WHEN
Protessiohai Men, eminent for skill
and experience, offer their advice, and exert their
abilities, for the cure of a few reigning Diseases, they rise su-
perior to that prejudice which is so Justly excited against the
advertisements of men, ignorant of the first principles, and
uneducated in the practice of physic. Messrs. CURRIE and
Co. regular Surgeons, sanctioned by every privilege to prac-
tice, and by the uniform success which their mode of treat-
ment for Venereal Complaints has hitherto been attended,
continue with the same assiduity to direct their studies to the
cure of every species of that baneful poison, as well as the re-
moval of those distressing debilities and deticieni,Ues which
prevent or embitter the inatrinumal state. In the catalogue
of human irifirmitiei there are none more kililiefing than those
which are the unavoidable consequences of an indulgence in
a certain destructive habit. The unhappy sofferer broods
over his misfortunes, ashamed.to seek relief, until he is re-
duced to such a state of misery as to render life oppressive.
To such persons it wilt be a consoling reelection to know that
they may now, by a new and infallible remedy, be restored
to their former constitutional strength and vigour, Weak,
relaxed, and debilitated habits, proceeding either from an
excess of conjugal and illicit pleasure, or fronia long resi-
dence in hot climates, hard drinking, the injudicious use of
mercury, &c. are speedily restored to health and strength.
It must be a self-evident proposition, that where the ag,
gregate of -intellectual capacity is directed to the.treatment
and cure of a few peculiar complaints, there must be the.
greater certainty of success; and as. a proof of this positim
their method of cure is so particularly expeditious, as well
- as safe, and so evidently superior to the coninion practice,
that in some slight cases of infection a perfect restoration is
completed in the short period of three days, and in those of
the utmost inveteracy, where.other practitioners have failed,
a.proper perseverance in their plan of treatment ensures to
the patient a safe, well-grounded, and lasting re-establish-
ment. By an early application, the patient will escape the
danger and expence of a tedious attendance upon the less ex-
perienced practitioner.. In the most obstinate and compli-
cated cases of venereal infection, such as obstructions in the
urethra, spongy excrescences, hard tumours; callous ulcers,
eruptions, seminal weakness, gleets, as also STRICTURES,
whether recent or of long duration, and which have baffled
the skill of other practitioners, are, by their present improved
plan of treatment, effectually and permanently cured, with.
out the patient suffering the excruciating pain and alarming
heruorr huge which freque.ntly fo4lows the application of the
lunar caustic. In the course of 9.0 years extensive iiractice in
this metropolis, numerous cases of strictures have hem and
arc daily under their care, the total eradication of which is
.effected by a safe, certain, and elpecLitionsmode of practice,
superior to any other yet adopted. The weakness, relaxa-
tion, and debility proceeding from this complaint, is speedily
removed, and the patient rostozed to sound and vigorous
health. But where the debility has for years existed, a pro-
per perseverance in their restorative remedies, after the
stricture has been destroyed, is indispensably requisite to
revive the slumbering sparks of life, and to re-animate the
constitution.

Several Noblemen and Gentlemen of the first respectabi-
lity have been under the care of Messrs: Currie and Co. for
the removal of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c.;
and having received a radical and permanent cure, request
that rferences may be m&de to them, as satisfactory evidences
of the decisive superiority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s plan
of treatment. Many of these Geatlemen have had Strictures
from 10 to .10 years, and had been under the care of Messrs.
Home, Heavisidcs, and other Surgeons of equal eminence,
who attempted the cure by the application of the lunar
caustic, without success.

Messri. Currie and Co. play be consulted by either Sex,
with the greatest delicacy, secrecy, and honour, at their
house, No. 107, Hattott-garden.

Patients in the Country are requested to state the particu-
lars of their case, age, and general habit of living, &c. &c.
inclosing a remittance for advice and medicines, when the
same will be given orseut to any part of the kingdom. To
ensure that secrecy so essential to their undertaking, the
postage of letters may be added to the account for medicines.
