The Health-Reform Institute.

We are happy to acknowledge this week, an addition of two thousand dollars to the subscriptions of stock in this enterprise. The Health Institution is now a fixed fact. A site of over five acres in the highest and most beautiful part of this city, has been purchased. It is within a few minutes ride of the depot, but yet quiet and retired. On the grounds there is a large, nice building, comparatively new, in which operations can be commenced as soon as the necessary utensils for such an Institute can be got together. It is now confidently expected that it will be in practical operation, as soon as the middle of August.
Such an Institution as this is a present necessity with our people, not only as a place where the sick can be treated, but where people may come and see the practical workings of the Reform, and learn more of its principles, and how to carry them out at their homes. The Health Reform must be put in practice by us all. But many are ready to say, I do not know how. Very well, here will be a place where you can spend a few weeks and learn; and it will be an investment you will never regret. The few weeks that we spent at the Institution of Dr. Jackson in Dansville, N. Y., last fall, we esteem as a part of the most valuable experience of our life.
The church here, and those who have the management of this enterprise are alive to the importance, and necessity of the health movement. Who else wishes to share in the work? Now is the time. Let the pledges come in.
