The N ational` Sanitarium Association has now provided a place in Graven-' hurst for patients who are able to pay, and this has proved its usefulness. by saving hundreds of lives since it was i opened three years ago.

Deducting receipts of this transient nature amounting to 3377.000 from the re- ceipts and specialex-pendltnresof $199,815 it lrit a decit of $288,000.
