gss- The question is often asked-"Why is it
that DIR. j. e. Young is so successful. while 9th
er advertising Physicians are failing from day to
day?'' The answer must be should be, plain
" apparent to All it is that he understands his
professon and attends to it; and as his practice
increases, his knowledge extends. SO close has
been his application to his unprecedented prac
ticc, that he is perfect master of his profession.
and can insure all rclef from their troubles; and
while Others are daily sinking into the oblivion
from which they were never fitted to be delivered,
his course is onward and upward placing him at
the head of his arduous profession. So great
has been his increase OF business that he has
been oblige to associate with himself two other
physicians both Of extended knowledge and prac-
tice. We would advise all afflicted to call upon
him in preference to any other Physician We
are Informed that he treats entirely on the vcge-
table System, and will always warrant n perfect
cure. His office is at 21O Clay street, opposite
the upper corner of the Plaza.
From the Times ami Transcript.
There are thousands in this State suffering for
want of scientific medical treatment, and they
fear TO apply to physician. because they have
been deceived. or their friends have been, by
some of the charlatans who infest the communi-
ty and who publish themselves rs good physicians,
professors. etc To all such we unhesitatingly
recommend Dr. j. G. Young, asa physician in
whom all can place confidence He is q man o.
eminent and profound study, good surgeon. an
honorable man, und one who can sympathise with
persons in affection. His standing as n physician
and gentleman are both gunrantecd--thc first, by
his medical works, which are an honor to their
author and the extensive and highly successful
course of practice with which he has been honor
ed since his advent in California; and the latter
by his numerous patrons and large circles of ac-
auaintances. We say to all afflicted, call on him
as he will at once state the case to you, and you
may rely upon his Judgment. We like his prin-
ciple-no catre nopay.
From Professor Htchc0ck
