DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE
Wheu misguided and ir.prudent votary Of
nleasur nds that he has lmblbed the seeds OF
tbispa .ul disease, it too often happens that an
ilI-tfme. ense Of shame or dread Of discovery de-
tiers him fromapplylng to those VINO, from educa-
ton and responsibility, can alone oetrlend MN,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms Oh this
ulcorated sore throat diseased nose, nocturnal
nains in the head and limbs, dimnoss of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head face and extremities pro-
crossing with frightful rspidiy, till at last the
oalate of the mouth or the bones of the
pc. nose fall in and the victim of this awful disease
becomes horrid object of commisseration till
death puts a period to his dreadful suffering by
sanding him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"
It is melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of ignorant or unskIlful PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use Of that deadly
Poison. Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution
and Yi: incapable OF curing g. keep the unhappy suf'
fer, ferer month after month taking their noxious
INJURIOUS @ compounds, and instead Of being re-
stored to renewal Of Life, Vigorand Happiness
N despair leave him with ruined Health to sigh
