A Home for Sick Babies. At tho annual meeting cf the Society for tho Health of AYoinen and Children, held in Auckland on Alonday, it was stated that the want of a home for sick babies was more than ever indicated, for it was impossible to obtain the best results in some of tho homes cf the- sick poor, where thero was a total disregard of hygienic measures. To cope with this difficulty the committee of the Door of Hope decided to take active steps to provide proper accommodation. It has purchased a section of land adjoining its institution, with the intention of erecting in brick a special ward for the sick babies of the poor. Towards this object a sum of ,£IOOO has been donated by Air. and Airs. AV. H. Smith, but to carry out the scheme to meet present requirements a further considerable sum -would be necessary. It had been suggested that the ] society might with advantage co-operate with the Doer of Hope by contributing towards tile building of tho ward, in return for which a certain number of beds might bo set aside for the special use of ca-ses coming under the notice of the l'lunket nurses. i Lady Islington, who presided at t-lio - meeting, said she admired and applauded ' the public services of those men anil women who faced tho problems of society, , and, facing the heart-breaking things of life, stretched out a strong hand to help those who needed it. She added that she would have much pleasure in informing ' Lady l'lunket of the manner in which i the work started, by her had prospered. District Nursing Guild. An unusually largo. number of the Sisters of St. John assembled last evening at St. John's Churchroom, when Dr. I'latts-Mills gavo a lecture on "Fevers." ] Airs. Sefton Aloorhouse presided, and ( apologised for the absence of the presi- ; dent. In an instructive way. tho lecturer i subdivided tho subject chosen, speaking i from the endemic, epidemic, and sporadic j aspcct of fevers, pointing out certain - nccessary precautions needful to counter- I act fever poison and tho treatment cf i patients during the convalescent stage, t The causes and treatment of diphtheria ] were also referred to en passant, and i valuable hints imparted to those mom- i bers who arc studying the subject of ( "Homo Nursing." Hearty applause i greeted Dr. Platts-Alills on the tormina- I tion of her lecture, nnd a vote of thanks 1 was carried by ncclamation. WnAT EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOAY.

This was the Soldene Opera Company, which was under tho management of Signor Chizzola. "We landed in Auckland first," tjaid Miss Soldene, oil one-occasion when telling her experiences, "and the initial omen was ominous. A wheel of the cab camc off as wo drove up from the wharf, and tumbled us in the mud! AYe had no intention of playing there, but we met Do Lias (then the proprietor of the Auckland Theatre), and inside an hour ho had booked us for a month! A curious thing happened at the first rehearsal. Our band parts, wero'froni tho . Gaiety Theatre, London. AVo had .used them all through England and America, and nobody had ever had a word to say. And yet out there, in that-little corner of' tho world, up spoko tho double bass, and said thero was a wrong note marked in his part. And there was, too! This might prove a useful anecdote to point tho moral of how much more observant tho Antipodean musician is than his European confrere." Mrs. Coleman Penrioe lias returned to AVellington from a visit to l'almerston North, where she was the guest of- Mrs. Knight. Mrs. J. AY. Elliott and Airs. T.
