MEDICAL HOUSE.
DOCTOR SMITH

HAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
11tion to the treatment of private complaints,
in all heir varied and complicated forms. His
great success in those long standing and diff
| cult cases, such as were formerly considered in
curabe is sufficient to cOmmendhim to the pub
lie as worthy Of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the last eight years,
DR.. 5. has treated more than ~ 500 cases Of
Private Complaints in their different forms and
stages practice which no doubt exceeds that
of all the physicians now advertising in Balu
more, and not single case is known, where d.
rectons were strictly followed, and medicine ia
ken at reasonable time, without tfecting rad
ical and permanent cure; therefore, persons af-
Hicted with diseases of the above nature, "no
matter how difie 1t or long standing the ease
may be, would do well to call on DIR. SMITH,
at his office, No. IL, South Frederick Street.
The afflicted should bear in mind that DR.. S.
who is the only regular physician advertising,
has for many years devoted his whole attention
to the treatment Of this class of Diseases.
His medicines are frse from Mercury and all
mineral poisons put up in neat and compact
form, and may be taken in public or private
house, or while travelling, without exposure or
bindrance from business, and except in cases of
violent inflammation, no change of diet is neces-
sary.
Let the unfortunate bear in mind when affiic-
ton overtaLes them, that no time should be lost

heart. When liberation and discOored Plotches

We are called upon every few days to cure

been cured years ago, but instead of which, were

Der of such which have lately come under my
care, and the immense suffering which little

his duty to advise the unfortunate, particularly
strangers, to be careful that they are not decel.
