the name of SamUel G. Dixon, tho Health
Commissioner of Pennsylvania, as thnt
of tho most distinguished cltltcn of the
Keystone State.
"Ills wonderful work in scienco nnd In
clcnrlnK our Stnto of dtscaso entitles htm
to tho grntttudo of every resident of
Pennsylvania,
'HVo who unfortunately suffer from a
malady as terrible tn Its ravages through
out tho modern world as was leprosy In
tho middle ages, feel that no other In
this Stato Is closer to our hearts than
tho 'gentleman who has devoted so much
energy to bringing us back to health and
protecting future generations from the
