PRIVATE MEDICAL OFFICE,

is arranged that patients never see or hear each
other. Recoect, the only entrance to his office is
NO. II, having no connection with his residence
consequently family interruption, so that on no
account can any person hesitate applying at his
office,
DIR. DIX
boldly asserts (and it cannot be contradicted ex-
cept by quacks who will say or do anything, even
pcrjurc themselves, to impose upon patients that

engaged in treatment Of Special Diseases, a fact so
we are known to many Citizens, Publishers, Mer
chants, Hotel Proprietors &C., that he is much re-
commended, and particularly to
STRANGERS AND TRAVELLERS
To avoid and escape imposition of foreign and ma
tive quackS, more numerous in Boston than in other
large cities,
DIR. DIX
proudly refers to Professors and respectable Phys
cians-many of whom consult him in critical cases
because of his acknowledged skill and reputation
attained through so long experience, practice and
observation.
AFFLICTED AND UNFORTUNATE,
be not robbed and add to your sulIerings in being
deceived by the lying boasts misrepresentation,
false promises, and prctentionS of
FOREIGN AND NATIVE oUACKS,
who know but little of the nature and character Of
Special Diseases, and less to their cure, Some
hihit forged Diplomas of Institutions or Colleges
which never existed in any part OF the world 9TH
ers exhibit Diplomas of the Dead, how obtained
unknown; not only assuming and advertising in
OF those inserted in the diplomas but to fur
ther their imposition assume names Of the celebrat-
ed physicians long since dead. Neither be deceived by
QUACK NOSTRUM- MAKERS,
through false certificates and references and recon-
mendations of their medicines by the dead, who
cannot expose or contradict them; or who, besides
to further their impoSitous, copy from medical
books, much that is written of the qualities and eff
fects OF different herbs and plants, and ascrbe all
the same to their Pills, Extracts, Specifics, &c.
most of which, if not all, contain Mercury, because
OF the ancient belief of its curing everything"

those not killed, constituti0naly injured for life
IGNORANCE OF QUACK DOCTORS AND
NOSIRUM- IN AkERS.
Through the ignorance of the Quack Doctor
knowing no other remedy, he relies upon MERCURY
and gives it TO ali his patients, i'll Pills, Drops, &C..
the Nostrum- maker, equally ignorant, adds to
his socallcd Extracts, Speeches. Antidote, &c., both
relying upon its effects in curing few in hundred

but, alas nothing is said Of the balance, some of
whom die, others grow and are left 10 linger
and suffer for months or years, until relieved or
cured, if possible, by competent physicians.
BUT ALL QUACKS ARE NOT IGNORANT,
Notwithstanding The foregoing facts are known to
some quack doctors and nostrum makers yet, re-
garcss OF the life and he 9TH OF Others there are
those among them who eTen perjure themselves,
contradicting giving mercury to their patients or
that it is contained in their noStrums that the
" usual fee" may be obtained for professedy curing,
or" the dollar, " fraction of it !" may be obtain
ed for the nostrum. 1t is thus that many de-
ccyed, also, and spend large amounts for expert
