TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. J. addresses sll those who have injured
themselves by improper indulgence and solitary
habits, which ruin both body and mind, uRltting

Head, Dimness of Sight, Loss of muscular Pow
or. Palpitaton Of the Heart Dyspepsia, Nervous
Irritability Derangcment Of the Digestive tunc-

YOUNG MEN

cd from evil companions or at school, the effects
of which are nightly felt, even when asleep, and
if not cured, readers marriage impossible, and

What pity that young man, tho hope OF
his country the pride of his parents should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyment of
path of nature, and indulging in pernicious
habits. Such persons must, before comtemplat-
ing. "
Reflect that sound mind and body are tn
most necessary requisites To promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without these toe journey
through life becomes a weary pilgrimage, the
prospect hourly darkens to the view, the mind
becomes shudowcd with despair, and filed With
the melancholy reflection that the happiness of
another is blghted with our own.
DISEASES OF IMPRUDENCE.
When the misguided and imprudcnt votary of
pleasure finds that he has lmD!bed the scels OF
ihis painful disease it too often happens that an
ill-tncd sense of shame or dread OF discovery dc.
tcrs him from applying to those who, from eiu
cation and responsibility, can alone Delriend him,
DELAYING till the constitutional symptoms of this
horrld disease makes their appearance, such rs
liberated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal
unns 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 rspidity, till at last the
1alatc of the mouth or the bones of the nose
iall in, and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes horrid object of commisseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns"
Il is n melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through falling
into the hands of Ignorant or unsklltul PRE-
