Caution to the Unfortunate.

+ Beware Of the San Francisco quacks and pre-
tenders who, with bogus sworn-to certificates dupe
the unwary. Some of the sef-styed doctors
whose names to he found in the daily and
weekly newspapers of San Francisco and other
places, are tradesluen and became too lazy to work
at their trades Sone tinsmiths, shoemakers
newspaper carriers, intelligence office keepers &C.
Look over the San Francisco directory and you
will not find their Medical Institutions in it, Look
at the Directory for 1862 and 1868. The only way
to avoid imposition is to make inquiry-it will cost
you nothing, and may save you many regrets for,
advertising physieiaDs in eight cases out of ten
are bogus, there is 20 safety in trusting any of
them until you knoH who and what they are. Dr.
Gibbon does not deceive people by exhibiting bogus
titles, certificates, pretended patients letters &c.
DR.. Gibbon will satisfy persons who may call at
his office of his ability to treat diseases that be

instance obtained more than temporary relief.

this world, but reading Dr. Dohertys advertisement

nothing for consultation. had an interview with
the Doctor at his office, in Sacramento street, and

benefit from his treatment. On the 5th day of
December last, | placed myself under his care in
