CERTIFICATE.
The undersigned desirous of acquainting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly afflicted,
where permanent relief Of their sulIerings may be
obtaned feels 1t 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-
tice of uncomfortable passion in youth depressed in
body and mind, unable to perform even the most tri
fling duty imposed upon the daily avocations of life, l
sought the advice of many physicians who at first
rarded my disease of trhng importance but alas!
after few weeks and in several instances months, Of
their treatment found to my undtterabe horror that
instead of relief my symptoms became more alarming
in their and being told by one 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 the result resolved to place myself Immediately
under his care and by strict obedience to all his d
rectons and advice, my head became clear, my ideas
collected the constant pain in my back and grons,
the weakness of my limbs, the nervous reaction of my
whole body on the slightest alarm excitement the
msanthropy and evil forebodings the sef-dstrus
and want Of confidence in others, the incapabity to
study and want of resolution the frightful exciting
and, at times, pleasurable dreams by night followed
by involuntary discharges have all disappeared and
in fact two months after having consulted the Doc
tor felt as IL inspired by life-ihat life which
a short time ago, l contemplated to end with my own
hand.
with view to guard the unfortunate from falling
into the snares of incompetent quacks, deem tiny
duty to offer this testimony to the merits and skill of
DR.. Cz-pkay, and recommend him to all who may
stand in of medical advice, heing assured by my
own experience that once under his care, radical

Prompted by an honest desire Of my heart, wish
to lay before the public case which deserves a COM

with fit OF Epilepsy, which, owing to my inability TO
meet the expenses consequent upon thorough med

down TO the ground without the slightest warning and
although insensbe to the agOnes, yet despised the
miseries Of my life, and soon learned to look upon
those who would render assistance or shelter me from
danger enemies who sought to prolCng the existence
of my miseries. While in this state, and having, pre-
vious to my aiction, tasted the sweets Of life, once
more was induced to attempt seeking aid of phys-

Czapkay. told him of my circumstances, and Of my
inability to reward him for his services, regardless Of
which, however, he at once undertook my case and,
with the blessing of God once restored to
perfect health. Unable to re ward him for the boon
which enjoy at present. and yet conscious of my in
debtedness, consider it due to myself and all afflicted
to make the case public, in order that those in need
ofmedical advice may fud physician in whom every

1, the the undersigned, having been under the treat
ment of Dr.. l.. Czapkay, although unsolicited feel
called upon to give publicity TO his treatment hoping
that by doing so may be Instrumental In preventing
Others from the fearful suffering and misery which
experienced, and which often results from the per-
nicous practice Of prete tenders. My disease has bee
that of physical and menal debility, which follows in
consequence Of ndiscretions in youth The agones
which endured are, perhaps, unnecessary for me to
detail, they are known to those who have experienced
them Suffice to say, that having called the services
Of Dr. l., j. Czapkay into requistop, all the expecta
tions which may have formed of him were more
than realized. would therefore recommend DR.. Czap-
kay to all who may find themselves afflicted with that
dreadful malady, my object In so doing being sym
pathy for suffering humanity and heartfelt desire Of
relieving them. y. J. DAHBFE, Printer.
