MisDICAL PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTION,
No. 6, Upper James-street, Golden-square, London.
Patronized by dig Nobility, and under the Imperial caveat of bis
Ityal Highness the Prince Regent, for administering Dr.
WI !TIERS'S RUSSIAN PROPHYLACTIC, and applying
the roURMAI.IN TRUSS to the general convenience of the

afflicted.
THE RUSSIAN TOURMALIN TRUSS, is the
only effectual Remedy for Ruptures, at present known to the
world. It had Tong been a hereditary secret in the medical branches
of a distinguished Family, and used with so much success, that
Ru"thres are now nearly erased from the catalogue of human mi-
tt tits in that country. It is prepared partly front the Totirmalin
of Suitt It America, the electric and consolidating properties of which
have long been viewed by the learned with silent admiration.—
Dr. W. purchased the secret originally for 21 years, and this being
the last year of that term, he has obtained the Royal Guarantee
to render it more extensively useful till the Fiest of January next,
when the Patent-Right reverts to the Proprietors in Russia. No
hopeless Cases are engaged, and this distressing Complaint requires
the earliest application. Price from £2 to £lO.
The RUSSIAN PROPHYLACTIC is an effectual cure for de-
bility, gleets, and seminal weakness. It radically cures a certain
disorder in every stage, and by occasional application externally,
it totally prevents infection, with so much certainty, that the
`Doctor will forfeit £bn if it ever failed.

Dr. W. and Co. cure Cancers of all kinds, the Gout, Rheuma-
tism', White-Swellings of the Joints, the Scurvy in Its most viru-
-I,nt stages, and all disorders of the Eye and Ear, where the struc:
ture of the organ is not imperfect, and give advice on tli other ca-
sual disorders. Fee Li ,but no fee required on consultation. Being
Members of the Royal College, regularly bred in every branch
of the profession, their testimonials may be seen, and these medi-
cal subjects familiarly discussed.
Dr. Withers and Son attend daily for medical and surgical
consultation ; the books are laid every Saturday before the Com-
mittee, who give their joint opinions on each case. The advan-
tages of this plan to country patients are incalculable, as the
names or personal attendance are not required, and all post paid
letters are answered by them.

A. GENTLEMAN consulted Mr. Spilsbury, at
oh Dispensary, 15, Soho-square, last Summer, having an
encrusted eruption of the pustular form covering his hands, at..
tt nded with violent pal n, and swell ing of theglands df the arms from
irritation. His nights sleepless, and his helpless state (his hands
heing useles-) rendered this case in so young a man distressing.
Much of the virulence had been produced by previous improper
treatment. Being directed to a mild sedative plan, the aggravated
symptoms gave way, and the PATENT ANTISCORBUTIC
DROPS restored his bangs to their natural state; and he now
expresses himself as enjoying a better state of health titan than
the two preceding years.
