WOULD take this method to inform the

ter, ESQ, south of the stage-house, he intends to
follow the practice of Medicine, in all its varied
branches, and hopes to merit share of public pat
ronage by close attention to his business ten1pcr
aRce in his habits, and fair and honorable dealing
with his customers His practice, for ten years
past, has been predicaed on the principles of the
"Reformed," Tor vegetable practice) as taught in
New York City, and College at Worlhington, Ohio
To those who are uuacquainted with the system,
the subscriber would inform them that the Reform
ed practice was instituted, and medical school es
tablished in the city Of New York, in 1929, by W.
Beach, NJ. D. and now president OF the Reformed
Medical Society of the United States. DR. Is. es
idblshed board of professors in this school on the
branches Of medicine, viz: Anatomy. Physiology,
Surgery, Chemistry, Materia Medical Botany. OBJ
stetrics Theory and Practice of Physic and Medi-
cal Jurisprudence, which scientifically
taught at any medical college in the country. lG|
this practice, caomel or other poisonous miner
al is administered; but the Vegetable Kingdom is
wholly relied on to relieve the sufIerngs OF
mankind. About 1929, grant for College was
obtained from the Legislature Of Ohio, which
went into successful operation, at Worthington in
that state, and still Aourshes almost without a par
ael in the history Of any institution This practice
has nearly, in that state, supplanted the mineral
practice, as well in N. York and other states
This practice is different from all others, from the
fact that is continually improving, and diseases
and climates change to a certain degree this prac-
tice varies accordingly. Why not reform or I'M
prove the practice of medicine as we'll as any other
art science The Mineral Practice has had no
important improvement for half century and al
most aIlvegeable practitioners of the day are very
much inwant OF scientific knowledge in Anatomy,
Surgery etc. But the Reformed Practice embra-
ces the good OF all systems now in vogue, in this
country The subscriber is graduate of the Re
formed Practice well as the Old School, an
knows from experience of more than ten years,
that the vegetable practice is safe and scientif-
ic than the mineral, and fully believes the pres
en adherens of that practice acquainted practical
ly,with this extensive vegetable practice, they would
willingly lay aside their minerals; and common char
ity prompts me to say it. DI IL. an office ssu-
dent OF DIR Beach, and for more than three years in
New York city had his able counsels and consulta.
tions on patients, most every disease incident ~
a dense population. feel warranted in saying that
DIR Beach has not a rival author and practiton-
or in America lie has had FIVE gold medals award
ed him medical author from different societies,
(wha no other physician received in this coun-
try) The Improvements and discoveries that are
yearly made in this reformed medical society, by its
graduates, are sent TO the President and published
for the benefit of themselves and community The
subscriber left New York city five years ago and To-
Gated in East Bethel and has visited patients in
than thirty towns in New Hampshire and Vermont.

The most respectable and intelligent physicians
OF the times are adopting this mode of practice for
proof of which we publish the following extract of
a letter addressed to DR.. Hibard, by physician of
high standing in the State of Maine.
Ertractof letter from Dr.. J. P. ALDEN, Belfast Me-
DIR. Hibard.-Sm; Being somewhat acquainted
with the principles of the Reformed practice, as
taught in Ohio and being fully convinced of its
superior efficacy in combating disease, have avail

90 years since received Medical Diploma, since
which, have been established in practice in this
town. and If am not mistaken, with as much salts
faction TO my employers as generally falls to the lot
OF physicians in this vicinity. But however salts

to myself and if there is any system by which dis
