These sometimes commence in a most simple form, and through neglect or injudicious treatment afterwards assume a more aggravated state of disease, OCCaIIiCIIIiIIZ abscess ulceration, nodes, caries of the bones, psuedo syphilis, cancer, promature old age, and too often end In a protracted incurable state of miserable existence. Dr. COOKE though professing exclusively the Btu. dy and cure of these particular complaints, deems it proper to inform his friends and the public in general, in justice to his professional character, that he was properly educated and regularly iniatiated into every branch of the profession as a general Practitioner in Europe. • Dr. COOKE may be consulted therefore at all times, as usual at his offices, which are properly fit ted up and arranged for confidential consultation.
