How many thousands o f persons, both
male and' female, are there who are suffer

sorbed into the system. Look at their pal
lid, emaciated and, disfigured faces and
their broken down constitutions, disquali
lying them for the happiness o f marriage or
the enjoym ent o f life. In this horrid situa
tion thousands suffer until death closes the
scene. Let parents, guardians and friends
attend to. those who are su tiering with any
of these horrible, life-destroying maladies—
see that they are cared for aiid cured before
it is too late. Send them immediately to
Dr. Gibbon, a physician who has made pri
vate diseases his especial study for years,
and who is certain to cure the most invete
rate cases without mercury or any injurious
drugs. It is important to those afflicted, or
those interested in the welfare o f their
friends, to be careful o f the many pretended
doctors who infest all cities, publishing their
skill in curing ail diseases in a few days, im
posing upon the public by using the names
o f eminent physicians from Europe and
other places. Be therefore careful and make
strict inquiry or you may fall iuto the hands
of those charlatans.

Seminal emission—the consequence of
sell abuse. This solitary vice, or depraved
sexual indulgence, is prafcicod by the youth
o f both sexes to an almost unlimited extent,
producing with unerring certainty the fol
lowing train o f m orbid symptoms, unless
combatted by scientific medical measures,
viz: Sallow countenance, dark spots under
the eyes, pains in the head, ringing in the
ears, noise like rustling o f leaves or rattling
o f chariots, uneasiness about the loins, weak
ness o f the limbs, confused vision, blunted
intellect, loss of confidence in approaening
strangers, a dislike to term new acquaintan
ces, a disposition to shun society, loss o.
memory, pimples and various eruptions
about the face, hectic flushes, furred tongue,
.foetid breath, night sweats, monomania and
frequently insanity. If relief be not obtained,
should apply immediately- either in person
or by letter, and have a cure effected by his
new and scientific mode o f treating this dis
ease, which never tails in effecting a quick
and radical cure.
