to a complete illustration of the principles of Chemistry.
A new laboratory has recently been furnished for special courses in
analytical chemistry, urinary analysis and toxocology. These courses are
strongly recommended to every student.
The lectures in Physiology are illustrated by Auzoux models and by
experiments.
Instruction in Normal and Pathological Histology is afforded without ex-
tra charge,
Students are advised to prepare for their Anatomical and Physiological
studies by the dissection of the cat, dog, rabbit and frog, using Wilder &

term. Patients requiring medical or surgical advice and treatment maypresent themselves on Saturday mornings from 8 to 11 o'clock.
All examinations in thepresence of the Class are made without charge, All
surgical operations are gratuitously performed.
TERMS OF ADMISSION.
Candidates for Matriculation will be required to give evidence that they
possess a good English education. Those who are graduates of Colleges,
Normal Schools, High Schools, or have passed the entrance examination
to any recognized College, on presentation of their diplomas or matricula-
tion tickets, will be exempt from examination. Examinations will be held
on Thursday, February 7th, at 9 o'clock, A. M.
The Fee for admission to the several Courses of Lectures, payable
strictly in advance, and by cash only, is $78. Matriculation Fee, payable
each term, $5.
Pupils who have attended two full courses of Medical Lectures, one of
which has been in this School, are admitted to all subsequent courses with-
out payment of any Lecture Fees.
Students who have attended two full courses at other regular Medical In-
stitutions, are required to pay $25 for admission to their first course of
Lectures at this School, in addition to the Matriculation Fee.
The Graduation Fee, (which is not returnable), including the Diploma,
is $25. Fee for Analytical Chemistry, $10.
No student will be allowed to attend any Course of Lectures in this School,
without the certificate of the Secretary. Members of the Medical Profession
are cordially invited to attend the Lectures at any time.
Graduates of other Schools, who have been engaged three years in the
regular practice of medicine, may receive a general ticket upon presenta-
tion of their diplomas and payment of the Matriculation Fee. Students
are expected to remain till the close of the term.
EXAMINATIONS AND GRADUATION.
Students, and particularly candidates for a Degree, are examined either
daily or weekly on the subjects of the Lectures. Especial attention is di-
rected to the fact that members of the Faculty, in each department, hold
gratuitous examinations on specified days of each week, upon the subjects
of the Lectures.
MEDICAL SCHOOL OF MAINE. 11
The Faculty, believing it to be desirable for students to pay especial
attention to the primary branches during the first portion of tfyeir course of
study, in order that they may be better prepared to appreciate the more
advanced subjects in the latter part, voted seven years ago, that any student
might present himself for examination in Anatomy, Physiology and Chem-
istry (any or all), at the regularly appointed time for examination, provided
he previously- presented to the Secretary satisfactory evidence that, at the
close of the current term, he had completed at least twelve months of
actual study, and had attended a full course of lectures in this School.
Those who are examined in Anatomy are required to present evidence that
they have under competent instructors dissected not less than two parts.
The same requirements will be enforced in the cases of those who are ex-
amined in this department at graduation. Three years ago they voted ad-
ditionally that any student may present himself for final examination in
Materia Medica and Therapeutics, and in Obstetrics, at the regularly appoint-
ed time for examination, providing he previously presents to the Secretary
satisfactory evidence that, at the close of the current term, he shall have
completed at least two years of actual study and have attended two courses
of Lectures, the second of which must have been in this School. An offi-
cial record of the result of the successful examinations shall be kept by
the Secretary. The successful passage of an examination will not exempt
a student from faithful attendance upon any exercises in any department
during subsequent courses.
The examinations for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine are held by the
Faculty of Medicine at the close of the course of Lectures. Degrees are con-
ferred at Commencement.
The candidates must be twenty-one years of age, and must have de-
voted three years to their professional studies under the direction of a reg-
ular Practitioner of Medicine. They must have attended two full courses
of Lectures in some regular, incorporated Medical Institution ; and the last
course previous to examination must have been at this School. They must
deposit with the Secretary of the Faculty satisfactory certificates of good
moral character, and of having pursued their medical studies for the required
term. They must also pass a satisfactory written and oral examination
in Anatomy, Physiology, Surgery, Chemistry, Materia Medica. Pharmacy.
Obstetrics. Pathology and Practice. They must also present a Thesis or
Dissertation on some medical subject, a fair copy of which must be depos-
ited with the Secretary of the Faculty at least ten days before the com-
mencement of the examination at the close of the Lectures. These copies
are preserved in the Medical Library.
