received the following instructions
from a certain fond mother.

tributed in lots of from 40 to 1000

Help the Maine sanatorium.

The crusade against The Great White
Plague is now being vigorously pushed
in every civilized. country in the world.
Consumption was formerly disease to
be dreaded and to be met with as sub
missive a spirit as possible. Now it is
known to be durable disease ii taken In
its early stages and this knowledge
arouses the determination to meet and
overcome this malignant monster that
has destroyed so many valuable lives and
carried sorrow to so many homes In all
the years that are past. No more eff
cient agency for combating this in
sidious foe exists than The Maine Sana-
forum. The good that it has already
done ia an earnest of what it can do 1t
properly supported. 1t Is in urgent need
of funds to meet its indebtedness and to
enlarge it's accommodations to capacity
of 100 patients as originally intended.
1t now has IS patients, the limit OF its
present capacity. -.
The officers of the sanatorium call
upon all the people of the state-men.
women and children-tO come to the aid
of the sanatorium with contributions &C.
cording to their means and their interest
10 this work, which is of so much i'm
portance to the state. 1t is hoped that
this appeal will meet with a quick and
hearty response; that individuals will
send their own contributions and that
there may be those in every community
who will read this and take sufficient
interest to solicit funds from their
friends and neighbors and to organize
fa;re ord aotarto;nmanta for the henafit
of the sanatorium For information

gusta, Maine. Contributions may be
