No one ever appealed to her in vain, for her heart and her home were alike opened to all. She was faithful as a mother, and to her children and her church she gave her all.

She sleeps be nath a flower covered mound in Pros perity cemetery.4 To the bereaved husband and fain il The Herald and News extends its most heartfelt sympathy in their deep bere-avme ma irreparable loss.

Van Bne den of Belgium, who says that 75.8 per cent. of the patients treated in the Bouwrgoumont 'sanatorium in 1903-4 have continued, four years after treatment, to improve, and are in a condition to return to their regular occupations. There are in the United States 298 Sanatoria, 222 Dispensaries and 290 Associations for the treatment or prevention of tuberculo4is, while !there are 600,000 cases of this disese in the country. It is estimated by i4e United States Conservation commis sion that this country loses annually $1,000,000,000 from preventable tn berculosis. For the past three years a -persis tent crusade has been waged against consumption amongst post offic~e erm ployees in France.
