Only I33 nurses can thus be endowed for the whole of Canada, and of these her la- dyship's announcement says that sixty will be needed in Manitoba and the northwest, leaving seventy three for the rest of Can- ada. But in addition to these endowed nurses the announcement holds out vague hopes of the establishment of training schools for nurses, the building of cottage homes (thirty or forty in the northwest alone). the provision for the sick poor in cities of free nurses working without fees, of others to work tor small fees in homes of moderate means, and other objects as to which it is absolutely impossible that the sum asked for can provide any of them.

Selfishnesa and ignorance are at the root of the strained relations between mistress and sorvnnt, and if we had more of the spirit of Christ manifested in our homes. the relations between us and our work- womon would be smoother, but Frailty. thy mine is woman (though frailty is not conned to woman). and the sooner we mistresses try to work out the servant roblem by beginning with ourselves the tter:.-A.C.M.

These are some of the ways lady Aberdeen has tried. and succeeded too in elevating the servants.

Canada and Britain are clilferent in climate and in tem- perature, but as far as people think them- selves are concerned and their relations as mistresses and servants they are alike. Wh is it that servants prefer outside war to house work '3 How can we change it! Is the mistress to blame? Has the servant any cause for complaint 2 Has the spirit in which we approach a. servant any claim on our attention or are we to look on her as a piece of goods to be got at the lowest market value ! The answer to this question modifies considerably our ideas of the relations between the parties. In it not generally put thus : 1 wish a servant; I can get her for so much; she is bargained for; she does not full her stipulations; then off she goes. Now if all are not pro- fessing chrisuans this is probably consistent enough, but nearly all in our community are probably real christians. Is is not the case that next to our family comes the "stranger that is within our gates? Does not history tell us that the vassals always had their claims and have we not often seen the greatest consideration evidenced on both sides? Astory is told of John Brown, the queen s confident attendant, that on one occasion. rain coming on sud- denly, he put a cloak around princess Beatrice and on her demurring he said, But ye maun hne`t, Beatrice.
