reflect that a sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites to promote connubial happi-
mess. Indeed without these, the journey through
life becomes weary pilgrimage; the prospect

shadowed with despair and filled with the melan-
choly reflection, that the happiness OF another

,- A CERTAIN DISEASE,
When the misguided aud imprudent vGiary Of
pleasure finds that he has imbibed the seeds OF
this painful disease, It too often happens that AZ
iIl-timcd sense of shame, or dread Of discovery,
deters him from applying to those who, from
education and respcctabiiity, can aloHe befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms OF
this horrid disease make their appearance, such
as ulcessted sO<e throat, diseased nose, noctural
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones aud arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with frghtful rapidity, till at last the
palate Of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
! in, and the victim of this awful disease beconcs
horrid object Of commiseration, till death puts
a period to his dreadful suffering, by sending
him to :" that Undiscovered Country from whence
| no traveller returns"
| II is IA 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 nOxi0as or Ia.
furious compounds, and instead of being restored
to renewal of Life vigor and Happiness, in des-
pair leave him with ruined Health to sigh over
his calling disappointment.
To saeh, therefore, DIR. JOHNSON pledges HIM
self TO preserve the most Inyioabe Secrecy, and
! from his extensive practice and observations in
| the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first In
this country, viz: ERgland, France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled 10 offer the most GER
tain, speedy and effoctual remedy IN the world
| for all diseases of imprudepee. ...
