THE CHLORIDE OF GOLD

For Primary Syphilis. How long have the
medical profession tried in vain to discover some
the reputical agent that could be relied upon to
cure disease more to be dreaded than all others
combined. Some Quack Doctors advertise to cure
venereal diseases without the use of mercury
But their statements are false. We have taken
pains to collect the receipts of some who make
a great noise, and we find that they use the To-
dine of Mercury for everything, whether it is
proper or not, and since we find them misrepre-
senting in this particular we have reason to sus-
pect them and "ld omne genus in all their pre-
tensions
Gentlemen there never was q remedy capable
of curing the disease without mercury, until the
discovery of the Chloride of Gold and we submit
it to the test, having thoroughly tried it, and
know it to possess all the qualities attributed to it..
DIR. Christian sayS:-The Chloride of Gold is
capable of curing Syphalis under all its forms,
and that in its general operations ON the system,
it possesses many advantages over mercury. 1t
is efficaciOus, yet gentle 1t may be administered
with perfect safety at all seasons of the year and
under any complication of the disease. Persons
of either sex may be put upon it with equal safe
ty, the only caution enoined is strict temperance
In other respects the patient is not required to
change his mode of living.
DR.. Samuel L. Mitchell, the distinguished sur
geOn of New York, speaks in the following words
The Chloride of Gold possesses admirable vir-
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets well I'M

San FRANCISCO, April 7th, 1855

To DR.. L. j. CzAPKAY, San Francisco.
Dear Sir:-Before having made application to
you, had called upon several physicians, from
whom obtained but little satisfaction. l was
told by one that my disease was incurable, and
that the headache, dizziness. nervousness, timid-
ity, selfdistrust loss of memory love of solitude,
wanderings of my mind, and sometimes partial
insanity, were evidences of organic disease of
the brain, for which medicine would be of lite
service. Having brought on three symptoms by
my own folly, l was almost frantic with despair
when | saw your advertisement and called upon
you How great has been my relief; all the above
symptoms have been relieved, besides which
have recovered my bodily health. Believing that
there are many suffering in the same manner, you
have my permission to publish ihis letter, and
can refer any one to me for confirmation.
Gratefully yours,

All Diseases of the Eye Cured with unfaiI-

DIR. W. A. SNYDER, Oculist.

DR.. ". a bN 1DhR, Ucullst.
DR. W. A. SNYDER's mode of treating disea-
- ses of the Eye differs materially from the
course commonly pursued by Physicians. Be
lieving that most diseases of The Eye have their
origin in obstructed circulation or an impure
state of the system, his remedies will be pre-
scribed with reference to the disease with which
the patient may be afflicted; and by equalizing
the circulation, removing obstruction and restOr-
ing the general health of the patient, the Eyes
may be permanently cured without the use of
eostic or any of the irritating applications in
general use. DIR. S. would say to those who have
exhausted the skill of all others without relief.
not to despair of cure without giving him a
trial. for in all cases where vision is not entirely
lost, or the Eye not completely disorganized there
is still hope.

A SKILLFTL PHYsICIAN.-Dr. l.. J. Czapkay
has opened an Office at No. l6 Pleasant street. in
this city. DR.. c. is a Hungarian by birth, and
was connected with the patriotic army as physi-
clan and surgeon under the patronage of Kos
suth He combines with finished education and
the most refined and agreeable manners, the most
extensive scientific abilities and skill in his pro-
fession, and we feel much pleasure in recon-
mending him to our citizens as physician and
gentleman. DR.. CZapkay has spent some time in
Philadelphia, where he won the confidence and
friendship of those with whom he became ac-
quainted. Among his friends in Philadelphia,
are gentlemen of the highest respectability, with
whom we are personally acquainted. He had an
extensive practice in Hungary, before the Aus
trians and Russians compelled him to leave it for
being found guilty of excessive patriotism. We
hope he will receive the patronage due a man of
so eminent capacity.
The above are only a few of the many tcstimo-
mails which DIR. Czapkay has in possession, but
cannot publish for want of space. All cOnsulta-
