DOCTOR SMITH

! HAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
IItion to the treatment OF private complaints,
| in all their varied and complicated forms. Ills
| great success in those long standing and diff
cult eases, such us were formerly considered in
durable, is sufficient to cOmmendhm to the pub
lie as worthy of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the las, eight years,
DR.. S. has treated more than 2g,50O cases OF
Private Complaints in their different forms and
stages ; a practice which nt doubt exceeds that
Of all the physician. now advc 'tsing in Balti-
more, and not iugle case is known, where di-
rec,ions were strictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken at reasonable t9t, without ttfccting rad
icul and permanent cure; therefore, persons af-
fictcd with diseases Of the above nature, emo
matter how dilieult or long standing the case
may be, would do " ell to call on DR.. SMITH,
at his office. No. /, 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 after lion
to the treatment Of this class Of Diseases.
His medicines are free from Mercury and all
mineral poisons put up in neat and compact
form, and may be taken in public or private
mouse, or while travelling, without exposure or
bindrance from business, and except in eases Of
violent inflammation, no change OF diet neCcs-
sary.
Let the unfortunate bear in mind WREN allic-
ton uvcrtaacs them, that no time should he lost

as they would not only obtain relief from pain
avoid modification through exposure and elude
great constitutional injury, but enable their
medical assistant to be moderate in his charges
than lie tould justly bc, where symptoms have
become confirmed or the dse-sc more widely
diluscd. The rapid advance of this truly ter
rifying dsease, is sufficient to alarm the bOldest
heart. When liberation and disculOrcd PIochcs
with rGcking pains, betEay to the unhappy vic
tim the deadly poison prcying upon his vituls,
then, "and not ill thcu,'' do many awake to II
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, " ere
only checked driven irto the system by mercr,-
ry or cupaYia 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 mum.
bcr OF such which har I lately come under nv
care, and the immense suffering which little
eelcct or improper treatment in the first stages
Of the disersc may cause, DR.. Smith thinks ii
his duty to advise the unfortunate, portirulr,ly
strangers. 80 be careful that they are not drcei-
we'd by taise advertisements Of Louting 9u0ck,
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.

be aware of the importance of consultinga skill
