GRATITUDE is THE

COMPLETION OF TH.4NK-FUkNESS.
FINlE ingratitnde of man to his fellow man is so
L often met with in life that testimonials
prompted by the finer feelings of the heart are
oasis in the life Of those who sacrifice their best
DAYS in philanthropc devotion to the alienation
of the ills of frail mortality. Empiricsm floods
the columns Of our press with fraudulent and icti-
tious letters, singing peans to the worth of their
own egotistcal charatanism Below we append
letter from a worthy man who, a brief period since
seemed destined to shuttle oil this mortal coil who
looked forward to his dissolution with that pleas
ure which only those weighed down by the heavy
hand of disease can. Contrary TO hope the ability
of a skillful physician has restored him to his for
mer health Relieved from his terrible situation
and impelled by gratitude, he makes known his
case and remedial agent and his statement is au-
thenticated by a Notary Public, The demands of
society imperiously command its publicity and it
is given more to warn the unWary han TO sound the
praises Of physician of whom Of like cases
can be ctcd

their suGerngs may be obtained. feels it his duty
to thus publicly express his most sincere gratitude
to DR. l.. J. Czapkay for the permanent recovery Of
his health Borne down by the distressing symp-

trollable passion in youth; depressed in body and
mind. unable TO perform even the most trifng duty
imposed upon the daily ayoeations Of life; l
sought the advice Of many physicians, who at first
regarded my disease of trAing importance but
alas! after few weeks, and in several instances
months, of their treatment, found TO my unutter-
able horror that instead of relief the symptoms
became alarming in their torture; and, being told
by one that my disease. being principally confined
to the brain. medicines would be of little conse-
quence, despalred Of ever regaining my health
strength aud energy; and as last resort, and with
but faint hope. called upon DR.. Czapkay. who af-

which almost instantly relieved me of the dull
pain and dizziness in my head. Encouraged by
this result, resolved to place myself Immediately
under his care and by strict obedience to all his
directions and advice, my head became clear. my
ideas collected, the constant pain in my back and
groins the weakness of my limbs, the nervous re-
action of my whole body the slightest alarm or
excitement; the misanthropy and evil forebodings
the incapablity to study and want of resolutions

short time ago, contemplated to end by my own
hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from fall

it my duty to offer this testimony to the merit ami
skill Of DR.. Czapkay and recommend him to all
who are in need Of medical advice, being assured
