After the reading of the repo corporation treasurer.Mrs. C. W. \ [> Warner remarked that in the Par j v j a y S „f the club's existence its business» side was very important and prominent as the question of a club h ome was a crying one. But since we j iavP owned our house and have had an P ffi ( .ient Isvdy of managers to attend to h s interests the majority of club meru h CM especially the new ones, have little knowledge or interest in that important side of club life, and the board of director, desiring to awaken such an interest ap rt of the Weldin, pointed a committee of five, consisting 0 f Airs, A. D. Warner, Mrs. L. C. Vando grift. Mrs. J. Ernest Smith, Mrs. C. Wesley Weldin and Mrs. Charles 1. Kent to keep d, e subject before the club at suitable times. The board of directors have been a (de to steadily decrease the indebtedness „f t i 1P corporation from its original sum „j a jiffiuOO mortgage and S3,000 of floal m g debt, besides purchasing additional g roun d for $1.000 to its present sum of s,| 1.400,but bs the club is now about entering on its 18th year they feel it is time to go farther and put the stock on a dividend-paying basis, which «'ould be possible when it shall have been reduced to $10,000. With the hope of hastening this desirable state they trust the prêtent stockholders will feel like increasing their holdings, as all stock purchased goes to the reduction of t he mortgage. In the intervals of votu the annual report of the ' ings was read by the corresponding secre tary and directed to be printed in the club's year book. Mrs. Danby, chairman of the civic committee, gave notice of the meeting at 8 p. m.. on June 4th at the clubhouse to be addressed by Dr. Flick and Talcott Williams in the interest of a "White List" of goods made under healthful conditions.

Mrs. Dun ning and her husband were saved from being crushed by falling debris by a folding bed, which partially closed and protected them. The shaking, she said, V ll seemed to continue for minutes, instead She and her husband fled of seconds, from the falling building in their night clothes. There was not a room in the house that Dunning said she saw an entire block of 16 stone houses wrecked and in the yard of one there were four bodies which had been taken from the ruined houses. The streets were almost impassable because of the accumulation of debris with difficulty that one walked through them. A row of shanties she saw broken into pieces and thrown to the ground.

The invalid's bed mu-f he made nith great care, as it may lieeomo displaced easily by restless movements and even a small wrinkle will irritate the weak out ferer. The. mattress should l>e of hair and the sheets large, Turk Hie lower sheet firmly under Imth lop and Isiltniu of the mettre»». Fold an extra sheet double lengthwise and lay it across the bed with the tipper end just touching the pillows and the end drawn lightly under the matt res» at the sides. Some, nurses like two mattresses, » common one under the hair mattress, and in this ease the extra slice! can he pushed lintily liotween the two at the sides. This extra sheet will not wrinkle easily and can he changed «ithout trouille. Il is sometimes called the draw sheet. Fold the upper edge of the spread under the blankets before turning the sheet down at tho top. In this way the bed is kept in order more easily. The linen on an invalid's bed must always be changed evety two or tliree days and sometimes once a day. Every thing that is needed must bn well aired m the sun or by heat and then laid where the hand will reach it without going »cress the room. Move the patient as far as possible to one side of the bed, untuck the under sheet and cross sheet and push them toward the middle of the bed. Have a sheet ready rolled the long way and lay it on the mattress, unfolding it enough to tuck in at the side. Have the cross sheet folded as described and roll it, also laying it over the under one and tucking it in, keeping the unused portion of both etill rolled Move the patient gently over to tho side already prepared, draw away the soiled sheets anti unroll the clean ones and tuck them in on the other side. The need not be removed while the coverings sheets are being changed or the invalid exposed to the air. To change the upper sheet take off the spread and lay the clean sheet over the blanket and pin to the bed at the top of each aide with a large pin, like a safety pin. Stand at the foot of the bed and draw out the blanket and soiled sheet. Lay the blanket quickly back in position, put on t he spread, roll it under the edge of the blanket, turn down the top ot the sheet after taking out the pins and the bed will be in perfect order and the invalid will not have been fatigued. Change tho pillow cases last. TO CHANOB THE BODY LINEN OF AN IN VALID. Have the fresh garments well aired and close at hand. Draw the arma out of the garment, slip the clean one over the head and by the same movement draw it down and'remove the other one at the feet. BATHING AN INVALID IN BED. Do not uncover loo large a portion the surface of the hotly at once. Pin a large blanket round the shoulders, using safety pins and fastening it behind. Re move tho night dress under the blanket It is well to have a blanket tinder the patient, also. Put tho hand under the nia tiket and sponge the skin, a small part at a time, taking care lo have the sponge squeezed nearly dry. Dry with a towel, then sponge another portion. an invalid's hair A woman's hair should he romhed gently every day and be kept plaited in two braids. Use a coarse comb and if the hair is badly entangled a little aweei oil rublied in «ill loosen it and make it eomb easily, comb «ilh a sofl cloth. Wipe llie teeth of the MARINO AN INVAUO COM .-OUT A SI.F.. Keep the cross sheet in the l-ed free from crumbs. Brush it utter each meal ami pull it straight occasionally. If the patient lie- loo long in one position, red oes- or indication of l>ed »ore« will come and these «pila must he sponged off with alcohol, then thoroughly dried and dilated with oxide of zinc. When a person is loo ill to sit up, a glass drinking tulie is invaluable for giving nourishment of food. Keep worry and everything excitable, like loud talk ing visitors, out of tlie sick-room. Keep the spread smooth on the bed and if the blanket or garment is laid over tho foot of the bed. see that it is straight. The hearty well person may see nothing in these apparent trifles, but one who baa ever been severely ill can readily recall bow much vitality she used up in imagin ary smoothing of wrinkles or straighten ing of window shades, oiling doors or lOo and 26 o bottle.
