of those places, that he is fully that there
are many medical gentlemen visiting different
parts Of the country, who (judging from their sue

claim to professional knowledge yet, NEVERTHELESS
claiming for himself, first, thorough medical
education, second, considerable practical kpowI-

1t is known to be true by persons OF extended
observation, that the medical world, well as
every other department Of knowledge, is and has
been in years past. subjected to MANY and varied
changes and il would seem strange indeed il those
changes had no tendency upward or onward, keep
ing pace with other arts and sciences
The DIR. is fully aware that the medical world 10
far behind many Of the arts and Sciences yet af the
same time there are many minds of great goodness
of heart who have spent nights and days Of untir-
ing toll in order to add to the grand stock of med
ical knowledge. With these facts before us, every
medical gentleman should try to keep pace with all
improvements in the medical world.
Some minds will be led to enquire what particu-
lar diseases does the DIR. pay attention to, and
what is his particular mode of practice! The Doc
tor would say that he has not adopted speciality
in the treatment of disease, or the choice Of RENE
dies he has however TURNED bIs attention more
particularly to the treatment OF LUNG AND FE--
MALE DISEASES; and the present condition Of
our physically, would seem to urge every med
ica gentleman to turn bis attention In this direc-
ton, from the fact that small contracted weak lungs
are among the commonaties of the present time
also among the female there is u universal ten

in the back. soreness across the small OF the back
and bowels, together with cold feet, dizziness,
blindness ON stopping, together with msny other
symptoms which prevail among the female sex.
which often arise from scorfulous diathess.
Ii is the Drs purpose to treat chronic diseases
generally, aud hope to give satisfaction.
With regard to treatment the DIR. STYLES his prac-
tce ANALYTIC CHEMISTRY, as lac discards the
mineral poison and anal, all vegetable sub
stances which he uses. The DIR. has discovered
many remedies in his travels which he finds Of
great utility in the of disease which are not in
general use especially those discovered while
among the native Indians. well AS those growing
among the continual summer of Mexico. Especial
y would we call the attention to that class of
edies which by recent chemical developments he
uses Tor general weakness and debility, in which
he used in case in 81. Joseph Co., Ind, where for
two years the person was confined to the room and
couch; but application of his treatment, a per-
manent cure followed. And also in various cases
of debility, his patients constantly gain strength
while his medicines aid the recuer tive process Of
nature. The I'r. believes his treatment Of disc ase
be fully up with the times and will take pleasure
in explaining his method Of treatment by letter
otherwise, to any person who desires to consult
him. The DIR. will also be pleased to undertake to
satisfy any skeptical mind with regard his medi-
cal knowledge or success in treating the most din
cult forms of disease. (of the Head. Ears. Throat.
Heart, Lungs, Liver. Spine. Kidneys &C., &c }
BY referring To parties in this vicinity and other
parts Of the country, who have earthly watched
his treatment of disease for months and in some
cases for II much longer time; also he would refer
to any person privately to numbers of individual
cases carefully treated aud cured Of forms
of disease, since the introduction of his practice,
in the West. The DIR. especially invites persons
suffering with weakness general debility, actual
disease to give him call. and perhaps by CON-
sultatiUn thorough examination of the person.
may receive satisfaction is his or her case. The
DIR. will make no charges for consultation ex-
animation. On account of the great variety al
charges for medical service. some would inquire
what the habit of DIR. d., is in this respect. The
condition If the country, he has reduced his fees
for medical service.
His charges for prescriptions and medicines in
Ordinary cases, is three dollars per month. and
he expects to make monthly visits to the above
places, it affords excellent opportunity for those
who desire his counsel or advice. As there may
be some in this vicinity who desire ia counsel
with the DIR. aud are not able to visit HIM, he has
subjoined list Of questions which be answered
by the patient, and sent by friend TO the DIR.
forwarded To him at Chicago and by previous
notice and arrangement he may be able to pay
them visit. The following list of questions 10
not designed tn meet every case. but tn give the
patient an idea by which he may be guided in tho
description of the case. All other information
possible should also be given. in order that the DIR.
may be able to judge correctly.
