to the community, from having confined himself en

Dr COOKE continues .to direct his solo attention
to the treatment of every disorder that occurs from
imprudence, whilit under the influence of intemper
ance or any other baneful excitement, and to theture
of those dreadful maladies, which too often arise there
from. These sometimes commence in a most simple
form, and through neglect or injudicious treatment
afterwards assume a more aggravated state of disease,
occasioning abscess ulceration, nodes, caries of the
bones, psnedo syphilis, cdticer,promature old age,
and too often end In a protracted incurable state of
miserable existence
Dr. COOKE though professing exclusively the stu
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
