amount be added that of the increased cOs'
of travel, it is evident that $500 would DC
moderate estimate of the amount saved Dy
him, Indeed, students residing IN the Ne"
England and Atlantic States can, by going
to first class medical colleges in the Wesl'
save from $500 to $500 in the cost OF medl-
cal education. Surely these great money
facts cannot fail to interest every reader, ana
cause him to bring them to the attention OF
all studying or about to study medicine
Parents and preceptors win, we feel sure
thank us for this valuable information.
But there are other facts now to be given
of even greater interest; facts which sho"
that a student can not only save $500 IN the
cost of his medical education, but that ne
can gain one full additional course of lee
lures. That is to say, the student will, IN
seventeen months, obtain three instead OF
two courses of lectures, and save also $500.
Among the many new catalogues of medl-
cal colleges recently issued, that OF the
Louisville Medical College louisville, Ky.,)
is exceedingly interesting. Indeed, the
facts presented therein are so important that
we must present them to our readers.
1t appears that the Faculty of the Louis
vile Medical College have been also elected
to fill the vacant chairs in the Kentucky
School of Medicne-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 irst-class instis
tutions. both being connected, we see, with
the Association of American Medical Col.
leges, of which the colleges at New York and
Philadelphia are also members.
From the fact of this Faculty teaching il
these two great medical colleges, there spring
( some curious and interesting results.
Students who enter the Louisville Medica
in September or October, can, at the close o
that session in February, at once enter tn,
Kentucky School of Medicine, which com
msnces it's session in March and closes a
the end of June. In the following Septem
Der or October, these students can again
enter the Louisville Medical College an,
graduate in February. Thus having, il
seventeen months, passed three complet
courses of lectures; whereas, IN seventies
months, any other Faculty can give but tw
courses OF lectures.
The students entire fees for the thre
courses in these two Louisville colleges are
we see, but S1s7, and his board for seventee
months but $500, or 1867 for the entire co.
of his medical education, board, and all fee
included.
When it is remembered that in Easter
colleges the student gets but two courses
lectures, and has TO pay for these $40, wit
$3.50 for his board $500 in alp, 1t will b
seen that in Louisville he gets one fu
. course Of lectures more in the same time, an
saves in fees and travel fully $500 4 gre,
economy Of time, a great SaUiHg of money, an
1 tie gaining Of one entire course Of lecture
/ Indeed, it is evident from the facts an
f figures afforded to the public in these cat'
D logues, that IN no other 1cay, n, no other cit
and IN no other Medical Colleges, can a stude
an Screntsen months obtain three .f,H courses
lectures and get sage in money fully $500.
Every student or guardian or parent WI
reaps these remarkable facts should send
3 once for catalogues. It is stated in the cat
: logues Just issued, that all applications
!, them should be addressed simply to the Des
= of the Louisville Medical College, Louisvin
q KY.
We see that five per cent. of the class a
, granted beneficiary privileges.
We also see in the catalogues issued, tn
> students who desire 1t viii be educated
e the graded system adopted at Harvard, Ma
t sachusetts.
r One is not surprised to read, after learnir
e these remarkable advantages offered by th
9 Faculty, that ninety-fve students have be-
:. graduated by it in the last year.
q The class list as published shows studer
from almost every State the best eviden
of the fact that the public throughout tt
country is rapidly obtaining and appreeis
u ing the valuable information here given
s our readers.
e Itseems only natural that so many studeI
J. from the Northern States should seek
winter the mild and temperate climate
Kentucky for thus they escape their har
winter weather, and return home in time
the cool Northern summer
" Louisville, the geographical center oftl
e country, bids fair to be one of its great,
If medical centers-
IT While newspapers seldom furnish the
o formation which we have herein given,
ere satisfied that our readers Will value the
interesting and profitable facts, and "
, agree with us in saying that all which is
u interest to the family circle belongs of rig
l. to the family newspaper.
