There was exhibited at the rooms of the National Health Society, 44 Berners street, Oxford street, recently, a novel dress intended for the protection of sanitary visitors, nurses, and others, who have to enter the rooms of persons suffering from infectious diseases. The garment is of mackintosh, glazed inside and out, and made. completely to envelop the wearer, and with a hood to cover the head. Thus only the hands and face remain exposed— a matter considered of comparatively little importance, as these can be easily washed with disinfectants. A, sot less important object proposed to be effected by the use of this dress is that by its removal when the wearer leaves the sick room, ihe clothes which hare been protected need not be changed, and the daDger of the disease being carried from house to house, or communicated to susceptible persons in public vehicles, is obviated. A tight case for the fever dress to be enclosed in is part of the invention. At the end of the day, or as often as may be convenient, the dress can be cleansed with disinfectants.. Further protection is given by a simple form of respirator. This is made of two folds of thin washing net, between which is placed a layer of medicated cotton-wool, through which the wearer can breath, though no germs can pass. The respirator has' tape strings, which tie behind' the ears. After being used the wool is burnt and the net washed. I A funny revelation was made in a Melbourne court. A young lady named Jukes was paid a salary for her,services in a church choir, 'and spent what she re* ceived ia studying for the theatviqal stage.
