complaints caught by connection with had per.
sons OF the opposite sex. I had been treated by
some Of the best physicians as well as those

IHE CHLORIDE OF UOLO
For Primary Syphilis. How long have the
medical profession tried in vain to discover some
the-reputlcal 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 I'D omne genus; in all their pre
tensions
Gentlemen, there never was a remedy capable
of curing the disease without mercury until the
discovery of the Chloride of Gold. and we submit
il to the test, having thoroughly tried it, and
know to possess all the qualities attributed to it.
DR.. Christian says:-The Chloride of Gold is
capable of curing Syphalis under all its forms,
and that in its general operations ON the system,
Z II nOssesses many advantages over mercury. It
is efica 5ious, yet gentle. ltmayb 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 uponlt with equal saIe-
tv the only caution eniolned IS street 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 VIZ
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets we'll IN
der the operation Of the medicine, with incom-
parably less inconvenience, without the hazard
of sore mouth or salvation, and with very lit
tie wear and tear of the constitution. consider
the introduction Of this preparation in common
use, as one of the greatest improvements III mod
ern medicine, and [ wish it was already as uni
yersal as the malady it cures.
Other distinguished members Of the medical
profession have given testimony Of the great val
ne of the remedy, the statements OF whom we
have in our possession.
Gentlemen we shall be glad to see you at any
time-we are always prepared to attend to your
wants.
The above remedy Will be sent to any persons
address who sends the price Of the medicine
