THE ECCENTRIC SNUFF-TAKER
Should trade be dull and times go rough,
Oh, give me then a pinch of snuff;
Give roe my box a pinch to take,
E'en when I'm pleased for pleasure's sake.
When fortune's frowns disturb my mind,
And friends appear to grow unkind;
Relief I seek within my box,
My system is quite orthodox.
When a true friend perchance I meet,
I cheerfully his person greet,
A hearty " How do you ?" takes place,
Mt hen, lo !my snuff-box shows its face
pulveriforous box supplies
A recipe for weakly eyes;
That man must be a silly goose
Who thoughtlessly condemns its use.
If my proboscis could but speak,
'Tvrould often say—the dose repeat;
Each grateful sneeze and tittilatien

Reader, I pray don't think me bluff—
Mark well the hint!—'tis GarmsTorix's Snuff.

Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderato expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrhcea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily, se preva-
ent, are witted upon those unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of nubile pa-
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.
Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, however distant, will be cerresponded with until
recovered.
