Is rather clever carpenter and made thla windmill with only a hatchet and saw at Blackwell Island, N. T. R Norman. Leprosy has been the dread plague I of the ases. Almost with the begin ning of history the awful disease takes its unique place as the one moat hope less of all known afflictions. It is not nnlv the most boneless, but the most revolting and worst of all it alone of all dread diseases forces the armct ed one to meet his fate single handed Lnd without the assistance of friends. Lepers in America are treated quite wen as in otner countries, out ai I it la difiirraceful. Lenrosv Is seldom met with in ths United States tat the ' conditions are not generally klown. At present there are in thla ccfcintry tvA places for the care of the lener. One In New York and another In Louisiana. New York's leper colony consists of only, four members at tne nreannt wrttinr. Three Chinese and one Pole. It is located on Blackwell'e island. The Louisiana colony has about 10 lepers. There are not in the entire United States more than ' known cases, although it is estimated that there ate many more unknown tn the slum districts of our great cities. The Hawaiian islands have many and they, kre as far as possible centered upon Leper island. The conditions here are awful. The lepers are for the most mrt annnnrted hv charity. The hovel In which they live are unsanitary and tend to aggravate the disease. Leper Island was made famous by the late ITnther Tiamien. who of his Own voli tion went to the lepers as amlsslonary to help and cheer tnem. Hnllnd has three homes for the lep ers, two are supported by church and I one by the government. According to the last renort the government hospi tal for lnners had three men, 42 women,! four boys and two girls. The home af fords separate Quarters for the male and female patients. Also other quar- obtainable in the entire world. There's a heap of satis faction for a maa in shaving: himself.
