DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds o
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-tined sense of shame or dread OF discoyeryde
ters him from applying to those who from edu
cation and responsibility, can alone befrend him,
DELAYING till the constitutional symptoms of this
horrid disease makes their appearance, such as
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremtles' pro-
crossing with frghtful rapidity, till at last the
5palate 5 Of the mouth or the bones of the nose
kfall in and the victim of this awful disease be,
comes a horrid object of commisse5aton till
death puts period to his dreadful suaerlng ; ~
whence no traveller returns"
1t is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease through falling
into the hands of ignorant or unsklIiul PkE-
TENDERS who, by the use of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, Sc, destroy the constitution,
and incapable Of curing, keep the unhappy suf
ferer month after month taking their noxious or
Injurious compounds and instead Of being re-
stored to renewal of Life, Vigor and Happiness.
