those little ones who otherwise would
have had to go through life crippled and
unable, perhaps, to earn a living, leave
the hospital entirely cured. All are ma
terially benefited by the wise treatment
to which they are subject. This ward of
the hospital is jolly one in spite of the
fact that it is filed with little sufferers
DR.. Ancker's seriousness relaxed when
he entered the long, cot-lined room.
Hello, DOCTOR" called out the children
with cheerful confidence as If certain Of
a response to. their greeting. Hello -
responded the doctor, as cordially. A
young convalescent, conscious OF numer-
Gus pink bows in her hair pirouettes in
front of the doctor. The remarkable
couture is duly admired and the tiny
maiden trips off, smile Of gratified
vanity on her face.
Naturally there are some sad sights in
this ward. Pain has drawn premature
lines on many childish faces. Few of the
children are able to run about like the
small tot with pink bows. But the evil
dence of careful treatment, the hope of
cures, the cleanliness ana the sunshine
relieve much of the gloom.
''It Is one Of the states biggest chart
ties commented DR.. Ancker. And 1t is

A morning spent in the city hospital!
That hasn't a cheerful sound, exactly.
To those outside of the medical profess
sion a hospital is synonymous with suf-
fering. disease and death. A city hos
pitaI. generally speaking, has the addi-
tional disadvantage Of being connected
with the suffering, the disease and the
death of the -city's poor. Not exactly
the place one would select to spend a
bright January morning, and yet, after
one has had the experience, he would
probably term it on the whole pleasant
one, certainly an interesting and re
vealing one, and-if he is so inclineG-a
most profitable one.
Patients are not supposed to be inter
ested in views-at least not when they
are entering the hospital, and perhaps
that is why the ambulance drives up to
an entrance of its own, where the in
iured or i'll are taken from the vehicle
into the hospital without getting more
than a glimpse of the outside world.
But if one is perfectly well and goes
out to the hospital on street car ,he
is pretty sure-before he is swallowed
up in the big pile of buildings-to take
a long look at one of the most wholesome
views the city of St. Paul has to offer.
For beyond the wide strip of lawn that
stretches out in front of the hospital
there is the winding river, and beyond
that the sheer bluffs. and above all
a generous canopy of blue sky. Perhaps
It is because of the view that one en-
tirely forgets the little shivery feeling
he expected to experience when he en-
tered the building. Instead he finds him
self standing in the entrance hall In a
comparatively cheerful frame Of mind.
ones first impression gained while
waiting in that entrance hall is that the
CITY hospital is very busy place. Oc-
casionally a nurse fits by, alert. bust
ness-like. exceedingly natty looking in
her well-ftting uniform. Now and then
a serious faced man enters and passes
ouietlv down one of the corridors. A man
an a snotIess white uniform writes busily
ar a desk in the office opening off the
han To the idle visitor the business-like
atmosphere is not encouraging; but when
the white uniformed man stops his writ
inc long enough to smile cheerfully and
state politely that DR.. Ancker can be
found in the next office that visitor is ant
to feel less like an intruder.
To go through the city hospital accom-
panied by a lesser official may be an in
teresting experience. To accompany DR..
Ancker through it on his morning tour
of inspection is a liberal education in
hospital discipline and general hospital

ward is the number of good story books
and toys that charitably inclined people
have placed here from time to time Tor
the children's enjoyment.
The maternity ward Is in a separate
building. In one room in this building
have occurred all the births that have
taken place in the hospital. Over 200
children have first seen the light Of day
in this small white room The maternity
ward is the oldest Of the hospital build
ings. 1t is probable that when some
changes now contemplated by the man
agement of the hospital are made this
ward will be removed to another part Of
the building. The contagious ward of
the hospital, which is entirely detached
from the other buildings, and which is
the exception that proves the rule that
the general condition Of the hospital is
excellent, will, after the first Of next
September, be thoroughly repaired and
turned into the servants quarters.
BY that time the new building for con-
tagious diseases, the foundations for
which are already laid, will be completed.
There is pressing need at the hospital
for new nurses quarters. The present
quarters are very much overcroWded.
Over thirty nurses are employed In the
hospital, and when their twelve hours of
duty are over they must go to their own
quarters. for needed rest and recreation.
Three or four nurses sleep in each room
and there is no place for recreation.
There are many conditions that contrib

this big city institution is DR.. Ancker's.
THE best institution of its kind in the
country" he will tell you with pardonable
pride as he walks with YOU down the big
corridor; IAN institution that big cities
like Philadelphia and St. Louis would be
proud to own"
There are mathematical minds that,
after their owners have made a tour Of
inspection of a group of buildings like
the city hospital, would be able to de.
scribe exactly just where the different
wards are located and for what purpose
each of the several buildings is used
The visitor who spent one morning there
last week boasts no such mathematical
mind. But she can boast of numerous
impressions and one of the most vivid
of these is her first clinic Following.
DR.. Ancker up a fight Of narrow steps
she found herself on the outskirts of
what seemed a small amphitheatre,
every raised seat of which was occupied
by man or woman. Down below
there was group Of wl1ite-capped
woman nurses. three doctors and
male nurse. The male nurse was uni
formed in white and he Wore white
cap on his head. He was holding the
read OF a patienI-a woman-Who WAS
lying on a long narrow table. The
Woman's body was partly nude. Her face
was hidden. Evidently an operation has
just been performed. A man standing be-
side the body was talking earnestly.
What he said seemed like a queer jun
BILE of technical terms, but evidently il
was ineligible to the men and women
seated around him. There was the odor
of some penetrating drug in the air, but
nobody seemed to mind. Neither did the
CHASTITY looking body OH the table attract
any particular attention. A strong mind
ed looking young woman made some
brief entries in a fat note book and
then leaned over and Whispered to a fell
low student. 1t was all serious work TO
those listeners, but it didn't seem ct all
impressive work. Some Of the students
hadn't even the look Of attention OF their
faces.
In spite of their sick occupants the
wards in the hospital are cheerful places
to visit Flooded with cheerful Sunshine
the numerous windows affording health
giving views Of river, bluffs and sky,
spot1essly white as to walls, floor ano
bedding these wards are the reverse of
depressing. In spite of the apparent
spotlessness. however the quick eyes of
the inspecting physician found something
out Of order and a nurses attention was
kindly but briefly called to the neglect

ute to the present high standing Of ST.
Pauls city hospital among other institu-
tons Of its kind in the country. But the
chief of these conditions is certainly the
fact that the hospital is entirely removed
from the effects Of any political jugglery.
The man who is at the head of the hos
pital now, DR.. A. B. Anckor, has been at
its head for a number of yeals. Every
year Of experience he has received in the
hospital has enriched it just sc much,
for that experience has been turned to
the institutions advantage. That is why
today the hospital ranks among the first
in the United States. DR.. Ancker has to
assist him in his hospital work DR.. James
G. GilflIan and DR.. Paul B. Cook. This
work includes not only this hospital, but
the Ramsey county almhouse, the quar-
antine hospital, the st. Paul workhouse,
the Ramsey county jail. the police de-
partment and the fire department.

CONCESSION TO CUBA.
Reciprocity on Basis Of Forty Per Cent Re-
ducsion on Each Side s Favored.

Reciprocity on Basis Of Forty Per Cent Re.
duction on Each Side is Favored
Washington, Feb. 22.--The Republic
can members Of the ways and means
committee were in private conference
for three hours this afternoon on the
subject of Cuban reciprocity, and,
although the conference went over with
out action the members find themselves
for the first time in possession of a
proposition commanding much strength
and understood to represent the atti-
tude of the administration. This
proposition was brought forward by
Representative Long, Of Kansas, and
authorized the president, when Cuba il
prepared to grant 40 per cent reduction
in duties on United States exports to
the island, to grant to Cuba a similar
reduction Of 40 per cent on all products
coming to the United States. This
was straight reciprocity proposition,
each side granting 40 per cent reduc-
tion without the complications appear
ing in some of the other propositions
as to the method Of payment, etc.
Longs proposition drew out extended
discussion, in which Payne, the chair
man, and Mccall indicated a disposi-
tion to support it. Various other prop
ositions were put forward and dis
cussed, but none took definite form be-
yond that of Long. It is understood
that the issue is likely to be made on
this proposition, since it is believed to
represent the concessions the adminis-
tration believes should be granted on
each side.

-Four long days have crept languidly
into the past, four OF the dullest days
Griselda Dysart has ever yet endured, as
she Is compelled to acknowledge even TO
herself. Slowly, with aimiess steps, she
rises and fings aside the moldy volume
she had found In one OF the rooms below,
and which she has been making fruit
less effort to read, and looks out upon
the sunless pleasure-ground beneath her
window. She becomes suddenly aware
OF an unfamiliar figure that, kneeling on
the grass before one Of the beds, seems
to be wedding away for its dear life.
II IL certainly the new gardener Poor
creature, whoever he ia, what could have
induced him TO come here? Uncle Greg
ory had evidently found no diflculty In

indeed must have been his guest before
he and his clothes came to such sorry
pass! At this moment the unhappy

ately toward her, and-she finds herself
face TO face with Tom Peyton!
A little sharp cry breaks from her; she
stifes 1t, but turns very pale.

low tone, but sharply. "Would you be-
