DOCTOR SMITH

LAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
llton to the treatment of private complaints,
in all their varied and complicated forms. His
great success in those long standing and diff
| cult cases, such as were formerly considered in
durable, is sufficient to commend him to the pub
lie as worthy of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the last eight years,
Dir. 5. has treated more than 29,5OU cases of
Private Complaints in their different forms and

of all the physiciant now advertising in Balti
more, and not u single case is known, where di-
rections were strictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken ut reasonable time, without .fecting rad

hicted with diseases of the above nature, mo
matter how difficult or long standing the case
may be, would do well to call on DR.. SMITH ,
at his Office, No. IL, South Frederick Street.

Der OF such which have lately come under my
care, and the immense suffering which little
neglect or improper treatment in the hrst stages

his duty to advise the unfortunate, particularly
