A man will be what his most cherished
feelings are. If he encourage noble gen.
erosity, every feeling will be enriched by it;
if he nurse bitter and envenomed thoughts,
his own spirit will absorb the poison; and
he will crawl among men as FURNISHED ad-
der, whose life is mischief, and whose errand
is death.

IMPORTANT to the afflicted.

a Il Among the most dreadful malades that can
betal man is that of SYPHILIS. From its first ap-
peaTance hundreds OF years ago, to the present
day its rayages in whatever form they have as
sumed, have been loathesome and revolving to
the eye. How highly necessary it is then that
those who are afflicted with this direful disease
should have it attended to at once without a mo-
ment's delay. If person discovers that he has
any premOnitOry symptoms of Syphilis and al
lows himself to be placed under the care of mex
perienced and incompetent hands or suffers HIM
self to undergo no treatment at all, these affec-
tiOns will disappear to be followed at no distant
day by series of symptoms resulting in a form
Of Syphalis more malignant and dreadful than
before This is the fatal consequence of pro-
crastination or result of the fell hands of the
mountebank. Imagine then the horror, the de-
spair of the poor unfortunate victim as he beholds
the most virulent form of ulcers in his throat on
his lips and in his nasal fOss9. In short he sees
himself covered from head to foot with excres-
cenceS and supperatlng tumOrS. His situation is
deplorable in the extreme. Constant an unceasing
pains rack every bone; his head aches continually:
the nails on his fingers peal Off and in short there
is general debility which brings on marasmus and
death. To those who would avoid all this and
desire to be saved DR.. j. G. Young assumes the
responsibility, and herewith states that whenever
any of the primary symptoms of this disease make
their appearance (either in chancres, a flow of
matter or mucous pustules) to call Immediately
on him and place themselves under his treatment.
1t is now conceded that no member of the faculty
better understands the treatment of this disease
than he This one disease has been his study for
years, and he now takes pride in openly declar-
ing that he is able and also pledges himself to
cure Syphilis in any and every form, whether it
be primary, secondary or tertiary. His treatment
Is rational and effcacious. The rules of hygiene
no physician better understands who attempts to
act upon them.
