v REMARKS. Physical Culture. Physical Culture is taught in the most approved form by a thoroughly competent lady instructor. The movements are selected not for mere show and intricacy, but as a health- ful exercise, to give tone and strength to the muscles of the body and grace to deportment. Both the German and Swedish methods are used, the former for elegance, the latter for strength. Miss Lavilla Bilger, the teacher of Physical Culture, attended D. A. Sargent's celebrat- ed gymnasium at Harvard College, andvstudied the German method under Christian Eberhard, and the Swedish under Hartrig Nissen, and under Dr. Anderson and H. S. Ander- son of Yale. v . Advice. If you wish your daughter well educated, have her take the B.S. or B.A. Course. Greek may be omitted, and, instead, either French, Spanish or German taken in class. e Number of Studies. One of the greatest difficulties the teacher has in educating is the desire of some pupils, with the advice of their parents, to pursue too many studies at the same time, and studies too advanced. This is especially the case in schools for girls. Thoroughnvess in a few studies is better than a superficial knowledge of many. Then the health of your daughter is of paramount importance. - ' ' B. L. Course. ' ' This Course is for the beneiit of those who have not the time nor the means to pursue a more extended course. It is about the same English course that is pursued in nearly all the female colleges in the United States. ' In connection with this course the student may study the Ancient or Modern Languages, Music QVocal or Instrumentalj, or Drawing and Painting. . . . ' Special Course. ,A pupil may make a specialty of any branch taught in the College, as Music, Drawing, Painting, Mathematics, the Natural Sciences, etc. Should one wish to qualify herself for teaching Music, Elocution, or other branches, she can do so here, as superior advantages are provided.

Equipment. A library of 1,000 well-selected volumes, accessible to the pupils at all times. A refracting telescope, six-inch object-glass, made by Alvana Clark8r Sons. Eighty pianos, including one Behr Bros! Concert Grand, one Steinway Grand, one Knabe Grand, one Everett and one Chickering Grand. One thousand dollars' worth of aparatus. , EXPENSES. The session is divided into two terms. No student is received for a shorter period than a term or.what remains of it at the time of her entrance. No deduction for absence during the first three or the last five weeks of the term. This is to avoid the great and growing evil of deferring matriculation for two or three weeks after school opens, and leaving just before it closes, a practice hurtful to the pupil and unjust to the school. In case of sickness, deductions will be made at the discretion of the President. Daughters of regular ministers of evangelical churches instructed free of charge in the Literary Department, but will be charged for all extras. Per Term or Half Session. PAYABLE IN ADVANCE.

We give 10 per cent off on the above rates to two pupils coming from the same family hood. 2.- We will give 5 per cent discount to clubs of ive or more from the same neighbor- The above are our best terms. Please do not ask for reductions or any other 'grounds than those enumerated above. We give the best accommodations and employ the best tal- ent, and we cannot offer lower rates without damage to the high grade and efficiency of our school. - No deductions will be made for pupils leaving school before the end of the term. A pupil who begins an extra study will be charged for the same until the end of the term. This regulation is intended to benefit pupils as well as teachers. For a pupil to begin Music or any extra, and discontinue it at the end of a few weeks, it is a waste of time and money to the pupil, and a source of great inconvenience to the teacher. All damage done to buildings or furniture will be charged for in bills. A sufficient sum of money sufficient to pay for uniform and text-books must be deposited with the principal at the time of entrance. No pupil is eligible for a medal or diploma if her account in any department is not paid or arranged for, or if she does not enter the school or department at its opening. Parents, please bring in your daughters promptly. The first day is the best day to enter. Care has been taken to make this Catalogue exhaustive, but it will give us pleasure to furnish additional information on any points omitted or insufficiently explained. -28 I 'L
