During twenty years of practice, have rescued
from the jaws of Death many thousands, whe,
in the last stages of the above meRtisned dis
eases had been given up to die by their physi-
clans, which warrants me in promising to the
afflicted, who may place themselves under my
care, a perfect and most speedy cure. Secret
Diseases are the greatest enemies to health, as
they are the first cause of Consumption, Scrof-
ula, and many other diseases, and should be
terror to the human family, As q permanent
cure is scarcely ever effected, majority of the
cases falling into the hands of incompetent
persons, who not only fail to cure the diseases
but ruin the constitution, filing the system
with mercury, which, with the disease, has

But should the disease and the treatment
not cause death speedily and the victim mar
ries, the disease is entailed upon the children,
who are born with feeble constitutions, and
the current of life corrupted by 4 virus which
betrays itself in Scrctula letter, Ulcers, Erup-
tions an other affections of the skin, Eyes,
Throat and Lungs, entailing upon them brief
existence of suffering and consigning them to
an early grave.
SELF ABUSE is another formidable enemy
to health, for nothing else in The dread cata--
logue of human diseases causes so destructive
a drain upon the system, drawing its thousands
of victims through few years of suffering
down to an untimely grave, 1t destroys the
Nervous system, rapidly wastes away the en-
ergies Of life, causes mental derangement'
prevents the proper development OF the system,
disqualiies for marriage, society, business
and all earthly happiness, and leaYeS the SUI,
ferer wrecked in body and mind, predlspoSeo
to consumption and a train Of evils more 10 DC
dreaded than death itself. With the falieSt
confidence I assure the unfortunate Ucums OF
Sclf-Abuse that a permanent and spesdy cure
can be affected, and with the abandonment OF
ruinous practices my patients can re TeStercu
to robust vigorous health.
The afflicted are cautioned against The use
of Patent Medicines, for there are So many
ingenious Snares in the columns of the pubic
prints to catch and rob the unwary, sufferers
that millions have their constitutions rlined
by the vile compounds Of quack doctlrs, OF
the equally poisonous nostrums vended as
.'Patert Medicines" have carefully analysed
many of the so called Patent Medicines aHo,
find that nearly all of them contain Corrosive
Sublimate, which is one of the strongest pre-
parations of mercury and deadly poison,
which instead Of curing the disease disables
the system for life.
Three-fourths Of the patent nostrums now,
in use are put up by unprincipled and ignorant
persons, who dc not understand even the all
phabet of the nateria medicd, and are equally
as destitute of any knowledge OF the human
system, having one object only IN view, ana
that to make money regardless OF consequea'
ceS.

females treated on principles established by
