For the cause that lacks assistance, Far the wrong that needs resistance, Foa the future in the distance, And the good that we can do. THE SANATORIUM, NELSON, founded 1891, under the auspices of the Mayor and members of the Nelson City Council, For the Special Care, Nursing, and Scientific Treatment of Invalids. Telegraphic address — F. 0. Box Clapham, Nelson. 16 Medical Superintendent — Herbert Clapham* Practicing Medical Botanist, Nelson, New Zealand. Latitude, 43 S.—Longitude, 173 E. After considerable trouble and diligent search for a suitable position and town possessing a climate tr cessary for the treatment of consumption, and all other pulmouary diseases, the Proprietor and Medical Officer of the Nelson Sanatorium, after many years of travelling, durirg which period he has touched almost all the civilised purls of the w >rld, has selected Nelson as being the "ideal" spot. The climate of Nelson is simply perfection, being noted for its even and regular temperature; for the absence of fierce and sudden changes in the weather; for its mild and rational winters ; for its delightful, exhilarating and heaithy : atmosphere. The proprietor having satisfied himself that Nelson was in every respect suitable for the Clapham-combination treatment of Consumption in all its stages, which he has discovered after many years of anxious study and research realised the necessity of building a Sanatorium for the special care, nursing, and scientific treatment of patients. The Nelson Sanatorium is situated on an elevated, healthy, and beautiful position, specially selected, which commands a magnificent view of the se», city, and mountain scenery, while the considerable area of ground it occupies is beautifully laid out with trees and in gardens, and with such pleasing surroundings the life of the sick patient is made less monotonous.

The Sanatorium is replete with every comfort, while the sanitary arrangements cannot be excelled, and patients receive every possible attention from trained nurses and servants engaged under the direct supervision of Mr Clapham. The success which has attended the Clapham-combinalion aire of coiisump ti<>n is be,ng known fnr and wide, and patients aie coining from foreign countries to receive treatment at the Nelson Sanatorium. Of course, the details-of the Clapham - combination mode of treatment are at present kept ercrei, but for g-neral information it is sufficient to state magnetism plays an important part. A power is employed over which the- inventor has 'complete ontrol. utilising electricity in a peculiar manner, and by this wonderful discovery not only the g< rms of this diie disease are attacked and destroyed, but the system generally is built up and restored tj its normal condition of h alth. It is not, as in Dr Koch's treatment, necessary to attack the disease with microbes, the tfTct ol which treatment has, in many cases b en more disastrous to the patient than the origiual di^ejise,Mr Clapham Intends in a short time* to make known to the whola world his methwd of treatment, when he will bavr the satisfaction -of knowing that his. life's labours have not been in vain. Ladies in any condition of health can dep'nd upon receiving every qualified care and attention at the sanatorium. In treating the 'various complaints Mr Clapham undertakes, he employs the curative agencies of the undermentioned baths, combined with judicious treat men tof modern Botanic remedu*, avoiding in every particular minerals of all descriptions.
