CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY AND SEMI
NAL WEAKNESS.

DR YOUNG addresses those who have injured
~ themselves by improper indu gences in that
secret and solitary habit which ruins the body
and the mind uniting them for either business
and society The following are some of the sud
and melancholy effects produced by early habits
Of youth, viz: Weakness of the back and limbs.
pain in the head. dimness Of sight. loss OF muscu-
lar power, palpitation of the heart. dyspepsia,
nervousness. irritabiliy. arrangement OF the di-
gestive functions. general debility, symptoms OF
consumption &c
MENTAlLY.-Thc fearful effects upon the mind
are more to be dreaded. Loss of memory. con
fusion of ideas, depression of spirits evil fore
boiling. aversion of society. sclf-d>tust love OF
St litude etc. are most OF the evils produced.
All persons who are afflicted with any OF the
above symptoms should not fail to call on Dr.
Young. and he at once restored to perfect health
Let no false delicacy prevent you. but apply i'm,
mcdiatey and save yourself from the dreadful
and awful consequences of this terrible malady.

Ha-The question is often asked-"Why is it
that Dr. J. G. Young is so successful. while other
advertising Physicians are failing from day to
duy?' The answer must be or should be, plainly
"pP"rent to all: it is. that he understands his
increases. his knowledge extends. So close has
been his application to his unprecedented prlc-
tice that he is perfect master OF his profession,
and can insure all relief from their troubc and
while others are daily sinking into the oblivion
from which they were never fitted to be delivered
his course is onward and upward placing him ut
the head OF his arduous profession. SO great has
been his increase of business that he has been
obliged to associate himself with two other physl-
clans both Of extended knowledge and practice.
We would advise all afflicted to call upon him in
preference to any other Physician We are in
formed that he treats entirely on the vegetable
system. and will always warrant perfect cure.
His office is 75l Clay street opposite the upper
corner Of the Plaza.

definite policy from the Executive that that
policy may go before our army, that ever.v

know as he goes into battle, that he hiss the as
surance of his country to stand by him in an
