IMPORTANT To MINERS, TRAVELLERS, ETc-Therc
i is no malady of deeper importance, either in a
medical or moral point of view, to which the hui
man family is more liable than that arising from
impure connection.
As a medical man, il is the duty of every phys-
clan to look at disease as it affects health and life
and his sole object should be to mitigate, far as
lies in his power, the bodily suffering. Humun
ture at best is but fra all liable to misfortune
OF all the ills that affect man. none are more ter
rible than those of private nature. Dreadful as
il is in the person who contracts it, frightfu as are
its ravages upon his constitution ending frequently
in destruction and loathsome grave, ii becomes of
still greater Importance when II is transmitted to
innocent offspring. Such being the case how ne
cessary it becomes that every one having reason to
fear that they have contracted the disease should
attend to it at once by consulting some physician,
whose respectability and education enables him to
warrant safe, speedy, and permanent cure. In ac-
cordance with this necessity, Dr. Young feesc called
upon to state that, by long study and extensive
practice he has become perfect master of all those
diseases, which come under the denomination of We
nereal, and having paid more attention to that one
branch than any other physician in the United States
he feels himself better qualified to treat them
Syphilis in all its forms, such as ulcers, swelling
In the grons ulcers in the throat secondary syphil

excoriations tumors postuies, etc. are as familiar
to him as the most common things Of daily obserya-
ton.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in few
days and finds no difficulty In curing those of long
duration, without submitting the patient TO such
treatment will draw upon him the slightest sus-
picion, oblge him to neglect his business wheth-

changed, except in cases of severe Inflammation
