which Induce me to Gravel" are duo to the pub
lie as well as to myself Before making engage
ments to visit dTerents points, in Vermont and
vicinity, was almost daily in receipt of letters
from parties in the country who, though anxious
to consult me, avowed their utter inability to come
to Burlington for that purpose; and being anx ious
to meet the wishes of those applicants, but con-
WINGED of the uselessness and danger Of prescrib-
ing without previous personal examination,
finally determined on making regular visits to as
many towns in Vermont aud vicinity as my time
would admit of, and thus. afford such persons an
opportunity of consulting me.
From the commencement Of my professional ca
reer, my time and attention has been exclusively
devoted TO the study aud investigation of diseases

SIGHT, by medical and surgical means and the
treatment of all diseases leading to GENERAL
DEBILITY or to the establishment Of consump-
ton.
In every case coming for examination, 4 can
did opinion will be given as To the probability of

which does not offer reasonable chance of sue
