It can seldom be cured at home. Then, too. it is a communicable disease, especially dangerous to yoiuig children. This -was fully realized by the founders of the National Sanitarium Association, when forty years ago thi-y ere<-t«!d tha first hospital in Canada for the treat- ment of tills disease. This Tenttu^ met with much opposi- tion and even ridicule, for at that time it was firmly believed that tuberculosis was incurable. It was just one of thosr things which had to be. so why bother about it. However, it was not long before the re^^imen of this small hospital began to show results â€" ptHjplo were actually being ctu^ed â€" going home and talking about it. Such was the small begiiming of thu Muskoka. the Torouto and the Que<'n Mary Hospitals for Consumptives, wliich now provide for more than one chotisand patients. The progress made and the chaiigi; in outlook is reflected by these and the many other Qnn sanatoria throughout the Dominion, and by the large niimt)iT of public and private organizations which to-day are sparing no effort to overcome tuberculosis. The results have been that thou-sands upon thousands have bet^n given a ihance to get well, who but for hospital treat- ment, would have been IKt without hope, and the mortality from this disease has biH.'n reduced by 7.">''; . With tuberculosis oustt^d from tlie premier position to seventh place as the cause of death, there is catise for con- gratulation, hut there i.s also the danger of the feeling of self comphu'ency antl the slackening of etiort. With the goal in sight, this would IndiHKl i)e a calamity for tuberctUosis will not halt iis advance unless it is forced to do so. This can only be accomplished with the continued co-operation of the public at large. The Tnistfos of the Muskoka. the Toronto and the tjue<!a Mary Hospitals for Consumptives are den>rmined that. so far as lies within their power, no one who sutTers from tuberctilosis shall be denied a chance to get well. If you would help in this givat life saving work, please send a gift to National Sanitarium AjmodaOoa. 223 College Street. Toronto CoUingwood township.
