MEDICAL ADVICE-Dr. VIM. X. Doherty's
Medical and Surgical Institute is becoming sine
qua non to the welfare of our State and health
of our citizens; and his rapidly spreading reputa-
ton, although it may excite surprise, is but the
signal OF SKILL and follows as the natural effect
of such cause. We are personally acquainted
with gertcmen who had suffered for years under
chronic disease, and who had taken advantage of
every available means that promised relief, but
without success, until they called upon Dr. Do
herty, who in an incredibly short space of time,
has given them entire relief. 1t is gratifying to
announce this fact, because the Doctor is gen
teman who seeks, not by defamation of others,
to establish his reputation, or to rear the super
structure of his own upon the ruin of another's
fame. The Doctor conducts his Institute in snch
a manner that must be gratifying to all his pa
tients He examines, advises and recommends
without charge, and the patient after hearing
his terms for treatment can accept or reject at
pleasure In no case does the Doctor make
charge unless he effects cure. This, he is able
to do because he feels the confidence which long
experience has given, and no doubt the cOnsola'
ton which appertains to that confidence. Per.
sons afflicted with either acute or chronic disease
would do we'll to consult the Doctors at all events
it can do no harm, as for consultation he asks no
fee: nor does he insist on obedience TO his advice
unless the patient places himself under his care.
His offices are on Sacramento street, opposite the
Pacific Mail Steamship Offices. F. News.

For restoring hair upon bald heads (from what

growth Of hair upon the face, it has no equal. 1t
will force the beard to grow upon the smoohcst
face in from five to eight weeks. or hair upon
bald heads in from two to three months. few
ignorant practitioners have asserted that there is
nothing that will force or hasten the growth OF
the hair or beard. Their assertions are false as
thousands Of living witnesses Urom their own ex-
perience) can bear witness But many will saw,
how are we to distinguish the genuine from the
spurious? 1t certainly is difficult, as ninc-tcn,hs
OF the different Preparations advertised for the

may have already thrown away large amounts in
their purchase. To such we would say, try the

it FULLY comes up to our representations. If
