THE SHELTERING ARMS
Hospital Has Been Refitted and vii
0non }Sfh


Open Again September 10Th.
That tender and untiring mission to
the sick, THE Shelterng Arms Free
Hospital No. zoos East Clay Street
after being closed two months for the
reiitting necessary in all hospitals, will
again open its doors about September
18th.
The house has been put in good work
ing condition under the supervision of
the board OF managers.
Many of the ladies composing this
board have given the same efficient SER
vice annually since the institution was
founded, twelve years ago.
There are already many applicants for
admission. and although the past years
expenses were heavy from the number of
long cases of serious illness Of patients,
the hospital, though, opens anew, free
from debt, with prospects of enlarged
usefulness.
But this prospect can only be realized
through the same generosity in the
future, which it is confidently hoped will
continue if the institution and it's object
can be fully and widely known.
1t is the only absolutely free hospital
IN the State. And so far as known in
the South.
Shelter. food. medicine, medical attend
ance and trained nurses are furnished
without charge. Even clothing is given
in case of need
Every physician of Richmond is Kind
enough to practice without charge in
the Sheltering Arms.
It is non-sectarian. It owes much Of
its success to the leading Hebrews Of
the city. The clergy and members Of
the various churches are among its best
friends and helpers.
The Kings Daughters are standbys In
this great work of helping the sick and
needy.
Too much cannot be said of the ardent
Christian who founded this most beauti-
full charity, or the noble band of jealous
women who came to her aid, and have
continued to give to this work their
money, their time, and their influence
Beginning with nothing, they have do

Hitherto their hopes have been fully
realized. With the same cause and the
same claims, they have faith in a future
support, If the cause is only known. One
way friends in the country can help the
Shelter1ng Arms is by sending boxes OF
provisions. Dry goods are also very use
1ul in furnishing many poor ones with
clothing while in the hospital, as well
as when they leave it

TWENTY MILLIONS FOR THEA
TIERS.

It is estimated that the American
people paid s2O.OOO.OOO for its theatrical
entertainment last season, and while it
may be possible to estimate the
amount spent in this way 1t is impos-
sible to estimate the amount spent an
nually in search OF health. Ocean voy-
ages, change OF climate, and many
che cher things are suggested but even
these often fail. The stomach is the
foundation of good health. II yours
is weak or disordered and you suffer
from indigestion, dyspepsia, constipa-
ton, biliousness, nervousness or inso-
mania, you need Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters at once. 1t Is the best medi-
cine in the world for restoring the
stomach to it's normal condition. Good
health is then sure to follow. Try it
and be convinced. Avoid substitutes
and limitations.
