far us in his power. their bodily suffering. H.

frequently in destruction and loathsomc grave
it becomes OF still greater Importance when it
is transmitted to innocent offspring. Such being
the case, how important it becomes that every

at once by consulting some physician, whose
respec liability and education enables him to war
rant a safe, speedy, and permanent cure. In ar-
cordancc with this necessity. DR.. Young feels
called upon to state that by long study and eX-
tcnsiye practice, he has become perfect master
of all those diseases which come under the de-
nomination Of vcncrcal. and having paid more at

"a HEADACHE is the favorite sign by which ma

Diseases of the heart very frequently attended

Constipation or Costiyeness.

No one of the "many ills flesh is heir to" prev
aent, so little understood, and ,uch neglected
Costiveness. Often originating in carelessness or
sedentary habits; it is regarded as slight disorder
OF too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in
reality it is the precursor and companion of ma
ny OF the most fatal and dangerous diseases and
less early eradcated it will bring the sufferer
untimely grave. Among the lighter evils of which
Costiveness Is the usual attendant, Headache,
Cholic Rheumatism, Foul Breath Piles and others of
like nature, while long train of frightful diseases
such as Malignant Fevers, Assesses, Dysentery, D-
arrheea, Dyspepsia, Apoplexy Epilepsy, Paralysis,
Hysteria, Hypohondriasis, Melancholy and Insanity,
first indicate their presence the system by this
farming symptom. Not unfrequently the diseases
named originate in Constipation, but take on indie
pendent existence unless the cause is eradicated in
early stage. From all these considerations it follows
that the disorder should receive immediate attention
whenever it occurs, and person should neglect to
get box of Cephalc Pills the FIRST appearance OF
the complaint, as their timely will expel the in
sidious approaches of disease and destroy this dan
gerous foe to human life
