A Good Idea.
Sonio one suggests "let there be a
study exercise." But a teacher rises
to remark tbat bis pupils are at least
supposed to be studying all the time
between recitations. Well and good,
but a part of each day should be spent
by the teacher in helping the pupils
to study. When a class has finished
reciting they are dismissed to their
Beats with a portion of the text book
marked off as the dark ground they
are to conquer before the next recita
tion. Instead of this plan, the teacher
should review the advance lesson with
the class, showing tbem how to study,
which are the chief points on which
to concentrate their thoughts and
which portions of the text books are
less important and merely explana
tory. With a little judicious assist
ance from the teacher the child will
accomplish more in ten minutes than
he could alone in forty minutes. Ex.

A. S. FISHBLATT, M. D.,
SPECIAL ATTENTION GIVEN TO DISEASES OF
THE THROAT AND LUNGS, CATARRH KIDNEY
AND BLADDER, AND WELL AS ALL CHRONIC AND NER
VOUS DISEASES,.
DR. FISHBLATT
nas discovered the greatest cure in the world for weakness of the back aud limb,
involuntary discharges, impoteucy, general debility, nervousness, languor, confus
ion of ideas, palpitation f the heart, timidity, trembling, dimness of sight or giddi
ness, diseases of the bead, throat, nose or skin, affections of the liver, lungs, stom
ach or bowels those terrible disorders arising from solitary habits ot votith. and
secret practices more fatal to the victims than the sous ot Syrens to the mariner of
Ulysses, blighting their most radiant hopes or anticipations, rendering marriage
impossible.
Those tbat are suffering from the evil practices, which destroy their mental and
physical systems causing
NERVOUS DEBILITY,
the symptoms of which are a dull, distressed mind, which uutits them from perform
ing their business and social duties, makes happy marriage impossible, distres-es
the action of the heart, causing flushes of heat, depression of spirits, evil forebod
ings, cowardice, fears, dreams, restless nights, dizziness, forgetfulness, unnatural
discharges, pain in the back and hips, short breathing, melancholy, tire easily of
company and have preference to be alone, feeling as tired in the morning as when
retiring, seminal weakness, lost manhood, white bone deposit in the urine, nervous
ness, confusion of thought, trembling, watery and weak eyes, dyspepsia, constipa
tion, paleness, pain and weakness in the limbs, etc., should consult me immediately
and be restored to perfect health.
YOUNG MEN
Who haye become victims of solitary vice, that dreadful and destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave thousands of young men of exalted
talent and brilliant intellect who might otherwise entrance listening se nator.s with
the thunders of their eloquence or wake to ccstacy the living lyre, may call with
full confidence.
MAKRIAGE.
Married persons or young men contemplating marriage be aware of physical
weakness, loss or procreaitve power, impoiency, or any oineruisquauncation speed
ily reuevea. lie woo places nimseit unuer
connae in
nhvalniin
his honor as a gentleman, and
ORGANAL WEAKNESS
Immediately cured and full vigor restored. This distressing affliction which ren
ders life a burden and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by the victim for
improper indulgence. Young people are apt to commit excesses from not bein;
aware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understand
this subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those falling into improper
habits than by prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleasure of healthy off
springs, the most serious and destructive symptoms of both mind and body arise.
The system becomes deranged, the physical and mental functions weaken. Loss of
procreative powers, nervous irritability, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, indi
gestion, constitutional debility, wasting of the frame, cough, consumption and death.
A CURE WARRANTED.
Persons ruined in health by unlearned pretenders who keep them trifling month
after month taking poisonous and injurious compounds, should apply immediately.
DR. FISHBLATT
Graduate of one of the most eminent colleges of the United States, has effected some
of the most astonishing cures that were ever known; many troubled with riuging in
the ears and head when asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at certain sounds,
with frequent blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of the mind were
cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. F. addresses all those who have injured themselves by improper indulgence
aid solitary habits which ruin both mind and body, unfitting them for business,
study, society or marriage.
These are some of the sad. melancholy effects produced by the early habits n f
youth, viz: Weakness of the back and limbs, pains in the head and dimness of
sight, loss of muscular power, palpitation or the heart, dyspepsia, nervous irritabil
ity, derangement of digestive functions, debility, consumption, etc.
