Thankfulness is the Incentive to
Gratitude.

CERTIITc ArE.-The undersigned, desirous Of &C.
quainting those who may be unfortunate enough TO
be similarly afflicted, where permanent relief Of
their suerings may be obtained feels IL his duty TO
thus publclj express his most sincere gratitude to
DR.. l.. j. Czapkay Tor the Permanent recovery Of his
health Borne down by the distressing symptoms
incident TO the vicious practices of uncotruli4ble
passion in youth depressed in body aud mind una.
bic 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 tIifinR impOrtanCe-but alas after a few weeks
and In several Instances, months, az their treatment
found 10 my unutterabe horror, that instead Of re-
lief, the symptoms became more alarming III 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
reRaining my health, strength and energy and a
last resort, and with but faint hope, called upon
DR.. CEapkay, who, after examining my case, pre-
scrbed some medicine which almost instantly reley-
ed me Of the dull pain and dizziness in my head
Encouraged by this result resolved to pace 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 n my
back and grOns, The weakness of my limbs the ner-
vOus reaction Of my whole body on the slightest
alarm or excitement; the misanthropy and evil
forebodings the selfdistrust and Of confidence
in Others the incapaOlty to study and Of res.
olution; the frghtfu exciting, and at times pleas
urable dreams at night followed by involuntary dis.
charges have all disappeared; aud in fact, in two
months after having consulted the Doctor felt il
inspired by new lfe-that HE which. but a short
time ago, contemplated 10 emf hY my hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from falling
Into the snares OF incompetent quacks, deem it nv
duty to offer this testimony TO the merit and skill Of
DR.. CEapkay. and recommend him TO AL who may
stand In need Of medical advice being assured by
my own experience, that under his care, rad
ical and permanent cure will be Effected

to my inability to meet the expenses consequent up
on n thorough medical treatment, and the discour.
agement met with on attempting it, soon became
such (as was then led to believe) as to defy the skill
Of physician. was frequently while in pursuit of
my calling thrown down to the ground without the
slightest warming, and although insensble TO the ag-
outes, yet despised the nIiseres Of my life, and
soon learned to look upon those who would render
assistance or shelter me from danger, enemies who
sought TO prOlODg the existence OF my miseries
While In this state, and having previous TO my afc-
ton tasted the sweets Of life, once more was in.

the case public in order that those In need Of medi
cal advice may find physician in whom every con.
