ton Of Patients and under the direction and charge
Of William Bode, M. D., late Of Washington city,
pupil Of the celebrated Presniz, founder Of the sys
tenn.
The propietors being convinced that an institu.
ton Of this kind would be blessing to the sick and
the invads of our city and state, and those OF
sister states who would resort to this mode Of
have spared neither pains means to place this in
stitution footing with those Of this country af-
ter the plan Of those in Germany. The house has
been newly painted and furnished with new furni-
ure, and specially altered and arranged for comfort
to the patients and for The utmost efficiency of the
treatment A new Bath-house has been added to
the main house, containing all the necessary bath
apparatus. A Douche house is building which will
contain douches, r. for ladies and for gentlemen
which will have fall of from IL to ls feet, and in
volume from ! to % inches in diameter.
There are four large springs on the place at q
temperature Of $40 Farenheit, highly impregnated
with carbonc gas in constant effervesence The
water is remarkably light and all the springs are
shaded by large trees Walks lead from one to the
other, giving ample opportunity for walking. The
place is known as one Of the healhiest and most de-
lightful in Maryland.
As Hydropathc Institutions not places of
amusement, but only for the sick and iavads,
every thing more readily may and will be done to
promote their comfort and health. Neither is the
time of visiting or entering them confined to one
but they open at all seasons Of the year.
Experience having proved that the winter cold
seasons fully favorable to the progress of the
cure, the summer or milder seasons particularly
in all chronic affections No inducements will he
held to the epicue, but the table will be supplied
with wholesome and nutritious and abundant food
to restore brokendown or abused constitution, to
more than ordinary health All exciting drinks and
spicrs are entirely forbidden, chocolate, milk and
water, being the only drinks allowed.
Each patient must provide himself with a mat
ress, feather bed Of about IL lbs. double blanket
four coarse linen sheets. 3 yards long and wide;
4 long and short towels, morning gown, pair
ofirdia rubber shoes; and pint goblet or tumbler.
The price Of Board, including the use Of all the
bath apparatus, the Doctors fee, and the attendance
of the bathing servants for each patient, is Sl2 per
week-when two or three persons occupy the same
room the charge to each will be $40 per week.
All applications for admission must be made to
