FREE SANATORIUM
FOR CONSERVATIVES
ANTTTUBERCULOS COMMITTEE
HAS PROJECT BEFORE TT.
1T Is Believed Money to Build Such
an Institution Could Be Obtained
by Public Subscription - Special
Meeting to Discuss Plan VIII Be
Held Soon.

The antituberculosis committee Of
Minneapolis contemplates the erec-
ton Of a public senatorium for con-
sumpuves.
The money is to be raised by pub
lie subscription. The great need Of
such an institution and the benefit
it would be to the many sufferers
are SO i'll accommodated, is consid-
cred sufficient to tempt those hnan-
cially able to open their private treas
uries and generously aid in creating
the needed fund.
The antituberculosis committee, of
which George G. Christian is chair
man, will hold special meeting in
the near future, at which the sub
ject will be fully discussed.
Since the committee began its work
last November, fifty-f1ve cases have
been looked after in Minneapolis. I'm
fortunately, with but two exceptions,
these cases were too far advanced to
hope for cures. In the last stages
of the disease the patients are sent
to the city hospital. But while at
their homes, agents Of the committee
take what steps they ca nto alleviate
suffering, and to prevent other mem
bers of the families from becoming
afflicted. The committee tries to i'm
press upon the families Of the afflict-
ed how necessary absolutely fresh ali
is to the Improvement Of patients
and also how necessary are proper
sanitary conditions.
Practically all the cases looked af-
ter, however, are charity patients
This means that the families Of the
sufferers are Ill prepared to fill the
needs Of the consumptives. A sana-
forum, run on a charity basis, would
| therefore, be a great boon. Many
cures could be effected and much
done towards preventing the spread
Of the disease in Minneapolis.
The plan would be to have the
structure entirely separate from 9th.
er buildings, located on an elevated
| site and away from the smoky dis
trict Of the city, SO patients could Sc
| cure perfectly pure air.

KNOWS MONA WILL CURE
Dillin Drug Co. Have Such Faith 1,
This Great Dyspepsia Remedy
that They Guarantee It.

It Is an unusual thing for a drug
gist to sell medicine under a guar
antee to refund the money If it does
not cure. Yet this is the way the Dill
lin Drug Co., the popular druggists,
are selling Mi-o-na, the standard dys-
pepsia remedy.
= There is no longer any need of
any one suffering or making their
friends suffer on account Of dyspep-
to cure. The percentage of cures is
so nearly one hundred per cent that
there Is little risk to the Dil11n Drug
Co., 101 Washington avenue S, in
guaranteeing to refund the money II
the medicine does not cure, and they
stand ready to do so without any
questions.
Headaches, all forms Of indigestion,
specks before the eyes, dizzy feelings
poor sleep, ringing in the ears and
all forms of liver trouble are cured
by Mi-o-na, price soc. A few days
treatment shows considerable gain in
health and a cure speedily follows.

They Entertain with Clever Show at
the Dewey.
Al Reeves Burlesquers at the Dewey
this week contrive to entertain their audi
enoes very cleverly. The chorus shows a
happy combination of personal attractive
ness with good voices well trained and
pleasing ability In the dancing line. The
two burlesques offered are original and
full of snappy humor. "a Chinese Sunny
moon" Is clever travesty full of the best
of the recent Chinese music and funny
situations. The closing skit is "a Merry
Go-Round' by Andy Lewis and Aaron
Hoffman, and it is fitted out with some
new songs and other merriment.
The olio introduces Van der Koor in
legerdemain. He is not only clever and
original in his feats, but entertaining
with his "patter." Andy Lewis and
Maude Elliott, with other assistance, make
good In skit called "The Tout Evelyn
Penner, a coon shouter with good voice,
catches the fancy Of the gallery. Devine
and Williams do turn with songs and
banter that is rather tiresome. Mullen
and Corelli are clever in their acrobatic
turn and Al Reeves gets full many q
laugh with his parodies and gags. Alto
gether it's an enjoyable burlesque show.

NOT A BOOK ISSUED
Nothing Doing at Library Branch In the
Old CITY Hail..

A branch Of the public library has been
established for almost week In the old
city hall. Nicollet avenue and Second
street, and not one book has been taken
out.
It was expected that the shelves would
be extensively used by the lake jewellers
and the business men who go back and
forth to their homes on the cars. But
no, the loneliness of Stygian night has
prevailed.
4 Frank M. Van Lew, an experienced
librarian, has. charge of the books. There
is q large reading-room connected with
the library, and also separate room for
ladies'. Notwithstanding all the prepare
lions. the only report Is nothing doing"
Later in the season, when the lakers have
done with carrying rakes. garden hose,
stove pipe, laundry stoves and other ia
miliar dunnage to their summer homes,
they may tarry en- route to the station
to pick up bit Of light reading.
