NhR. RAWSON'S celebrated urethritic
Ell Balsam for the cure of gonnorrhe,
elects, and seminal weakness. This elegant
Balsam has the astonishing power Of relieving
the inflammation, and putting an end to the
virulcnt discharge in a few days. The aston
shlng medical powers Of the urethritic balsams
have been fairly tested for several years in the
cure of hundreds. 1t is a pure vegetable pro
duction without particle Of mercury. The
proprietor has thought proper to offer it in this
more for the convenience of persons afflicted
with diseases Of this nature; as there are many
young people, who, for fear of exposure TO
medical man, vii! have recourse TO the dam
gerous expedient OF prescribing for themselves,
and taking Unfortunately pointed and pow
erful medicines to the risk and injury Of their
constitutions which the general knowledge Of
this remedy will in great measure obviate. as
there will be nothing else necessary but the
strict observance of the rules and directions
laid down. Accompanying every bottle will
be found complete and full directions for the
