DIR. JOHNSTON,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduated from one of the most eminent
Colleges in the United States, and the greater
part of whose ife has been spent in the hospitals
of London, Pris, Philadelphia and elsewhere,
has effected some of the most astonishing cures
that were ever known many troubled with ring
Ing ia the head and ears when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds.
DaSHIuiuSss, VIII frequent DusnlnS, attended
sometimes with arrangement of mind were cured
Immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
DR.. j. addresses all those who have injurrd
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits. which ruin both body and mind, uniting
them for either business, study, society or mar
riage.
THESE arc some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth. viz:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs Pains in the
ireNN Of Ilk,
cuar Power, Papitation of the Heart, Dyspcpsy,
Nervous Irritablity, Dcrangement of Digestive
Functions, General Debility, symptoms Of Con-
sumption, &c.
MENTALLY--The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreaded--Loss of Memory, Con.
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Self-DstrUst,
Love of Solitude, Timidity, &C., are some of the
evils produced.
THOUSANDS of persons of all ages car now
judge what is the cause of their declining aealth,
losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
and emaciated, having n singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and symptoms ofconsump-
tion.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by a certain prac-
tice inaulged in when alone, habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at school, the
effects of which are nightly felt, even when
asleep aud If not cured, renders marriage impos-
sible, and destroys both mind and body, should
apply Immediately.
What pity that young man, the hope of his
country, the darling of his parents, should be
snatchc0 from all prospects and enjoyments OF
life, by the consequence of deviating from the
path of nature and indulgng in certain secret
habit. Such persons MUST, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that 4 sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubal happi-
ness. Indeed without these, the journey through
life becomes weary pilgrimage the prospect
hourly darkcns to the view the mind becomes
shadowed with despair and filled with the melan-
choly reflection, that the happiness of another
becomes blghted with our own.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and Imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has mbbcd the seeds Of
this painful disease, 1t too often happens that an
ill-timed sense of shame, or dread of discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and responsibility, can alone beirend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms of
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, noctuml
pains in the head and limbs, dimncss of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and eXtremitles, pro-
crossing 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
a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to "that Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns"
1t is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims 10 tnls telGlDlc disease, through lalllng
Into the hands of Ignorant or unsklful PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution, and
incapable of curing, keep the unhappy sufferer
month after month taking their noxious or in
furious compounds, and Instead of being restored
to a renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, in des-
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
his calling disappointment.
To such, therefore, DR., JOHNSTON pledges him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practice and observations in
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first In
this country, viZ England, France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most GER
tain, speedy and effectual remedy in the world
for all diseases of imprudencc.
