DOCTOR SMITH

LAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
4xtion 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 as were formerly considered in
| curable is sufficient to commend him to the pub
lie as worthy Of the extensive patronage which
| he has received. Within the last eight years,
DR.. s. has treated moro than 29, 500 cases of
| Private Complaints in their different forms and
| stages a practice which NO doubt exceeds that
| OF all the physicians now advertising in Bdlti-
more, and not single case is known, where di-
rections were strictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken a reasonable time, without ,fTcctiug Il rad
| ical and permanent cure; therefore, per. af-
ficted with diseases of the above nature, 'sno
matter how difficult or long standing the case
| may be, would do we'll 70 call on DR.. SMITH,
at bis 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 free from Mercury and all
mineral poisons put up in neat and compact
form, and may be taken in public or private
house, or while travelling, without exposure or
bindrance from busine, and except in cases of
violent Inflammation, NJ change of dietis ncces-
sary.
Let the unfortunate bear in mind whom aflc-
| ton overt,aes them, that 10 time should be lost
| in making application to q ompetent phy.ician,
as they would not only obtain relief from pain.

great constitutional injury, but enable their
medical assistant to be moderate in his charges
than lie ;ould justly be, where symptoms have
become confirmed or the discase more widely
difused. The rapid advance of this truly ter
rfying disease, is sufficient to alarm the boldcst
heart. When liberation and discOored Plotches
with racking pains, betray to the unhappy vic

| 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

CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY.
Young men beware OF the pelnicous indul
gence an lmost fatal injury you inflict upon
your constitutions, by evil examples and the
Liorbid influence of the passions.
How many young persons do we daily behold, |
whose and debiitat ted con stitutions
depict disease arising from that horrible and de-
vastatng vice.
1t could be shown how attenuation Of the
frame, palpitation of the heart, arrangement ut Of
the nervous system, cough, indigestion and
train of symptoms, indicative OF consumption, |
arc often ascribed to wrong causes, when in re- |
ality, they are the con sequences of an alluring
and pernicious practice alike destructive to the
mind and body.
You who have brought this afliction upon |
yourselves, why embrace the secret 10 your |
hearts and vainly attempt 10 cure youl selves,
instead of making immediate application to a
skillfull physician, who in 4 short time, would |
restore you to perfect health and ave you from
exposure which tho fatal consequences render it |
envitable.
