DOCTOR SMITH

uAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
l1tion to the treatment of private complaints,
in all their varied and complicated forms. His
great siccess in those long standing and diff
cult cases, such were formerly considered in
curable, is sufficient to commendhim to the pub
lie us worthy Of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the last eight years.
Dir. S. has treated more than 2g,j0O cases of
Private Complaints in their different forms and
stages practice which h. doubt exceeds that
of all the hyscans now advertising in Balu-
more, and not single case is known, where di-
rections were sttictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken at reasonable time, without ,fecting rad
cal and permanent cure; therefore, persons af-
hcted 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 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 free from Mercnry and all
mineral poisons put up in neat and compact
form, and may be taken in public or private
nouse 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 atilic-
ton overtakes them, that no time should be 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 he could justly be, where symptoms have
become confirmed or the disease more widely
difused. The rapid advance of this truly ter
rifying disease, is sufficient to alarm the boldest
heart. When liberation and discolored Plotches
with racking pains, betray to the unhappy vic
tim the deadly poison preying upon his vitals,
then, "and not till them" do many awake to a
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 mercn-
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, crruttions of the skin, pains or
swelling of bones, etc. On account Of the num-
Der of such which hav lately come under my
care, and the immense suffering which a little
neglect or improper treatment in the first stages
of tho dscrse may cause, Dir. Smith thinks it
strangers, to be careful that they are not decei-
we'd by false ddgertisenten' Of bOasfimg 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 n state which makes the ease ex-
tremely difficult to cure. Therefore he should
be aware of the Importance of consulting skill
full physician in the carly stage of the disease.
