by the finer feelings of the heart are oasis in the
life of those who sacrifice their best days in philan=

frail mortality. Empiricism floods the columns
of our press with fraudulent and fictitious letters
singing peans to the worth of their egotistical

CERTIFICATE.

The undersigned, desirous of acquainting those
who may be unfortunate enough to be similarly
afflicted where a permanent relief Of their suffer-
ings may be obtained. he feels it his duty to thus
publicly express his sincere gratitude to DR.. l.. j.
Czapkay. for the permanent recovery OF his
health Borne down by the distressing symptoms
incident to the vicious practices of uncomfortable
passion in YOUTH depressed in body and mind,
unable to perform even the most triii ing duty i'm
posed upon the daily avocations of life sought
the advice of many physicians who at first regard

terable horror that instead ofrefief the symptoms
became more alarming in their torture, and being
finally told by one that the disease being princi-
pally confined to the brain. medicines would be Of
little consequence, despaired of ever regaining
my health. strength and energy and as a last
resort, and without faint hope called upon Dr.:
CZapkay, who: after examining my case, pre-
sCrbed some medicine which almost instantly re-
lieved me of the dull pain and dizziness in my
head. Encouraged by this result, resolved to
place myself Immediately under his care and, by
q strict obedience to his directions and advice,
my head became clear, my ideas collected, the
constant pain in my back and gr0ins the weak
ness Of my limbs, the nervoiis reaction of my
whole system on the slightest alarm or excitement,
the msanthropy and evil forboding. the self-dis-
trust and want of confidence in others the inca
pablity to study and want of resolution, the
frghtful, exciting. and at times pleasurable
dreams at night followed by Involuntary dis
charges, have all disappeared, and, in fact in two
months after having consulted the Doctor. felt
as if inspired by new life--that which, but Il
short time ago, contemplated to end by my own
hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from fall
ing into the snares Of incompetent quacks, deem
il my duty to offer this testimony to the merit
and skill Of DR.. Czapkay, and recommend him to
all who may stand in need of med cal advice, be-
