N.B.—There are of course an immense number of other quacks—hand-bill distributors, whose bills are also to be seen posted in the public urinals—who, in a small way, carry on an equally nefarious trade. A few words of general caution, I imagine, are all that is necessary in reference to them—Never consult any 'person issuing these hind of hills.
