At Meriden HospitaI-Nohody Knows
Patients Receiving 1t.

There are two free beds at the Meri-
den hospital, one for men and the
other for women. Patients are admit
ted to them on the proper application
and recommendation whenever there Is
a vacancy. No special beds are used

a charity patient.
One of these beds is given by the
vote of the hospital directors and has
been established a dozen years or so.
The other one is maintained by fund
created by the ladies' hospital COM

raised by them.
