tary Vice, that dreadful and destructive habit

man, and confidently rely unon his skill as Phy-

ORGANIC WEAKNESS,
! and full Vigor Restored.
This Distressing Afection--whch renders Life
miserable and marriage impossible-is the penalty
paid by the victims of improper ndulgences.
Young persons are too apt to commit excesses

that may ensue. Now, who that understands
the subject will pretend to deny that the power
Of procreaton s lost sooner by those falling into

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 when asleep, great
nervousness, being alarmed at sudden sounds,
bashtulness, with frequent blushing, attended
! sometimes with arrangement OF mind, were cured
| Immediately.
| TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
| DR.. j. addresses all those who have iujurrd
| themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
! habits, which ruin both body and mind, uniting
them for either business, study, society or mar
! riagc.
! InGsE some of the sad and melancholy
effects produced by oarly Labl,s OF youth, viz
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains in the
! Back and Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of Mus

Love of Solitude, Timidity, &c, are some of the
I evils produced.
Judge what is the cause of their declining health,
losing their ygor, becoming, weak, pale, nervous
and emHciated, having singular appearance
about the eyes, cough and symptoms OF consunp-
tion.
YOUNG MEN
Who have injured themselves by certain prac-
tce inaulged in when alone, a habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at school, the
effects of which nightly felt, even when
asleep, and if not cured, renders marriage impos-
sibo, and destroys both mind and body, should
! apply Immediately.
What pity that young man, the hope of his
country, the darling ef his parents, should be
snatchcd from all prospects and enjoyments OF
life, by the consequence of deviating from the
path of nature and indulging in certain secret
habit. such persons MUST before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
reflect that sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites TO promote oOnnubial happi-
ness. Indeed without these, the Journey through
life becomes weary pilgrimage; the prospect
hourly darkcns to the view the mind becomes
shadowed with despair and filled with the mclln-
choly reflection, that the happiness of another
becomes bllghted with our own.
CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and lmprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has imblbed the seeds oil
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
ill-timcd sense of shame, or dread OF discovery,
deters him from applying TO those who, from
education and respectability, can alone beirlend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms OF
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
as liberated sore throat, diseased nose, noctural
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremitles, pro-
crossing with frightful rapdity, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones Of the nose fall
! in, and the victim of this awful disease becomes
a horId object of commiseration, till death puts
IL period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to Z" 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 unskilltul PRE-
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, &C., destroy the constitution, and
incapable of curing, keep the unhappy sufferer
| month aiter month TAKING lhcll noAlous oi IN
furious compounds, and instead of being restored
to renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, in dcs-
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh oyer
his calling disappointment.
: To such, therefore, DR.. JOHNSTON pledges him
self to preserve the most Inyiolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practice and observations in
, the great Hospitals of Europe, and the hrst IL
/, this country, viz: England, France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most GER
tain, speedy and effectual remedy in the world
for all diseases of imprudence.
