From The Country Gentleman.- "There is no more deserving institution than that in connection with the welfare of the dog which is presided over by Mrs. Leuty Collins, under the name of the Canine Nurses' Institute. It has not been sufficiently long in existence to have made much progress at present, but there is evidence of it having become more widely known during the past twelve months. Ladies and others who keep valuable dogs, either for exhibition or as pets, are beginning to find out the value of being able to get trained nurses at a moment's notice when their dogs are stricken down with distemper or any other ailment which their dogs are liable to contract. Recently the Marchioness of Donegall kindly allowed a meeting of those interested in the movement to be held at he own house in Rutland Court, for the purpose of presenting the medals to those nurses that had been successful in passing the examination arranged at the Institiute. The presentation of these medals was made by Her Highness the Pricess of Tousson, who is well-known as a successful exhibitor of Pekingese spaniels, and Mrs. Vallance, another lady who exhibits pet dogs, and is a member of the Ladies' Kennel Association, presided at the meeting. The cheif award was a gold medal in rememberance of his late Majesty Edward VII.'s kindness to animals, the gift of Miss Mackenzie of Highland Rock. The silver medal presented by Mrs. Macpherson of Kingussie was won by another efficient nurse; and the Probationer's medal, the gift of Mrs. Herring, of Lee, was awarded on this occassion, and several certificates to other nurses also being given."'
