TRIBUTE TO MERITED NORTH.

THE ingrattude of man TO his fellow man is so
l. 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 phan:
thropic devotion to tife alleviaton of the ills OF
frail mortality. Empircsm floods the column6
of our press with fraudulent and fictitious letters.
singing peans to the worth OF their egotisticaY
charlatanism. Below we append letter from d
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 skilfnl physician has restored him TO his for
mer health. Relieved from his terrible situatoni
and impelled by gratitude, he makes known his
case and remedial agent, and his statement is au-
thenticated by notary public. The demands Of
society imperiously command its publicity and II
is given more to warn the unwary than to sound
the praises of physician of whom scores Of like
cases can be cited:
CERTIFICATE.
The undersigned, desirous 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. 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 triting duty inn
posed upon the daily avocatons of life, sought
the advice Of many physicians, who at first regard
ed my disease as of trfing Importance, but. alas
after few weeks, and in several instances
months. of their treatment, found to my uput-
terable horror that instead of relief the symptoms
became more alarming in their torture, and being
finally told by one that the disease being ptinci.
pally confined to the brain. medicines would be Of
little consequence, l despaired of ever regaining
my health, strength and energy and as q last
resort, and without faint hope called upon DR..
Czapkay, who, after examining my case, pre-
scribed 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
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 my
whole system on the slightest alarm or excitement
the misanthtopy and evil forboding, the selfdiss
trust and want of confidence in Others the ncas
pablity to study and want of resolution, the
frghtful, exciting, and at times pleasurabls
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 a
short time ago, contemplated to end by my own
hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from faTf-
ing into the snares of incompetent quacks, deem
it 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 uns
der his care, a radical and permanent cnre will
be effected. b r. FILLMORE
