DIR. DIX
5ojdy asserts, (and it cannot be contraiicted ex.
cept by quacks, who will say do anything, even
peijure themselves, TO impose upon patients,) that
he is TIE ONLY REGULAR GRADUATE PHYSICIAN
ADVERTISING IN BOSTON.
TWENTY YEARS
engaged in treatment of Special Diseases fact so
We are known to many Citizens, Publishers Mer-
chants, Hotel Proprietors, &c, that he is much
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,
proudly refers to Professors and respectable Physi-
cians-many of whom consult him in critical cases,
because of his acknowledged skill and reputation
attained through SO long experience, practice and
observation.

deceived by the lying boasts, Misrepresentation,
false promises, and pretentions of
ftREJtiN AND NAilN II QUACkS,
who know but little Of the nature and character of
Special Diseases, and less TO their cure. Some ex-

IGNORANCE OF QUACK DOCTORS AND
NOSTRUM-MAkERS.
Through the ignorance of the Quack Doctor
knowing no other remedy, he relies upon MERCURY
and gives it TO all his patients, Pills, Drops, &C..
so the Nostrum- maker, equally ignorant, adds to
his socalied Extracts, Specifics Antidote, &c., both

but, alas nothing is said of the balance, some OF

cured If possible, by competent ply sicians.
But ALL QUACkS ARE NOT IGNORANT
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are known ia
quack doctors and nostrum- makers, yet, re-
gardcaS OF the life and health of Others there are
those among them who perjure themselves
contradicting giving mercury TO their patients OF
that it is contained in their nostrums, that the
