A CHALLENGE.

IV4ESSIIS.. CURRIE and Co._ Surgeons,late in
.0,1. his Majesty's service, challenge the whole world to
plow a single instance where their medicine and method of
cure have failed of the desired.cifea. The pradice of many
years in this partiimlar branch of their profession, has not
given rise to one unsuccessful case.
They continue to dired their studies to the treatment and
ure of venereal comp Faints,. and that-derangement of the sys-
tem, which is-the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful
elkds of a habit-long and most unhappily pursued by. the
youth of both sexes. In. the one it will be found to be the
unfailing source of barrenness; the other have its ravages .fa.
tally developed to • them by a distressing state Of debility,
which if not timely remedied, terminates in irnporentcy,
these are its remote and ultimate ettects, while consumed
Lion, loss of muscular power, and various nervous complaints,
Usually charaderise the earlier stages tais•solirary vice.
Of persons languishing under the disorders, incidcnt.to such a
habit, their treatment is simple, and'has never provCcir uns-uc-
cessful iry the course of a long, laborious,.and much ex terrded
practice. In the mast obstinate.and colkplicated cases of ve-
nereal infection, such as obstrudions iu the-urethra, spongy
exccescetices,- hard tumors, -callous ulcers, eruptions, semi-
weakness, gteetas also
• STRICTUR ES,

Whether recent or of long duration, and which have baf-
fled the skilt of other Practitioners, are.i.by their pre'sent im-
proved piano(' treatment, _effectually and permanently cured,
without •the •Patient 6dliieting the excruciating pan and
alarming hemorrhage which frequently follows the applica-
tion of the lunar .caustic. I n the 'course of twenty years
extensive praCtice in this Metropolis, nit_merous cases of
Strictures have been and arc daily under their ea tee the total
eiadieation of which is effeCted by a safe, certaini4 and expe-
ditious mode of pr4lice, superior to; any other yet adopted.
The weakness, relaxation, and debility proceeding from this
complaint are speedily removed, and the Patient restored to
sound and vigorous health. But where the debility has for
years existed, a proper perseverance in their restorative re
medics, after the Stricture has been destroye' I is indispensa-
bly requisite to revive the slumbering sparks of; life and to
reanimate the constitution.

Several' Noblemen and Gentlemen of the first respeBa,
bility, have Peen under the cafe of Messrs. k writ, and Co.
for the removal of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c.
and having received ' a radical-and permanent Cure, rgquest
that references may be given to thew, as satisfactory evi-
dences'of the decisive superiority of Mes,.rs. Currie and Co's.
plan of treatment. Many of these Gentlemen have had ;(
tures from to to 'zo years, and had been under the care of
Messrs. Home, Heaviside, and other Surgeons of equal etni.;
nence, who attempted the cure by the application of the
Lunar Caustic, withoUt success.

Messrs. Currie and Co. may be consulted by either sex
with the 'greatest 'delicacy, secrecy,s and honour,. at their
house, No. 107, Hatton-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 or sent to any part or the kingdom. To
ensure that secrecy so essential to their undertaking, the post-
age of letters may be added to the account for medicines.
