of whose life has been spent in the hospitals OF

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
DR.. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by improper indtlgencies and solta-
ry habits, which ruin both body and mind, unfit

When the misguided and imprudent votary o.
pleasure finds he has inbibed the seeds of thi:
painful disease, it loo often happens that an i'll
timed sense OF shame CT dread of discovery de
tiers him from applying to those, who, from edt
cation and responsibility, can alone befriend him
He falls into the hands of ignorant and designing
pretenders, who, incapable of curing, fitch his
pecuniary substance, keep him trif1ing month
after month, or as long rs the smallest fee can be
obtained, and with despair leave him with ruined
health to sigh over his CALLING disappointment, OF
by the use of that deadly poison Mercury, hasten
