health. Borne down by the distressing symptoms
incident to the vicious practices of unconrolablc
passion in youth. depressed in body and mind, un-
able 10 perform even The most tri1ing duty i'm
posed by the daily avocations of life, sought
the advice of many physicians, who at first regar-
ded my disease as of trtng Importance; but,
alas, after few weeks and in several instances,
months, of their treatment, found. to my unut-
terable horror, that. instead of relief, my symp-
toms became more alarming in their torture; and
being told by one that my disease being prnci-
pally confined to the brain, medicine would be of
little consequence. | despaired Of ever re-gainng
my health strength and energy; and, as II last re-
sort, and with but u faint hope. ] call upon Dr.
CZapkay, who after examining my case. prescrb-
ed some medicine, which almost instantly reiev
ed me Of the dull pain and dizziness in my head.
Encouraged by the re. ult resolved to place my
self under his care, and, by strict obedience to
all his directions and advice, my head lecame
clear, my ideas collected, the constant pain in
my back and groins, the weakness OF my limbs
the nervous reaction of my whole body on the
slightest alarm or excitement, the misanthropy
and evil tOrebodings the selfdstrust and want of
confidence in others, the incapability TO study,
and want of resolution, the frightiu, exciting,
and at times, pleasurable dreams by night, fol-
lowed by involuntary discharges, have all disap-
peared, and, in fact. in two months after having
consulted the Doctor, l felt as if inspired by
new life that life which, short time ago, CON
tempated to end with my own hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from fall
ing into the snares of incompetent quacks, deem
it my duty to offer this testimony to the merits
and skill of DR.. Czapkay, and recommend him to
all who may stand in need OF medical advice be-
ing assured y my own experience that, once un.
del his care radical and permanent cure will
be effected IT.. ST. B. +. FILLMORE.

Card.
Prompted by an honest desire of my heart. l
wish to lay before the public u case which de-
serves a commendaton, not only as an act of sci
entiic skill, but that of humanity also. About
two years ago | suddenly, and from causes un
known to me, was seized with fit of Epilepsy
which owing to my inability to meet the eXpen-
ses consequent upon thorough medical treat
ment, and the discOuragment which met with
on attempting it, soon became such (us was then
led to believe) to defy the skill of any physi-
clan. was frequently while in pursuit of my
calling, thlown down to the ground without the
slightest warning; and, although insensible to
the agones, yet despised the miseries of my
life, as learned to look upon those who
would render assistance or shelter me from dan
ger as enemies who sought to proong the exist
ence OF my miseries While in this state, and
having, previous to my affliction, tasted the
sweets Of life, | once more was induced to at
tempt seeking aid of a physician and by recon-
incubation, called upon Dr. l.. D. Czapkay. L
told him Of my circumstances and of my inabil-
ity to reward him for his services, regardless of
MhdsS hd With h1HJH'tti tie tieisng Of Cod was once more
restored to perfect health. Unable to reward
him for the boon which enjoy at present, and
yet conscious of my Indebtedness | consider it
due to myself and all afflicted, to make the case
public, in order that those in need Of medical ad
vice may find physician in whom every conf
dence can be placed.

l, the Undersigned. having been under the
treatment of DR.. l.. J Czapkay, although unsolic-
tied, feel called upon to give publicity to the
efficacy of his treatment, hoping that by doin' so
may be instrumental in preventing others from
the fearful suffering and mis- ry which | expert
enced and which so often result from the PERM
cous practice of pretenders. My disease has
been that of physical a ID mental debility, which
follows in consequence of indiscretions in youth.
The agonies which | endured are, perhaps, un-
necessary for me to detail, they are known to
those who have experienced them Suffice 1T to
say. that having called the services of DR.. l.. }.
Czapkay into requistion all the expectations
VIII ch may have formed of him were more than
realized. | would therefore recommend DR..
Czapkay to all who may find themselves afflicted
with that dreadful malady my object in so doing
being sympathy for suffering humanity, and
heartfelt desire of relieving them.
