No Menace In SanatorIum.

DR.. Edward l.. Trudeau who built
the first tuberculosis sanatorium In
the United States In 1885, says:
When ] bought the first land on
which the Adirondack Cottage sanato-
rum is built. paid $25 an acre for II,
but the price was then thought alb
surdly high. My last purchase of Ave
acres cost me $4,000 To my knowl-
edge, there has never been an employee
who came to the sanatorium in sound
health who developed tuberculosis
while there; and a sanatorium can no
more endanger the health of the neigh
borhood In which Il is built, even II
the residences are at Its very gates.
than It could II II were placed on top
OF high mountain miles away from
habitation."
