Grateful Resnnnse from Des Moines.


 Rev G. Morris Wilkins, Newtown, Conn., Dear Sir: The box of clothing for Cottage hos pital sent by the ladies of your church, has been received in good order We most grate- fully acknowledge your generous gift and, had you been working with us, you could not have more perfectly supplied our need During the past year, we have built new hospital, cap able of caring for 30 patients. We have had a struggle but have finally succeeded in paying the last bill of the building. The calls upon us are many, our needs have been great, but it gives us heart and strength to work on to feel that others have an interest in us. Such gifts as you have sent help us more than you can know. We have three wards in which there are always babies and they come friend less and destitute. It has taxed us to the ut most to provide for these little ones and your box came just as there were four newcomers, the first to be helped by your bounty. Our charity patients are generally men, miners, and women in the confinement wards. We seldom have children and seldom lind wo- men, other than the cases ment1oned,who alo- plY for aid. These wards are almost constant iy'well filled, as well as the accident ward. Our need of great abundance of bed linen can easily be seen and our excellent matron is al ways careful that every waif who comes to us shall have at least the second best thing, cleanliness. If the kind workers from whom our gift comes could know how far the good reaches they are helping us to do, they would never weary in well doing and would feel richly repaid tor their labor. We wish you all prosperity in your church and feel that with willing hearts and hands, it cannot but be always well with you. Very respectfully yours,-[ Lena NJ. Abdill, Secretary.
