Wives, Save Your Husbands.

The meeting of the National AS
ISOLATION for the Study and Proven
ton OF tuberculosis, in Washing
ton, last week, was once of the notable
events of the year. 1t was a con-
gress in which mingled the elect of
the medical profession of the United
States and Canada, and many lay
men and laywomen. They met upon
q plane OF equality, 20 seriously
discuss o national problem, viz,
how to wipe out the dread disease,
consumption.
Ii developed during the discus
sions which lasted two days, that
tuberculosis has killed more people
in these piping times of peace in
the United States than have sue
cumed to the bullet, the sabre and
disease in the combined armies of
Russia and Japan, since the begin
ming of that war in the Orient. But
in spite of this gloomy outlook, the
whole tone of the meeting was hope
full. In fact, this meeting was,
perhaps, the loudest note of hope
that has been sounded in the fight
against this plague. Over four hun
dred serious, yet enthusiastic peo-
pie, registered as delegates to this
congress. They came from twenty
eight States and represented many
| thousand people all over the coun-
try, members of State and local as
sociations engaged in batting the
disease.
DR.. William Osler, who made his
last public address, in America at
the session on Thursday, morning,
said that the success of the fight
depends upon the intelligent inter-
est of all the people of the State.
This educational work cannot be
done in this State by the Maryland
Association for the Prevention and
Relief of tuberculosis alone, but il
is essential that groups of people in
each locality shobld organize local
associations and affiliate themselves
with the State Association, in order
that they may enjoy the benefit oil
their lectures and printed matter.
The Office of the State tuberculosis
Association is in the Federated
Charities Building, Baltimore, and
the Executive Secretary, FL. Writ
Steele, invites correspondence.

1t can, however, be stated in addi-
lion that Grand Duke Alexander Mich
aleovitch, the emperor's brother-ifl-
law, who undoubtedly exercises a
greater personal influence with his
majesty than any other member Of the
imperial family, and, who until the
disaster Of the Russian feet was the
most uncompronIising advocate Of war
to the last ditch, has joined Grand
Duke Vladimir, uncle Of the emperor,
in counseling conclusions OF peace.
Another convert made by the advo-
Gates Of peace is Admiral Alexieff.
With Grand Duke Alexander Michael

1niral Alexieff on the side Of peace, the
backbone Of what has been dominated
the war party seems to have been
broken. Nevertheless, the final word
rests with the emperor himself.
