IGNORANCE OF QUACK DOCTORS AND
NOSTRUM- MAKERS.
Through the ignorance of the Quack Doctor,
knowing no other remedy, he rei upon MERCURY
and gives ii to all his patients, in Pills, Drops, &c.
so the Nostrum maker, equally ignorant, adds to
his socalled Extracts, Specifies Antdote, &C., both

but, alas nothing is said of the balance, some OF
whom die, others grow worse and are left TO lnger
and suffer for months or years, until relieved OF
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
gardiess OF the life and health of others there are
those among them who perjure themselves
contradictng giving mercury to their patients OF
that it is contained in their nostrums, that the
usual fee may be obtained for professedly curing
or the dollar" r fraction OF it, may be obtain
ed for the nostrum. 1t is thus that many are de
ccived, Also and spend large amounts for expert
mcnts with quackery.
