HOSPITAL FOR POOR CONSUMPTIVES.

The Free Hospital for Poor Consumptives at Philadelphia is an institution which has accomplished much good, and is destined to do more. They have 90 beds at the White Haven Sanatorium and are supporting 40 to 50 beds in Philadelphia for dying cases. It costs about $3,000 a month to keep the good work going, and they appeal to the public for assistance in sums no matter how small. A bed can be endowed by the payment of $5,000 at one time, or a memorial cottage by the payment of $10,000 at one time. They say in their appeal that the dollars of the many are worth more to the consumptive poor than the dollars of the few, hence their appeal for small subscriptions. The treasurer of the association is Edward A. Miller, No. 404 Walnut street, Philadelphia, Pa., to whom money may be sent.
