vile Medical College have been also electedy
to fill the vacant chairs in the Kentuck
School of Medicine-one of the oldest and
best medical colleges in this country; this
great compliment having been extended to
this Faculty on account of the triumphant
success of the Louisville Medical College.
As the result, this Faculty teach in the
Louisville Medical College from September
to March, and in the Kentucky School of
Medicine from March to July.
Both of these colleges are frst-class insti-
tutions, both being connected, we see, with
the Association of American Colleges, of
which the colleges at New York and Phila-
| delphia are also members.
From the fact of this Faculty teaching in
these two great medical colleges, there
| spring some curious and interesting results.
| Students who enter the Louisville Med
| ical in September or October, can, at the
close of that session in February, at once
enter the Kentucky School of Medicine,
| which commences its session in March and
closes at the end of June. In the following
] September or October, these students can
again enter the Louisville Medical College
and graduate in February. Thus having, in
seventeen months, passed three complete
courses of lectures; whereas in seventeen
months, any other Faculty can give but two
courses of lectures.
| The students entire fees for the three
courses in these two Louisville colleges are,
We see, but $1S7, and his board for seven
teen months but 5000, or 1887 for the entire
cost of his medical education, board, and
all fees included.
| When it is remembered that in Eastern
colleges the student gets but two courses of
lectures, and has to pay for these S340, with
$3.50 for his board $500 in all, it will be
Seen that in Louisville he gets one full
course of lectures more in the same time,
and saves in fees and travel fully $500. A
GREAT ECONOMY OF TIME, a GREAT SAVING
OF MONEY, AND THE GAINING OF ONE EN-.
TIRE COURSE OF LECTURES. Indeed, it is
evident from the facts and figures afforded
to the public in these catalogues, that IN NC
, OTHER WAY, IN NO OTHER CITY, AND IN NC
OTHER MEDICAL COLLEGES, CAN A STUDENT
IN SEVENTEEN MONTHS OBTAIN THREE FULL
COURSES OF LECTURES AND YET SAVE IN
MONEY FULLY $500.
Every student or guardian or parent who
reads these remarkable facts should send Al
once for catalogues. 1t is stated in the cata
; logues just issued, that all applications fol
them should be addressed to the Dean O.
, the Louisville Medical College, Louisville
r Kentucky.
E Wesee that five per cent of the class are
5 granted beneficiary privileges.
We also see in the catalogues issued, tina
students who desire it will be educated b,
! the graded system adopted at Harvard
) Massachusetts,.
One is not surprised to read, after learn
/; ing these remarkable advantages offered b.
5 this Faculty, that ninety-fve students hav
J; been graduated by it in the last year.
. The class list as published shows student
q from almost every State; the best evidence
: of the fact that the public throughout thi
!. country is rapidly obtaining and appreciat
. ing the valuable information here given t.
:: our readers.
b 1t seems only natural that so man
p students from the Northern States shoul
: seek in winter the mild and temperat
n climate of Kentucky; for thus they escap
e their harsh winter weather, and return HON
n in time for the cool Northern summer.
; Louisville, the geographical center of thi
t, country, bids fair to be one of its creates
7 medical centers.

are satisfied that our readers will value thes
