THE JACKSON HEALTH RESORT 
 
 DANSVILLE, NEW YORK 
 
 '^ ri r\f-' ^ ' ^ INSTITUTION, for many years known 
 as ■• Our Home on the Hillside," was estab- 
 lished for the scientific treatment of invalids. 
 a-^v.- I \ lit J) and for recuperation and rest in cases of 
 overwork and nervous exhaustion. Since its 
 foundation, in the year 1858. thousands from all parts of the 
 American continent, the West Indies, and Europe have here 
 found health, rest, and the advantages of a delightful home. 
 Even in cases where the underlying disease has been incur- 
 able the methods employed have been singularly successful 
 in relieving .symptoms and prolonging life, particularly in 
 affections of the heart and kidneys. 
 
 The Jackson He.alth Resort is conducted as a distinct- 
 ively Health Institution and not as a fashionable resort. 
 Regularity of life and freedom from noise and social 
 
 excitement prevail, thus securing long periods of rest, whue 
 at the same time rational recreation and amusements are 
 amply provided for. Although the comfort and welfare of 
 the sick are the first considerations, every opportunity is 
 provided for those who desire to spend a pleasant and 
 profitable vacation season. 
 
 Situated in a hillside park of sixty acres of woodland 
 and lawn, laid out with walks on the level and up the hill, 
 the Institution with its surrounding cottages has often been 
 likened to a ■■ city set on a hill." 
 
 At a distance of half a mile in the valley below is the 
 picturesque town of Dansville, with its churches, schools, and 
 railroad facilities. Population. 4.500. 
 
 Thk Elrvatiom of the-. Sanaiokium i:;, Niijf Hun^ired 
 Feet above Sea- Level. 
 
Natviriil Sanitary l^ot ation. — The Sana- 
 torium is located among ihe hill:, uf the beautiful Gene- 
 see Valley country of Western New York, where Nature, 
 by her wise provision of genial climate, pure mountain 
 springs, quiet stretches of forest and field, extended and 
 varying landscap-s encircled by sheltering hills, has pr'j- 
 vided the most favorable conditions for the success of 
 its work, // is exempt from malaria, and the vital statls- 
 •:;s justify its claim to favorable distinction in respect to 
 diseases caused, or prolonged, by environment. This is 
 probably due to its elevation above sea-level, swift run- 
 ning streams, dry, porous soil, evergreen forest-growth, a 
 climate equable and genial for its latitude, and more 
 especially to the exceptional dryness and purity of the 
 air. The atmospheric conditions are advantageous to 
 ifferers frcim liver, kidney, throat, or skin affections. 
 ! lie nights of the hottest summer days are cool ; the 
 ■inters are exceptionally mild, with but little snow, 
 le Meteorological Bureau reports and the weather 
 ip of the Smithsonian Institute show that the narrow 
 strip of Western New York State, forming the northerly 
 
 •, = PRO.-^CH FROM TKt NORTH 
 
divide of the Alleglieiiy chain draining into Lake Ontario. 
 enjoys a much less luimiJity and moisture precipitation 
 than the surrounding country ; indeed, not until one 
 approaches the pine forests of Northern Michigan, or the 
 equally inhospitable dry plains west of the Mississippi 
 River, can be found any such low annual average. it 
 is only of this small section, within a regk^n of 1.200 miles 
 of the Atlantic coast-line, that this can b-j said. 
 
 By a coincidence, or something mcjri-. tliis is also the 
 .seat of a highly-developed fruit culture ; the famous Genesee 
 
 Valley grainfields, vineyards, and orchards supplying grains, 
 fruits, and vegetables in greatest perfection and abundance. 
 Connected with the Sanatorium grounds is a large vegetable 
 and fruit garden, with greenhouses for flowers and table deli- 
 cacies in the wintf-r. 
 
 Mountain Spring Watt-r of great remedial 
 value flop's from rocky heights tar above any por.slble source 
 of contamination. Dr. Titus Munson CL)an of New York 
 City, who has mad'- a specialty of treatment by natiu-:il 
 mineral waters in this country and abroad, writing of this 
 spring water, says: ■It has fallt-n to my province tu vi;,it 
 
many a mineral spring, both American and foreign, and tu 
 prescribe tlieir waters for many t;inds of clironic ailment:;.. 
 In theii' main constituents and total amount of mineralization 
 they correspond closely to the famous Berkeley Springs of 
 West Virginia, the Gettysburg Springs of Pennsylvania, the 
 Bethesda of Wisconsin, and also the noted springs of Con 
 trexeville. in France, all deservedly reputed, particularly in 
 the cure of kidney and bladder troubles. It gives me pleas- 
 ure to testify to the curative value of the Sanatorium Springs 
 as I have found them in practice. Cool, pure, and spark- 
 ling, they are unsurpassed for table use." 
 
 The remarkable freedom of this water from organic 
 matter is proved by the analysis made of it at the Columbia 
 School of Mines by Professors Rickets and Cameron, their 
 certificate showing that it contains only ^'\,\\i of a grain to 
 each gallon. Dr. A. N. Bell, editor of the S,inii,in\ui. 
 under whose direction this analysis was made, states that 
 ■■ the water is of exceptional purity." 
 
 THe Stately Main Bvailding, three liun 
 dred feet long and five stories high, is the center about 
 which cluster a dozen cottages, all with light, airy, steam- 
 
 heated rooms, and all commanding loveliest views of hills. 
 valley, and town. This central building is of brick and iron 
 construction, and absolutely fireproof. There can be 
 no assured safety from fire in a large hotel — no matter 
 whether the outer walls be of wood or brick— in which the 
 beams, floors, and ceilings are built after the ordinary man- 
 ner of wooden construction. The only positive security is 
 complete isolation of each floor, by making the intervening 
 medium of fireproof materials, such as brick and iron. This 
 is the method carried out in the main building. It is as 
 absolutely fireproof as human skill and science can make it. 
 It CANNOT burn down. Expense has not been spared to 
 render it complete in sanitary appointments, modern con- 
 veniences and the comforts of home. Among its advan- 
 tages are light, airy, ventilated rooms, heated by steam, 
 lighted by electricity and tastefully furnished : open grates 
 in public and many private rooms; safety elevator : electric 
 bells in every room; telegraphic and telephonic facilities; 
 spacious halls and corridors kept at uniform heat ; broad 
 promenade piazzas; perfect sewerage — water-closets and 
 soil-pipes connected with separate systems of pipes and 
 
w 
 
 
drains giiardv'd in the most effective manner. No house 
 can be more free from the possibility of sewer-gas infection. 
 
 Two elevators of the Plunger type, which is the safest 
 known, connect with the ground and all the floors and roof. 
 
 The main building and cottages are lighted through- 
 out by electricity. 
 
 The Medical Department. — The chief of 
 the ni.'dical staff is James H. Jackson, M. D., who has 
 filled this position since the year 1876. His associates are 
 Kate J.Jackson. IVl. tX, Walter E, Gregory. M. D.. and 
 James Arthur JacksLin, [vl. IJ. This permanent staff, as- 
 sisted by four associate physicians, have the constant per- 
 sonal care of Ih'- medical department. 
 
 The Xreatment. All the most approved forms 
 of ballis .are: in use. notably the Moliere d'hernio-Electric. 
 Turkish, Russian, Electro-Thermal, Salt, and Sulphur Baths. 
 also, Mas.sage, Swedish Movements, Inunction, Electricity, 
 Light Gymnastics, Vacuum Treatment, etc., as indicated in 
 ea.di individual case. Massage, an impcjrtant measure of 
 treatment here, is given by experienced masseurs. The 
 famous Nauheim baths, especially applicable in heart dis- 
 
 ease, and the Sprague Hot Air Apparatus for treatment of 
 rheumatii.m and diseases of the joints, etc.. are employed. 
 Much use is made in special cases of psychotherapy. 
 Drugs are not relied upon for curatiiv purposts. but are 
 used very conservatively, as it is believed that better and 
 safer means are available. 
 
 The treatment comprehends a careful regulation of the 
 daily life, including diet. e.xercLse. rest, and recreation, with 
 cheerful and helpful social and religious influences. 
 
 This Institution is not a water cure, nor a diet- 
 cure, rest-cure, air-cure, nor movement-cure, for the 
 reason that not any one of these terms expresses its 
 leading idea, which is 
 
 HealtH hy Riglit l^ivinjj- 
 
 Obedience to the laws of life and health is 
 enjoined as the first requisite to recovery. This is 
 an educative as well as curative process, and it 
 comprehends the work to which the Sanatorium is 
 pledged. 
 
FF|. F?; OP MANAGlNi; PIT 
 
Remedial agents which medical science and ex- 
 perience have proved valuable — the resources of 
 Nature, as sunlight, pure air and water, electricity 
 and, equally if not more important, the mental and 
 moral forces — are drawn upon and applied accord- 
 ing to individual conditions and needs for the res- 
 toration and preservation of health. 
 
 The apartments and apparatus for trt-atment are exten- 
 sivt-- and most complete, occupying a series of rooms on tlie 
 first and second floors in the front of the main building, 
 light, airy, and commanding beautiful viev/s. The bath- 
 rooms for gentlemen and ladies are on different floors, and 
 are so constructed as to secure personal privacy. 
 
 Special departments for throat and nose, gynecological 
 and rectal treatnv-nt. 
 
 The Moliere THermo-Electric BatH. 
 — The therapeutic claims made for this bath are ; First 
 its remarkable power to equalize the circulation, making it 
 of special value to those who suffer from congestion and 
 inflammation of internal organs. Second — its unrivaled 
 effi.:iency in removing waste material from the system. 
 
 Thus, in neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, catarrh, and malarial 
 affi-'Ctions, it is one of the most effective measures of treat- 
 ment. Again, in many organic diseases this bath greatly 
 relieves suffering and often prolongs life, as in Bright's dis- 
 ease. For persons weary and debilitated by care or over- 
 work it is a most lu,'<urious and strengthening bath. 
 
 In its general therapeutic effect the Moliere resembles 
 the Turkish, but, owing to the combination of electricity 
 with heat, perspiration is induced at a lower temperature, 
 and with less taxation to the system. Moreover, in the 
 Moliere, the patient breathes the ordinary atmosphere of 
 the room, while in the Turkish, air at a temperature of 200 
 degrees is sometimes taken into the lungs, which in some 
 cases is undesirable. 
 
 Electricity. — During the past few years great ad- 
 vances have been made in the scientific application of 
 electricity for the removal or relief of disease, and as a 
 consequence this remedial agency has come rapidly into 
 favor with the best medical practitioners, particularly in the 
 treatment of diseases of women. In recognition of this 
 fact, and knowing by observation and experience the curative

value of electricity, especially when employed in conjunction 
 with hydro-therapeutic measures for the restoration of in- 
 valids, the management of The Jackson Health Resort has 
 given .special attention to this department, making it com 
 plete in every detail, and furnishing it with all the latest and 
 most approved apparatus for giving the treatment in its 
 varied forms. Electro-Thermal Baths, with stationary bat- 
 teries, also portable Galvanic and Faradic batteries, are env 
 ployed. A superior Holt;^ machine is used for the adminis- 
 tration of Statical Klectricity. 
 
 SwedisK Movements. The apartments for 
 these i.vere pl.nnnt-d and furnished by the leading authority 
 in this specialty, Dr. George H. Taylor of New York. They 
 were constructed and set up under his personal supervision, 
 and acknowledged by him as his best work. 
 
 Physical Culture. — This attractive depart 
 mtrMit is under the personal charge of Mrs. Walter E, Greg 
 ory. The Delsarte system is taught and practiced, and is 
 found invaluable in its adaptation to the needs of invalids. 
 The old and the young, the weak and the strong, the awk- 
 ward, nervous, and self-conscious, find benefit in the 
 
 practice of these exercises, which, as applied to health, 
 mean the strengthening of the nerve centers, gaining poise 
 and self-conlrul, relieving the nervous strain or tension from 
 which the majority of Americans suffer, inducing sleep, and 
 conserving the vital force instead of wasting it. Physicians 
 of all schools give this system cordial reception and sup- 
 port. 
 
 Rest. — Nowhere are the surroundings more condu- 
 cive to healthful repose and the conservation of vital power 
 than at the Sanatorium. Everything unites to give freedom 
 from care, relief from the vexing impositions of fashion, 
 fruni social dissipation, irregular habits and tendency to 
 overwork ; while at the same time all the arrangements, ex- 
 terior and interior, lead to the cultivation and attainment of 
 thorough mental and physical rest. F"or an hour daily the 
 housf- is kept quiet for ■■ silent hour." 
 
 Diet. — Impaired nutrition is a feature of nearly all 
 cases of chronic disease or exhaustion, and the value of 
 nutritive treatment and medical supervision of diet, so long 
 advocated and practiced in this Institution, has come to be 
 recognized by the medical profession generally.

The culinary department is in charge of persons quali- 
 fied by special study and training in the art of cooking, so 
 that food is not only prepared in a manner to please the 
 taste, but upon scientific principles which insure the best re- 
 sults nutritively. Aside from carefully selected food-ma- 
 terials, in the way of cereals, meats, fish, and fowl, and 
 vegetables in large varieties, the table is abundantly supplied 
 with rich milk, cream, and fresh creamery butter, also with 
 fruits at all seasons. 
 
 Dress. — Although no particular style of dress is worn 
 or rer^uired. simple and healthful clothing Is urgently recom- 
 mended. The ladies resident here dress physiologically, 
 their costumes being made in a variety of becoming styles, 
 and they will gladly assist in the arrangement of both under 
 and outer garments. Suitable materials can be pur- 
 chased in Dansville. and persons accustomed to fitting and 
 making can be reasonably employed. Unphysiological dress 
 ■ accounts in a great measure for the premature fading and 
 loss of Ivalth of American women. The physicians dis- 
 courage ..Mianging the dress for mere appearance during the 
 day. Kuvy the obligation to do so often proves a burden to a 
 
 feeble person. It is advisable that all should avail them- 
 selves of the opportunity here afforded to dress healthfully. 
 Only a very simple wardrobe is needed. All articles not 
 required for the comfort of the wearer, especially costly 
 jewelry, are only a care in a household where there is no 
 attempt at fashionable display. To many over-dressed, 
 nervous, invalid women the adoption of a simple toilet 
 would alone insure much better health, a wider scope for 
 unused powers, and a far greater degree of happiness. 
 
 Social and Religious Opportunities. 
 — The influence of mental conditions upon the body, or the 
 power of mind and spirit when rightly directed to aid in 
 overcoming disease, is recognized and made available. 
 Every effort is made to promote harmonious and helpful re- 
 lations between the members of the Sanatorium family. 
 At the same time kindly restrictions are placed upon those 
 who are inclined to overtax themselves socially. 
 
 Courtesy without formality, thoughtfulness of others 
 without officiousness, especial kindness to strangers and to 
 those in any way peculiarly unfortunate, moderation in all 
 things, self-discipline enabling one to resign care and 
 
;HPIS11AM IIMIOH CHAF! 
 
anxiety, courage and patience to await Nature's slow but 
 sure processes, hopefulness, the use of whatever tends to 
 recreate or pleasantly divert the mind — all are earnestly 
 encouraged and cultivated by those having the responsible 
 care. 
 
 The guests, as a rule, are chronic invalids, a large nuni 
 her remaining here many months. It is a little world in 
 itself — a home in the true sense, not a hotel or hospital or 
 fashionable resort — and provision is made for the religious as 
 well as for the social and recreative wants of the household. 
 The beautiful chapel, enriched by the offering of many 
 friends, with its sweet-toned pipe-organ, stained glass, and 
 profusion of flowers at all seasons, has aptly been called 
 "the heart of the Institution," Here, each morning after 
 breakfast, all who desire assemble for worship, a privilege 
 which is appreciated by feeble persons. Christian Union 
 and other religious meetings, always unsectarian. are held 
 during the week, and regular services on Sunday. 
 
 Connecting the chapel with the main building is a spa- 
 cious corridor finished in native wood, lighted by numerous 
 windows, beautified by many flowering plants, and made 
 
 cheerful by an open fireplace. This is also the reading- 
 room, which is supplied with all the principal daily, weekly, 
 and monthly periodicals, and has a well-selected library. 
 
 Instruction. -To create the best conditions for 
 the recovery of the sick, to increase popular knowledge on 
 sanitary subjects and add to the general intelligence in 
 regard to the laws which govern healthful growth and de- 
 velopment, to point out right ways of living and warn against 
 the false and fatal — this is the purpose of those having the 
 Institution in charge. 
 
 The influences of the Sanatorium life are educative, both 
 as to the philosophy inculcated and the methods employed. 
 Lectures on health and how to regain and preserve it are 
 frequently given and are of great value in instructing, en- 
 couraging, and stimulating to improvement. Incalculable 
 benefit is often realised from information thus gained, Vi'hich 
 has enabled many persons to live at home without sickness, 
 and to insure good health to their fatiiilies. Feeble guests 
 are made comfortable during lecture hours in easy chairs. 
 Wheelchairs are at the service of those unable to walk 
 about the house 
 
Vlt-V... Ol H- 
 
Outdoor Life. — A .:haracteristic feature is the 
 outdoor life led by the guests, who are encouraged to live 
 much in the open air at all seasons — in the winter on the 
 roof and piazzas, and in summer under the shade-trees on the 
 mountain-side, swinging in liammocks. or lying on cots or 
 blankets on the grass. These regular periods of open-air 
 life have a curative value not easily estimated. Those who 
 need it have help in getting out and in, and are made com- 
 fortable by attendants. 
 
 A subsoil of gravel and sand, causing the ground to dry 
 rapidly after rain, and making the air. both night and day. 
 singularly free from chill and dampness, render life out of 
 doors entirely practicable, without risk of inducing or aggra- 
 vating throat, lung, rheumatic, or other like affections. 
 
 Thf asphalt roof, reached by the elevators, is the most 
 popular and populous part of the main building in pleasant 
 weather. Even the coldest days of winter do not deter the 
 courageous ones, warmly wrapped and tucked into cots, from 
 spending hours here daily during the entire cold season. 
 Soon after breakfast, life begins on the housetop, and con 
 tinues. with thf int'-rvals of treatment and dinner, until the 
 
 sun drops below the western hills. And here the sick and 
 weary breathe the pure air of this upper region, resting tired 
 bodies and refreshing mind and spirit with long, uninter- 
 rupted periods of repose. Steamer-chairs, with gay rugs, set 
 to take in some lovely picture, and the presence of a fev/ 
 promenaders who take prescribed exercise by a certain 
 number of turns up and down -ten times across being 
 a mile —suggest comparison to a deck of an ocean 
 steamer. 
 
 A nine-hole golf course is connected with The Jackson 
 Sanatorium. Its grounds are located at the head of the 
 Genesee Valley, v/here from all points views are unsurpassed. 
 Nature has done much in the way of streams, bunkers, and 
 high drives to make this a most desirable course. 
 
 Croquet, lawn-tennis, and other outdoor games, also 
 wheeling, riding, and driving are enjoyed in summer. At 
 all .seasons of the year, home games, frequent concerts, 
 stereopticon e.xhibitions. amateur theatricals, and other 
 entertainments furnish indoor amusements. In the amuse- 
 ment room are shuffleboard, ping pong, pool, and billiard 
 tables.

Elxpenses depend upon size and location of room 
 and upon the desire of the guest as to meal arrangements. 
 The Sanatorium is conducted upon both the American and 
 European plan. Upon the former, the rates are from 
 $21.00 to $45.00 per week inclusive of medical care, room, 
 and board. Upon the latter, the price for medical care and 
 room ranges from $14.00 to S35.00 per week. The prices 
 charged for ;i la carte meal service are very reasonable. 
 During the winter months special rates are made on some 
 of the cottage rooms. Special rates will be quoted, upon 
 application, to Physicians, Clergymen, and Teachers. 
 
 These charges secure the skill and personal care of 
 physicians, the kindly services of trained attendants, and the 
 advantages of unequaled therapeutic appliances and equip- 
 ment for treatment. In addition to this the guests of The 
 Jackson Sanatorium enjoy all the comforts and conveni- 
 ences of a first-class hotel. The cuisine and general service 
 are most liberal, the aim of the management being to hold 
 the institution to a high standard in every respect. 
 
 The main building contains suites of rooms, with or with 
 cait private bath, for those who desire them. The least 
 
 expensive bedroom is light and airy and its tenant is 
 entitled to all the privileges of the house, to the same care 
 and attention of the physicians and to every courtesy of the 
 attendants enjoyed by the occupant of the most luxurious 
 suite of rooms. 
 
 As only 250 guests can be accommodated, rooms should 
 be engaged by letter in advance. No extra charge is made 
 for Moliere. Turkish. Russian, and Electric Baths. Massage. 
 Electricity. Swedish Movements, the Sprague Hot Air Treat- 
 ment, or the Nauheim Baths. 
 
 For night service, special nursing, baths, meals, or open 
 fires in private rooms, a reasonable extra charge is made. 
 
 CHildren taking treatment are charged the same 
 as adults. If they are boarders only, special arrangements 
 will be made. Mothers bringing young children should, to 
 avoid being unduly taxed, provide attendants for them. 
 
 Weekly settlement of bills is required, unless other 
 arrangements are made with tlie management. 
 
 Medical Consultation. — The consultation 
 fee is $5, whether or not the person remains for treatment. 
 Object ionaiile cases are not received.

special Departments. — The Gynecological 
 and Throat and Nose departments are fully equipped for 
 surgical as well as for medical treatment, and are in charge 
 of skilled and experienced specialists. Trained nurses can 
 be readily secured. Good nurses and attendants for ordi 
 nary needs, and for children, can he procured in town at 
 reasonable rates. 
 
 Opportunity is provided for facial massage and treatment 
 of the hair and head, 
 
 Articles for Individual Use. Patients 
 are required to provide for treatment purposes and outdoor 
 wrapping half a do^en towels, two or three bath sheets 
 (linen preferred), a comfortable or woolen blankets, A 
 head-cushion or pillow, covered with some colored material, 
 and provided with straps for ease in carrying, will be found 
 very useful. If not convenient to bring these articles they 
 can be purchased at reasonable rates in the Institution ; also 
 cots and hammocks. It is desirable to bring one or two 
 small flower vases and other ornaments for one's room. 
 
 The Sanatorium is open during the entire year. 
 
 Taking into consideration the commodious building, 
 planned and constructed to meet every need of the seeker 
 after health, rest, and quiet : the perfect equipment for treat- 
 ment ; the location unsurpassed for health and beauty ; the 
 entire freedom from demands of society and fashion ; the 
 frequent lectures and lessons on hygiene ; the provisions for 
 recreation and amusement; the attendance and care of a 
 staff of skilled and experienced physicians, and the services 
 of trained and competent nurses and other helpers, the 
 Sanatorium unquestionably offers an unequaled combina 
 tion of sanitary appointments and therapeutic appliances 
 for the restoration of thi; sick and recuperation of the 
 exhausted. 
 
 The Jackson Health Resort is easily accessible, being on 
 the line of the Delaware. Lackawanna & Western R. R.
