o invite those with a tendencyto the disease, and whose occupation, involving close confinement inbadly lighted, badly ventilated rooms, long hours and poor food,offers fatal conditions for the development and spread of the disease.Twenty-eight patients have returned to their homes in greatly im-proved health. The work continues to grow and the desperate need shows no signsas yet of decreasing. Dr. Mary Eddy, aided by three nurses, a visitingphysician Dr. Naameh Nucho, and a corps of helpers, have all theycan do inside the Sanatorium, while other phases of the work call forall the time and help that Mrs. Hoskins can render. During the year there have been a number of remarkable deathscenes and testimonies. These in their pathos, expressions of grati-tude, and triumphant faith, lend a peculiar reality to the heroic serviceof the workers and the desperate nature of the fight against the dreaddisease, that more than repay all who are concerned in the conductof this supreme work of mercy.
