The undersigned, desrous Of acquainting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly afflicted
where permanent relief Of their su1erings may be
obtained, feels il his duty to publicly express his sin
gratitude to DR.. l.. J. Czapkay, for the perma
nent recovery Of his health Borne down by the dis
tressng symptoms incident 10 the vicious practices Of
uncomfortable passions in youth, depressed in body
and mind unable to perfom even the most trihing
duty imposed upon the daily avocations Of life,
sought the advice of many physicians who at first re-
gsrded my disease as OF tring Importance but alas
alter few weeks, ahd In several instances months Of
their treatment, found, TO my unutterable horror,
that instead OF relief the symptoms became more
alarming in their torture, and being finally told by
that the disease, being principally confined TO the
brain, medicines would be Of little consequence,
despared Of regaining my health, strength and
hope called upon DR.. Czapkay, who, after examining
my case, prescribed some medicine which almost In
stantly 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 his directions and advice my head
became clear, my ideas collected the constant pains
in my back and grOins, the weakness Of my limbs,
the nervous reaction Of my whole body on the slight
est alarm or excitement, the misanthropy and evil
foTebodings, the sedistrust and want OF confidence
in Others the ncapabity to study and want Of
luton, the fightful the exciting and at times the
pleasurable dreams at night followed by involuntary
discharges have all disappeared, and, In fact in two
months after consulting the Doctor, felt II in
spred by new life, that life which, but short time
ago contemplated 10 end by my own hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from falling
into the snare Of Incompetent quacks, deem II my
duty TO offer this testimony 10 the merit and skill Of
DR.. Czapkay, and recommend him to all who may
stand In need Of medical advice being assured by my
own experience that, once under his care q radical
and permanent cure will be effected.

in 1854. We have had that great privilege
