CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY
! Young men beware of the pernicious indul-
gence and almost fatal injury you inhict upon
your custitutious, by evil examples and the
morbid influence Of the passions.
| How MANY young persons do we daily behold,
whose COMMENTARIES and debilitated constitu-

and devastating vice.
1t could be shown how attenuation of the
| frame ,pa lpitation ofthe heart, arrangement OF
the nervous system, cough, indigestion and a
| train Of syn ptom' indicative oil consumption,
are often ascribed o trcng causes, when in re-
atty, they are the consequence Of an aliurin G
and pernicious practice, alike destructive TO the
mind nd body.
! You who have brought tLis Attic ton upon
! yourselves, why embrace the secret to your
! hearts and vainly attempt to cure yourselves,
| intead Of making immediate application to a
| skilful physician, who, in a short time, would
restore you to perfect health, and save you from
exposure which the fatal IONS ences rem der il

Ey DR.. Smith gives his special attention to
the treattnen; OF this destructive malady. Pa
! tents can be cured at home by addres ing a
letter to DR.. Smith describing symptoms, and
receive IN adi:ine securely packed from observa'

are put up to sell but no to cure, and often do
more harm than good, therefore avoid them.
