The Mennonite Sanitarium, locat-
ed south Of Swink. Otero county
Colorado. has been erected by sub
scriptions from members OF the
Mennonite churches of the United
States and Canada and is under the
control Of the Mennonite Board of
Missions and Charities
The farm of l6O acres with about
l40 acres watered from the Catlin
canal and buildings to accommodate
sixty patients have all been paid
for. practically. without any sub
scriptions outside of the Mennonite
church.
This institution was established on
a broad basis of true benevolence
and love for suffering humanity.
While It will be under the control
of the Mennonite people. its doors
are open to all creeds As well as to
persons of no creed: and any person
suffering from consumption will be
received and cared for as long as
there is room in the institution.
Charges will be barely enough to de-
fray expenses. while the service will
be the best that Christian people
can best0w-
This being an institution where
consumptves coming to La Junta,
Rocky Ford or Swink can be cared
for without endangering the health
of the people in these cities.it seems
that the citizens of these towns
should show IN interest in the in
stitution BY furnishing the funds
necessary to pay for furniture for
the Institution, being about as fol-
lows:
Twenty-four compartments in the
four wards. cost SIS each or $500:
sixteen rooms. cost $50 each. $800:
dining room. cost $500: parlor. cost
$500: kitchen. cost 5000: rubber mat
ting and other things not mention
ed above. esst $500: amount to be
raised. 50 .e0O-
Every citizen Of Otero county
should contribute something to-
wards the furnishings of this insti-
tuition.
Any person desirious of helping in
this worthy cause will find subscrip-
ton lists with r. j. Reifel. or j. f.

Very Effective for Kid
ney, Bladder and Rheu-
matiSm Sufferer.

The function of the kidneys is to
filter and strain the impurities from the
blood, and these pass from the system
in the form of urine. Pains in the
urinary region and the small of the
back indicate that the kidneys are sick
and need treatment. Negiecting such
symptoms, brings rheumatism, dia-
betes, dropsy, and heart trouble, while
a simple home treatment will restore
and keep the kidneys in fine working
order. Being a mild, balmy healing
tonic, old and young can use with per-
feet safety. One-half ounce fluid ex-
tract Buchu, compound fluid Balm
wort. one ounce; compound syrup Sar-
saparilla two ounces; mix in a bottle.
Take a teaspoonful before each meal.
At night take another dose, drinking
plenty Of water.
A local druggist advises it and says
he fills it frequently for the best ply

but aided by Balmwort and Sarsapa-
rilla it %astonishes all who use it by it's
quick effectiveness.

SPECIAL SESSION OF LEGiSLA-
TUEE- FERvENT STAND FOR
COUNTY OPTION.

Bloomington, Ind, Sept. 21.-"We
have not even begun the APPROACH OF
the final contest. Before the victory
many men will be called upon to
change their political affiliations OF
a lifetime"
Thus spoke Governor Hanly on the
subject, Temperance and Good c1ti-
zenship,' to 1000 persons at the Har-
ris-Grand theater Sunday afternoon.
Continuing the governor said the tenn
erance forces may lose the present
battle, but they do not expect to lose
the whole war. The liquor interests,
he declared, have continued to grow
holder until now they are seeking to
control even the government itself.
Governor Hanly took up the matter
of his calling the special session OF
the legislature and appealed to his
hearers to use their influence by go
ing to Indianapolis and urging the
passage of a county local option bill.
He said:
After you have reclaimed forty-two
counties in Indiana and after l have
heard you say you are in favor OF adj
vanced temperance | have called to-
gether the legislature and have put
the question up to them. Some have
criticised me for not waiting until Jan
uary for the regular session. | think
II It is all right it is all right now,
and September comes before Novem-
Der.
1T is absurd to say / have taken
the matter out of the hands of the
people. I have only conferred upon
the people a new power. | have Civ
en- a new right, and l do not believe
you will be angry with me for SO do
ing. l will recommend the present
remonstrance laws to the general as
sembly and I want a law to reach the
whole country at the same time.
Appeals to Churches.
In an appeal to the churches. Gov
ernor Hanly said:
IF this contest is won it will be
through the sacrifice of the Christian
church of this land. What the church
needs today is a great conviction. If
the church had q conviction it would
end the saloon traffic In America in
twelve months.
after four years of my administra-
ton as governor of this common
wealth, want to say to you that Indi-
ana never needed a militant church as
badly as she does today. The Chris
tan church will either have to fight
h liquor foes or run away, and.
thank God, it can not run away.
