DIR. YOUNG addresses those who are suffering
under the affection of private diseases, whether
arising from impure connection or the terrible vice
of selEabuse. Dcvoting his entire time to that
particular branch of the profession, he feels war
ranted in GUARANTEEING A CURE IN ALL
CASES, whether of long standing or recently con-
tracted, entirely removing the dregs Of disease
from the system, and makinga PERrEcr and PER-
MANENT CURE.
He would call the attention of the afflicted to
the fact of his long-standing and well-earned rep.
~utatiOn, furnishing sufficient assurance of his skill
and success.
Upwards of five thousand cases have been dis
charged cured in the year ending July LIST, 1860,
showing a record surprising any hospital in the
United States.
CONSULTATION, by letter or otherwise, FREE.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY AND SEMINAL
WEAKNESS.-Dr. Young addresses those who
have injured themselves by private and improper
indulgence in that secret and solitary habit which
ruins the body and mind, uniting them either for
business or society, with the view to impress upon
their minds, before it is too late, the absolute ne
cessity of skillful medical treatment, and by a
direct course Of reasoning to show that although
we may not be ungrateful for the health given us,
that it cannot be sp0rted or trif1ed with without
loss; and when once engendered cannot be regain
cd by mere abstinence from folly, or urgent and
strong display Of courage.
1t may not be generally understood by the great
majority Of sufferers from mental depressiOns. that
these dull and heavy sensations experienced in the
head and about the chest, accompanied by feelings
of anxiety and foreboding, arise from a ~disorgan.
ization of the important functions of the body
Such, however, is the fact, and in latter years to
such an extent has this been carried that our In
sane Asylums are becoming filled with patients
who owe to this cause alone their suffering. The
study and practice Of years has shown conclusi'ely
that to the weakness of the genital organs, super
induced far too often by self-abuse, which has be-
come so apparent in the face and where once our
fathers stood giants IN Muscular force, the men OF
to-day are dwarfs in comparison.
The symptoms Of the disease may be faint to-day,
but SO surely rs you experience that weakness in
the back and limbs, dimness of sight, nervousness,
arrangement of the digestive functions, and gen.
eral debility, so surely will follow the narrowing
mental prostration too awful to contemplate, and
which will end only as the last breath comes strug-
Cling, gasping from the breast Of the expiring vic.
tim. There is something noble in dying when the
good fight has been fought, but what man can
view a grave filled by one whose life dribbled out
in pollution, without a feeling Of disgust.
Do not hesitate, hoping that time will eradicate
what it only strengthens, but call at once ut my
office, with the full assurance Of a speedy and per-
mnnent cure. Let no sense of false shame deter
you, but save yourself from the awful effects OF
this dread disorder, and regain the full strength OF
your manhood.
