    CARING FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Thlrty-NIno Stato and 114 Local Sana
torla Provided, but Theso Art
Only a Beginning.
In iplto or the fact that state sana
toria and hospitals for tuborculosla
have boon established in 31 states, and
114 municipal or county hospitals In
26 states, vastly more public provision
Is needed to stamp out consumption,
says the National Association (or the
Study and Provoutlon of Tuborculosls.
Nearly every stato cast of the Missis
slppl river has provided a ttate sana
torium, and west of the Mississippi
river, state sanatoria have been es
tablish in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Nebraska,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana
and Oregon. There are 38 sanatoria
provided by thoso states, Massachu
setts having four, Connecticut and
Pennsylvania three and Texas two. In
cluding special pavilions and alms
houses, there aro 114 municipal w
county hospitals for the care of tuber
culosis patients.
Apart from these institutions, how
ever, and a few special pavilions at
prisons, hospltnls for tho insane, and
some other public Institutions, a grand
total of hardly 200, tho institutional
caro of tho consumptive is left to pri

PITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA
"A few days after birth wo noticed
an inflamed spot on our baby's hip
wjalch Boon began spreading until
baby was completely covered oven In
hlB eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
wcoks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced it chronic cczoma. He is
a very nblo physician and ranks with
the best In this locality, nevertheless,
tho dlBenso began spreading until
baby wafl completely covered. He
was losing flesh so rapidly that wo became-
alarmed and docldod to try Gutl

"Not until I commenced using Cutl

what ho looked like, as wo dared not
wash him, and I had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing tho scalo from his head tho

Guticura Soap and Ointment he has
aa much hair as ever. Four weeks
after wo began to uso tho Cutlcura
Soap and Ointment ho was entirely
cured. I don't bcllevo anyone could
havo eczema worse than our baby.

fuss until I would treat him, they

Types of the
Christian Life
By Dr. Hugh T. Kerr, Chicago
TEXT Jcsua loved Mnrtlm and her sla
ter and Lnxarus. John 11:5.
Jcbus loved Mnrtlm and her sister
and LazaniB. Jesus loved them all.
Yet ho loved each of thorn. Mnrttu
and Mnry and Lazarus. Each of tbsnn
has a place In his heart. Yot aro
bo different. Jesus does not nsk for
monotony, but variety In his kingdom.
Tho kingdom of grace is liko tho king
dom of nature. No two varieties aro
alike. In my Father's house are many
mnnslonB. One family, but many mem
bers. Ono homo, but many hearts.
That was tho revelation of God's
character in the Old Testament. Ho
was tho son of Abraham, of Isaac, of
Jacob. How different they wero.
Abraham tho faithful, tho consecra
ted, tho pathfinder. Isaue tho lacka
daisical, tho Indifferent, tho father o(
an illustrious son, tho sou of an Illus
trious father. Jacob tho Jow crnfty
and cunning, yet tender-hearted and
visionary, nnd God was the father o(
each and yet loved thom all.
Tho fault with us Is wo want roll(
gion to level human naturo at n dead
uniformity, and wo think Christiana
Bhould all bo conformed to our type,
forgetting that Christ is tho universal
type so universal that wo may all ba
unlko each other nnd yet all bo llko
htm. It is tho fault that bolongs to
our education. Wo grind all our chil
dren through tho samo mill. Black
and whtto, dellcato and robust, bril
liant and dunderhead, they must all
submit to tlio samo polishing process.
It Is tho fault of our church system,
also. Wo want to lovol down tho whole
congregation to our own miserable
lovel. Wo think Christ has conceived
in us tho truo conception of the saint
Thcro is the Sunday school typo nnd
tho Christian Endeavor typo and tha
prayer meeting type. There is the el
der typo and the trustee typo. The W.
C. T. U. typo and tho Y. M. C. A. type.
The tcmpernnco typo and tho mission
ary typo. There Is tho Presbyterian
and tho Methodist and the Baptist
typo. Tho Mary and tho Mnrtha and
tho LazaruB typo. But tho love oi
God Is broader than tho measure ol
tnnn's mind, nnd all may bo included
In his all embracing love.
Lot us remember that Jesus loved
Mary nnd Martha and Lazarus. Mary
tho passive, Martha tho active, and
Lazarus tho patient. Mary satisfied
to bo. Martha to do. Lazarus to
do without) Mary tho waiter, Martha
tho worker. Lazarus tho watcher,
Mary content to sit. Murtha content
,to servo. Lazarus content to suffer.
tAnd Jesus loved each and he loved nil
' Jesus loved Mnrtha. That Is what
(tho record says. Tho active, busy serv.
Ing Christian Martha. Sho Is In tha
majority today nnd Is greatly In le
jmand. Sometimes sho is upt to think
pho is tho only ono whom the Lord
Moves. She has much Scripture to
(quo to in favor of her disposition and
,sho has tho authority of great men
who favor tho strenuous llfo. What
'doth tho Lord requlro of thoo but
'to do justly and to love mercy. Pure
(religion and undeflled beforo God nnd
tho Father Is this- to visit tho father
less and widows in their nflllctlon. "Be
lyo doers of tho word and not hcareri
only."
Martha Is everywhere respected
and honored today becauuo she does
things. Sho Is the Sunday school, tha
(prayer meeting, tho church services,
tho missionary' society, tho ladles' aid.
Jsho is cooking, praying, sowing, visit
ing, collecting for tho kingdom of God,
tuntil when night comes she falls
'asleep too tired to say her prayers
And Jesus loved Martha. And we
must love her too. A religion that
finds Its Joy In sorvico and In conse
crated activity is apt to bo a moral
power. A religion that finds God
nearer In moments of sentiment or
musical ecstasy, Instead of In mo
ments of moral endeavor, is extreme
ly dangerous. Jesus loved Martha.
Jesus loved Mary. Mary tho qulot,
retiring sister who sat at his feet
Mary's claim to recognition camo from
bolng willing to wait upon his words
She Is like the beautiful picture
through which you look into tho great
far beyond. Sho Is. llko whispering
music slnglug comfort into troubled
learts.
In a world of' sin and turmoil Mary
sat in tho confldenco of a beautiful
trust. Sho was llko another beauti
ful girl, upon whoso tombstone hot
friends curved tho words: "It was
easier to be good when sho was with
us." That was Mary's tribute. "What
Interests tho world in Mr. Gladstone,"
writes John Morloy, "Is oven mora
what ho was than what he did." Whnt
Interests tho world In Jesus Is not so
much his beautiful teaching as his
more beautiful life.
It was a hard lesson far Elijah to
learn, Ho was tho child of tho storm
and the tempest. Ho lived In reforma
tions nnd revolutions. "Behold, the
Lord passed by, and a great and
strong wind rent tho mountains and
brake in pieces tho rocks before Je
hovah." My dear friends, lot us not tnko
away from tho boundless power tho
love of God. Ho loved Mnry and
Martha and Lazarus. All with their
differences. And they all loved him.
Mary sits at his feat Martha hur
ries to supply his wants. And Lazarus
is content to glorify him with his
radiant resurrection glory. With all
our differences nnd misunderstand
ings and selfishness we love him and
each in turn is loved by him.
