MOUNTAIN SUNsHINE.-The noun
tain sunshine is more beautiful than that
which hangs gloriously over, and spreads
around, gilds and gladdens the valleys.
The mountain sunshine has ayellow beau
ty, as though it were celestial relative
of the earth-covered gold. 1t entertalns
few visitors from the white settlements OF
clouds, or stragglers from the army OF
dark storms. The mountain sunshine
has rough spirit of industry as well as
the purcst refinement 1t cannot endure
long periods of snow, or permit the white
counterpane spread upon the hills to re-
main, only little while; change of
green and brown, and variegated, must
be put on. The mountain sunshine is
immortal; it has its times of journeys,
but on returning, it goes on again, making
the present bright and telling us, and the
ancient hills, and all that is lower than
them, and the tree, brook and river. and
flower, that its radiant reign reaches ia
the coming of all the ages-,Sierra Cit.

ThankfulneSs is the Incentive to Gratitude.
C E r TIT FCA E.

The undersigned, desirous of acquainting
those who may be unfortunate enough to be
similarly afflicted, where permanent relief of
their sufferngs may be obtained, feels it his
duty to thus publicly express his most sincere
gratitude to DR.. l.. j. Czapkay for the perma-
nent recovery of his health. Borne down by
the distressing symptoms incident to the WIS.,
cious practice of uncomfortable passion ia
youth; depressed in body and mind, unable to
perform even the most trifing duty imposed
upon the daily avocations of life, sought the
advice of many physicians who at first re-
garded my disease as of trifing Importance :;
but, alas after a few weeks, and in several
instances months, Of their treatment, found
to my unutterable horror, that instead of re-
lief, my symptoms became more alarming in
their torture and, being told by one, that my
disease, being principally 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 with
but faint hope, called upon DR.. Czapkay
who, after examining my case, prescribed some
medicine 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 ad-
|SS'AiiN
the constant pain in my back and grons, the
weakness of my limbs, the nervous reaction of
my whole body on the slightest alarm or ex-
element; the misanthropy and evil forebo-
dings the self-distrust and want of confidence
in others; the incapability to study, and want
of resolution; the frightful, exciting, and at all
times pleasurable dreams at night, followed
by involuntary discharges, have all 'disap-
peared; and, in fact, in two months after hav-
ing consulted the Doctor, | felt as if inspired |
by a new life-that life which, but a short |
time ago, contemplated TO end by my own |
hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from
falling into the snares of incompetent quacks,
deem it my duty to offer this testimony to
the merit and skill of DR.. Czapkav, and rec
ommend him to all who may stand in need of
medical advice, being assured by my own ex-
perience, that once under his care a radical
and permanent cure will be effected

DRIvATE Medical and Surgical Institute


n DR.. L. j. Czapkay returns his sincere
thanks to his numerous patients for their pat
ronage, and would take this opportunity to re-
mind them that he continues to consult at his
Institute for the cure of all forms of Private
Disease such as Syphilis, GonorrhGa,
Nocturnal Emissions, and all the conse-
quences of self-abuse. In the first stages
OF Syphiltic or Gonorrheal diseases, he guar
antees a cure in few days, without in
convenience to the patient or hindrance to
his business. When patient, by neglect
or improper treatment, has developed the sec
ondary symptoms of Syphilis, such as buboes
or painful swellings on the groins, or ulcers
in the throat and nose, which, if not checked,
destroy the soft parts and cause the bones to
mortify, separate and come away, leaving the
sufferer an object hideous to behold or when
he has painful swellings upon the bones, or
when his constitution is injured so as to pre-
dispose to consumption, other consttu-
tional disease, the Doctor guarantees cure or
asks no compensation.
In RHEUMATISM, chronic or acute in
DYSENTERY or DIARRIIEA, he has safe
and effectual remedies. For the treatment of
the consequences of self-abuse, such as noe
turnai emissions nervousness, timidity, head
ache, pains in the back and limbs, with gen.
eral weakness, loss of appetite, loss of memo
ry, injury to the sight, restlessness, confusion
of ideas, dislike for society and feeling of
WEAKNESS of life; with the nervous system so
excitable that slight noises shock or startle
the patient, making his existence miserable.
For the above maladies the Doctor will guar
antee cure or ask no compensation. He can
be consulted free of charge, and invites all to
call, as it will cost them nothing, and may be
much to their advantage. His offices are at
the Medical Institute. Sacramento street, be-

GAMBL1NG.-This vice, TO say the least is
the ruin of any young man who INDUCES in it
A gambler is looked upon by the members Of
respectable society as a low, good for nothing
outcast. He does nothing but parade the
streets, seeking whom he may seize for his
victim. Gambling originates from loafng
about the streets late at night For instance,
young man who is in the habit of spending
his time in the hotels or saloons, when be ought
to be preparing his mind for future usefulness,
will, undoubtedly, before he is aware of it, as
sociate himself with gang of professed gam
blers. Their first object will be to find out
whether he has any money. After they are
satisfied that he has, they will very politely
invite him to take glass of wine. If he re-
fuses, they will urge him until at last he re-
luctantly consents to take one glass and no
more. After conversing awhile on different
subjects, he is very cordially invited to take
another. The first glass only sharpens the
appetite, and he takes another without any hesi-
tation, and so on until he is intoxicated. Soon
he finds himself in room surrounded by his
old associates he is urged by them to play a
few games for sport, merely to pass away the
time. Excited by wine, and entirely under
their influence, he of course does not hesitate
to comply with their wishes, and very soon
they begin to stake money. He finds himself
lucky at the beginning; but does not continue
long so. He doubles the stakes and loses, and
continues to lose, until at last he stakes his
whole purse and loses all. He tries to borrow,
but none is willing to trust his honesty. He
goes to his room resolved to win what he has
lost, at the next meeting. The habit is form
ed, and thus, before he is prepared to enter
upon the necessary duties of life he is pro-
fessed gambler; and of course ruined man.

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 medical man, it is the duty of every
physician to look at disease as it effects health
and life, and his sole object should be to miti-
gate. as far as lies in his power the bodily
suffering. Human nature at best is bnt frail

Of all the ills that affect man, none are more

frightful as are its ravages upon his constitu-
ton, ending frequently in destruction and a
loathsome grave, it becomes of still greater i'm
portance when it is transmitted to innocent
offspring. Such being the case, how necessary
1T becomes that every one having the least
reason to fear that they have contracted the
disease, should attend to it at once, by consult
ing some physician, whose responsibility and
education enables him to warrant safe, speedy
and permanent cure. In accordance with this
necessity, DIR. YOUNG feels called upon to
state that by long study and extensive prac-
tice, 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, he feels himself better qualified

The Doctor effects cure in receiving cases

him the slightest suspicion, or obige him to

OF opinion that the loss of one ounce of semi
