secretary for the National Sanitarium
Association, addressed our schools on
Friday giving.: information Ln refer-
ence :to the important and encourag-
ing work donne by the consumptive
hospitals in this province. It may be
news to many good people that the
death ratte from.cansumption has al-
ready been reduced by mare than 40
per cent. since the beginning of the
present •century: And the hope is
now confidently entertained that
within a quarter ;af a century hence
there will be no mare consumption in
Ont lice. The 'great improvement
shown by the vital 'statistics, may be
greatly accounted for as a result of
the good work of the consumptive
hospitals. chief ancon wh'oh
g i is
the
Muskoka Free Hospital for Consump-
tive.. In it • at present there are 283
patients taking the cure, of whom only
37 pay a small amount, and all the rest
that is, 246, are entirely .free pat-
ients. To keep it going costs alarg,e
amount. over 410,000 a month, and
being depenLent, ,mostly on charity,
apneal is made for funds in every con-
ceivable way. The Christmas Seal bas
been found a very •efficient helper
to gather in funds. Last year . by
means' of it aver 516,000 was secured
The Education Department approves

Schools in .the sale of Seals, and it is
