DOCTOR SMITH

"AS for many years devoted his whole at.
LII tention to the treatment of private cGm-
plants. in all their varied and complicated
forms. His great success in those long stand
ing and difficult cases, such as were for
nerly considered incurablc, is sufficient t."
commend him to the public as worthy of the
extensive patronage which he has received.-
Within the last eight years, DR.. ). has. s.treated
more than % 800 cases of Private Con plants
in their different forms and stages !; a practice
which TO do ubt exceeds that of all the other
physicians now advertising in BaltiNoie, and
not single case is known, whsre directions
were strictly followed, and nedi zines taken u
reasonable time, without cIfec ting Il radical and
perinanentcure; therefore, persons al nlicted with
office, No. | |, South Frederick Street.
The afflicted should bear in mind that DR.. :.
who is the only regular physician advertising,
diseases the above ma turc, ''no matter how
difficult or long standing the ease may be-
would do well to call ON Dr.. SMITH, at his
has for many years devoted his Who'll attention
to the treatment of this class of Diseases.
His medicines are free from Mercury and all
min eral poisons +; put up in n neat and compact
form, and may be taken in II public or private
house, or while a,eling, without exposure or
hindrance from business, and except in cascs
OF violent inflammation, no change Of diet is
necessary.
Let the un fortunate bear in mind when afilic-
lion overtakes them, thatno time she uld be lost
in making plication to n compe etent ph ysicinn,
.,s they would not only obtain relief from pain,
avoid mortifcat.o through exposure, and elude
great constitutional injury, but enable their
medical assistant to be moderate in his charges
than he could justly be, where symptoms have
become confirmed or the disease more widely
diiused. The rapid advance of this truly ter
rifying disease, is sufficient To alarm the boldest
heart. When liberation and dis colored d Notch
es with racking pains, betray to the unhappy
victim the deadly poison preying upon his Vi
tails, then, "and not till them" do mary awake
to full sense of their danger.
We are called upon every few days tocure
Chronic Diseases, which were supposed TO have
been cured years ago, but instead of which,
were only check ed, driven into the system by
mercury or copavia aandthcreforcsecmst o be we'll
but in longer or 81 orter time, by some slight
cause, break out in its worst and most difficult
forms. producing ulcers in the throat nose or
roof of the mouth, eTuptions of the skn, pains
swelling of bones, etc. On account of the
number IF such which have lately come under
my care, and the immense suffering which lit
tic neglect or improper treatment in the fist
st,gcs of the disease may cause, DR.. Smith
thinks it h' duty to advise the unfortunate,
p"rf'c"t,"ly sfrangers. to he careful hat they
ar, not deceived by faise adreitisemeats oji oast
ing Yvncks who make promises which could not
hc fulfilled, eve. by the most experienced ply
scians. By neglect or improper treatment, the
patient is often redtcel to state which makes
the ease extremely difficult to cure. Therefore
he should be aware ofthe Importance of con-
sulting a skilful physician in the carly stage
of the disease.
CONSTITUTION DEBILITY
Young men beware of the pernicious indul-
scnce and almost fatal injury you inact upon
your cnstitutious, by evil examples and the
morbid influence of the passions.
How many young persons do we daily behold,
whose countenances and debiltated cOnstitu-
tons depict disease arising from that horrible
and devastating vice.
1t could be shown how attenuation of the
frame palpitation o the heart, derapgemen of
the nerv Gus system, cough, indigestion and n
train of symptom, indicative of consumption,
are often as,ribed to wrong causes, whe n in ro-
ality, they are the consequence of an alluring
and pernicious practice, alike destructive to the
mind nd body.
You who have brought this afliction upon
yourselves, why embrace the secret to your
hearts and vainly attempt to cure yourselves.
intead of making immediate application to n
skilfu physician, who, in n short time, would
restore you to perfect health, and save you from
exposure which the fatal consequences nder il
envitable?
Es- DR.. Smith gives his special attention to
the treatment OF this destructive malady. Pa
tients can be cured at home by addres ing n
letter to DR. Smith describing symptoms, and
receive IN 'dcine securely packed from Qbserva-
tion, forwarded by express or otherwise to any
part of the country.
N. B.-Persons afflicted with any Of the abov c
&C mplaints will do well to avoid toasting impos-
tiers ahs thcr foreign or native, as also the nu-
IN erous Specifies advertised a certain cure
for any and every disease. These preparations
are put up to sell but no to cure, and often do
more harm than good, therefore avoid them.
