CERTIFICATE
The undersigned, desrous of acquanting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly afflicted,
where a permanent relief Of their sufferings may be
obtained feels it his duty to thus publicly express his
most sincere gratitude to DR.. l.. J. Czapkay for the
permanent recovery of his health. Borne down by
The distressing symptoms incident to the vicious prac
tce of uncomfortable passion in youth depressed in
bodv and mind, unable to perform even the most tr-
ding duty imposed upon the daily avocatons of life
sought the advice of many physicians, who at first
garded my disease as of trling Importance; but aas
after few weeks and in several instances months Of
their treatment found to my unu tterable horror that
instead of relief my symptoms became alarming
in their torture and, being told by that my disease
being principally confined to the brain, medicines
would be of little consequence, despaired of ever re-
gaining my health strength and energy and, as 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 di
rectons and advice, my head became clear, my ideas
collected the constant pain in my back and groins,
the weakness of my limbs, the reaction of my
misanthropy and evil forebodngs the self-distrust
and want of confidence in others the incapablty to
study, and want of resolution; the frighul, exciting,
and at all times peasurable dreams at night, followed
by involuntary discharges have all disappeared and
in fact in months after having consulted the Doc
tor, felt as inspired by new fe-that life which,
but short time ago, contemplated to end by my
own hand
With view to guard theunfortunate from falling in
to the snares ofiEcompeent quacks, deem it my du-
y to offer this testimony to the merits and skill of DR.,
Czapkay, ard recommend him to all who may stand in
need of medical advice, being assured by my own ex-
perience, that once nnder his care radical aud per
manent cure will be effected. Is. Il. FILLMORE.

CARp.-Prompted by an honest desire of my heart
l wish to lay before the public which deserves
commendation, not only act of scientific skill
bnt that of humanity also About two years ago sud-
denly, and from causes unknown to me, was seized
with a fit of EPILEPSY, which, owing to my inability
to meet the expenses consequentupon thorough med
cal treatment, and the encouragement which met
with attempting it, soon became such as was then
led to believe) as to defy the skill of a physician /
was frequently, while in pursuit of my calling thrown
down to the ground without the slightest warning and
although nsensibe to the agonies, yet despised the
miseries of my life, and soon learned to look upon
those who would render assistance shelter me from
danger, as enemies who sought to proong the exist
ence of my miseres.
While in this state and having previous to nv aic-
ton tasted the sweets offe, once more was induced
to attempt seeking aid Of physician, and by recom-
mendaton, called upon DR. L, j. Czapkay told him of
my circumstances, and ofmy inability to reward him
for his services-regardless Of which, however he at
undertook my case, and with the blessing of God
was once more restored to peri, ct health Unable to
reward him for the boon which enjoy at present and
yet conscious of my indebtedness considerit due to
myself and all afflicted, to make the public, in
der that those in need Of medical advice may find
physician in whom every confidence can be placed.
