DR.. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits, which ruin both body and mind, uniting
them for either business, study, society or mar
rlage .,
These are some Of the sad and melancholy ef-
fects produced by the early habits of youth, viz:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, Pains IN the
er, Palpituton of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous
Irritability, Derangement of the Digestive Func-
tions, General Debility, SYMPTOMS of Consump-
ton, Sc.
MENrALLY.-T,e fearful effects on the mind
are much to be dreaded. Loss Of Memory, Con-
fusion of Ideas, Depression OF Spirits, Evil Fore
bodings Aversion to Society, Self Distrust, Love
of Solitude, Tmidity, &c, are some OF the evils
produced. ....r. .....:....
Thousands of persons of al ages can now judge
what is the cause of their declining health, losing
their vigor, becoming weak, pale, nervous and
emaciatcd, having singular appearance about
the eyes, cough and symptoms of Consumption.
YOUNG MEN .-'
Who have injured themselves by certain prao-
ticc already described q habit frequently learn
ed from evil companions or at school, the ELECTS
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
medaLely. r...
What y 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 devatng from the
path Of nature, and lndulging IN pernlcious
habits. Such persons must, before comtemplat-
ing. ,,.,n,,cr
Rcaec, thu, a sound mind and body are the
mos. necessary requisites TO promote connubial
h,ppincss Indeed without these the journey
through life becomes weary pilgrimage, the
prospcct hourly dnrkcns to the view, the mind
becomes shadowcd with despair, and filled with
the melancholy reflection that the happiness of
an other is blighted with our own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudent votaryo
Measure finds that he has imbibed the seeds
This pantul disease, il too often happens that an
NJ of shame or Tread OF discovery dc
ters him from applying to those ~ho from edu
cation and responsibility, can alone befrend him,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms Of this
horrId disease makes their appearance, such ~
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head ard limbs dimness of sight,
Deafness nodes on the shin bones and arms,
blotchcs on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with frightful rapidity, till At last the
pa late Of the mouth or the bones of the nose
fall in, and the victim Of this awful disease be-
comes n horrid object Of conmisserstion till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending hin to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns.
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims To this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands Of ignorant or unskliul PKE-
TENDERS, who, by the use OF that deadly
Poison Mercury, &c, destroy the constitution,
nnd incapable Of curing, keep tho unhappy suf
ferer month after month taking their n9xious or
INJURIOUS compounds, and instead Of being re
stored to renewal Of Life, Vigof and Happnes,
in despair leaves him with ruined Health to sigh
over his CALLING disappointment
