CARING FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Thirty-Nine State and 114 Local sana-
.oT;a Provided, but These Are
Only a Beginning.

In spite of the fact that state sana-
toria and hospitals for tuberculosis
have been established in 81 states, and
ia municipal or county hospitals in
rs states. vastly more public provision
is needed to stamp out consumption.
says the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis.
Nearly every state east of the Missis-
sippi river has provided state sana-
torium, and west of the Mississippi
river, state sanatoria have been es.
tablished in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Nebraska.
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana
and Oregon. There are 3S sanatoria
provided by these states, Massachu-
setts having four. Connecticut and
Pennsylvania three and Texas two. In
cluding special pavilions and aims
house, there are ia municipal or
county hospitals for the care of tuber-
culosis patients.
Apart from these institutions, how
ever, and few special pavilions at
prisons, hospitals Tor the insane, and
some other public institutions, grand
total Of hardly 200, the institutional
care Of the consumptive Is left to pri-
vate philanthropy.

Her Fathers Child.

The six-year-old daughter Of we'll
known evangelistic preacher was
playing on the sidewalk one day, when
q shabbily dressed and downcast man
approached her fathers house.
Hating at the foot Of the steps. he
looked at her, and in weary voice
the voice of an unsuccessful book
agent-he asked if her father might
be found in his study.
He isn't home" said the little girl,
drawing close to him, and gazing up
into the tired face, but he'll be home
pretty soon. You go into the house,
you poor, perisning soul, and mother'll
look after you till he comes.' .''-Youth's

The Girls Handic.u.

In her pretty new frock sister Mabel
felt quite proud as she sat on the
front step and watched some boys
playing on the sidewalk.
After time one little boy came up
to talk to her and to admire, in his
rough little way, her bright shiny
shoes and pink sash.
See my nice square-cut waist" ex-
claimed the grille, "and my nice coral

She watched bis face to see if her
words were having any effect, but Mr..
Jeffries showed no sign of relenting.
Sarcastically, he said:
"And you took advantage of the
fact and married him?"
For moment she made no reply
She felt the reproach was not unmer-
tied, but why should they blame her
for seeking happiness? Was she not
entitled to it as much as any other
woman? She had not married How

money. In fact, she mad been worse
Off since her marriage than she was
before. She married him because she
loved him. and because she thought
she could redeem him, and she was
ready to go through any amount of
devotion. Quietly, she said:
Yes, l know-I did wrong. But /
l love him, Mr.. Jeffries Believe me
or not-I love him. It's my only ex-
cuse. thought | could take care of
him. He needed some one to look aft

know his character is not so strong
as it might be. He told me that his

But now this terrible thing has hap
pened, and l find l am powerless. It's
too much for me. l can't fight this
battle alone. Won't you help me, Mr..
Jeffries?" she added pleadingly.
Wont you help me?"
The banker was thoughtful a min
ute, then suddenly he turned on her.
".Will you consent to divorce if l
agree to help him?"
She looked at him with dismay.
There was tragic tenseness in this
dramatic situation-a father fighting
for his son, woman fighting for her
husband
"a divorce?" she stammered. why,
never thought of such a thing as
that"
It's the only way TO save him."
said the banker coldly.
The only way?" she faltered.
"The only. way" said Mr.. Jeffries
firmly. do you consent?" he asked.
Annie threw up her head. Her pale
face was full of determination. as she
replied resignedly. catching her breath
as she spoke:
"Yes, il 1t must be. will consent
to divorce-to save him!"
you will leave the country and go
abroad to liye?" continued the banker
coldly.
She listened as in a dream. That
she would be confronted by such an
alternative as this had never entered
her mind. She wondered why the
world was so cruel and heartless. Yet
If the sacrifice must be made to save
Howard she was ready to make 1t.
You will leave America and never
return-is that understood?" repeated
the banker.
Yes. SIR she replied falteringly.
MIR. Jeffries paced nervously up and
down the room. For the first time
he seemed to take an interest in the
interview. Patronizingly he said:

She interrupted him.
That was hard luck-nothing but
hard luck. You're not going to make

said impatiently. 'I've completely cut

She approached nearer and laid her
