Only a few years ago one suffering Iron consurnplion was thought to be incurably ill, and doomed to a death which, although perhaps slow, was in. eviteble. elation' scientific knowledge has changed all that, It Is now known that tuberculosis taken in time is guile •amenable to treatment, and Indeed often ,gets well of itself without any speelnu 'effete on the part of patient or physician. The modern treatment Is mainly oli- •ntcUe, that Is to say, a removal, if pos. sible, to some part of the world where the climatic conditions afire Such that the patient can pass most of his time 4n the open air. But if this were all that Is needed the question would be n much more simple ono than IL really le. It is indeed the main, but not the .only thing. ll is desirable also that the plate of residence of the consumptive shall bo dry, sunny, and free from high winds and dust. Whether it shall be in the mountains or near sea -level., In the so- called temperate zone or in the tropics, is a halter to be determined by circum- stances. Some persons prefer warns air to cold; others suffer from hent and feel well in cold weather. Naturally the patient's inclinations are to be consulted in such a case, for it would be cruel and disastrous lo send a lover et the tropics to winter in Minnesota, and equally cruel to compel a snowbird to live in elle Vest Indies. A climate that will bo beneficial fel ono stage of the disease may he harm- ful in another, Elevated regions, for example, are suitable as a rule only 'or cases u1 consumption in the early stages and may aggravate the condition al a later stage, when the paitent has had one or more hemorrhages. At a very advanced stage no climate, however ideal, will compensate for the fatigue and dangers of a long journey, and home is the only place. But after all that can be said for the climatic treatment of consumption, lee main thing is the open air, and that one can got without the trouble and expanse of travel by simply keeping windawe open day and night, It Is harder to fol. low out tete open•air treatment in a large city than It is in Colorado or southern California or Jamaica, but it can be dente and no ono need forego its bene• fits while there aro windows in walls, or while there is space in which to pitch a Lent,—Youth's Companion. FOR THE IIOME NURSE. The home nurse should have fresh, clean washgowns, but without enough ete starch lo melee them rattle. They should t;f clear the floor by several inches. Her v shoes should be the list shoes worn ry nuns—at least they should have rubber heels. Her hair should be simply and very nealiy arranged, and her hands r should be exquisitely cared for. Creaking shoes, rustling papers, loud whisperings and similar nerve-racking sounds are more disturbing to the aver- age sufferer than the clanging of the passing car bells or the rattle and roar of near -by trains. Don't allow loud talking, gloomy or weepy visitors near the patient. Don't sigh, frown and scold If things don't ggo ye you wish them to, and above all, be cheerful without being loquacious. A low voice, a serene, "unfussy" manner, and a pleasant smile are three blessed y y a!tributes for the nurse, amateur or otherwise. The patient's bed should be a high ,and narrow iron cot, if possible, as it le much easier for doctor mid nurse to handle the patient than It would be on a low, bend bed. The sick room should If possible he ti In a quiet part of the house, and ad- joining a bathroom. If there is an open Ore and coal has to be put on, wrap the coals in pieces of paper or in paper l .. bilge, and lay them on the flee instehd o, shovelling in tho usual way. This will save a great deal .of, ea' -ranking Quiet, cheerfulness, and cleanliness are the three essentials that the home nurse should take as her watchwords. 0 VICTORIA'S ACCESSION.

Reviving a thousand -year-old Indus try, a band of capitalists and scientists or England are going to introduce a formidable competition into the paper- making of butt the United States and Great Britain. These men won't care whether the forests of the world are in the hands of a paper trust or not; lot' they are going to manufacture news and book as well as wallpaper and kind- red articles out of papyrus. The papyrus farms will be in Egypt. The cultivation of this plant has bean extinct for over 1,000 years. The papy- rus reeds, at first, will be brought to England and made Into pulp in an English mill until su0icient trade has been worked up. Then the papyrus syndicate will build its 'own mills in Egypt and ship lite pulp. H. E. Winter, secretary of the new- ly -foamed papyrus syndicate, in an in- terview gave ninny interesting details, "Twenty million dollars worth of pa - pet alone is made in .England annually. We shall produce a better quality r 1 paper and sell it at a much cheaper price. The present sources of supply for the paper trade aro being used up rapidly. Only recently Norway had to legislate to prevent the depletion of its forests. Canada and the United Stales will soon follow suit. "We have for some years been work. ing an our scheme. Smedley Norton, the author and explorer, was commis- sioned to revive the seventh century papyrus reed. The Nile gross, common- ly known as papyrus, is not the real thing. Mr. Norton discovered some Inc papyrus seeds in remote parts cf Syria and Palestine near the River ,Tor- dan and Sea of Galilee and cultivation was begun. "We have now an immense trust cf land situated on the Nile in Egypt. C. R. Clarke, the botnninal expert of Kew Gardens, has certified that our plants are the real papyrus. After exhaustive experiments, Dr. Querin Weiriz, con- sulting chemist and analyst to the Pa- permakers' Association of Great Britain, has eradiated the most admirable pulp. A committee of exports has outlined for us all the methods of cultivation and paper manufacturing and we are now going ahead. Papyrus grows In water from seven to ten feet high. We gather three crops a year. Our land is h'- rlgaled by the Nile and is only plowed every five years, "We will begot manufacture of paper ie the spring when we will have 100,- 000 Ions of papyrus ready for the market. Experiments have proved that the yield of papyrus pulp, after bleach- jng, 4s much larger than esparto pulp and exceedingly strong. We expect to use it for the manufacture of all the things now being made out of paper. Our propeettion.IS one which wheaten( a tremendous revelation in the paper trade," • THE ART OF GLOVE -CUTTING. The cutters of the great glove hooses in Brussels and in France earn even higher wages than the cullers of the most fashionable sailers in London and New York. So difficult is this art ',1 cutting gloves that most of the princi- pal cutters aro 'known to the trade by name and by fame, and the peculiar knives which they use in the business ere so uglily prized that they are hand- ed down from generation to generation as heirlooms.

One of the most impressive cures of Indigestion and allied ailments ever reported has just been effected by 1311 - eats. The subject is far. Arthur 11. Hand, the prominent artist teacher of painting on china, leather, glass, etc,. residing at 2 Woodgreen Place, Toron- to, As a leacher of painting, Mr, Hand has made for himself a wide reputa- tion, but his work was interfered with considerably by acute attacks of diges- tive disorder. Ifo says: "I suffered agonies for months pre- vious to taking Bileans, resorted to all kinds of remedies, but found only tem- porary relief. The indigestion carne on quite suddenly, soon after eating, and caused me tenable pain. There was n constant feeling of uncomfortable full- ness in the stomach, pains in the chest and under the shoulder blades and rifl- ing and belching of gas. I had constipation so badly that no medicines seemed to have any effect on the bowels. I dieted a great deal, but the slightest food brought the same dis- tress. After taking a few Bilenns I ex- perlenced ease and comfort atter meals, sc I purchased a supply of this vege- table remedy and lett all outer remedies aloha. Means cured me. Now my food digests very nicely and my bowels acl quite naturally. "in a few months, through lite use of Beans, my weight increased from 125 lc 105 pounds.
