with healing power TO those suffer
ing from lung trouble, and with
soothing to the Overworked and
nervous sojourner. Ten million
acres belongs to the United States
Government, and no one is allowed
to cut tree or even to take fallen
tree from the woods. Large num-
bers Ofcamps are found all through
these woods. This is the ideal way
to live in the Adirondacks; it means
health and life to those who are
willing to sacrifice some of the con-
venience of the snug and warm
house.
Here in reach of multitudes of
suffering humanity, God, the giver
Of every good and perfect gift, has
placed this great sanitarium. I
could wish it were possible for the
suffering multitudes throughout
our land to take advantage of this
health-giving climate.
Instead of two large institutions
for the treatment of tuberculosis,
there should be fifty scattered
through this wonderful region.
May the Divine Giver touch many
hearts to provide means for the
establishment of these places where
His poor may come and be healed.

Good Work at Electric Plant.

As nice work as we have seen, or
care to see, in the way of electric
installation, is that which has been
put in by the Winchester and
Washington City Company at their
Berryville plant on the Charles
Town Road. The main feature of
the plant is the three big trans
formers which transform the
strength of the electricity from
high 90 low voltage. The power
which will come into the plant here
will he useless so far a. lights and
power are concerned, the voltage
will he entirely too high. To re-
ducc this power to point at which
1t may be properly applied for
lights and power, the big trans
formers and other equipment of
switches, etc, has been installed
here. 1t is n nice piece of work,
aud, to anyone interested in the
application of electricity to com
merce, is especially pleasing.
