CI I A I.I..ENt;E.
MESSRS. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in
Majesty's Service, challenge the whole world to prove a
single instance where their Medicine and Method of cure have
failed of the desired effect. The practice of many years in tars
particular branch of their profession has not given rise to one
unsuccessful case.
'They continue to direct their etedies to the treatment and cure
of Venereal Complaints, and that derangA me It of the system,
whiclris the consequence of the pernicious and wasteful effects at a
i habit long 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 di,-
tressing state of debility, which, if not timely remedied, 'emit:a:to
in impotence. These are its remote and eltimateeffects, while car
sumptions, loss of muscular power, and various nervous complaints
usually characterise the earlier stages of this solitary vice. Of per-
sons languishing under the disorders inchleut to such a habit, their
treatment is simple and has never proved unsuceessful, in the
course of a long, laborious and much extended practice. In the
most obstinate and complicated cases of venereal infection, such
as obstructioss in the urethra, spongy excrescences, hard to-
mours,callous ulcers, eruptions, seminal weakness, gleets, as aloe

Several Noblemen and. Gentlemen, of the first respectabtlity,
have been under the care of Messrs. Currie and Co. for the tea
moval of complaints of the Urethra, Strictures, etc. and, barite;
received a radical and permanent cure, request that references
may be made to them as satisfactory evidences of the decided cuts
Iperiority of Messrs. Currie and Co.'s plan of treatnimit. Alator
of these Gentlemen have had Strictures from ten to twenty years,
