COUNTRY CLEARLY AT FAULT
Provisions for Taking Care Of Unfor
tunate tuberculosis Victims Are
All Too Meager.

The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of TuberculO-
sis states that there are in the United
States at least 100000 consumptives
who are so poor that they cannot pay
for proper medical treatment in tuber-
cluosis sanitoria and hospitals Some
OF them can pay small amounts
week for their maintenance, but the
great majority of them cannot pay any
thing. For this large class of pa
tients the entire country has provided
only 10000 beds for the free treatment
of tuberculosis. In Alabama, Arkan.
sas, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Mon.
tana, Nevada, North Dokota, Okla.
homa, Oregon, Philippine islands,
South Dakota, Texas, Utah, West
Virginia and Wyoming there is no
r3ace where the consumptive without
means can be treated but in the jails
or the insane asylums of these states,
and in most cases he will get no treat
ment there. Sixteen other states pro-
vide less than SO beds each for poor
consumptives. In only two states,
Massachusetts and New York, have
beds for needy tuberculosis patients
been provided, so that at least one
in ten may find place for treatment.
In many of the other states not one
in fifty of the destitute consumptives
can find bed in a hospital or sana-
t0rium.

any case the faithful trusting girl was

But often the best laid plans meet
with an unexpected hitch. For some
reason Elizabeth refused to we'd this
man she professed to love above all

for Robert her selfishness was prob

the idea of shar-
ing her royal power with any one. At
any rate, she remained single, and
Amy Robsart's vile murder was all in
vain. Yet Elizabeth continued to
shower favors on Robert. She made
him knight of the Garter, gave him
the great castle of Kenilworth, and
in 1854 created him earl of Leicester.
AS years went on she raised him con.
tinually to higher and higher posts of
honor. Robert had ambition without
ability. Therefore he made more or
less of failure of every enterprise or
diplomatic task allotted to him and
was hated by the people, All of which
did not dim Elizabeth's affection nor
open her eyes to the mans true char.
acter. In 1876 the earl of Leicester
secretly married widow whose hus.
band he was said to have poisoned.
Elizabeth at last was aroused against
her favorite. She threatened to have
him cast into prison-not on suspicion
of poisoning. but for daring to prefer
another woman to herself. Yet she
later forgave him, and he remained
one of her foremost advisers until his
death in 1887.
In Sir Walter Scott's novel, "Kenil-
wcrth,' Amy Robsart is represented
as confronting Elizabeth at Leicester's
castle in 1875. The chief flaw in
Scott's version is that Amy had been
killed Is years earlier, and that Eliza
beth in all probability never saw the
unlucky girl.

gave him he owed his safety. That
the strangely mated couple grew to
care very much for each other, in
their own free-and-easy way, is GER

love that endured, yet while it lasted
both Henry and Marguerite were the

lied from Paris. Marguerite, against
her family's wish, insisted on follow
ing him to Navarro. There the two
planned a series of diplomatic master
strokes that strengthened the Hugue-
Eot cause and made Henry's name ia
nous throughout France.
Years passed by and the royal cou-
pie continued to govern their little

greater power In course of time

mourned greatly over this ingratitude.
She was allowed to keep her title of

Her palace became the resort of learn

money in keeping up this private es-

was sorely vexed. Yet he and she al

aid in matters of diplomacy. She
lived to see Henry's wise rule lift

GREAT LOVE STORIES
OF HISTORY -
BY ALBERT PAYsON TERHUNE
Henry Of Nevarre and Marguerite Of Valois
BY ALBERT PAYSON TERHUNE
(Copyright by the Author. }

Two young people stood before the
altar facing the archbishop of Paris
one day in August, 1872. The girl was
slender and beautiful. The man was
tall, dark, homely, with great hooked
peak OF a nose. The young couple
were both under 20. All the nobility
of France had flocked to Paris to wit
ness their marriage. Yet, now that
the two faced the archbishop, there
was most amazing hitch in the cere-
monies.
The bride refused to make her re.
sponses! The bridegroom (Henry,
king of the subsidiary province OF
Navarre) answered II do" to the arch.
bishops query as to whether he would
take Princess Marguerite de Valois as
his wife. But when the same question
was put to Marguerite she refused to

Then "a pale, wild-eyed man, gaudily
dressed, stepped forward, caught Mar

thus Overcame the brides obstinacy
was her brother, the half-crazy Charles
TX, king of France.
The foregoing scene is scarcely a
promising opening for "love" story
and needs some explanation. France
for years had been rent by quarrels
between two great factions, the Hugue-
e. nots (Protestants)
u,,.. and Cath olics. The
dispute was pol
lltlcal, rather than religious, and led
to long series of wars. Catherine de
Medici, mother of Charles TX. and
Marguerite de Valois, hated the Hu.
guenots and made the following plan
for their distinctions: She arranged
marriage between Henry, king of
Navarro 1eader of the Huguenots)

QUAINT STORY WITH MORAL
Wise Pupil Who Profits by Instruc-
tion Is Delight of the Master
Unique Test.

The far east abounds in quaint little
stories, each leading up to one of those
moral epigrams which seem so to de-
light the hearts of all races. Herr: is
the story of the Two Pupils" whose
moral, which you will read again when
you have finished the story, is, "A wise
pupil who profits by instruction is the
delight of the master"
In a certain great city there dwelt
an aged philosopher who had two fa-
vorite pupils. The day came at last
when he was to part with them, cor,
as young men will, they were deter
mined to travel and see something of
/ the world. In order to settle a doubt
in his mind as to which hal most prof.
tied under his instruction, the snge
gave to each youth sum Of money.
Go buy with this money something
that shall fill whole room," he sa1d.
One pupil hied him to the marhet,
where he purchased a quantity OF
straw. This he had taken to his room,
which it nearly filled. Next morning,
he invited his master to cnll and zee
what he had DONE
Not bad! Not bad!" commented the
wise man, when he had glanced in at
the door. Then, turning to the ot;ler
pupil, who had accompanied him. ho
asked:
And what have you bought with
your money!"
Master, if it please you, have got
only a small lamp and some OIL G'he
light Of this lamp, however, will fill
the room in the dark evening hotrs.
By this means we may continue our
studies after the day is done, when we
wish to do so."
Bravo! Bravo!" cried the deligh.ed
sage. Nov, indeed, art thou fit to 20
into the world!"
And he Judged that the purchase Of
the second pupil was the wiser.
