Consumption Spreads In syria.

Consumptives in Syria are treated
today much In the same way as the
lepers have been for the last 1000
years. tuberculosis is a comparative
ly recent disease among the Arabs and
Syrians, but SO rapidly has 1t spread
that the natives are in great fear of

foot, and made walking hard and tiresome But
up the beach went, and came to the old
wall that had been built there centuries ago
to keep back the waves when winds were at war
with the waters. Soon the frowning walls OF
what served a Spanish prison came to
view, and climbing high up the rocky
bankment entered the old dungeon and
stood therein thought OF the broken
hearts and sighs and cries of agony that had. In
the far distant past. assembled to heaven from
within this cruel enclosure-how that hope had
gone out of the human heart. and death had
come sweet relief to the prisoner here in this
dark and dismal pace-and how that the gay
world had gone outside, forgetful that he had
lived and suffered and passed away.
Leaving this prison of the old time. went
further up the beach and came to the ruined
old CASTLE standing there the seashore like
some great. silent sentry, pointing backward and
whispering to one Of the days that are buried in
the depths of the long ago. Here the governor Of
all the territory had resided-a Spanish noble
in whose veins flowed the proudest blood of
old CASTLE. In this very place he was surrounded
by his numerous courtiers and bands OF soldiers
with Changing arms and trumpet calls and proud
lords and lovely ladies met here in nights gone
BY, and to the strains of sweetest music danced
the hours away. But now all is as quiet and
noiseless the stiffness OF death-only the soft
breezes that pass gently through the foliage of
the royal palms and the evergreen trees and the
faint murmur of the distant waves of the dis
turb the deep and solemn silence.
The great stones that form the castle walls,
towering many feet high. with their barren WIN
dows and frownng portfolios commanding view
of the blue and restless waters far as the eye
can see, are the only tokens that man once re-
sided here-for the ruler and his courtiers and
his bands OF soldiers-proud lords and lovely
ladies of that far-o time. have all. all and
left to tell of their greatness and grand

memory of man.
Only short distance from the ruins Of this
silent old castle stands the wreck OF the once
beautiful cathedral, roofess and barren Its walls
