What pity that young man, the nope OF

snatched from all prospects and enJoyments OF
life by the consequence of devlatlng from tho

DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votAry
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 discoV-
cry deters him from applying. to those WI
from education and respectablllty can atone

SYMPTOMS of this horrld disease make t1elr APP

dimness of sight, deafness, nodes on the shlh

till at last the palate Of the mouth or ILL., ines
of the nose fall in, and the victim of this aWlu
disease becomes horrid object of commissera
ton. till death puts period TO his dreadful sui
ferings, by sending him So That Undiscovered
Country from whence no traveller err returns.
Itis MELANCHOLY FACT that thou
eonds fall victims to this terrible disease, owing
TO the eunskiIfulness of ignorant pretenders. who,
by the use of that DEADLY POISON, NY K.

residue Of life miserable.
