OPTIMISM THE TONE.

Readers of The Chattanooga Time
who read yesterdays issue and note,
the words of courage and hopefulnes
spoken by the members of the Chamber
OF Commerce of the United States, who
are in touch with conditions of the
country and their controlling causes, and
the message of promise sent out by the
masters of the iron and steel industries
from their conference in Birmingham
surely realized the justification fol
optimism. The commercial men told us
that the opening trade for cotton as q
result of the admission of the staple ia
the freedom of til seas was thoroughly
reassuring and that the movement Of
cotton would stimulate the advancement
of general business. The belligerent
countries have got to have cotton and
now that they can get it without incur
ring danger, they are going to apply for
it in increasing volume. As further
pointed out by the New York Times, the
cotton situation is being relieved along
normal, sound business lines and that
the outlook is now brighter for the staple
than at any other time since the Euro
pean war broke out. There is therefore,
ample reason for listening to the prom
ise Of President Fahey, OF the National
Chamber of Commerce, who from the
vantage point of the man who is ia
miliar with conditions in all sections,
declares that ''the country will come out
of the present depression bigger, better,
and with largely increased confidence in
her own strength and power"
Judge Ebert Fl. Gary, of the Ameri-
can Iron and Steel institute, speaking at
Birmingham Thursday night, said:
Without particularizing, it would seem
safe to predict that in many importan.
respects business conditions in the
United States for the next three months
at least will be better than they have
been the last three months. AS to the
long future, l cay with emphasis, that
the opportunities for progress in this
country are greater than ever before"
The significance Of these helpful utter
ances is that while at this moment there
may be need for economical and careful
management, the immediate future is big
with promise for revival that will be
unprecedented in the commerce and in
dustry of the United States. We are to
become the supply depot OF the world for
years, while the nations are repairing
their losses and recovering from the des-
tructive forces of this mad war.
1t is no time now to be blue, but
rather it is the time to be outstanding
our energies and resources against the
time when both will be taxed to their
Observation-Disclosures Times.

The people of this parish will re.
pret to learn that after Jan. Is, 1915
the Natchez Hospital will be closed
to Louisiana patients. The an
nouncement comes in q letter from
the Secretary of the Hospital to the
Police Jury, which is published else
where. The closing of this Hospital
to the indigedent sick and wounded
of this parish will he a great incon-
venience andin many cases cause Of
suffering for want of proper medical
attendance and hospital facilities, az
the cost Of sending such patients
to the hospital in New Orleans cor
Shreveport is so great.
This decision by the Hospital
Board is not made because of SIM
! liar decision made by the Charity
Hospital at New Orleans, but is
made because the institution has
not sufficient means for its support
and care for the sick from this State.
During the year ending Novem-
ber!1st, 1914, the parishes of Frank
lin, Tensas, Concordia, Catahoula
and Richland sent 1893 patients to
this hospital, who stayed there for
an average of 14.6 days, each, or in
all 1912 days at an average cost of
a little more than 75c per day, max
ing the total expense to the hospital
on account of the patients from these
five parishes S4,412.47, while the
patients from other parishes, being
100 in number, brought the total
expense Of the Louisiana patients up
to the handsome sum of IS, 668. 10
for the year, while the only parishes
which contributed to the support of
the institution were Tonsas, Concor-
dia and Franklin, which contribut-
ed collectively the sum of $7O0.OO|
per annum, or making a net loss to
the hospital of "a, 968.18.
From the above figures it will be |
seen that the Natchez Hospital could
hardly be expected to continue re-
ceiving and treating Louisiana pa
tients when the loss incurred is prac- |
tically 5000 per annum. We re-
greet very much that the institution |
found it necessary to take this step,
nor do we see how they could d.
otherwise, nor do we see how the
parishes affected can pay the sum
necessary to throw the doors of this
fine institution open to our INDECENT
sick. We hope. however, that some
way will be found to get around the
unfortunate situation.
While we, in company with the
community generally, regret the ne
cessity of the step token by the man.
agement of this institution, we fee
that we voice the sentiments of the
people of this section of Louisiana
in expressing to them the sincere
thanks of our people for their kind
and generous treatment Of our indi-
gent sick in the past.

Dear Strive regret to inform YOU

will he forced TO deny admission tn all
patients coming from your State.
This hospital, as you probably know,
is maintained by an appropriation from
the State, supplemented by additional
appropriations from both the City of
Watcher and Adams County.
The amount Of money thus obtained il
inadequate to care for the sick and in
iured coming from the State Of Missis-

which this communication il due notice.
Ii may be Of interest to you to know
that the services rendered patients COM

With this knowledge you may readily
see that to take proper care of them il
impossible with our present limited re.
sources.
We beg to state that this action is in
no way a reprisal prompted by the action
1t the New Orleans Charity Hospital in
efusing admission to patients coming
rom Mississippi. Indeed we would be
lad to continue our present system OF
admitting patients from anywhere if II
we're possible to do so.
In this connection we will say that II
now, or at any time hereafter the Par
ishes of Louisiana contributing the
greater number of patients could assure
rs the necessary funds to cover expenses,
we will gladly admit all coming from
your State, it being understood, however,
that the amount necessary twill be
SO, OOO.O 90 annually.
We will not presume to suggest to you
the method of raising this fund, even
should you SO desire, as we are not con-
versant with your laws governing this
expenditure.
With very best wishes, I'VE are,
Yours very sincerely,

her EXPERIENCE
GAINED ON TRIP
Found That Ladies in State Agreed
With Her On One important
Question

Mangham, La.-Mrs. Liza Barber,
OF this town. who has returned from
n trip in West and Middle Tennessee,
has the following TO say: 81 have
been on a trip in Middle and West
Tennessee, where l found many
ladies using Cardui, the woman's
tonic. While travelling took great
pleasure in telling what it had done
for me. l not only praised Cardui,
but advised poor suffering women to
take it. / know that Cardui cured
me, and believe 1t will do the same
for other women.
Some time ago / could hardly
stand on my feet, and / had given up
ever having good health After using
two bottles OF Cardui I could tell it
was helping me, and / continued TAX
ing it for awhile. l soon felt as we'll
rs l ever did, and could do all OF my
work
l shall always praise this great
medicine to every suffering woman.
! think there is no other half so
good"
Mrs. Barber would have found
weak, ailing women taking Cardui
almost anywhere she could have
gone, because Cardui is recognized as
the standard woman's tonic. 1t has
helped more than a million women
back to health and strength in the
past so years.
