Dear Bditor and Secial' Corner Sis- ters: I want to take a little of your time just now and give you a visit throngh the Insane hospital. o > First we will take the elevator dswn into the b; ent, or “duck” as they call it hei You find truck tracks running in all directions. One to the men’s criminal building; one to the women's. Alfo to the pavilion of the ‘men and women; and one to the Jaundry. As we leave the élevator, to our right, we enter the ice plant, a nice Wwhité room. Adjoining this is the en- gine room, where the water is forced in and out through the pipes of the ice box. The ice is made from pure spring water; the cakes are long and smooth, weighing from sixty to sev- enty-five pounds when taken out of the cans. Everything here is very clean and shows that care and pride {is the chief object of this man's work. Next we will look into the larze storeroom, where we find everything in order. Through the main duck you will find the barber shop, which looks in- viting enough to go into and get a shampoo. Across at the right. is the smoking room._ You naturally would think here | you Would find a rather dirty place because of patients that are mot re- sponsible; but it'’s not so. They have spittoons, and know how to use them. The stone fipors all through are clean and free from filth of any kind. The elevators here are run by pow- er, carrying laundry, rrovisions, ete, that are needed to the men’s and wo. men’s departments. Three cages of guinea pigs in an- other room are used by the doctors for experimenting purposes. . At the north end of the duck is the laundry. Clathes are washed by steam. Upstalrg twelve girls, each has her line of work, with a few patients to help out on the ironing. The place is nice and clean, with good ventila- tion. The sleeping rooms are cozy and comfortable. Coming out of the duck, up some stone steps, we enter the main build- ing. At the right is the nurses’ lec- ture room. At the left the officials’ dining room, No. 1. Next we enter the kitchen, where rou will find patients working with the employes. This is a nice large room, with skvlight, the cooking range, running nearly one whole side of the room. ~One large roasting oven, and three large tanks which contain cof- fee; hot water and tea. AIl the food is cooked by steam. In the center of the room are six large vegetable kettles and opposite from them are four steamers. The floors here are washed every morning, to my know- inviting look. On the other side of th four large refrigerators. in_one, butter, sauce and eggs in an- other, and go on. About 150 pounds of meat is used a day and fourteen The food is well n you find e room are cooked most in; Acros dining room No. 2, which will 150 people. This is for the employes. Nurses, attendants, farmers and leun- dry girls. ‘Here three waiters, with far better itutions. | patients, wait on the nine tables. The b at one end of the dining room w es the work easy, It saves many steps for waiterg and keeps the feod hot. As net all can eat at the same time, attendants have te relieve one another. Also nurses, making meals me one hour apart, This makes it better for a waiter as she can give better satisfaction if able to take her time. The floors here are washed Meat is kept in | from the kitchen we enter | seat | i | tendants, lockeq after the werk is dome, until time to epen up again. A patient lo after the dishwash- ing machine, which is a saver, in dish- , where so many dishes have to be handled. ¥You may ask if they come out clean? Yes; not as you or I have seen them before now, just half dene, where a girl would have to get thé rest of the grease off on the towel. I have seen no such slack- ness here and in this roem, although small, we have no fear of running into swill with our white aprons on, for the patient keeps his pails out of the way of women's skirts, and is just as neat in all he does as you or I could be. : Next is the cook room, which has a large bread mixer rum by power, which makes the bread taste like home made. As an attendant re- marked: She had eaten six slices of bread, it was-so good, and she thought the seventh slice might satisfy her ap- petite. She felt almost ashamed to eat that, but it was so fresh she couldn't resist. All wear white uniforms, which give a clean look to those who are codk ing—nothing looks better than white. At the end of the hall is the 'hos- pital store. Here you will find every- thing in its place. Going from there up a flight of stone steps we find ourselves on the | main _corridor, where right and left are matrons’ receptio and sleeping rooms. dispensary, musmgg room, den- tist, library and some sleeping room: Also men’s and women's bathrooms, etc. On_the second corridor, we find at the right the chapel, where meetings are held. moving pictures shown: and dances given. They have a nine plec orchestra, which gives good, up-to date music. Some evenings you will hear just piano selections. , At the left, as also up another flight of stairs, are employes’ sleeping rooms with steam heat, electric light, mak- ing the rooms very comfortablie. Passing nowsdown to the main cor- ridor again we walk along quite a step where two ways open at the north and we enter the private ward of the pavilion for women. south is the private ward for men. Tn the women's ward they have about all the conveniences anyone would wish for, even to a piano. Going ‘along the corridor again w. find more passageways leading to the different wards. I might go on at some length in describing the differ- ent wards, where the patients are, but it would take more space, and I am afraiq tire vou out, so wiil say there are all clas: rich and poor, old and young, put here for treatment. They have the best of care and attention from the nurses and attendants. There are those here that are able to work. And they are given light work to do, and seem to enjoy it. I wonder many times £ them to lose their reason. Many will tell you they are not c and expect te go home soon; -but by watct ing, vou will scon find out what the: i rons on. esent time T have a pa- ne who enjoys sketchin, parole patient.)

I keep them in a large south window during the winter, and they blossom beautifully. Out of doors a dear girl's white vio- lets are filling the air with fragrance hollyhocks my mother planted are coming on: lilacs, pink and white, Grandma D. gave me are budded, and primroses, my father’s favorite flow er, so dainty and sweet, are beginning to bloom; and last, but not least, those narcissus just coming up, most prized of all, the first time I saw their ances- Tl leave You to guess the rest.

The ' advice to get this ‘“‘Suffrage and Votes for Women nation oat of | your head and marry this fellow, be a noble mother, and make a happy home” is good, but let me ask a few uestions. If Mary Ann loved the apothecary fellow” well enough to live with him and make a happy home would she need to be told her duty? That old-fashioned advice ‘‘marry for a home” is responsible for many unhappy homes and deserted. children. A noble mother is an almost sacred woman; but not every women fs fitted to be a moble mother, any more than all men are fitted to be moble fathers. More homes are broken up by silly gossip and the flattery of mes, than by the suffrage question. There are too few happy homes, but it is not all the women’s fault. A woman can- not make a happy home unless the husbund does his part. I agree that the suffragettes have made themselves ridiculous, and done thelr cause much harm; but they have not caused the suffering and loss of life end property that are sacrificed in almost every big strike, 'and there is nothing said about taking the right of voting from the men because there arc fools among them.
