- ' A 'CHALLENGE.
MESSES. CURRIE and Co. Surgeons, late in
his Mailessy'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 eraclice of amity. ,
years In this particular branch of their profession has not aired
rise to one onsuecessful case. They continue to direct their
studies to the treatment laid cure of VENEREAL COM-
PLAINTS, and that derangement of the system, which is the
consequence of the pernicious and wasteful erects of a habit long
surd most unhappily pursued by the youths of both sexes. In
the one it will be found to be the unfeiling source of Biserenness;
the other have its ravnges fatally developed to them by a dis-
tressing state of debility, which, if mat timely remedied, termi-
nates in Impotence. These are its remote and ultitaate effects;
while consumptions, loss of muscalur power, aSd various Der.
wins complaints, usually characterise the earliest slays of this
solitary vice; of persons languishing ureter disorders incident to
such a habit, their treatment is simple, and has Dever proved an-
successfirl in the course of a long, laborious, and much extended

CM—Having experienced so much .benefit from your PA-1
TINT ANTI-SCORBUTIC DROPS, without ingratitude, I
let it remain linkup,.s to yourself and the public. I was
1:ally afflicted w itb the Scurvy is nay legs, which for two-years
graoLtally became worse, till I had above 40J holes in meta,
Omer-tin of which were much brander than a shilling. Alv
state brill; known to a humane Gentleman, he informed me of
to ca,e very similar to mine ; the person had been confined to lied
the creule,l part of two years, and by tukiog n few sulall-bat-
ties of your w:t4 soon cured. By his recommendation,
1 wow ibtliteed to give them a trial ; and to my great rurprise
and coatf.ot; I soon found my sores healed, and after taking
three mull bottle,,. ['mild do my work n ithout inconvenience.
To prevent the re;tito of the disiase, I lake about one small
bat.le each year. which has fully succeeded to my wishes; and
I remain your obliged humble servant,
IVitnees, Joseph THOMAS KENNARD.
