WdlkfutItCSS as the IncentsUe 20 Gratitude
CERTIFICATE.
The undersigned, ,desirous of acquainting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly afflicted.
where permanent relief of their sufferings may be
obtained feels it his duty to thus publicly express his
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 the most tri-
fling duty imposed upon the daily avocatons of lifeI
sought the advice Of many physicians who az first
garded my disease as of tTng importance; but, aasl
after few weeks, and in several Instances months of
thertreatment, found to my unutterabe horror that
instead of relief my symptoms became more alarming
in their torture and being told By that my disease
beidg principally confined to the brain, medicines
would be of little consequence, despared Of ever re-
gaining my health, strength and energy and as last
resort, and with but faint hope, called upon DR..
Czapkay, who after eTan42i2g py case, prescribed
some medicine which almost instantly relieved of
the dull pain and dizziness in my head. Encouraged
by the result, resolved to place myself Immediately
under his 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 nervous reaction Of my
whole body the slightest alarm excitement; the
misanthropy and evil forebodings the self-distrust
and want of confidence in others, the incapabilty to
study and want of resolution the frightfu exciting,
| and, at times pleasurabe dreams by night, followed
by involuntary discharges have all disappeared and,
in fact in two months after having consulted the Doc
tor, felt as IL inspired by new lifeihat life which
short time ago, contemplated to end with my own
| hand.
With a view to guard the unfortunate from falling
into the srares Of Incompetent quacks deem it my
duty to offer this testimony to The merits and skill of
Dr. Cz-pkay, and recommend him TO all who may
stand in need of medical advice, being assured by my
own experience that once under his care, a radical

with fit of Epilepsy, which, owing to my inability to

with on attempting it, soon became such (as was then
led to believe as TO defy the skill Of any physician

down to the ground without the slightest warning; and
although insensble to the agonies, yet despised the
miseres 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 existence
of my miseres. While in this state and having pre-
Vous to my alicton tasted the sweets Of life, once
