Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County · Historic Serials Collection 26 THE HOSPITAL REVIEW. In Memorianau Our hearts to-day go out in tender sympathy to a bereaved family, whose home has been suddenly darkened by the departure of a beloved daughter, whose early womanhood gave rich promise of a bright future, but " her sun has gone down while it was yet day." About twenty of the Hare family had been spending a delightful summer at Huntingdon Valley, near Philadelphia,when Ida Hobart, daughter of Charles Willing and Mary W. Hare, who for several years resided in this city, was attacked with peritonitis and died after an illness of nine days. During her residence in Rochester Miss Hare was a frequent visitor at the City Hospital, and her sunny presence was welcomed in our wards, and the memory of her loving ministries will long linger in the hearts of our inmates. She identified herself with many of the interests of the Hospital, took an active part in our Donation Festivals, was an efficient member of St. Luke's Flower Mission. She brought cards, flowers, books, fruit, bright smiles and cheering words to.the Hospital patients, and if out of the city at Christmas or Easter was sure to send some token of her remembrance. On our last visit to the Hospital it was touching to hear one, who for years had been unable to walk and was confined, to her rolling chair, speak of the kind acts of the departed, who was wont, aided by a friend, to take the patient out for an airing, rolling her chair, and thus breaking in upon the monotony of her life by giving her a long ride and a view of other parts of the city. Less than a year ago Miss Hare left Rochester, but, during her residence here, her earnest, consistent Christian life and her genial presence won for her many friends, who will fondly cherish her memory. Little Deetta Hart Mitchell has begun early to remember the Hospital children. She sent them a doll's hat the other day. Additional Annual Subscriptions to the City Hospital. By Mrs. John Brewster.

Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County · Historic Serials Collection A Bamboo Bedstead. While we were absent last summer, a beautiful little white bamboo bedstead was sent to the Hospital by Lulu Belle McAJlaster. It had a canopy top, was trimmed with dotted muslin and lace, over blue, and was a very dainty bedstead. Lulu and her little brother had slept in it through their babyhood, and as they had outgrown it, it was sent to the Hospital to be used by the sick children. It had a nice mattress, a pillow, sheets and pillow cases, and a silk comfortable that Lulu had spent two years in making. The mother suggested that one of the little girl's dolls should be put in the bedstead, but Lulu replied : " Do you think you would want to give away one of your children?" When we have the Pavilion completed we shall find a nice place for Lulu's pretty bamboo bedstead, and the comfortable so neatly made by the little donor. • There is great need of old bed-quilts or bed tidies in the Hospital. We need a large number of these. They should be quilted so that they can be washed. Receipts for the Review. FOR AUGUST, 1885. Dr. C. J.

The everyday cares and duties, which men call drudgery, are the weights and counter-poises of the clock of time, giving its pendulum a true vibration, and its hands a regular motion.—Longfellow. No gFace is more necessary to the Christian worker than fidelity; the humble grace that marches on in sunshine and storm, when no banners are waving, and there is no music to cheer the weary feet.—S.J Niccolls. Satan always rocks the cradle when we sleep at our devotions.
