MEDICAL NOTICE.
Dr. James Snyder, of Ohio,

Dr. Snyder'a method of arriving at disease, as
well as his mode of treatment, differs from all oth
ers of the various Schools and systems now prac
ticed. The success of which, in treating old com
plaints for the last twenty years, has gained him
a popularity unequalled by any other practitioner
in this couni
try.
Aside from Ohio, where his practice has been
die most extensive, he has treated hundreds of the
most hapless cases in the following cities, towns,
and surrounding country, viz: Rochester, Au
burn, Syracuse, Cazinovia, Binghamton, Owego,
Courtlandville. Ithica, Elmira, Bath, Penn, Yen,
and many others in the State of New York; De
troit, Michigan; Erie, New Castle, Butler, Free
port, Kittanning. Great Western, Blairsville, and
others, in Western Pennsylvania.
As Dr. Snyder rests his claim to public confi
dence entirely on the merits of his practice, all lie
asks is a trial to convince the most sceptical, that
cures can be effected in many cases where relief
has been sought in vain, in the common walks of
medicine. All those whose cases aro beyond the
reach of his remedies will be so informed on their
first application, without their ineuring any ex
pense._ . . . .

As Dr. S. gives his whole attention to treating
chronic disease, he is familiar with all the diseas
es of this country, assuming that form. For fur
ther particulars call at his rooms as above. No
CHARGE FOR CONSULTATION.
Dr. S. will repeat his visits regularly, once in
four or five weeks, of which due notice will be
