Simon Leopold Will Go To Sanitarium Monday.

Simon Leopold, proprietor of The Model Clothing Co., accompanied by Mrs. Leopold, will leave next Monday for the tuberculosis colony of Aurora, 111,, there to take the sanitarium treatment for his lung trouble. Mr. Leopold had a thorough examination made by a Chicago specialist a week ago, and was advised that his right lung was involved in a manner that demanded that he get out of his store at once and he has hastily competed arrangements for closing out the stock and expects to spend at least two months in the sanitarium and hopes thereby to overcome the trouble which threatens his life. Mr. Leopold contracted a severe cold some time ago and this he was unable to throw off. If he relieved' it the relief proved only temporary and gradually it settled down until he contracted a hacking cough, which was his first signal for alarm. An x-ray examination of the lungs disclosed the extent of the infection and his right lung is involved to an extent that demands immediate treatment in the best tuberculosis hospital.
