Throat, Nose or Skin, Affections of Liver, Lungs,
Stomach or Bowels-these terrible Disorders

secret and solitary practices more fatal to their

of antcipatons, rendering marriage, &C., impos-
sible.
yoUNG MEN
especially, who have become the victims of Soil
tary Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to untimely grave
thousands of young men of the most exalted
talents and brilliant intellect, who might other

Impotcncy, Loss of Power, Immediately Cured
and full Vigor Restored.
This Distressing Atfecton-which renders Life
miserable and marriage impossible-is the penalty
paid by the victims of improper indulgences.
Young persons are too apt to commit eXccsses
from not being aware of the dreadful consequences
that may ensue. Now, who that understands
the subject will pretend to deny that the power
of procreaton is lost sooner by those falling into
improper habits than by the prudent Besides

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 In the head and ears when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds,
bashfulness, with frequent blushing, 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 are some OF the sad and melancholy
effects produced by early habits of youth, viz {:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs. Pains in the
Back and Head, Dimuess OF Sight, Loss of Mus
cular Power, Palptation of the Heart, Dyspepsy,
Nervous Irritabilty, Derangement OF Digestive
Functions, General Debility, Symptoms of Con-
sumption, &c.
MESTALLV-The fearful effects on the mind
are much to be drcaded-Loss of Memory, Con-
fusion of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil
Forebodings, Aversion to Society, Self-Distrust,
Love of Solitude, Timidity, &C., arc some of the
evils produced.
THOUSANDS OF persons of all ages can now
judge what is the cause of their declining health,
losing their vigor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
and emaciated, having singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and symptoms OF fconsump-
tlou.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by a certain prac-
tice INDUCED in when alone, n habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or ut school, the
effects of which are nightly felt, even when
asleep, and if not cured, renders marriage impos-
sible, and destroys both mind and body, should
apply Immediately.
What u pity that young man, the hope of his
country, the darling of his parents, should be
snatche& from all prospects and cnioyments OF
life, by the consequence of deyiating from the
path Of nature and indulging in a certain secret
habit. Such persons MUST, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that a sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi,
ness. Indeed without these, the journey through
life becomes weary pilgrimage; the prospect
hourly darkcns TO the view the mind becomes
Swallowed with despair and filled with the melan
choly reflection, that the happiness Of another
becomes blighted with our own.
n CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and mprudent votary Of
| pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds o.
this painful disease, it too often happens that NJ
il-tined sense OF shame, or dread of discovery
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and rcspcctability, can alone bcirient
! him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms o
/ this horrd disease make their appearance, sucl
as liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nOctura
! pains in the head aud limbs, dimness of sight
| deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms
4 blotches on the head, face and eXtremities, pro
crossing with frightful rapidity, till at last th
| palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fal
| in, and the victim of this awful disease becomes
! n horrid object of commseration, till death put
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
| him to that Undiscovered Country from whenc
! no traveller returns"
/ AZ Is q melancholy lact lnat thousands III
victims to this terrible disease, through fallln.
into the hands of Ignorant or unskilful PRE-
! TENDERS, who, by the use Of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution, AM
incapable of curing, keep the unhappy sutfere
month after month taking their nOXious or in
furious compounds, and instead of being restores
to n renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, in des
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh owe
his CALLING disappointment.
To such, therefore, DR.. JOHNSTON pledges him
| self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, an
from his extensive practice and observations il
the great Hospitals of Europe, aud the first /
this country, viz: England, France, Philadelphi
and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most Gel
tain, speedy and eifectual remedy in the worl
for all diseases of imprudence.
