A CARD-FRoM DIR. YoUNGs PRIVATE Med
AICAL OFFICE-To THE AFFLICTED.-In this
age of progress, when science is developing itself
IN such manner as TO appear almost miraculous,
everything in common place is looked upon as
not worth notice. In view of this fact DR. Young
Cat 226 l-2 Dupont st, has concluded to leave the
beaten track hitherto pursued by most scientific
physicians, that Of waiting for the public to find
you out alone,) and publish to the world, as much
as may be, his knowledge of the healing art to let
those who may be in need of assistance know
where they can find relief without fear of being
imposed upon.
In continuation of this object, DR.. Young would
say, that for the past ten years he has pursued
the practice Of medicine in Of the largest cit
les in the United States, with the highest success
and that his standing as physician is without
reproach, having at one time been lecturer at the
University of Pennsylvania on venereal diseases,
&c.
Upon all Of these considerations, DIR. Young
has confidence in Introducing himself to the pub
lie, knowing that they will sustain well earned
murit.
The following are a few of the many testimo-
ais which have appeared in the public journals
the last few years.
From the Boston Medical Journal
Although we are opposed to the system of ad-
vertisng for good and sufficient reasons, still we
deem it but justice to say that DR.. Young is one
OF the most industrious and interchangeable VOta-
ries of the medical science in the UnitOd States.

Dr. Young, and has seen much of his practice,
