Hospital in connection with'his resi
dence at the comer of 4th Ave. and
llth street.
The work of construction, is now
practically complete, and a reporter
for the Advance was given a chance
to inspect the-building and view the
conveniences provided for the work
which it is expected to do.
The Hospital proper is two full
•stories high, facing on 4th Avenue.
It is a frame structure but in its
building every cdre has been taken
to provide against the inclemencies
of Minnesota winters and to reduce
the noise, of persons moving about to
the lowest minimum. Sound dead*
eners have been placed between the
iloors and beneath each joist and
studding, with the result that persons
below will scarcely be able to hear
any movement in the- rooms above
or in the adjoining rooms.
The arrangement of the interior of
-ihebuildin#is admilrable for the^ur
poses. Entering the main door un
der the portico, the visitor steps into
a large reception hall. To the right
is the private consultation room of
Dr. Manson, who will have his office
at the Hospital. Opening from this
is the dark room, designed for opti
cal work when examinations by the
use of electric light are necessary.
On the left of the hall is the general
practice office, where all ordinary
treatment will be administered and
minor surgery practiced. To the
rear of this room is the drug and
supply room.
At the rear of the hall, on the left,
a door opens into a large, well lighted
ward room, furnished with four hos
pital beds, for the accommodation-of
such patients as do not wish a private
room.'

the right are the broad stairs
leading into the second story and the
entrance into the kitchen, where the
food for the pajtients will be prepared
and which, by the way, is located in
the residence, proper, and so cut off
from the Hospital that none of the
seents of cooking meals can pene
trate.
All the woodwork onthe lower floor
is of Antwerp finished oak, a subdued
color that is pleasing and restful to
the eye. The floors are of oak and
maple, with borders, all finished in
oil. The walla are frescoed in colors
harmonizing with the woodwork..
Ascending to the second floor, at
the right at the head of the stairs is
the nurse's room, which is connected
with every other room by
an electric annunciator. Push but"
tons conveniently placed will enable
the physician or patient to instantly
summon the nurse in charge at any
hour of the day or night.
Passing along the hallway, the first
door opens into the operating room,
where every convenience for use in
modern surgery will be provided. The
walls and woodwork of this room are
finished with white enamel and tbe
floor covered with linoleum, insuring
absolute cleanliness, which is one of
the first essentials of successful sur
gery. Opening into this room is the
sterilizing room, where will be kept
the instruments and other accessor
ies, and where the operator will pre
pare for the operation. A sterilizing
oven will be placed here and all

Much Needed Public Utility is
Supplied by Private
:V.5? Enterprise,
Nearly every city of tbe size of instruments,
Worthing}on has 'for some time past
contained a hospital where surgical
operations could b£ performed Hnder
the best conditions, and the patients
receive the care of trained and com
petent nurses. The need of .such an
institution has long been realized by
the medical fraternity of our city,
tnit the way to secure it did not seem
4o be open until Dr. F. M. Manson
took it upon himself to provide the
needed utility and began the work
of the erection of the Worthington
bandages, etc., will be
treated before use upon the patient.
On the left of the hall is a large
bathroom, Equipped with bathtub,
supplied with hot and cold water,
which by the way is soft water, twice
filtered through brick filters, insur
ing its purity. All the accessories of
a modern bathroom are provided. The
remainder of this floor is devoted to
rooms for patients. Ample provision
has been made for sunlight.
On this floor the woodwork and
walls are all white finished, the door
trimmings being of brass, except. in
the operating and bathrooms, where
nickle has been substituted.

equipped hospital at their service will
be as uniformly successful. Much
of the success of an operation de
pends upon the care of the patient
after the operation, and the best
known methods are now offered to
the public at Worthington.
The work of furnishing the hospi
tal is not yet complete but its doors
will be opened to the public within
the next week or ten days, and we
hope it will receive the undivided
support of our citizens.

Since the conference was held
here in 1901, it has been placed upon
a self supporting basis, so that be*
ginning with Wednesday morning,
meals of substantial nature will be
served at a cost of ten cents per

An addition to the kitchen which

To Have a Band.
If the plans of some of our ruusio
loving people do not fail Worthing
ton will soon have a brass band
equal to any in this portion of the
state.
Arrangements have been about
completed whereby Wilson Abbott
the competent instructor of the
Adrian band will remove to this
city and devote his time and atten
tion to the work of building up a
tint Class musical organization of
which our citizens may well feel
proud.
It is tbe intention of those inter-'
ested to secure a set of instruments
to be owned, by a oorporatoi and to.
secure men df musical ability to play
them, and to this end they are in
viting the co-operation of business
men and citizens generally. Thus
far they have met with much en
couragement, and the Advance
hopes that every citizen will do his
share in the work when called upon.
We need a first class band and
have the talent in our midst for
such an organization and sufficient,
encouragement should be extended
to inspire the best efforts in this
direction.
