Sickrooms. 



A medical journal urges, sensibly 

 enough, that in the present extravagant 

 expenditure in house building a little 

 money should be laid out in arranging 

 for a sickroom, built on the sunny side 

 and equipped with at least the simple 

 means for isolation and care of a sick 

 person. Ventilation should be well con- 

 sidered. The walls may be of washable 

 material — paint tiles or covered with 

 waterproof bath paper. The plumbing 

 should be out of but convenient to it. 

 A little of the time and money invested 

 in libraries, ballrooms and oriental par- 

 lors spent on an apartment whose use in 

 an emergency not unusual to frail hu- 

 manity may insure the comfort and 

 safety to the family that is necessary to 

 the enjoyment of the more luxurious 

 rooms. 



English Women's Shoes. 



English women are teaching Ameri- 

 can women some important facts about 

 footgear. We know today that a touch 

 of patent leather removes the shoe from 

 street use, except in case of walking to 

 and from afternoon teas and luncheons. 

 That only seal or calf skin suits the pave- 

 ments; that low shoes are to be reserved 

 for summer wear; that spats are not 

 goo'd form, except for men, and that 

 laced shoes are the smart thing for the 

 forenoon. 



Health and Morality. 

 He who recklessly injures his health 

 does not prove his unselfishness — he 

 simply curtails his powers of doing 

 good. And he who injures his character 

 by wejcoiuing evil influences is thereby 

 inflicting a still greater evil upon the 

 community. — Exchange. 



Burns and Scalds. 



A remedy for scalds and burns that one 

 woman has used successfully for years is 

 compounded as follows: Mix thoroughly 

 equal parts of raw linseed oil, limewater 

 and laudanum. Keep this mixture tightly 

 corked, label it "poison" and set it on the 

 top shelf of the most out of the way closet, 

 so that inquisitive children will not get 

 hold of it. It makes an excellent dressing, 

 affording speedy relief from pain. Keep a 

 soft linen cloth saturated with the mix- 

 ture closely over the burn, excluding the 

 air. Shake before using. — Washington
