DOCTOR SMITH

ITAS for many wears devoted his whole atten-
q ution 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 us were formerly considered in
durable, is sufficient to commend him to the pub
lie worthy of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the last eight years.
DIR. 5. has treated more than 29, 800 cases of
Private Complaints in their different forms and
stages /; a practice which IL, doubt exceeds that
of all the physicians now advertising in Bati-
more, and not u single case is known, where d.
rections were strictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken at reasonable time, without ,ffecting rad
ical and permanent cure; therefore, persons af-
hicted with diseases of the above nature, "no
matter how difficult or long standing the case
may be, would do we'll to call on DR.. SMITH,
at his otice, 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 free from Mercury and all
mineral poisons put up in neat and compact
form, and may be taken in public private
mouse, or while travelling, without exposure or
bindrance from business, and except in cases of
violent Inflammation, no change of diet is eces-
sary.
Lot the unfortunate bear in mind when aflic-
tiou rtahes them, that no time should be lost
in making application to competent phy ician,
AS they would not only obtain relief from pain.
avoid mortiicuticn through exposure and elude
great constitutional injury, but enable their
medical assistant to he moderate in his charges
than he could justly be, where symptoms have
become confirmed the disease more widely
diflused. The rapid advance of this truly ter
rifying disease, is sufficient to alarm the boldest
heart. When liberation and discolored Plotches
with racking pains, bctrny to the unhappy vic
tim the deadly poison preying upon his vitals,
then, land not till them do many awake to n
full sense of their danger. ..- ...,
We are called upon every few days to cure
Chronic Diseases. which were supposed to have
been cured years ago, but instead of which, were
only checked, driven into the system by mercii
ry or copavia and therefore seems to be well but
in longer or shorter 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, erruptions of the skin, pains or
swelling Of bones, etc. On account Of the num-
Der of such which have lately come under my
care, and the immense suffering which little
neglect or improper treatment in the first stages
Of tho diserse may cause, DR.. Smith thinks it
his duty to advise the unfortunate, particularly
STRANGERS, TO be careful that they arc not decei-
we'd by faise adUertisements Of boating quacks
who make promises which could not be fulfilled
even by the most experienced physicians. BY
neglect or improper treatment, the patient is Of
ten reducad to a state which makes the case ex-
tremely difficult to cure. Therefore he should
be aware of the Importance of eonsultnga skill-
nv in hp ri etnpe of the discaso.
