REMEMBER THE HOSPITAL

It is on a sound and wholesome business basis that every one of ns is wanted at the Nurses" Home in Willis street this afternoon, just to buy our flowers or vegetables, onr cakes, home-made jams and sweets there, instead of at our usual tradesfolk for one day. These are real home-made cakes and home-made sweets, too, not one or two on top and bought ones underneath, as sad experience sometimes reveals. The cakes, too, are guaranteed to prove an excellent investment, and the flowers as fresh as they aro varied and beautiful, for the esprit do corps of the nurses who have initiated this sale for the benefit of the hospital and tho prestige of the ladies who have so generously supplied the sinews of war aro at stake. It is well to remind careful housekeepers and economical yet kindly people that there is no extravagance in buying such useful and wholesome articles as will bo on sale at the Nurses* Home today. One is benefiting oneself as well

as assisting the funds of an institution in which every member of the community feels a keen and sympathetic pride. Nor will the afternoon be devoid of amusement; there are ingratiating whispers of competitions to be entered, into, and for the mothers who prefer toys for the children to cakes and sweets —well, they have been remembered, too.
