THIS Institution is now open for the reception of patients afflicted with Nervous Diseases.

The design is to give the household as much the character of the family circle as possible, and to combine with this the most thorough medical treatment and super- vision.

The retired and healthful nature of the situation renders it well adapted to the pur- pose, and the House has been fitted up in the most complete manner for this special object.

Terms according to the accommodations required in each case.
