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

| 1t is known to be true by persons of extended
observation, that the medical world, as 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 if those
changes had no tendency upward or onward, keep

The DIR. is fully aware that the medical world is
far behind many of the arts and sciences, yet at the
same time there are many minds OF great goodness
of heart who have spent nights and days OF untr-
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-
what is his particular mode of practice? The Doc
tor would say that he has not adopted a speciality
in the treatment of disease, or the choice of RENE
dies; he has however TURNED bs attention more
particularly to the treatment of LUNG AND FE-
! MALE DISEASES; and the present condition OF
our race physically would seem to urge every med
cal gentleman to turn his attention in this drec-
tion from the fact that small contracted weak lungs

also among the female there is universal ten

and debility; therefore to restore the small, Hat
weak lungs, to a full, round erect size and shape,
making the short breath long, the weak voice
strong and entirely removing the internal weak
ness debility, all gone feeling at the stomach pain
in the back. soreness across the small of the back
and bowels, together with cold feet, dizziness,
blindness on STOPPING together with many other
symptoms which prevail among the female sex,
which often arise from scorfulous diathesis.
1t is the Drs. purpose to treat chronic diseases
generally, and hope to give satisfaction.
With regard to treatment the DIR. STYLES his prac

many remedies in his travels which he finds OF
great utility in the of disease which not in

among the native Indians, as well as those growing
among the continual summer of Mexico Especial
ly would call the attention to that class Of rem

he used in case in st. Joseph Co., Ind, where fol-
two years the person was confined to the room and

In explaining his method of treatment by letter
or otherwise, to any person who desires to consult

by referring to parties in this vicinity and in other
parts of the country, who have carfully watched
his treatment of disease for months, and i'm some
cases for a much longer time; also he would refer
to any person privately to numbers of individual
cases carefully treated and cured of various forms
of disease, since the introduction of his practice
in the West. The DIR. especially invites persons
. suffering with weakness general debility, or actua
disease, to give him a call, and perhaps by con
sultatiOn "a thorough examination of the person

DIR. will make no charges for consultation or ex

charges for medical service, some would inquire
what the habit of DIR. d., is in this respect The
DR.. would say that account of the tnancia
condition of the country, he has reduced his fees
for medical service.
His charges for prescriptions and medicines il
ordinary cases, is three dollars per month"; and a:
he expects to make monthly visits to the above
places, 1t affords excellent opportunity for those
