THE PRIVATE MEDICAL PRO-
Il FESSIoN.
CFrOm the Boston Daily News

1t is quite desirable that should define position
before the public in reference what generally known
as the private medical profession The strides which our
reporter has taken toward disclosing criminal side
the private" practice ought receive the unqualified
approval Of all good citizens if bring the cuprts
the bar of justice it undoubtedly will in some cases.
But 1t must not be supposed that these articles are
attack upon the private practice as a whole, but
rather upon those who by ignorance and crime persist
IN disgraeing it, The who seeks to treat and cure
any private disorder is not necessarily criminal and
he is too often regarded by the puanical as such All
diseases must be cured the unfortunate poeor of
the malady would suffer in consequence and perhaps
extend its cOntagion the veins pure and healthy
bodies. Our duty then in relation to this matter
two-fod; first to single out expose and denBunce all
who seek TO drag the profession into crime and dsrepute
and secondly to tell the unfortunate who WILL we regret
TO say exist long sin the earh where their
troubles may receive honest and competent treatment
1t is held in the belief of many that regular family
tors cannot consistently treat every contagious disease
Heads of families naturally feel adverse to having their
family physician do So and consequence the medical
profession has become divided However wrong or in
consistent this may be with scientific opinion the
exists, and public sentiment may we suppose be held
responsible.
Holding then, that it duty to find if possible
some reliable medical office where the unfortunate can
receive honest treatment by competent medical
who sails under fictitious name, and who response
bic for his acts our reporter made examination of
some twenty of the principal offices yesterday morning.
but found with single exception place that seemed
to guarantee any reliability medical skill There was
in almost every instance fraud swnde connected
with the office. Either the doctor was only hotel
porter with deceased physicians name OF a dry
goods clerk with similar fictitious title II for
some time that there reliable medical insti-
tute'' in the city.
At last our reporter entered the Morrill, Medical Insti-
tute where he found the DOCTOR Frederick Morrill, viii
ling, indeed DESTROYS have his mode of treatment
thoroughly investigated This seemed vastly different
tested against any attempt investigations and in many
instances ordered HIM to leave the office Not So how
ever, with DR.. Morrill,. He cOured the most thorough
scrutiny. This reporter proceeded to make in COM
pany with dsnterested Citizen and after king every
possible inquiry and observation lie states that theres
one place where all elasses of complaints and diseases
are treated by an upright and honest physician; that
place is the morrill, Medical Institute" where DR.. f.
Morrill,, an old and competent Decor graduate OF the
Medical University at Philadelphia, is constantly in at
tendance. 1t is singular fact that our reporter has
heard no tangible stories against the doctor although
every quack in the city is bitterly opposed him. prob
ably account of his unprecedented success in all his
medical undertakings.
Dr. Morrill, does not treat by the job as "quack'
would charge to cure certain disease he will answer
THAT depends upon the stage and nature of the COM
plant He has no tabular list of prices with ten or
twenty dollars set opposite certain private diseases
much after the style OF hotel bill of fare but treats all
complaints on the same principle of regular family
physician. which he justly claims to be. We are conf
dent that Dr. Morrill, runs honest business where any
man may trust his without far of imposition or
where any lady will receive competent treatment for all
her complaints for a reasonable compensation. No
shadow OF illegtmate unlawful treatment ever cloud
ed the Doctors reputation, and persons desiring such
need not apply to him. DIR. Morrill, has had long and
successful experience in his peculiar line of treatment
which includes nearly all complaints to which flesh is
heir His remedies very consistent and his cures are
his best recommendation His ofceis at No As Howard
