il necessary Ia put on heavy wraps.
Such a sudden change was never before
known, it is said, at Ocean City. Mr.
Tyson said the iceberg. seemed to be
three or four miles from snorc, appear
ing like white mass towering above
the ocean rs a mountain and was yelled
in a mist that half hid it from view
except when glass was employed. but
he did not say what kind of glass or
how employed. The iceberg had no
mint around il. but seemed Ia the
observer to be passing down the coast
on its mission of relieving suffering
humanity from the intense and sudden
heat and il seemed to be of sufficient
size To do Il lot of good before melting
away So far as known an iceberg was

long been convinced of the bcncficent

of Il residence on the Eastern Shore of

in sending consumptive patients To the
highlands of Colorado. In many eases
the expense is greater than can bc easily

too often disappointing. Perhaps one
reason why fewer benefits are derived
from stay in the Colorado uplands is
that patients delay too long i'll seeking
such relief. and upon arriving there
have not sufficient strength Ia resist the

necessary in combating consumption.
