t' . A CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL . .
A well-to-do southern woman some time ago gave
$25,000 to the hospital in her community for the con
struction arid equipment of a modern, homelike child
ren's ward. When it was said to be finished she went
to see it She was disappointed. All she saw Avas a
regular children's ward with plain walls and white beds?
She exclaimed: v ' ,-. :
"Why this is just like a hospital ! It smells like a
hospital."
To which attendant replied that that was natural
enough, since it was a hospital. ' ;
The woman wrote another check for $5,000 and sup
erintended the spending of it herself. Her work in the
children's ward was finished the other day. And this
is the descrirjtion of that hotel room now:
The 40 plain white beds have become 40 gaily de- j
corated slumber places, ine wans ot tne room are
painted a restful gray; broken here and there with
designs and pictures interpreting the eternally loved
fairy tales' and imrsery rhymes. Even the electric fans
did not escape the paint brush. They now hint soma
how of bouquets of roses There fare simple but pretty
curtains at ine windows, and there are beds of flowers
0 flower boxes just outside the windows through Nvhich
a pleasant fragrance comes; And all about are toys and
games suitable for convalescent little folks.
It is of course necessary that a hospital ward be
easily Kept, clean and that it be so arranged and equip
ped, that the patients can be taken care of with little
fuss'bf delay?-; But it appears quite possible to relieve
the. barren appearance formerly inevitable in hospitals.
And the cheerfulness supplied by attractive surroundings
helps almost as much in restoring health as do the
medicines and nursing.
! A GUNLESS GOLD RUSH
Disarmament has got around to gold-prospecting.
There is a gold stampede to the Cassiar district, in
northern . British "Columbia, but it is far different from
the historic rushes to California arid the Klondike.
Pistols .are forbidden.. There is a police commissioner
there who relentlessly collects and stores away all side-arms,
allowing the prospectors to keep only their rifles,
to shoot game.' ; 1 j : ' '
So, little by little, civilization encroaches upon the
open spaces and the wilds gro wtame. It is a whole
some example of social evolution if such a questionable
word may be used without reproach in this fundarnen
talist age: Wholesome, but not picturesque.
Now if .our criminal population could only be persu
aded to look for its gold up in British Columbia, one of
the leading American problems would be solved.

More than anything It's difficult
to write ihaturally in two languages.
To illustrate: Connected with one of
the Latin American legations here
is a secretary wiDse conversational
English Is as fluent and accurate
as any American's but he writes it
a trifle stlltedly. One day it oc
curred to me to ask one of hlj le
gation matj what this chap's Span
ish wa3 like. "Oh," said the latter,
"it's as good as you can expect from
anybody who knows English so
well." That's it. Either one langu
age has a slight edge on the other
or neitaer is quite right.
The Latin, particularly the Span
iard, has the strange delusion that
bU language Is. very rich and Eng
lish very poor. "We have a word
for everything," as one Spanish
speaking diplomat there explained
to me, "but In English you have to
U3e combinations of them to make
yourself clear." The mere fact that
the English dictionary contains at
least 30 per cent more words than
any Latin tongue's isn't recognized
a3 counting for' a thing except, if
you do prove your case too over
whelmingly, you're very apt to lose
the Latin f:iend you've proved It
to.
Pronunciation will work winders
with a word. The O-fahr-rall pro
