HOW TO AVOID SWINDLERS

WHO SOMETIMES INFEST THE CARS AND DEPOTS IN AND NEAR THIS CITY.

WE WARN ALL THOSE WHO CONTEMPLATE VISITING US, that we have the most _positive proofs_ that a gang of confidence men have at different times made it their business to watch for sick and infirm people on the way to our inst.i.tutions, and divert them into the hands of "sharpers,"

confidence men and swindlers. These men have watched for the coming of invalids on the cars, in and around the depots, in the offices of the hotels located near the depots, and if inquiry was made for our inst.i.tutions, or if the object of the visit to the city was made known or suspected from the invalid appearance of the traveler, they at once commenced weaving their skillfully-wrought web to catch a victim.

WE, THEREFORE,

ADVISE ALL THOSE DESIRING TO VISIT US,
