DISEASE OF IMPRUDENCE.
Wheu e misguided and ir2rudent votary Of
nlnasrr | nds that he has imbbed the seeds of
ihisn ain al disease it too often happens that an
iII-tnes ense Of shame or dread of discovery do
tcrs him from applying to those who, from educa-
lion and respectability, can alone betrlend him,
DELAYING tilf the constitutional symptoms of this
h0rrid disease makes their appearance, such aa
liberated sore throat diseased nose nocturnal
pairs in the head and limbs dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with frighttul rspidity, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the
nose fall in and the victim of this awful disease
becomes horrd object Of commisseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns
1t is melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands Of ignorant or unskiltul PRE-
TENDERS, who by the use of that deadly
Poison, Mercury, s. C., destroy the constitution
and incapable OF curing, keep the unhappy sui.
INJURIOUS compounds, and instead of being re
storcd to \ renewal of Life, Vigor and Happiness
IN DESPAIR leave him with ruined Health to sigh
over his calling disappointment
