ago. with instructions that it be not
opened until ffter her death.
The undertaken laughingly took the

tweDty-seven years old. was the picture
of good health. He placed the envelope

Kyle dead. She had died Of stomach

although a good fellow and well liked,

he was steered against a widow, who
won him hands down in three months.
For a long time he was one of the

The other morning at three o'clock
he turned the corner leading to his
home and was surprised to see light
in the window. Thinking that his
wife might be sick, or that something
else equally as terrible might have
happened, he quickened his step and
burst into the door to find his wife

KNOWN THROUGHOUT THE METROPOLIS FOR
HER GENEROSITY TO THE UNFORTUNATE

common, everyday, homely charities,
which the average philanthropist fails
to heed, Mrs. Ryan's thoughts have
not been found wanting. There are
two beds at st. Vincent's hospital, for
instance, reserved especially for sick
and WORKOUT telephone operators. The
chief operators of every telephone ex-
change are notified regularly that such
provision has been made for the care
of the telephone girls, and when the
two beds are full, Mrs. Ryan's purse
is ever open to supply more if needed.
If Mrs. Ryan hears of boy or girl
who has shown any talent and has
not the means of developing it, her
handsome, motherly face brightens
with one of her happy smiles as she
says: 81 am so glad 1 can do the

It's "a little thing" to educate ambi-
tious boys and girls, and to do all these
little things, with just one stipula-
ton: "You won't say anything about
it, except sometimes remember me in
a little prayer"
In the big public subscriptions
where donors names are advertised
for what they have done, Mrs. Thorn
as r. Ryan's name is never seen.
Avoiding always publicity, she is the
same quiet, retiring, great-hearted
woman who came to New York the

If you wandered into the big sit

many talks like that.
Mrs. Ryan is a great traveller, and
owing to the i'll health of one of her
boys, who has been compelled to spend
so much of his life in arid lands of
the southwest, she frequently takes the
six-days' journey from New York to
the Painted Desert in Arizona During
these trips she always travels in her
private car "Pere Marquette which
includes in it's furnishings a conse-
Grated altar and all the fittings for the
celebration of mass. At such services
her car is always thrown open to any
in the villages who may wish to at
tend.
1t was because of her sons ill-health
and necessitated stay in the southwest
that Mrs. Ryan interested herself in
the missions to the Indians. She has
built II churches throughout the
southwest and she has done much for
tuberculosis sufferers in that region
There are tent villages outside of
Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa and a score of
other desirable places where con-
sumptives find Natures cure, which
has been furnished and supported by
Mrs. Ryan for afflicted men and wom-
en- whose means made such measures
impossible.
