medical or moral point of view, to which the hl-
man family is more liable than that arising from

! As a medical man, it is the duty of every physi-
clan to look at disease il affects health and life,
and his sole object should be TO mitigate as far as
lies in his power. the bodily suffering. Humun ma

OF all the Ills that affect man, none are more ter

il is in the person who contracts it. rightu as are
its ravages upon his constitution ending frequently
in destruction aud loathsome grave, ii becomes OF
still greater Importance when ii is transmitted to
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary il becomes that every one having to
fear that they have contracted the disease should

The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in few

treatment as will draw upon him the slightest sls-
