MEDICAL HOUSE.
DOCTOR SMITH

IIAS for many years devoted his whole atten-
I1tion 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
durable, is sufficient to commend him to the pub
lie worthy of the extensive patronage which
he has received. Within the last eight years,
DR.. S. has treated more than $500 cases of
Private Complaints in their different forms and
stages practice which Mt doubt exceeds that
of all the physicanE now advertising in Balti-
more, and not single case is known, where di-
rections were strictly followed, and medicine ta-
ken at reasonable time, without effecting rad
ical and permanent cure; therefore, persons af-
Hicted with diseases of the above nature, emo
matter how difficult or long standing the case
may be- would do well 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 Mercury and oil
mineral poisons put up in nea. and compact
form, and may be taken in public or private
house, or while travelling, without exposure or
bindrance from business, and except in cases Of
violent Inflammation, no change of diets neces-
sary.
Let the un fortunate bear in mind when afhic-
tisn overtaAes them, that no time should be lost
in making application to IL competent physician,
as they would not only obtain relief from pain.
avoid mortitcaton 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 the disease more widely
dihused The rapid advance of this truly ter
rifyinE disease, il 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 vitais,
then, "and not till them do many awake to
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
yn!y checked, driven into the system by mercu
ry or copavia and therefore seems to be we'll 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, crruptons of the skin, pains or
swelling Of bones, etc. On account Of the num-
Der of such which have lately come under my
care and the immense suffering which little
ne ele ect or improper treatment i'll the first stages
of the diserse may cause, DR.. Smith thinks it
his duty to advise the unfortunate, particularly
STRANGERS. to be careful that they are not decei-
we'd by false adoertisememfs IF 6odstfng qndcks
who make promises which could not be fulfilled
even by the most experienced physicians. By
neglect or improper treatment. the patient is Of
ten relucad to Il state which makes the case ex-
tremelr difficult to cure. Therefore he should
be aware of the Importance of consulting SKILL
fnl physician in the early stage of the disease.
