nR. L. J. CZAPKAY is daily receiving appli-
~ cations from every part of this State, and
from Oregon and Washington Territories, for
treatment of every form of disease, and there is
not one who will come forward and express dis
satisfaction; on the contra ~, the Doctor is daily
in receipt of letters expressive of gratitude and
thankfulness, some of which are published be-
low by permission:
SACRAMENTO, May Is, 1855.
DEAR SR:-Such is the thankfulness l feel
for the preservation of my health of body and
mind, and believe of my life, that hope [ will
not be considered obtrusive in rendering my
thankful Acknowledgements for restoring me to
health, end making my life boon worth pre-
serving, when it had become burden too great
for me to bear. Victim as was to vice that had
undermined my constitution and developed a
train of nervous symptoms, such as nervous de-
bility, headache, distressing timidity, self-dis-
trust, dizziness love of solitude, loss of memory
and want of resolution, besides loss of strength
and energy, which made my waking moments
wretched and my sleep unrefreshing, and was
fast bringing me to the grave; but, thanks to
your SKILL | am restored to health, vigor and en-
ergy. Hoping to guide others where they may
find relief you have my permission to make this
public. Gratefully yours,
LEONARD WAITE.

DR.. L. J. CzAPKAY, San Francisco-Sir:-I
have used the last of your medicine, and do not
think shall need any more, as 1 feel very well,
except that have not entirely got my strength
yet, but soon will, with the appetite that have.
1t is just three weeks, you map recollect, since
called at your Institute, with my constitution, as
| thought, entirely broken, and never thought
you would be able to cure me perfectly, but tho't
you might be able to do something to ease the
pain in my back and head and strengthen my
limbs, which were so weak that they would al
most give way under me when | walked, and to
strengthen my nerves so that | would not get ex-
cited and tremble at every little thing. Now that
you know what l expected, you may judge at my
satisfaction at my complete recovery from those
symptoms, and the removal of those splotches
and sores from my skin, and the ulcers from my
throat, and the entire stoppage of those ennis
sions, which you said were principally the cause
of my sickness.
l can hardly tell you which is the greatest, nv
joy or my surprise, for except not having fully
got my strength, feel as well as any man can
feel.
Enclosed send you twenty dollars over YOUR
charge, and think myself cheaply cured If YOU
think anybody will be benefited, you may nut
this letter in the newspapers.
Believe me, gratefully yours.

TO THE AFFLICTED-Dr. L. J. Czapkay
has opened his institute for the cure of all forms
of private diseases, such as Syphilis, Gonorrhea,
Nocturnal Emissions, and all the consequences
of selfabuse In the first stages of Syphllltic or
Gonorrhoeal diseases, he guarantees cure In a
few days, without inconvenience to the patent,
or hindrance to his business. When patient,
by neglect or improper treatment, has developed
the secondary symptoms of syphilis, such as bu-
boes or painful swellings of the grons, or ulcers
in the throat and nose, which if not checked de-
stroy the soft parts and cause the bones to NOR
tify, separate and come away, leaving tne suner-
er an object hideous to behold; or when splotches
OF pimples break out upon the skin, or when he
has painful swellings upon the bones, or When
his constitution is injured so as to predlspose TO
consumption or other constitutional disease, the
Doctor guarantees a cure or asks no cOmpenSa-
tiOn
In Rheumatism, chronic or acute; in Dysente-
ry or Diarrh9a, he has safe and etfectuat rene
dies. For the treatment of the consequences OF
self-abuse, such as nocturnal emissions, nervous
ness, timidity, headache, pains in the back and
limbs, with general weakness, loss of appetite,
loss of memory, injury to the sight, restlessncss,
confusion of IDEAS dislike for society, and feel
ing of WEAKNESS of life; with the nervous system
so eXcitable that slight noises shock or startle
the patient, making his existence miserable
For the above maades the Doctor will guaran-
tee a cure or ask no compensation. He can be
consulted free of charge and invites all to call
as it will cost them nothing, and may be much
to their advantage.

best physicians $50 called) in the mountain dis

he gave me medicines. | continued under his
treatment for three months without receiving anv
benefit, in fact grew worse from week to week

his opinion. / told him not to fear to tell me tbe
whole truth, for should rather know the worse
at once, than to live in suspense | had lost aft
bout thirty pounds of flesh, and knew that he at
least could not cure me, and as was then going
on, death must soon count me as one of its vic.
TINS. This physician then told me that nv case
was ncurable; that [ had better not take any
more medicines. He said was in decline which
was fast tending to pulmonary consumption.
then despalred of obtaining any relief. and
saw that unless something was done to mitigate
the complaint that | should be numbered with
IIle uedu' OF Wnat Is worse, be ravlng maniac.
Happening to see one of your books, the Pocket
AIsculapius, made up my mind at once to call
and consult you with the determination of trying
once more to get relief if you would undertake
the case. Oh how thankful am for that deter
mination l commenced taking the medicines
prescribed by you, and l am now, through their
healing powers, restored to perfect health. |
shall not fail to recommend you to an Cf nv
friends that require assistance, for a nan that
can cure case as bad as mine was, can cure ey.
cry disease that flesh is heir to, if their is life
enough left in the system to build upon.
Receive my most sincere and heartfelt thanks

TO THE AEFLICTED

Read the following LETTERS OF RECoMMENDA
TION, and then judge who are the bost ones with
whom to trust the treatment of your complaints.
Judge between DR.. ]. C. Young and those miser-
able quacks who ara filling the papers with their
vain boaslings; men without character or honor
who feel very sore because DR.. Young by expos
ing them, has prevented them from robbing the
community. Their time is short; like the mush-
room, they spring up in a night, they prey upon
the unwary for a short space and then disappear
and start off some other track, to rob the pub
lie, for they are naturally dishonest, and no one
will trust them in respectable business.
