Thousands of persons of all ages can now judge
what is the cause of their declining health losing
their vgor, becoming weak, pale, nervous and
emaciated, having singular appearance ABOUT
the eyes, cough and symptoms of Consumption.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured Themselves by certain prac-
tice, already described, habit frequently learn
ed from evil companions or ut school, the enects
of which are nightly felt even when asleep, and
if not cured, renders marriage impossible and
destroys both mind and body, should apply i'm
mediately.
What pity that young man, the hope of
his country the pride of his parents, should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyment OF
life by the consequence Of deviating from the
path of nature, and indulgng in pernicious
habits. Such persons must, before comtemplat-
ing.
Reflect that sound mind and body are the
most necessary requisites TO promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without these IT. journey
through life becomes weary pllgrmagc, the
prospect hourly darkens to the view the mind
becomes shadowed wi despair, and filled with
the melancholy reflection that tue happiness OF
another is blighLed with our own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-tlmed sense OF shame or dread of discovery de-
tiers him from applying to those who, from edu-
cation and respectabllty, can alone bcfriend him,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms OF this
horrld 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,
crossing with frlghtful rapidity, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose
| fall in and the victim Of this awful disease be.
comes horrid object of commlsseraton til!
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending hi to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"
1t is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through faliing
| into the hands of ignorant or uns iiful PKE-
TENDERS who BY the use of that deadly
| Poison, Mercury. &C., destroy the constitution,
and incapable Of curing, keep the unhappy sut:
ferer month after month taking tneIr nq1!ous or
stored to a renewal Of Life, Vigor and Happiness
over bis CALLING disappointment.
