MITE VIGOUR OF YOUTH RESTORED IN

FOUR WEEKS by Dr. RICORD'S ESSENCE OF
LIFE.

This wonderful agent will restore manhood to the most
shattered constitution, whether arising from self-pollution,
excesses, nocturnal emissions, the effects of climate, or natu-
ral causes. The time required to cure the most inveterate
case is four weeks ; and, if used according to the printed in-
structions (which are very simple), failure is impossible.
This life-restoring remedy should be taken by all about to
marry, as its effects are permanent. It is acknowledged by
the medical press to be the greatest discovery ever made.
Success in every case is as certain as that water quenches
thirst.

Dr. Ricord's Essence of Life is sold in cases, with full in-
structions for use, at its., or four quantities in one for 335.,
and may be sent to any part of the world, carefully packed,

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.
"Curtis on Manhood.—This is a truly valuable work, and
should be in the hands of young and old.' —" Sunday Times,"
23d larch, 1856.
"The author has conferred a great boon by üblishing this
'p
little work In which is described the source a those diseases
which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, 1856.
" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirial hostility, treats in aplain
and sympathising manner on the various disqualifications
and impediments arising ft um nervous excitement and de-
bility ; and to invalids suffering l'r•-nn youthful errors and
excesses it will be found valuable and useful."—Record.
