Advice to Those in Search Of Health.
By DIR. Y. CLARENCE PRICE.

The peculiar character of diseases in the va
rious localities through which we have pas
sed could not fail to strike an attentive OBJ
server. In each and all of them we find, usu-
ally, morbid and unnatural excitation of
the excreting organs, the skin, bowels and
kidneys prevailing to great extent. Irreg-
ular dlaresls, prnfusc morbid perspiration, or
no persplratlon at all, and q loose or consti-
pated state of the bowels, together with q
torpid or inactive condition of the kidneys
The liver, the most important organ of the
body, was III all these cases, deeply implica-
ted, giving rise to all the distressing symp-
toms which usually attend upon an affec-
ton of this viscus, misleading the physician
employed, and disappointing the hopes o..
the patient that relief would follow speci
fc action of medicine on the part diseased.
By improper medicine we have found every
variety OF complaint shutup in the system,
and all the various avenues of Nature, by
which disease is expelled, closed against it's
exit as completely as if it had been designed
to blockade the system to enable the destruc-
tive virus to finish its work of demolition
Our first object is in all these cases to raise
the seige at once, and by applying such rene
dies as will reach the cause of the disease, re.
move not only the symptoms, but radically
extirpate the disease itself
Another class Of diseases, and these are ex-
tremely numerous, Pulmonary affections.
The worst character of this disease is scat.
tered all over the country. as is attested by
the vast number of pale, hectic or emaciated
counten0nces to be met with, and the almost
unceasinS recurrence of dry, hacking coughs
We have had in many cases, to restore the
equilibrium of the circulating fluids, to ex-
pei the destructive poisons given at one pc
Rod and another, ard commence the difficult
but extremely necessary work deepening the
closed avenues through which the effects and
deleterious matter that continued to obstruct
them may be removed. Thisw have amply
and satisfactorily succeeded in doing. In no
case, however, must it be understood that
we propose to put new lungs into the thorax
where they were destroyed, for let human in
genuity and skill be ever SO great, it is not
the power of science to supply SO vital a
deficiency. We have succeeded in relieving
have laid the foundation for many important
cures. The circulating fluids only, which
carry health and strength to all parts of the
body, are, luckily for humanity. capable of
bearing along with Them, in their course
through the system, the means of purifca-
! ton.
This is the plan adopted by Nature to heal
herself, and there is little doubt that, no mat
ter what the disease may be, it may effectu-
ally be reached relieved and cured by proper
correcting medicines. By system adopted by
US, we compel the blood, which in Pulmofia-
ry Consumption is charging the interior or
gans of the body, to leave them in a necessa-
ny measure, and circulate on the surface and
then by purifying the uhoze system from the
morbid accumulations which fill the circula-
ting vessels, effect perfect and complete
cure Of the monster disease. We never in
any case, attempt to doctor symptoms Cor it
is plain to common sense that such course
is not only injudicious, but is productive Of
the worst effects. Those who pa2linte only,
will never succeed in curing chronic diseases.
The causes originating it must first be re-

threatens to fall in ruin in some unguarded
moment, strengthened hy all the skill and
art to be found in the resources of medicine.
The innumerable instances Of bitter disap-
pointment, of deferred hopes to which pa
tients suffering under chronic diseases are
consigned, have arisen, in some degree as
much from his own inattention as from those
yvh haU rlO hive
Whenever the harmony of the system has
been overthrow by disease, it must be re-
established by proper medical treatment, or
continual discord is the result. Unless there
is some specific affinity between tAe disease
and the medicine used. no result of benefi-
cial nature will take place.
A long acquaintance with medicine, and
close application for many years to the histo-
ry and operation of diseases of long standing,
have enabled us to treat successfully every
variety of chronic disease. We reject all
poisonous and depletive agents, whether
mineral or vegetable. Of the utility Of our
remedies thousands can testify, and in no
case can they be used without benefit. Our
object is to invigorate rather than reduce,
build up rather than destroy.
Most of the offices we now have, we have
visited every few weeks for the last ten years,
for consultation with patients laboring un-
der different forms of lingering disease. The
success attending my efforts. the continuance
of my visits, should convince those waver-
ing in opinion regarding the efficacy of my
system of treating these ailments.
shall be for consultation upon all diseases
Of the lungs, liver, heart. throat, stomach,
nerves and blood, termed chronic, on my
next visit to Kenosha, at Hallidays Hotel,
during Thursday the 22d of April.
