O ar rs nged that patients never hear or see

deceived by the lying boasts, misrepresentation,
false promises and pretensions of
FOREIGN AND NATIVE oUACKs,
wko know little of the nature and character of
Special Diseases, and less as to their cure. Some
exhibit forced diplomas Of institutions colleges
which never existed IN any part of the world :;
others exhibit diplomas of the dead, how obtained
unknown; cot only ming and advertising

further their imposition assume names Of other
celebrated physicians long since dead. Neither be

ascribe all the to their pills, extracts, specf

because of the ancient belief of its "euring every
thing" but no known TO SKILL more than is
cured" and those not killed, constitutionally in

IGNORANCE OF QUACK DOCTORS AND
EOSTRUM-MAKERS.
Through the ignorance of the Quack Doctor,
knowing no other remedy he relies upon Mercury
and gives 1t to all his patients IN pills, drops &c.
so the nostrum- maker, equally ignorant, adds TO
his so-called extracts specific, sntjdete, &C., both
relying upon it's effects IN curing few in 8 hund

the land but, alas nothing is said Of the ball
ance, some of whom die, others grow worse, and
are left to nger suffer for months years, I'M
til relieved or cured, If possible, by competent
physicians.
Sur ALL QUACKs ARE NOT IGNORANT
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are
known TO some quack doctors and nos
trurn-makers, yet, regardless OF the life
and health OF others, there are those among thsm
who will even perjure themselves, centrsdicting |
giving mercury TO their PATIENTS that it is con-
tained in their nostrums, that the ftusual fee"
may be obtained for professedly curing, or "ths |
dollar" or "frsction of it," may be obtained for
the nostrum. IL is thus that many are deceived |
Also and uselessly spend large amounts for exper.
lments with quackery.
