Mr. Editor: The inhabitants of the | civilized world recognize the white plague as a _great scourge, and since | experience gives assurance that pre- | caution is prevention, that in. early | stages cure is possible and that in- curables may be relieved and so cared for as to endanger no one else, the general public calls for hospitals where people so afflicted may be placed under the best conditions, and the community may learn what those con- ditions are, and taught to practice hab- its and live under conditions that will eradicate the disease. One essential to cure is clear, pure air with only normal moisture, Sea- fog is usually very unfavorable— river or pond or swamp-fog worse. To be ideally situated a hospital should have a large area of open ground of clean forest (especially pine) between its ;bmld' 8 and other habitations. The | site should be above the ordinary fog- banks, supplied with abundance of pure water and flooded with all the sunshine . there is. | Does the purchased site fill these | simple requirements?

Belfast, Feb. 8.—Winston Spencer Churchill's incursion into Ulster, which threatened at one time to cause san- guinary rioting and serious loss of life, hag ended without even a broken head. The first lord of the admiralty and John E. Redmond, leader of the Irish natlonalists, spoke from the same platform on the home rule bill. Mr. Churchill outlined the intentions of the government with respect to self- | government for Ireland and declared | Boom Norwich AND TRADE AT HOME Norwich has a future as well as a past, and the strength and importance of that future will be ex- actly in proportion to the amount of confidence and progressive action which you show today, NOW BOOST. - The last ten days has shown what spirit and concerted action can accomplish.

Mr. Redmond appealed to Ulster “in | the name of Ireland and the Pritish | erpire, justice and good will” to lend | its aid in seitling the Irish question wisely, well and forever, The presence In Belfast of the larg- est wmilitary force ever gathered to eserve the peace between Irisn fac- tions, combined with a drenching rain to check the bellicose ardor of the anti-home rulers, whose hostility was mainly vented in booing and hooting. But that an ugly terhper was aroused and that the civic autherities were alarmed over possible consequences is shewn by the fact that on their advice Mr, Churchill left the eity by a special train two hours before the anneunced time of his departure, thus sappo.nting a huge crowd which g sembled later to give him a mixed send off. Mr. Churchill's speech was deliv- ered before an audience from which every eifort had been made to bar all hestile elements, It aroused tremen- dous enthusiasm, but at one stage a groap of suffragettes attempted to create a disturbance and several of | them were ejected.
