GIVES HOPE TO THOSE AFFLICTED.

THE CAUSE of so many men becoming physi-
cally and mentally unable to perform their func
tions Is to be found in nervous debility, result
ing from abuse of natures laws.
TIE EFFECT is apparent and easily recog-
nizcd in these poor, miserable creatures-living
wrecks of manhood-scouTges TO themselves and
family--daily reeking in the throes of bodily paia
and mental distress. Unfit for mental physi
cal vocation, they become morose, sullen, and
melancholy; there is enjoyment for them;
their mind becomes diseased, coniuring up yis-
ions and halluCinations.
THE CURE-No physician on earth has had
experience or more success in the of
wrecked manhood than Dr. Clemens. His record
of permanent cures, his contributions to medical
science, and his discoveries of scientific treat
ments which have cured thousands have placed
him far in advance OF any practitioner OF today.
