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 the Nostrum-maker, equally ignorant, adds to
his so-called Extracts, Specifics Antidote &c. both

BUT ALL QUACKS ARE NOT IGNORANT,
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are known to
some quack doctors and nostrum makers yet re-
gardless of the life and health Of others, there are
those among them who even perjure themselves,
contradictng giving mercury to their patients,
that it is contained in their nosrums, that the
usual ee may be obtained for professedly curing,
or the dollar, or g fraction of it, may be obtain
ed for the nostrum. 1t is thus that many are de-
ceiyed, also, and spend large amounts for expert
ments with quackery.
