CHALLENGE.
MESS-RS. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in his
Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to pray» a
single instance where their Medicine and method of cure have
failed of the desired effect. The practice of many year, In this
particular branch of their profession has not given rise to one
unsuccessful case.

They continue to direct their studies to the treatment and cure
of Venereal Complaints, and that derangement of the system,
which is the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful effects of a
habit lung and most unhappily pursued by the youths of both sexes •
In the one it will be found to be the unfailing source of barren-
ness ; the other have its ravages fatally developed to them by a dis-
tressing state of debility, which, if not timely remedied, t en ninates

sons languishing under the disorders Incident to such a habit, their
treatment is simple and has never proved unsuccessful, in the
course of a long, laborious, and much extended practice. In the
most obstinate ati,d somplicated cases of venereal infection, such
as obstructions in the urethra, speingy excrescences, hard tu-
rnouts, callous ulcers, eruptions, seminal weakness, gkets, as also

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, without the patient
suffering the excruciating pain and alarming hemorrhage which
often follows the application of the lunar caustic. In the course of
20 years extensive practice in this metropulie, numerous cases ni
Strictures have been and are daily under their are, the twat
eradication of which are effected by a safe, certain, and expedi-
tious mode of practice, superior to any other yet adopted. The
weakness, relaxation, and debility proceedit:g from this complaint,
is speedily removed, and the patient re:tared to, ound and vi-
gorous health. But where the debility has for years existed, a
proper perseverance in their restorative remedies, after the Stric-
ture has been destroyed, is indispensably requisite to revive the
slumbering sparks of life. and to reanimate the Constitution.
Several NO)lemen and Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
have been under the care of Mend. Currie and Co. for the re-
moval of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c. and, having
received a radical and permanent cure, request that references
may be made to them as satisfactory. evidences of the decided su-
periority of Messrs. Currie and. Co.'s plan of treatment,. Many
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures from ten to twenty years,
and had been under the care of Messrs. Horne and Heaviside's,
arid other surgeons of, equal eminence, who attempted the cure
br the application of the lunar caustic, without success.
