The Norwood Instifmte.

The incompatible endowments of Washing
ton, not only as political, social, and literary
center, but as munificently equipped field for
education, are obvious. The varied opportunities
enjoyed by students in the splendid Capital of
their country are unique and almost over
whelming. To systematic and utilize the vast
materials so lavishly provided is the mission of
the private schools.
The Norwood Institute occupies the finest
location in this beautiful city. Its four cheer
full, commodous buildings are conveniently
connected, and all open on large playground
in the rear One approach is on Fourteenth
street, where the principal line of city street
cars maintains direct communication with every
part of the corporation. The main entrance is
on Massachusetts, avenue at the Thomas Circle
the highest ground within the city limits. At
this point Vermont avenue, NJ, and Fourteenth
streets intersect Massachusetts, avenue, one of
the noblest streets in the world, traversing the
entire city with its broad expanse unbroken by
car tracks, heavily shaded, and bordered by the
finest residences in Washington. Thomas Cir
Gle, with the fine private properties surrounding
it, the picturesque reservations of Highland
Terrace, and the grounds of the Lutheran
Church adorned by grand statue of Luther,
form an extensive and lovely prospect before

Norwood prepares for any college; but its
pupils can complete full collegiate course
within its own walls. The Norwood School
diploma ranks high in the pronounced opinion
of men of national reputation. But the aim of
the school is higher than can be expressed by
any diploma To send forth its pupils equip
ped for the battle of life, endowed with all the
grace and charm of refined and cultured woman
hood is its endeavor. The educational facili-
ties it offers are attested by the reputation of
the principals, and by the names of the pro-
fessors and teachers. For testimonials to its
success in the great work of training young
girls to ''be PUBLISHED after the smlitude of a
palace" it refers to all who can speak of it from
personal knowledge.

The Takoma Park Loan and Trust Company
is prepared to put up and sell residences on
most advantageous terms. They afford every
advantage consistent with safe business prac-
tices.
The miles of well-graded streets, the shaded
avenues, and the wooded glens present one OF
the most charming sights that can be conceived.
Sligo Creek flows through the park for a dis
tance of two miles, with driveway along its
bank, presenting varied panorama of hill and
valley
The Takoma Springs water has been long
noted for its perfect purity and for its medicinal
properties. 1t is sweet and cool at mid summer
as in mid-winter. It's merits were known a
century ago, and many Washington families
have used it as table water for years.
Takoma Park embraces a thousand acres at
an altitude above Washington varying from
800 to 400 feet. The avenues, nc'uding walks,
are sixty feet in width. Road machines and
men are constantly employed grading, gravel
ing, and improving the streets. More than
100000 have been expended iu this way by
Mr. Gilbert without cost to the owners of lots.
The word ''Takoma," signifying ''heaven," OF
gifted up" or smear heaven" aptly describes
the park, which is ''lifted up" above the heat
and the miasma OF the Potomac flats.

TAKOMA PARK BUILDING.

Elaborate New Offices Being Fitted Up.
A fitting ad djunct to the remarkably successful
story of Takoma Park will be the new building
of the company at 620 street, which is now be-
ing remodeled from one of the handsome old
mansions that line that thoroughfare between
Sixth and Seventh streets 1t adioins the Baltic
building on the east, and will be one of the hand
soonest business structures on the street. The
frontage is 40 feet. wide arched entrance
will lead to the main Office of the Takoma Park
Company which will be elaborately equipped
for the transaction of the constantly increasing
business The walls are salmon tinted. Chan
deliers of real bronze furnish the artificial light
when daylight fails through the large plate
glass windows.
Handsome composition columns, similar to
some of those at the Capitol, and which were
placed in position forty years ago, support the
ceiling above. These columns are models of
beauty and durability, firm and beautiful as the
finest-grained marble, and, for all the years that
have passed, are without a scratch. A bay win
dow at the back of the great room presents a
light and attractive addition. The whole will
be furnished elaborately with accommodations
for the force of officers and clerks.
AT the right of the entrance hall, which will
be floored with tiling, will be the private Office of
Mr.. B. F. Gilbert. This also will be richly fitted
up and will be one of the most attractive fea-
lures of the building.
AT the end of the hall will be the directors
room, which will be appropriately furnished,
and will provide pleasant and roomy apart
ment well adapted for its purpose.
1t may be stated, without exaggeration, that
the new offices of the Takoma Park Loan and
Trust Company will be among the handsomest
in this city, which boasts of many admirably
equipped offices
The basement floor will be devoted to the
offices of the Takoma Park Springs Water Com
pany The upper floors will be let for Offices
for which the rooms are admirably adapted.

success of Takoma Park is familiar story, but

Takoma Park has been noted for its beautiful
villas, many of them erected by men prominent

Medical Department of Georgetown
University.

Four doctors-Young, Howard, Liebermann,
and Elliot-all now dead, once wel-known
physicians, met at Dr. Young's Office In the year
1S49 for the purpose of establishing another
medical college in the District of Columbia.
They communicated with the president of
Georgetown College in reference to working
under the charter of that institution. On No
vember of that year they received notice of
their appointment as professors of the new de-
partment, all the details having been arranged.
The first course of lectures commencedin April,
1851, in a commodious building erected for the
purpose on the corner of Twelfth and + streets
northwest
The first officers of the institution elected
were DR.. Young as president and DR.. Howard
as register, which title was changed afterward
to that of dean, with faculty as follows: Noble
Young, NJ D., Professor of the Principle and
Practice of Medicine; Charles Fl. Leiberma mn,
M. D., Professor of the Institute and Practice
of Surgery; Flodoardo Howard, M. D., Profes-
sor of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and
Children; johnson Elliot, M. D., Professor of
Anatomy; Joshua Richie, M. D., Professor of
the Institute of Medicine; James M Austin, M.
D., Professor of Materia Medica and Therapeu-
tics;J w. H. Lovejoy, M. D., Professor of
Chemistry; Samuel w. Everett, NJ. D.. Ad-
7.
The college has continued it's course of in
struction without interruption to the present
time, each year conferring the degree of M. d.
upon number Of gentlemen. In 1864 it was
the only medical college in existence in the
District, and was in a most fourishing condi-
tion. During the year 1868, needing more
ample lecture-rooms to accommodate their large
and growing classes, they removed to the corner
of Tenth and streets, and reorganized with
eight professorships. This institution to day is
second to none in the Union. Its courses are
long and thorough, better fitting and educating
its pupils to enter upon their responsible duties
and who will be proud to say they have grad
uated from college where none who are not
competent can obtain degrees.
A few years ago, again demanding increase
of facilities, commodious building was erected
on I'll between Ninth and Tenth streets north
west. This building is provided with model

be, and which undoubtedly is, second to none

This firm commenced business in 1862 in
Schneider's building, No.271 NOW 1912 Pennsyl-
vania avenue In short time, finding their quar-
ters too small for their rapidly increasing busi-
ness, they were compelled to secure more room
by the addition of rear building, and in few
years portion of another floor, which was all
of the building that could be spared to them.
Ten years ago, because of their inadequate
quarters, they purchased the site now occupied
by them, and moved their plant into the four
story building thereon in March, 1882, after re-
modelling and strengthening it to suit the busi-
ness for which they intended it, and occupied
the whole of it with the exception of the corner
store on the ground floor.
In 1889, being again in need of more room,
they tore out the corner of the building-which
contained an old-fashioned chimney place and
blind windows-and erected the tower and
added fifth story, thus, not only gaining con-
siderable space, light, and ventilation, but max
ing their building one of the most imposing ed
ifces in the city of Washington.
They have recently again made another i'm

Importers and Dealers in Dry Goods.
[See Cut on Page 3l.l
What marvels in reconstructing Washington
Governor Shepherd performed in a physical
sense the same sort Of marvels Woodward 81
Lothrop have in measure performed for the
commercial community. They brought from
Massachusetts,, where they had been in busi-
ness, the energy and enterprise which pushed
their own efforts to successful issue, and ex-
cited healthy emulation on the part of their
competitors for the favor and the patronage of
the purchasers of dry goods in Washington.
1t isn't so many years ago-only about thir-
teen-since Woodward & Lothrop made their
first devoir to the public In a modest building
on Seventh street. 1t was soon apparent that
there was something ''new" in town. 1t didn't
take the ladies long to find out that dry goods
revolution was at hand; that the old-time
methods of doing business would have to 90
to the wall if the new firm didn't. The new
firm speedily impressed upon the public the
fact that they were not here on holiday out
ing, but had come to stay. They caught public
favor as it hew Their business methods be-
came popular, and their progress has been
phenomenal. In very few months it became
necessary to have enlarged quarters, and large
building on Pennsylvania avenue was leased
and occupied.
Year by year this firm has increased its popu-
larity and extended its business. The great
structure at and Twelfth streets, of which we
present cut, is but one side of the buildings
they have erected and now occupy. The build
ings extend through to Eleventh street, and in
clude an annex, which was found absolutely
necessary to accommodate trade which seems
to constantly urge them beyond the limit of
their capacity, however great the firm may make
it. Thirteen years ago there was not a dry
goods establishment worthy the city within its
territory. To-day there are twenty that would
honor any city, and greatest of these Is the house
that made modest beginning on Seventh street
about thirteen years ago.
