Its introduction in 1829—are secured by Patent Right, which, in

OR the greatest ameliorations of civilized life, we
are indebted to the modern division of attention and labour
in the various pursuits of society, and in none have its benefits been so
manifest as in the healing art. Early convinced of this great truth,
MESSRS. GOSS and Co., Members of the Royal College of Surgeons in
London, have for twenty.five years confined their attention to the suc.
cessful treatment of a few prevalent complaints, viz., the general and
local deoilities of both the sexes, whether arising from the solitary in-
d;ilgenoo which a too highly inflamed imagination brings like a destroying
fiend ever the constitution, the mind, and the affections of youth ; or from
a long residence in hot climates, excessive drinking, or any other banetul
indulgence; and from their daily experience they can with confidence
of t restoration of the debilitated to vigorous health. Married females
of a pure and affectionate disposition, whose " fondest hope" has been
painfully deferred, may learn with consolation that perseverance in a
proper remedial course, will renovate general health, and remove hidden
igyied i m ents to maternal happiness.
An insid•ous disorder, however inveterate, as also Gonorrhcee, Gleet,
and Stricture, may be removed without material testraint in diet or
exercise.

M ESSIIS. GOSS and Co. are to be consultei every day at their resi-
dence; and Patients in the remotest parts of the country can be treated
successfully on transmitting their report, which will be immediately an-
swered; their letters must minutely describe the case, and contain a
remitta;ee for Advice and Medicine, which can be forwarded to any
part of the world, however distant. No difficulty can occur, as the Medi
':fines will' be securely packed, and carefully protected from observation.
