themselves by improper indulgence and sol!-
tary habits, which ruin both body and mind,

DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent 7ot&ry
of pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds
Of this painful disease it too often happens that
an ill-timed sense of shame or dread of di8coY-
cry deters him from applying TO those, who
from education and respectablityr can alone
befriend him, delaying till the constitutional
symptoms of this hOrrld disease make their ap-
pearance, such as liberated sore throat, diseased
nose, nocturnal pains II the head and limbs,
dimness of sight deafness, nodes on the shin
bones and arms blotches On the head, face and
extremities progressing with frightful rapidity
till at last the palate Of the mouth or the bones
of the nose fall in, and the victim of this awful
disease becomes horrid object of cOmmissera-
ton, till death puts period to his dreadful suf
ferincs, by sending him to that Undiscovered
Country from whence no traveller returns"
It is MELANCHOLY FACT that thou
sands fall victims to this terrible disease, owing
to the unskilfulness of Ignorant pretenders, who,
bv the use of that DEADLY POISON, MP &
curry, ruin the constitution and make the
residue Of life miserable.
