The Comet In SecIusion.

Halley's comet, it is said, mas gone
into seclusion for about month, and
during that time will be shielded from
mortal eyes by golden veins of sunlight.
This announcement is made by Prof.
Edwin b. Frost, director of the Ycrkes
observatory, in Wisconsin.
The reason for the retiring of the
comet is that it is 50 nearly in Il line
between the earth and the sun that it
cannot be seen against the bright
background. There is strong proba-

REID HOSPITAL
One of the grandest institutions O

One of the grandest institutions of
the city. When the big building was
first under cover. the critics said "A
white elephane, out of all proportion to
the size of the town." and for the frst
year or two. it did seem SO. for the
average number of patients cared for
from day to day was eight or nine;
1910 sees it Allied with the average of
patients running 80 to 40 The trus-
tees Of the hospital carry a heavy load
in standing responsible for the financ-
ing and for the efficiency Of the insti-
tuition; their task looks like a thank
less one, either in rewards or appre-
citation. Would you like to step into
their shoes for a year?
The hospital has been fortunate in
its superintendent, and is especially
SO in Miss Sellers. who is a fine bust
ness woman. in addition to being a
first rate administrator. She spares
neither thought nor labor in making
the most of the means at hand, and
in providing to the very limit for the
comfort of the sick people who come
under her care, as well as in trying to
alleviate as far as possible the hard
ships of those lives which are given
day after day and night after night to
the task of lessening pain, and of re-
storing to health those suffering ones
who have become the victims Of acct
dents or Of diseases-her corps of de-
voted nurses. r.
The ladies aid society Of Reid hos
pital makes 1t possible for Miss Sol
lers to execute many of her wisest
plans. They have added necessary
equipment to the kitchen; they have
replenished and added furnishings to
the beds: they have provided delica-
cies for the sick in the way of jellies
and jams and fruit juices: and their
browning work has been the purchase
or the automobile which makes a

this grand modern institution to lend

Mexico is now celebrating its strug-
gle for independence which began one
hundred years ago. 1t was a small
beginning, followed by crushing rever-
ses, and it was not until 1921 that the
independence of the country was rec
ognized by Spain. Then came a long
period of civil wars. This was the
story throughout Spanish America.
and at times II seemed as II indepen-
dence was hardly worth the price tina.
was being paid for it. The end Of
feuds and strife came in Mexico with
the supremacy of Diaz. During his
many administrations there has been
stable government, but 1t has not
escaped violent criticism. and even
moderate writer's have declared that
his presidency is a dictatorship. The
attacks have continued IN to the
present day: the word republic as it is
applied to the country is said to be a
mockery. 1t must be acknowledged,
however, that there has been a vast
improvement since the first revolt
was started. and this is true of the
Spanish-American nations generally.
