this ninful disease it too often happens that an
ill-tlincd sense of shame dread Of discovery de-
ters him from applying to those who, from cdu-
cation and res probability, cun alone befriend him,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms of the
horrid disease makes their appearance, such rs
ulccrated sore throat, diseased nose nocturnal
mains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight
deafness, ds:sir nodes on tho shin bones and arms
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with fyghttul rspdty, till at last the
pplate Of the mouth or tho bones of the. nose
fill in, and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes a horrd object of commsseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering by
sending hin to that undiscovered country from
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 unskiltul PRE-
