefully and how to make measurements by the eye. Incidentally, too, it inculcates thoroughness, care, industry and perseverance, by means

oi

which only can the highest success be achieved. The Slojd idea was conceived in Sweden, -and-has proved wonderfully successful there. In fact, so enthusiastic are the

Swedes as to the benefits to be derived from a course in Slojd that a wealthy gentleman named Abrahamson has devoted -his own charming villa and estate at Naas, near Gothenburg, to be used as a Slojd academy.

Teachers from points as far separated a& Holland, Iceland, Chili and the United States here meet during the summer months to learn for themselves the merits of the system. Among the first to go from this city in 18S7, and at her own expense, was Dr. Emily Ida Conant, professor ot pedagogy at the Normal college. After a course of six weeks, during which she worked for six hours every day at the bench and listened to lectures on the theory, she returned to America thoroughly imbued with the merits of the Slojd system as an educational factor in tho development of children.

Another trip to Sweden' confirmed the first impression, and after several conferences with a committee from the board of education it was decided to establish such a class in the Normal college for such of the graduates as could secure a scholarship.

Twelve, young women have, attained the proud distinction, and, now the. Misses Baum, Beattie, Bole, Burlinson. Gilbert. Kornman, Levine, Meehan, Moore. Rhoades, Silberburg and Wittkowski are fitting themselves to teach manual train' ing when the long coveted trade schools shall be established as apart of the public school system.

IN THE WORKIiOOM.

I spent a deliightful morning with thefjfi young women recently, and found them very proficient in dovetailing, doweling and aU the other ordinary operations of carpentering.

Each girl wore a large gingham apron and began operations by arranging the tools on the framework in front qf her. neatly hanging the cross, rip and back saws to the left and the jack aud smooth planes to the right, while the divider, file, ruler, knife and marking gauge were safely stored in the lower rack. The place of honor was given to the drawing board, upon which was safely secured thd draw ing of the model under consideration. These drawings are made in pen aud ink from the object itself by accurate measure ment and serve as working diagrams.

One-half the class was completing tho ban die of a knife sharpener of soft, white wood, thejother.had started upon a hydrometer, wrnch is designed to measure the hydraulic pressure of liquids, both designs being entirely utilitarian in character, all articles of luxury being excluded from the course.

Passing from one bench to another I noticed with pleasure the rare grace and real dexterity displayed in the manipulation of the tools. I wouldn't be so rash as to say that the girls worked more effectively than the boys would have done, but I am very sure that they worked much more prettily.

There was no clumsiness displayed any where. No girl cut her linger, or scraped the skin off, or hit her thumb with a ham mer instead of a nail and used naughty words to relieve her feelings, o^ did any of the awkward things that boys would have done under similar circumstances. And neatness and tidiness prevailed everywhere. It was'evident that the girls took genuine delight in the work, and what people, big or little, like they generally do well.

After poring over books and storing the memory with as many dry facts as it will hold, this carpentering must form a delightful relaxation. For that reason, if for no other, 1 should think that it ought to be encouraged. But in addition to that it has a genuine educational value. It brings into play the very faculties that are too much neglected in the routine work of the educational treadmill -5'

GOOD TRAINING.

Dr. Conant, when beingasked his views as to the direct value of a course in Slojd upon a child, said: "It undoubtedly implants a respect and love for work even of .the coarser kind. It fosters order, cleanliness and care and encourages attention, industry and perseverance. One principle of Slojd insists that the pupil must do the work alone, the teacher simply leading and controlling, and hence this training must have a marked influence on char acter."

Presently the 'gong sounded and the hour was over. Each model was carefully put away, the music of saw and plane wan drowned in the hum of voices and rippling laughter.

During the few minutes of recreation that ensued the fair carpenters were full ot animation, and many a jest and pun wad tossed to and fro. The sharp edges of the tools had not blunted their wits nor their appetites, as was shown by the sandwiched they consumed.

Doffing aprons and sleeves they crossed the hallway and entered the bright little kitchen fully equipped for the concocting of toothsome edibles. Mrs. Hope, tutor of the culinary department-, welcomed them, and each girl donned a fetching white cap and apron anddemurely listened to a treatise on the merits of cooking rice in the "double boiler," written by a member of the class. That concluded they followed 'out the instructions of Mrs. Hope and prepared for the broiling of chops and scram' bling of eggs, and the making of chocolate.

Verily the world moves. Here were girls who, besides absorbing more or less valuable knowledge concerning all the educatjrmul "ologies" and "isms," were actually laming how todo useful work with theif hands—and cook.

Professional or Married Life for Women.

Dr. Arabella Konealy, a well known London physician, is credited with the following: "Women should not attempt to carry on a profession after marriage. I mean the women of the upper and middle classes who go into the professions. It is not necessary that they should be the breadwinners that duty should devolve upon the husband, and I am confident that the rising generation would be healthier and stronger in every way if the mothers would exert themselves less, [t "I look anxiously at every' baby that comes under my notice in the hope that I shall find some improvement in the type, some increase in stamina, compared with the generation that has preceded it, but instead of this there is only steady deterioration observable. This deterioration is particularly noticeable among the children of very active mothers. The cleverest and most highly educated women, the women who take the most active part in public affairs, have the most weakly and puny children. Another thing, women are going into too active forms of exercise. "When a young married woman tells me that she is captain of a cricket eleven or a football team, I can only say I am perfectly aghast. Women must place before themselves the alternative, to earn their living, to exercise their faculties, and to gratify their ambitions in a professional career or to become good wives and mothers, and if they choose the domestic life they must recognize that they must sacrifice their personal happiness and ambition in the future happiness and success of their children."
