AFFLICTED AND UNFORTUNATE,
be not robbed, and add 20 your suferings IN being
deceived by the lying boasts, misrepresentation,
false promises and pTetensions Of
FOREIGN AND NATIVE oUACKs,
who know little of the nature and character Il
special Diseases, and less TO their cure. Some
@xhlbit forged diplomas OF institutions or college
which never existed IN any part of the world;
others exhibit diplomas of the dead how obtsinsi
unknown; not only assn ming and ADVERTISING
In names NJ those inserted 10 the diplomas but "a

celebrated physicians long since dead, Neither be

medical books much that Is written OF the qusJi-
ties and effects Of different herbs and plants ard

IGNORANCE OF oUACK DOCTORS AND
NOSTRUM-MAKERS.
Through the ignorance Of the oueek Doctor
knowing no other remedy ,he relies upon Mercury
and gives it TO sill his patients in pile drops &C.
so the nostrum-msker, equally ignorant, adds %
his so-called extracts specific, sntidete &C. both

the land: but, alas nothing is said Of the bal
anee, some Of whom die, others grow vorss and
are left linger suffer Cor months or yesTsur-
al relieved or cured, il possible, By competent
physicians.
But ALL QUACKs ARE NOT IGNORANT.
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are
known to some QuseB doctors and nos
Srum-rnakers, yet, regardless Of the life
and health OF others, tneTe are tnOSe among th-U
who will even periure themselves, contrsdictinz
giving mercury TO their patients that IL is con-
