them goes make them agreeable and paatable, and his
seeming skill in timing and proportlong the doses TO
the age and strength of the patient and disease met our
warmest admiration His vapo and medicated baths are
truly luxurious and given in the most delicate and
agreeable way and perfectly understood by the female
attendants under the direction of Mrs Anson and Doctor
Thomson. The whole process, from what we have seen
and experienced may be undergone by the most tmid
lady or delicate child, without the least apprehension Of
danger in any point of view the contrary with much
advantage, when it is needed We would recommend
all the afflicted to the Thomsonans and to the Petersburg
In6rmary believing firmly that it is great place or the
cure of all durable diseases.
