PROFESSOR HUNGERFORD.
Although opposed to the system of
advertising yet we deem it but Just to
this gentleman to admit that his system
of treatment in Private Diseases is I'M
doubtedly the most approved one now
in use throughout the civilized world.
FROM DR.. HUNGERFORD'S
PRIVATE MEDICAL Rooms, Corner of
Washington st and Washington place
opposite the Hall Records and the
Lafayette Restaurant,
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.
Where all diseases of private char
acter receive the treatment necessary
to effect speedy and effectual cure of
those annoying and distressful COM
plants. The enviable reputation DR..
Hungerford has earned for himself by
his extraordinary success in all diseases
of private nature, renders it but nee
essary to state his address; he there
fore avoids the long advertisements OF
bombastic promises of the empires Of
the day, so lavishiy held out but seldom
fulfilled. Medicines are sent to all
parts of the country, with directions for
their USE
NOCTURNAL EMISSIONS, Ul-
Gerry in the Throat, Syphilis, Gonorr-
hea, Structures, elect, and those dread
full symptoms of the head, throat, nose
and skin, under the Hungerford treat
ment, are healed in an incredibly short
time, without mercury. Young men
who have become victims of solitary
vice, that dreadful and destructive hab-
it, which ruins both body and mind,
call Immediately on DR.. Hungerford,
and you can depend on being restored
to health, that greatest of Gods bless
ings.
STONE GRAVEL, &c.-The ef-
fcacy of DR.. Hungerford's Lithron
Triptic has proved beyond doubt to
be the most certain cure in the above
named most painful cases that the hu-
man frame is subject to.

OF SAN NCIS co

READ AND REFLECT.
eff there is a hereafter,
And that there is, conscience unin-
fuenced,
And suffered to speak out, tells every
man,
Then it is an awful thing to die,
More horrid yet to die by ones own
hand,
Selt-murder-name it not
Shall Nature, swearing from her ear
Hest dictate,
Self preservation, fall by its own act
Forbid it, Heaven"
THE indulgence in secret practices is
the most certain, though not always the
most immediate and direct avenue to
destruction. Physicians of all ages have
been most unanimously of opinion that
the loss of one ounce of the seminal Sc
cretions, by unnatural aid or emissions,
weakens the system more than the abb
straction of forty ounces of blood. One
of the FIRST writer's on medical juris-
prudence states that three tourths of
the insane owe their malady to such a.
buse.
How important, then. it is-for every
enc having the least cause to suspect
any trouble in that way, should attend
to it Immediately; even one single oc-
currence should be sufficient to cause
doubt, and much more so if the person
had ever INDUCED in the soul-killing
habit The treatment pursued by the
justly celebrated Or. j. c. Young, in
cases Of seminal weakness, impotency,
sterility, nervous debility, and paralysis,
(the last is the most dangerous, and
when it once occurs, is incurable,) is
surpassed by any physician in the coun-
try. 1t is the same as that followed by
him for years, under the guidance of
the world renowned Record of Paris,
and Acton of London. DR.. Young's
Office is corner of Montgomery and Cal
ifornia streets, opposite Page, Bacon &
Co., San Francisco, California, where
he can be consulted upon that and all
other private diseases, with the utmost
confidence and secresy. Dr. Young

A CARD.

FROM DR.. j. C.. Young's Private
Medical Office.-To THE AFFLICTED.
In this age of progress, when science is
developing itself in such manner as to
appear almost miraculous, everything in
common place is looked upon as not
worth notice. In view of this fact, DR..
YOU'VE, corner of Montgomery and
California streets, San Francisco, Cali
fornia, has concluded to leave the beat
en- track hitherto pursued by most sci
entifc physicians, Chat of waiting for
the public to find you out alone, and
publish to the world ,as much as may be,
his knowledge of the healing art, to let
those who are in need of assistance
know where they can find relief, with
out fear of being imposed upon.
In continuation of this object, Dr.
Young would say that for the past ten
years he has pursued the practice of
medicine in one of the largest cities of
the United States, with the highest sue
cess, and that his standing as physi-
clan is without reproach, having at one
time been lecturer at the University of
Pennsylvania on venerial diseases, &c.
Upon all these considerations, DIR.
Young has confidence in introducing
himself to the public, knowing that they
will sustain well earned merit.
The following are few of the many
testimonials, which have appeared in the
public journals the last few years:
From the Boston Medical journal.
Although we are opposed to the sys-
tenn of advertising, for good and suffi-
cient reasons, still we deem it but JUS
tice to say that DR.. Young is one of the
most industrious and indefatigable vo-
taries of the medical science in the Uni
ted States.
From Professor Jackson.
The subscriber is personally acquaint-
ed with Dr. Young, and has cen much
of his practice, and can bear testimony
to his merits as practitioner.
From the New York Herald
The eminence of this distinguished
gentleman in his profession, and the
very extended opportunities possessed
by him for the observation of veneral
disease, makes his services invaluable
to those afflicted with the above COM
plants.

cures all the most aggravated cases of
this disease, and mild ones he removes
in from two to five days. The doctor
has for many years, been known as the
most eminent and successful physician
in the United States, and what is more
important to the patient, he always ef-
fects a speedy and permanent cure.
Travellers, seamen, miners and 9TH
ers, who wished to be cured without
mercury, hindrence from business, or
exposure to friends, should apply to him
as soon as possible, and perfect cure
will be guaranteed in all durable cases.

" THE PROPER STUDY OF MANKIND is
MAN."
BY J.C. YOUNG. MD.
Author of "Comparative Anatomy"
ETC., Graduate of the University of Penn
sylvania, Honorary Member Of the Roy
al College of Surgeons, etc., etc.
The above work is emphatically the
book for the age. 1t is one of the most
complete works of the kind that has ever
been published, presenting as it does the
minute analysis of every form of veneri-
al disease incident to both sexes, and
above all entering into and describing
particularly the awful work of that ter
rible disease SO common among young
men, known as masturbation. The
knowledge to be derived by every one
in having copy of this work in their
possession is beyond conception; as any
person who has the slightest reason to
believe that they are afflicted with a
disease, of which they have been igno-
rant, can, by referring to its pages, in a
few minutes fully understand the nature
of that disease, and be made aware of
the effects attending it; and thus they
may in season apply the proper remedies
and avert it's heretofore unseen progress,
which was fast undermining their con-
stitution, and would have resulted either
in death, or what is as awful to contem-
plate, destroying forever the health and
happiness of the unfortunate victim.
In the preparation of this work, the
author has not only given practical
exposition of his own labors, but has
freely consulted and compiled from the
works of the most popular writer's Of the
day, thus presenting careful and well
digested compendium of the most impor-
tant facts and principles furnished by
the ablest writer's that ever lived. This
is sufficient, it is hoped as test of its
accuracy and of its untold practical value
and utility
On the recei pit of one dollar, this in
valuable work will be sent to any part
of the state.
All those who may desire one copy
or more of this work will please direct
their orders to DIR. J. C. YOUNG, cor
ner Montgomery and California streets,
