There is no malady of deeper Importance,
either in medical or moral point of view. to
which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections
As a medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it affects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti
gate, as far as lies in his power, the bodily suf
fering. Human nature at best is but fraiI; all
are liable to misfortune.
VI all the ills that affect man, none are more
terrible than those Of a private nature. Dread
tul as it is in the person who contracts it
frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
ton, ending frequently in destruction and a
oathsome grave, it becomes Of still greater i'm
portance when it is transmitted to innocent Off
spring Such being the case how necessary it
becomes that every one having the least reason
to tear that they have contracted the disease.
should attend to it at once, by consulting some
physician, whose responsibility and education
enables him to warrant safe speedy and per-
manent cure. In accordance with this necessj-
ty. DIR. YOUNG feels 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 venereal
and having paid more attention to that branch
than any other physician in the United States.
Syphilis in all its forms, such as Swelling of
the Groins, Ulcers, Ulcers in the Throat, Sec
ondary Syphilis, Cutaneous Eruptions, Ulcera-
tions, Tertiary Syphilis, Syphilis in Children.
Mercurial Syphilitic Affections, Gonorrhna
Gleet, Structures, False Passages inflammation
of the Bladder and PROSTATE Glands, Excoria-
tions, Tumors, Pustules, ETC., are as familiar to
him as the most common things of daily obser
vaton.
The Doctor effects cure in recent cases in a
few days, and finds no difficulty in curing those
OF long duration, without submitting the pa
tient to such treatment as will draw upon him
the slightest suspicion, or oblige him TO neglect
his business, whether within doors or without.
The diet need not be changed, except in cases
OF severe inflammation. There are in California
patients, amounting to over two thousand in
the past year, that could furnish proof of this

This occurred at indianapolis on Tuesday
