CARING FOR THE CONSERVATIVES.

Men prominent in philanthropic

the problems of poverty, appealed to
the mayor Of New York on Monday
for an appropriation of s4S7,Ooo by the

consumption. 1t was stated at this
hearing that only $4,000 of the $4,000
sufferers from tuberculosis in the
metropolis are receiving proper medi
cal attendance; that $4,000 new cases
are developed every year, and that TO-
600 deaths occur annually. One of the

trace of 10000 old cases. Many of
these sufferers, it is thought, are living
in the tenement houses in the congest-
ed areas in the city. spreading the dis
ease
Not only i n the congested metro
politan centers but in the smaller cities
hundreds of cases of tubercular trou
bles are failing of proper treatment.
The patient does not know how to care
for himself-and that is the main part
of the treatment. In many instances
among the poor good care is impossi-
BILE at home. The thing is to do is to
start the country camps. Their edu-

POOR BROWN.

Every one remembers the awful

a club, while his son and the husband
of the woman was dying Of consump-

The horror is all too recent to have
been forgotten. The husband returned
died, and was buried by his murdered
wife; the old man is behind the walls
of penitentiary. Now the dispatches
state that under the will Of the son and
husband-who was rich with wealth
acquired largely thru gambling-his
own name is to be absent from the
marble shaft to be erected above his
wife's grave and the administrator is
directed TO find and REIN burse with in

OF those who toll. toll only,
In wayside temples lonely,
The patient country teachers whom
the bells of duty call.
The little country schoolhouse in far

lane,
The vines around the windows where
the little blinds of green
S.ft the sunbeams till they dapple on

Thru gladness and thru sorrow.
Today and yet tomorrow.
No thought from grief to borrow,
We see them trudge to duty.
With patience sweet as beauty,
The teachers OF the country schools

All hail to them and honor, and

Who brave the springtime torrents and
who wade the winter SHOWS
To meet the spiritual need of doing

With shameless. poor repayment,
