This is Seminary of high grade for
both sexes, with fine facilities for giving
n finished education, as well as training
for teaching or business. The Institu-
tion combines, on the one hand, most
pract'c course of study, and on the
oJher, all the comforts and care of q
home.
THE BUILDING
Is pronounced by ali visitors, to be un-
equalled in its arrangement and COM
forts. The entire building is heated with
Rourne's Low Pressure Steam Apparat-
us. A beautiful plate radiator gives out
heat as desired in each room, without
smoke or dust. This apparatus, during
the winter now closing, has proved u
grand success. There is no other mode
of beating that can at all compare with
this. The building is in two separate
apartments, one for ladies and one for
gentlemen. ~ e
- The rooms are al carpeted and nicely
furnished. The pupils all dine at the
same table with the visitors and Facul-
I ty, live under the same roof, worship at
the same family altar, and, in short, re-
ceive the parental care and oversight of
II well ordered and comfortable home.
TIE MUSICAL DEPARTMENT
y Furnishes instruction on the Piano,
Organ, Guitar, Violin, Base Violin
short, on ull instruments; also, in Vocal
Culture, Thorough Bass and Musical
Composition; also, a weekly concert for
Orchestral practice. Prof Schwinger,
Principal OF this department, is Ger
man gentleman of long experience and
untiring energy, and an acknowledged
master ofhis profession. Being tuner,
the instruments are always in fine order.
This department now takes rank with
the best.
PAINTING AND DhAWlr6
We invite attention to this depart
ment. The work here is done In the
very best style. Like all other depart
ments OF the Seminary, this shows for
itself. We cannot do better than invite
the public to come and see for them
selves. This department has been high
ly complimented by fine artists from the
East. Miss Virginia Bell directs this di-
vision with great skill.
e4a FACULTY.
We call attention to our Faculty. We
could employ teachers at One-third the
cost but we are determined to make this,
in fact, a first class Seminary. Our Pro-
fessors are all gentlemen of high ability,
are all regular classical graduates of our
best colleges and universities, and are
devoting their whole time to their work
with an energy that will distinguish the
students of this Seminary. w
BEGINNERS.
We consider nothing so essential to
success in any literary course, as thorough
drilling on the First Principles during
the first few terms. Hence beginners
are not left to the care of assistants, or
cheap teachers, but receive the instruc-
tion OF the very highest talent in the
Seminary. Eti AtI
MEDICAr
Students wishing to study Medicine
alone, oraccompaniedw with other studies,
will find here superior advantages al
small expense.
