v,ired and a maturity and mellowness imparted to the Wines

YPhilis, with that delicacy and seeresy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
t 4 eenhaement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme ',Ours they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if alight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily se preva-
ent, are reated upon these unerring principles whicli have in-
aural to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of nublic pa-
Arrinage for nearly thirty year sin London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.
