part OF the man are truly lamentable, but triling

understood by the regular practitioner Among
the symptoms most conspicuous are the following:
Love Of solitude, aversion to business and socie-
ty. distressing timidity. nervous excitement from
slight causes, low spirits and lasstude, dulness
of apprehension, and misanthropy. These being
functional arrangements, are often the harbngers
of horrid organic LESSONS Of the brain, which pro-
duces faulty, dementia and death.
For the cure Of this and all kindred diseases.
DR.. l.. j. Czapkay has established his Institute,

DEWARE OF IMPOSITION.-In consequence
ID of the wide spread celebrity OF DR.. Dung,
numerous imposters have sprung into existence,
pretending to be perfect masters Of the healing
art and have Succeeded in imposing upon few
of the unwary sufferers. Persons wishing to con
suit a physician, should be very careful how they
put confidence in the published statements of such
charlatans for they are as INSCRIPTIONS in such
statements as in their practice of medicine, and
are very unsafe to trust. They will first deceive
YOU by false certificates. procured from drunken
loafers," who perjure themselves to get money to
satisfy the cravings ofa diseased appetite. When
such ouack gains your confidence, he will then
dose you with mercury and other poisonous drugs
and after they have robbed you of your money
and iniured your constitution, they will cast you
off, with the charge that you have not followed
their directions.
The only way to avoid such imposters, isto con
suit Dr. j. G. Young, the Pioneer Advertising Ply
scian of California. At meeting of the Medi-
cal Faculty in this State. called to gate the
source of malpractice that has caused so much
suffering in this country, it was unanimously re
commended that all the afflicted should consult
DR.. Young, as he was the only regularly educated
Physician now advertising in California. all others
in his line being quacks and impostors, and are
not to be trusted. The afflicted will please take
notice. that there not physician at the meet
ing who had ever seen or heard Of single case
of malpractice from DR.. Young. while not one Of
them but had seen a number of cases from the
foreign quacks, who so vauntingly set forth their
pretended virtues in Tie public prints
| The above facts should be borne in mind by all
| seeking medical assistance.
Thank heaven, they are getting throughly eX-
posed, and it will not be long before they will
have to fly the country, to avoid the just indgna-
tion of an outraged public Then will all good
people thank DR.. Young for his continued efforts
| to hanish quackery from our midst.

EMPORTANT-DR. J. c. YOUNG wishes to call
4 the attention of inyGids to his course of prac
tce. The Dr. has long since abandoned the mer
cural treatment, and has strictly followed the
Vegetable Practice. Patients under treatment
with him are not confined to the house. nor taken
from their business, but can go about and eat as
asual. The Dr.'s mode Of treatment in sases Of
debility, both general and sexual. is not surpassed
by any physician, and always results in a perfect
removal of their troubles. Dir. Y. has discovered
a new mode OF treating affections of the Liver.
which after fair trial has been submitted to the
Professors of several of the medical institutes Of
the States. and pronounced by them, as perfectly
successful and has been adopted by them in their
practice In the treatment OF ncipcnt consump-
ton, and diseases Of the blood, the Dr. stands pre-
eminent in his proIesson and viii Warranta cure
in all cases. The following testimonial speakcs
for itself
DIR. J. C. YOUNG. Sir Your mode Of treat
ing affections Of the Liver, and diseases of the
Blood, has proved, by repeated trials. to be the
best yet afforded to the faculty, and has been
adopted by the board Continue to study the
hnman system as you have DONE and you will
yet stand at the head Of your profession.
