at the swiftly receding track-"do you

"Stop!" exploded the a%poplectic-
looking old gentleman in the corner
raising his arm as If to ward off a
blow. IF you are about to say that
the laying of this railroad has cost "a
man for every tie you will be morally
responsible for my demise! l have
heard that expression exactly $4,000
times sc far this tourist season, and
n time more would be the last straw
especially as the statement is not
true"
To be true, the railroad would have
cost more lives in it's construction
than were ever engaged in work on 1t.
But 1t is at least a striking way OF
suggesting something that is a fact
the lavish pouring out Of human life
blood that has been the price OF this
great canal of ours.
1t is easier to bask in the sunshine
OF such g~eneralities as this than to
produce statistics. It is said that fig
ures always lie, and in this case the
figures not only would lie If o could
get them, but o AM get them. One
high in authority in the sanitation de-
partment puts the loss OF life among
to 10000. Our own official records
from the time OF the French purchase
to the present are misleading, but are

PUBLIC SHARING THE BURDEN
institutional Care Of consumptlves
Has Been Largely Shifted From
Private Purses.

Out Of nearly 800 600, 900 spent last
year in the treatment and prevention
Of tuberculosis in the United States,
1913 per cent. of the money was de-
rived from public funds, either fed
eral, state, county or municipal. These
ara some of the interesting figures CIV
en- in the annual statistical statement
OF he National Association for the
Study and Prevention Of Tuberculosis.
The statement is based largely on &C
tual reports received from anti-tuber-
culesis agencies throughout the coun-
try. hut where reports were not avail
able the figures have been estimated.
Treatment Of t%uberculous patiA>ts in
the more than 500 sanatoria and hos
pitfalls If the country and the construc-
ton Of such institutions cost over $751;
100000 at the total expenditure. Care
or patients in dispensaries and open
air schools cost about 1926, 600. Anti
tuberculosis associations and commit
tees spent nearly $675.O00 in further
Ing their work Of organization and edu-
cation. while state and local boards Of
health and special tuberculosis COM
missions spent over $250.O00.
More than $13,800,0 900 or 6s.3 per
cent Of the total expenditures came
from public funds. The National as
