INDIANAPOLIS, IND., OCTOBER 1894. 
TO THE MEDICAL PROFESSION : 
The undersigned hereby respectfully announces, that he 
has equipped and opened a Private Lying-in Hospital. The 
usefulness and urgent need of such an institution, which affords 
to unfortunate women refuge, secrecy and safety in confinement, 
and which assures to those women having serious complications 
during labor the advantages of special skill and appointments, 
need no argument in this place. The populous State of Indiana, 
having no such institution, demands it, the great population of 
its Capital City furthers the aim of secrecy, and its easy 
accessability both make it a natural and desirable location. The 
Hospital is situated in a quiet residential part of the city. Its 
equipment meets all modern demands for safety and comfort. 
Kind, skilled and discreet nurses are in attendance. The previous 
experience of the undersigned as resident physician in the 
Lying-in Clinic and Children-Hospital in Zuerich, and the Citizens, 
Hospital in Basel (Switzerland) has especially prepared him for 
this undertaking. 
For further particulars apply to

wifery, Central College of Physicians and
