CLINICAL MEDICINE.

Abundant material for clinical instruction is furnished by the dispensary and hospital clinics. Outside dispensary work also furnishes each student of the graduating class with acute cases of disease which he can treat under the supervision of the prefessor of this department. In addition to physical examination and diagnosis, the special aim will be to teach the practical application of homeopathic principles in therapeutics.

ANNOUNCEMENT.

The course in the college of Dentistry of the University of Minnesota leading to the degree of D. M. D. (Doctoris in Medicina Dentaria) covers three full years of eight months each. The regular courses are classed as freshmen junior and senior.

An optional fourth year, known as the preliminary course, has been especially established for a class of students who find themselves unprepared to pass the preliminary examinations required for entrance into the regular college course. It should

commend itself to parents who are thinking of placing their children in a professional school, and have not fully decided which special branch of the healing art they shall study. The studies laid down in the curriculum fit the student for entrance into the general medical department, and if it be found, after the work done in the preliminary year, that the student is better fitted for medicine than dentistry he will be advised accordingly. Students entering this preliminary course are allowed to take studies in the regular course, such as they may find time for, and all advanced work done in this year will count in the succeeding year's work, and will make it much easier and afford time for special work in and out of college hours. The studies available to preliminary students are Histology; Dental Anatomy, human and comparative, and Prosthetic Technics.

It is especially desired to call the attention of the members of the profession throughout the country to this course and to ask their support. They can materially assist in establishing this voluntary course on a compulsory basis by sending students who apply to them for apprenticeship directly to the college where they can receive the fullest instruction under experienced teachers.

Students are thus started right and the methods begun in the laboratory are later applied in the infirmary, still under the guidance of the several professors.

Dental students are placed upon the same footing during the first two years of their course as medical students. They are required to pass the same entrance examination and pursue the same course of instruction in anatomy, chemistry, physiology and histology during the freshman year, and in addition take dental anatomy, operative and prosthetic technics and embryology.

In the junior year work in anatomy, physiology and materia medica will be completed, and in lieu of the other studies taken by medical students the dental student receives instruction in operative and prosthetic dentistry, both practical and didactic, the time being about equally divided between the latter two subjects. He also receives instruction in dental pathology, orthodontia and elementary crown and bridge technics, together with infirmary practice. In the senior year the student devotes his entire time to the study of the practice of dentistry in all its phases; operative and prosthetic dentistry is continued, and full clinical instruction is afforded in oral surgery, the administration of anæsthetics, physical diagnosis, orthodontia and the treatment of fractures of the maxilla and cleft palate.

In this institution the dental student substitutes the practice of dentistry for that of medicine, and obtains at the end of his
