TRIBUTE TO MERITED WORTH.

THE ingrattude of man to his fellow man is so
| often met 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 philan
thropic devotion to the alleviation of the ills of
fral mortality. Empircism floods the columns
of our press with fraudulent and fictitious letters,
singing peans to the worth of their egotistical
charIatanism. Below we append letter from
worthy man who, brief period since seemed
destined to shuttle off this mortal coll 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 skilful physician has restored him TO his for
mer health. Relieved from his terrible situation,
and impeIed by gratitude, he makes known his
case and remedial agent, and his statement is au-
thenticaed by a notary public. The demands Of
society mperously command its publicity and it
is given more to warn the unwary than to sound
the praises Of physician Of whom scores of like
cases can be cited:

The undersigned, DESTROYS of acquainting those
who may be unfortunate enough to be similarly
afflicted where permanent relief of their suffer
ings may be obtained, he feels it his duty to thus
publicly express his sincere gratitude to DR.. L. ].
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 trihing duty i'm
posed upon the daily avOcaions Of life, / sought
the advice fmany physicians, who al first regard
ed my disease as OF triling Importance, but. alas
after a few weeks. and in several instances
months. of their treatment, found, to my unut-
tcrable horror that instead of relief the symptoms
became more alarming in their torture and being
finally told by one that the disease, being princ-
pally confined to the brain, medicines would be of
little consequence, despaired of ever reganing
my health, strength and energy and as a last
resort, and without faint hope, called upon DR..
Czapkay, who after examining my case pre4
scribcd some medicine which almost instantly re-
lieved me Of the duh pain and dizziness in my
head. Encouraged by this result resolved to-
place myself Immediately under his care, and, by
a strict obedience to his directions and advice
my head became clear, my ideas collected, the
constant pain in my back and groins the weak
ness of my limbs, the nervous reaction Of NV
whole system on the slightcstalarm or excitement
the misanhFopy and evil forboding, the sclfdis-
trust and want of confidence in others, the inca
pabilty to study and want Of resolution. the
trighttul, exciting, and at times plcasnrable
dreams at night, followed by involuntary dis
charges, have all disappeared, and in fact. in two
months after having consulted the Doctor, fclt
as if inspired by new lifc--thas which, bnt
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
1t 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 medical advice, be-
ing assured by my own experience that once un-
der his care, radical and permanent cure will
be effected. b r. FILLMORE
