IMPORTANT TO MINERS AND TRAVELLERS

NHERE is no malady Of deeper Importance,
l either in medical or moral point of view,
TO which the human family is more liable, than
that arising from impure connections.
AS medical man it is the duty of every Ply.
sician to look at disea-e us it affects health and
life, and his sole object should be to mitigate, as
far as in his power their bodily suffering. HUI
man nature is at best but fral; but all are liable
to misfortune.
OF all ills that affect man, none are more terri
BILE than those Of a. private nature. Dreadful as
it is in the person who contr cts it, trghtiul rs
are its rtvagts upon his constitution, ending tre.
quently in destruction and loathsome grave. it
becomes of still greater importance when it is
transmitted to an Innocent offspring Such being
the case how important it becomes that every one
having the least reason to fear that they have
contracted the disease, should attend to it at once
by consulting some physician, whose respectable
ity and education enables him to warrant safe,
speedy. and permanent cure. In accordance with
This necessity. Dr. Young feels called upon to
state that by loug study and extensive practice,
