Two Worthy New Institutions.
On a recent visit to Portland, Or., we visited two institutions in that busy city which are worthy of patronage and support. The first is Portland Medical and Surgical Sanitarium, situated at the corner of First and Montgomery Streets. The institution is fully equipped to do the very best of service in the way of scientific and hygienic treatment. The physicians in charge are Drs. William Hubbard and Mary Heilesen. By the means of good, nourishing food, prepared in the most approved manner, baths, electricity (faradic and galvanic), massage, and careful, faithful, kind nursing and treatment, the sick and worn and feeble are brought back to vigorous health and taught how to keep well. The income from the work of the institution brings no profit to the owners or conductors, but is used to extend the work of the institution in benevolent, charitable, and advance work. If the sick and worn in the great northwest desire a place to recuperate, let them write for terms to the manager of the Medical and Surgical Sanitarium, corner of First and Montgomery Streets, Portland. The other institution which we visited, and which is worthy of support by those in western Oregon and Washington, is the Medical Mission for homeless, hopeless men, Ankeny and Fourth Streets, Portland. Here a poor fellow can get a good meal for five cents, at one cent a dish, and a clean bath and bed for ten cents. Here also are held earnest Gospel meetings every night, and the sick are attended by skilful physicians. The mission is for every needy soul, black or white, brown or yellow, without respect to religion or belief. We hope it may be liberally supported, and the sacrificing souls carrying it on may have the hearty co-operation of all earnest Christians.
