RECEPTION ACCORDED C0NSUMP.
TIvES NOT ALWAYS CORDIAL

Marked antagonism has developed
in many western cities toward tu-
berculosis sufferers. Great difficulty
is at times encountered in securing
hotel accommodations and boarding
places. Even hospital care is oc-
casionally denied to those amply
provided with funds. Part OF this
feeling is due to objectionable con-
duet on the part OF cOnsumptives
themselves, and also TO fear Of the
disease. Much Of il is unreasonable
and unjust. Even in towns largely
composed of The invalid class this
feeling is sometimes manifested. In
some cities, at least, il is due To a
determined effort TO rid the COM
munity OF the presence Of invalids.
So strong is this resentment that
the health service warns all those
who present an appearance Of in
validism TO be governed accordingly.

THE MAN WHO FAILS

The man who fails is the sort OF
chap
Who is always looking around for q
snap;
Who neglects his work 10 regard the
clock;
Who never misses chance TO knock
He is slouchy and slow when work
begins;
When it's time TO quit, he jokes and
grins.
He's always as busy as busy can be
When he thinks the boss is around
TO see.
He believes that pull" is the only
way
BY which he can ever draw bigger
pay;
And he sulks and growls when he
sees his plan
Upset by the push" Of another man.
He's on the job when he draws his
pay:
That done, he soldiers his time
away;
While the men who tackle their
jobs with vim
Keep pushing and climbing ahead Of
him.
For the man who fails has himself
TO blame,
II he wastes his chances, and
misses his aim;
He'd win. il he'd used his hands and
wits;
The man who fails is the man who
quits.
