IGNORANCE OF QUACK DOCTORS AND
NOSTRUM-MAkERS.
Through the ignorance OF the Quack
Doctor, knowing no other remedy, he re-
lies upon Mercury and gives it to all his
patients in pills, drops, &c, 50 the nOStrum-
maker, equally ignorant, adds to his So
called extracts, specific, antidote, &C, both

hundred, it is trumpeted in various WAYS
throughout the land but, alas nothing is
said of the balance, some of whom die
others grow worse, and are left to linger OF
suffer for months or years, until relieved or
cured, if possible, by competent physicians.
But ALI QUACKs ARE NOT IGNORANT''
Notwithstanding the foregoing facts are
known to some quack doctors and nostrum-
makers, yet, regardless of the life and
health of others, there are those among
them who will even peTjure themselves,
cOntradicting giving mercury to their patti
ents, or that il is contained in their nos
trumS, SO that the usual fee" may be oh
tanned for professedly curing, or ':the dol
lar or Traction OF it, may be obtained
for the nostrum, 1t is thus that many are
deceived, also, and uselessly spend large
amounts for experiments with quackery.
