IMPORTANT TO FEMALES.


When a female is in trouble afflicted with dis
ease, and requires medical or surgical assistance,
the inquiry should be, Where is there a physician
who is fully competent to administer relief-one
whose knowledge of the female system is perfect,
who thoroughly understands the application of
medicine to disease, whose scientific attainments
in surgery have made him pre-emnent in his pro-
fcssion and whose respectable standing in society
recommends him to the confidence of the commu-
nifty? Unless these and many more questions, can
be satisfactorily answered, the afflicted should
pause before consulting any one.
DIR. J. G. YOUNG, understanding how imper
atvely necessary these requirements are, feels
called upon to interposc, and by calling the atten-
ton of the afflicted to the fact that he has been
PROFESSOR OF OBSTETRICS AND FEMALE
DISEASES for twenty years, and is fully qualified
to administer in all cases, both medically and sur
gically, not in superficial manner but in as thor
ough . manner as years of study and practice
