no matter of how long standing.
If you have contracted the terrible disease which,
when once seated in the system, will surely go down
lrom one generation to another, undermining the
constitution and sapping the very vital fluids of life,
do not trust yourself in the hands of Quacks, who
start up every day in a eity like this, and till the
papers with glaring falsehoods too well calculated to
deceive the young and tho>e not acquainted with
their tricks. Yon cannot be too careful in the se
lection of a remedy in these cases.
THE FLUID EXTRACT BUCHU has been pro
nounced by eminent Physicians THE GREATEST
K4£Ai£DY EVER KXO H',V. It is a medicine
perT&-Ay)pl*asi*f>t in its taste and very innocent in its
action, and yet *o thorough that it annihilates every
particle of the rank and poisonous virus of this dread
ful disease; and, unlike other remedies, it does not
dry up the disea-e 111 the blood.
CONSTITUTIONAL DEBILITY, brought on by
self-abuse, a most terrible disease, which has brought
thousands® f the human race to untimely graves,
thus bla-A'ng the brilliant hopes of parents, and
blighting in the bud the glorious ambition of many a
noble youth, can be cured by this infallible remedy.
And as a medicine which must benefit everybody,
lrom the simply delicate to the confined and despair
ing invalid, no equal is to be found, acting both as a
cure and preventative.

lead bis pupils to make a practical application of
their acquisitions. To load the mind wtthannumer
