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 injurr61
themselves by improper indulgence and solit-fy
habits, which ruin both body and mind, u"dtting
them for either business, study, sociee OF mar
riage.
THESE are some of the sad md melancholy
effects produced by early habps Oh youtn, VIZ;
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, rains IN the
Back and Head, Dimness of Sigb;, Loss OF Nus
cuar Power, Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsy,
Nervous Irritability, Derangement OF Digestive
Functions, General Debilip, symptoms of Con-
sumption, &c.
are much to be drcad;d-Loss of Memory, Con-
fusion of Ideas, repression Of Spirits, Evil
Forebodings, Ay,vsion to Society, Self-Distrust,
Love of SOLITUDE, Timidity, &C., are some of the
evils py' duced
THousASps 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 a singular appearance
aboat the eyes, cough and symptoms of consump-
tien.
Who have Injured themselves by certain prac-
tice ndulged In when alone, a habit frequently
learned from evil companions, or at scheol, the
effects of which are nightly felt, even when
asleep, aud If not cured, renders marriage impos
sible, and destroys both mind and body, should
apply Immediately.
What a pity that a young man, the hope of his
country, the darling of 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 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
shadowed with despair and hlled with the melan-
oholy reflection, that the happiness of another
becomes blighted with our own.
A CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and lmprudent votary of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds of
this painful disease, it too often happens that
ill-timed sense OF shame, or dread Of discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and respectability, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms of
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
rs ucerated 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 extremities, pro-
crossing with frightful rapidty, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones OF the nose fall
In, and the victim Of this awful disease becomes
horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to shat Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns"
II Is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of Ignorant or unskillful 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 after month taking their noxious or in
furious compounds, aud instead of being restored
to a renewal of Life Vigor and Happiness, In des-
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
bis CALLING disappointment.
To such, therefore, DR.. JOHNSTON pledges him
self to preserve the most Inviolable Secrecy, and
from his extensive practice aAd observations In
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first In
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.
