PRIVATE MEDICAL OFFICE,
Fl EndicOtt Street, Boston, Mass.
ia so arranged that patients never see or hear each
other. Recollect, the only entrance to his office is
No. FL, having no connection with his residence,
consequently no family interruption, so that on no
account can any person hesitate applying at his
office,
boldly asserts, (and it cannot be cokradcted, ex-
cept BY quacks, who will say or do anything, even
perure themselves, to impose upon patients, " that
he IS THE ONLY REGULAR GRADUATE PHYSICIAN
ADVERTISING IN BOSTON.
TWENTY YEARS
engaged in treatment of Special Diseases, fact SO
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,
proudly refers to Professors and respectable Phys
cians-many of whom consult him in critical cases,
because of his acknowledged sk'l and reputation,
attained through so long expert, ace, practice, and
observation.
AFFLICTED AND UNFORTUNATE,
be not robbed and add to your suferings in being
deceived by the lying boasts, Misrepresentation,
false promises, and pretentions OF
FOREIGN AND NATIVE QUACkS,
who know but little of the nature and character of
Special Diseases. and less to their cure Some eN
hibittorged Diplomas of Institutions or colleges,
which never existed in any part OF the World otl-
ers exhibit Diplomas of the Dead, how obtained
unknown; not only assuming and advertising In
ther their imposition assume names of the celebrat-
ed ply scians long since dead. Neither be deceiIedby
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 apd Ell
fects Of different herbs and plants, and ascribe 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,
but now known to 4 kill more than Is cured, ana
those not killed. consttutionaly injured for life.
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 in Pills, Drops &c.,
so tile Nostrum- maker, equally ignorant, ADDS TO
his socalled Extracts, Specifics, Antidote &C., both
relyinn upon its effects in curing few in hundred,
it is trumpeed in various ways throughout the land
but alas nothing is said of the balance, some OF
whom die, others grow worse and are LETT 10 linser
and suffer for months or years, until relieved or
cured il possible, by competent physicians.
But ALL QUACkS ARE NOT IGNORANT.
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are known TO
some uuack doctors and nostrum- makers, yet re-
CARELESS of the life and health of others, there are
those among them who perjure themselves,
contraiicting giving mercury to their patients, or
usual Zee" may be obtained for protessedy curing,
or the dollar or g fraction of it, may be obtain
ed for the nostrum. 1t is thus that many are de
ceived also, and spend large amour 'or eNperi-
ments with quackery.
