He will attend to (eaeh symptom as it arises, and his or- 'ders must be scrupulously obeyed. ‘The largest, best-ventilated and sun- ’nicst room in the house should be itaken for the sick room, no matter (who is disturbed thereby. Fresh air' [should circulate through it day and “night, although a cold wind must not blow directly upon the patient. Some ’account should be taken of the suf- 'ferer's condition from hour to hour, and the room should be kept a little cooler when his temperature is high. It was once thought that, because pneumonia so often follows a cold, it was best to keep the patient smother- ed in blankets in a warm room, but we have learned better. If two rooms can be used, it is a good plan to carry the sick person from one to the other, and take that opportunity to ventilate , the vacant room thoroughly. ln- _ are not usually different from those of a severe cold. There is likely to be a chill, followed by a slight rise of temperature, loss of appetite, head- ache, and a cough that raises some mucous expectoration. That is the case when the pneumonia is "prim- ary." In the "seeondarv" cases, when the pneumonia accompanies some other serious illness, all the symptoms may be masked by those) of the original disease, so that the pneumonia is established before any- ‘one has even suspected the fact. i In those cases the patient is al-l' ready under the care of doctor and) nurse, and the pneumonia must bel treated as a complication of the orig-l inal disease.

A Belgian recently ob- tained such a ticket-of-leave, and went to Holland, and then thought he would take the opportunity to see his family in London.

Silk mull, and other soft cottons vie for favor with the more'expensive Ital- ian silk. All of these silks and cot- tons wash excellently and require no ironing.

ARE IS PilE0ICTiyo. Men and women have been crying for bread-the bread of religion. Hu- manity is to-day hunger-ins and thirstine after God. A great controlling motive My is for real religion-the religion of died rather than of creed; the religion of moral character rather than of dog- ma. Religion is a living force, note dead principle. It is something for seven days in the week, and some- thing that affects human conduct every hour of the day. This, we to- day believe. is the religion Jesus stood for-a religion that is fundamental and non-sectarian-ond this, is just the religion that the really civilized and progressive world is looking for. Only now here and there is human- ity preparing to welcome the new old religion of Jesus and the prophets. This religion of deed, of righteous- ness, of character, is the twentieth century electric light type of religion. We have passed through the candle light and gas light stage of the Christian religion. The pressure to. day is toward the electric light of the noonday sun. Idle tradition is no longer allowed to hold sway. Precedents are with- out authority unless they can justify themselves. Only as past tradition or precedent has intrinsic value to- day can it live. We to-day we the breaking up of creeds, because we are at last real- izing that they are mere human state- ments.
