CHALLENGE.

MESSRS. CURRIE and Co. Stirgenns, late in ltiis Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to i r..v, a
single instance where their Medicine and method of cute ' .ve
failed of the desired effect. The practice of many yi ar ~.1
particular branch of their profession has nut given rise to i.na
unsuccessful case.

They continue to direct their studies to the treatment and r••••
of Venereal Complaints, and that derangement of the iy.tets,
which is the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful eltivt?•sta
habit long and most unhappily pursued by the youths of lath sews,
in the one It win be found to be the unfailing source ut halm .
ness ; the other have its ravages fatally developed to them by a Ain-
tressing state of debility, winch, if not timely remedied, terminates
in impotence. 'Phase are its remote and ultimate effects, while
suntptions, loss of muscular power,and various nervous complaints
usuaXy.characterise the artier stages of this sohtar y Of per-
sons languishing under the disogiers incident to such a habit, their
treatment is simple and Las never proved unsuccessful, in the
course of a long, laborious, and much extended practice. In the
most obstinate and complicated cases of venerea: infection, Aids
as obstructions in the urethra, spungy excrescences, bard tu.
mours, 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 anon permanently cured, without thepatient
suffering the excruciating pain and alarming hemorrhage sviiiebt
often follows the application of the lunar caustic. In the coia-se of
20 years extensive practice in this metropolis, numerous cases it
Strictures have been and are daily under their are, the total
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 proceeding Irons this complaint,
is speedily removed, and the patient re:tored to sound and vi.
prous 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 Coustitutino.
Several Noblemen and Gentlemen, of the first respectability,
have been under the care of Messrs. Currie and Co. for the re-
moval of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, &c. and, having
received a radical and permanent cure, request that refilv.ices
may be made to them as satisfactory evidences of the decided su-
periority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s plan of treatm nt. Many
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures front ten to twenty ytars,
and had been under the care of Messrs. Home and Heaviside",
and other surgeons of equal eminence, who attempted de cures
by the application of the lunar caustic, without success.
Messrs. Currie and Co. may be consulted by either sex with the
greatest delicacy, secrecy, and honour, at their house, No. Ita,
Hatton-Garden. Patients in the country are requested to state
the particulars of their case, age, and general habit of living, Ste.
inclosing a remittance for advice and medicines, when the sane
will be given or sent to aqy 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.

TO THOMAS TAYLOR, ESQ.
N 0.9, NEW BRIDGE-STRUT, LONDON.

HONOURED all,
IBEI"; leave to inform you, that ever since the YeAr
1790,1 had been afflicted with the Lues Venerea ; which, from
Its obstinately resisting every course of medicine prescribed by the
most eminent of the faculty here, and undergoing several seas
courses of salivation, and twice discharged from the Hospitalovidi
little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. la
the spring of last year my disorder bad got to such a head, se
nearly to put a period to my existence. I had i large ulcer on the
crown of my bead, one on each arm, and my legs were broken
out (ma frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, sad
had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years; my kit
had also two nodes upon it, was very snuck discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm is bed, se
nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I was re-
commended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure
by them here.) to take you: Leake's Patent Pills, which 1 Inas
to do oat the 26th May ; in the roam of a fortnight I beg" t°
receive benefit—in little more than a month the ulcers on my
bead and arma were soundly healed—soon after, the sores oat my
leg healed also : leaving, however, considerable discolours-
doe in the skins and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the
blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invalus
ble Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin regablinf
itsnatural hues and the nocturnal
pains gradually going off-1 thee
I became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly freebies
my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits so/
strength, and ant become jolly and fat, in which statehaving our
tinned many months to the astonishment of all who knew me, I
am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but bee re
for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case ae
public as possible, as I shall on every occasion—in so doiag yes
will greatly gblige, Sir, your grateful obedient very humble we.
