IGNORANCE OF oUACK 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 in pills, drops &c.,
so the nostrum- maker, equally ignorant, adds TO
his so-caled extracts, specific, antidete, &c, both

Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are
known to some quack doctors and nos
trum-mekers, yet, regardless of the life
and health of others, there are those among them
who will even perjure themselves, contradicting
giving mercury to their patients, that it is con-
tanned in their nostrums, so that the ausual fee"
may be obtained for professedly curing, or ''the
dollar" or "fraction of it," may be obtained for
the nestrum. IT is thus that many are deceived
also, and uselessly spend large amounts for expers
iments with Quackery.
