be similarly afflicted where u permanent relief Of
their suerings mny be obtained feels It his duty
thus publicly express hs most sincere gratitude to
DR.. l.. j. Csapkny Tor the permanent recovery OF his
health. borne dOWn BY the Distressing symptoms
incident to the vicious practices Of uncomfortable
passion in youth; depressed in body and tnii.d uua-
bile to perform even the most trifing duty imposed
on the daily avocations Of life sought the advice
OF many physicians, who at first regarded my disease
Of trifliug importance-but alas after u Few weeks
and In several instances months, Of their treatment
found to my unutterAble horror that instead OF re-
lief, the symptoms became more alarming In their
torture; and. being told BY that my disease be-
ing principally confined to the brain, medicine
would be OF little consequence, deSpaired OF ever
reHAining my health, strength and energy !; and .
last resort, and With but faint hope, called upon
DR.. CEapEAy, who, after examining my case, pre-.
scrbcd some medicine which almost Instantly reiev-
ed me Of the dull pain and dizziness In my head
Encouraged by this result, resolved to place myself
Immediately under his care and by strict obedience
to all his directions and advice my head became
clear my ideas collected, the constant pain Ia my
back and grOins The weakness Of my limbs, the ner-
vous reaction OF my whole body on the slightest
alarm or excitement; the misanthropy and evil
forebodngs; the selfdi>trust and 81 confidence
in others; the iacapaOty to study and want OF res.
olutlon; the frightful, exciting. and at times pleas
urnble dreams at night followed by involuntary dis.
charges, have all disappeared; and In fact, In two
months after having consulted the Doctor felt If
inspired by new life--that lie which. but u short
time ago, contemplated To end by my own hand
With svis~ To HSSard the W0f.ttuoBte (rous t>lltpg
into the snares Of incompetent quacks, deem It my
duty to offer this testimony to the merit aod skin Of
DR. Cxapkay, and recommend him TO all who nav
stand in need Of medical advice, being assured by
my own experience, that once under his care, rad
ical and permanent cure will be effected.
