Has Been a Success from the Start. Its Office at the Corner Twenty first Street and Second Avenue is Crowded Daily.

A staff of eminent physicians and surgeons from the British Medical h. stitute have. at the urgent solicitation of large number of patients under their care in this country, established a permanent branch of the Institute in this city at
