Especial Dispatch from Boston.]
Not only weak and ailing men, but
those in health are indebted to DIR.
Greene, Of "a Temple Place, Boston,
Mass, for his brilliant Boston Music
Hall lectures.
The weak and ailing because he has
| pointed out to them the means Of recov-
ering their health, strength and vigor;
those in health because he has shown the
rocks and quioksands where many a gal
liant life bark has heen wrecked,
| DR.. Greene was listened to with al
most breathless attention by the large
audience of men, who felt that they were
hearing the words of truth and wisdom
| fall from the lips of one as eminent for
his medical skill as he Is distinguished
for his discoveries in the domain of
remedies, and famed for his marvellous
cures. In fact, there Is no physician In
active practice today so well fitted, so
eminently qualified to discuss the con-
ditions brought about by overwork, i'm
prudence and excuses as DR.. Greene.
| He has made the causes Of the loss of VI
tality and vigor in men and the con-
ditions of debility and premature decay
the study OF his life, as those who
listened to him could easily discern.
| DR.. Greene graphically described the
gradual processes by which those in pos
session OF health and vigor reach a con-
dition of debility and nervous prostra-
ton, the successive steps and stages OF
decay. Nothing can be more insidious
than the approach of this foe of human
happiness. the premature decay Of the
physical powers. 1t is the more insidious
from the fact that IL does not always
manifest itself in physical forms, hut
often in mental deterioration beginning
with melancholia and hypochondriasis
There is a loss of spirits, the subject Isl
oyershadowed by gloom, and there Is AMI
ever present apprehension Of impending
disaster. The Intimate connection of the
body and mind is thus shown, the decal
Of the physical powers, finding its fra
manifestation in mental disturbances.
i As the malady makes progress The
physical disorders show themselves.
The body becomes weak. Thsfe IL a
consciousness OF loss of vigor and vitality
that causes the utmost alarm; the leart
becomes affected funotionally, papita-
ton ensues on the least exertion. Dys-
pepsia is q feature which frequently in
PRODUCES itself at this stage, and with
it comos attacks of dizziness accompanied
by drowsinass and M indispositin to
exertion. In time stomach, liver, kid
neye and bowels become functionalf dis
ordered. The subject signs often. there
is difficulty Of breath hing at times pain
in the right or left shoulder or botb and
, sometimes in the Ghost and abdoma.
The ner vousness increases withBvery
stage of progress, and the most 1arful
imaQinings are the result. They pbduce
waketulness at night, or when sleep
comes dreams and visions ensue Com
: plete LIBERALIZATION follows and tough
the victim may bear up bravaly aid use
every effort to conceal from his fisnds
, the fact that he is paying the penaty for
his errors and indiscretiOns 1t is Ill too
apparent to them that there Is souithing
wrong with him. The oomplexi0 has
/; lost its healthful tint, the color nd gone
from the chesks, the skin has become Of
IA dull leaden hue, or taken on asickly
: yellowish tings that 10 unpleasant to
look upon; the eye has baoome dbl and
, lifeless, its brightness and sparkle gone.
the step has lost it spriDgy elasticity and
become feeble and tagging, tho foe has
4 lost it's vivaoity and much of its &pres-
. sion, and tho erect pose of the fom can
no more be maintained save byttrong
physical effort and determinationof the
will, neither of which can be log sus-
8 tanned.
Nature is compelling the viclm to
honor the drafts he has made on her in
) the days of his health and vigor. In the
pride Of his physical power he made an
overestimate Of the strength of hi vital
resources, and now he would eiv{all he
is worth for the privilege OF beginning
all over again. Repentance asloome,
and an overwhelming regret that ie had
r not the common sense and the prudence
to live nationally, and in harmOn} with
the laws of his being and those o soci-
ETY..
D But how much increased ia the alami-
ty If at this time the victim of mpru-
dence and indisoretion is engaged To
marry. With shattered nerves, consti-
tuition d ,yita]ized, prey to MelmohOl1a
and the blues, without hope, cant be con-
template Che obligation to which he has
!, committed himself without dreap I'm
!. posi- BILE. With the consciousness of his
condition the obligation adds to lis mis-
cry, and increases his miDfortunea thou
/ sandfold.
But ali is not lost. There Is still hope
still road to recovery for even he most
desperate CASE. DIR. Greene now turned
to the bright side of the piotre and
! painted that In such glowing cuors that
there was no furtherr reason foIany one
to despair. DR.. Greene has made this
condition of weakness. Of metal and
physical debility the study of his life.
Possessed of brilliant and penetratlvse
mind, an indefatiRa blliry In research
. and investigation, he was SUCCEEDED in
8 discovering the true remedies fr the re.
storation of the weak and suffering
After years OF unweRried Investigator
and experiment he discovered the only
| efficacious medicines that haveever beer
applied successfully to che cure Of this
d weakening and exhausting disease
These wonderful medicines are purely

d been au carefully brought together ant
SO skillfully ombined that the remedle
