(f)N TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRH(EA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from Debility of the
generative System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD

"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
eLl contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
t he Informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his cower to correct."
—London Medical Gazette. May 30, 1851. The tribe of `Quiet Syma-
tlllsers,'and Medical Friends,'are mercilessly exposed ; andif this book
could find its way into the hands of those who gaffer from the com-
plaint of which it tregts, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less Importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
rnuch money—. —This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhtea, and to place the treat-
flint upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medi,al Circular, Juno 16. 1852.

MEDICAL ADVICE ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF
YOUTH AND MATURITY.

DR. SAMUEL LA'MERT, 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, and Matriculated Member of the University of

Edinburgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical
Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
14 AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on
the various disorders of the nervous and generative system,
resulting from Juvenile irregularities and excesses, which -have pro-
duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema-
ture decay at all stases of life, than perhaps any other class of dis-
eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience
in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist-
ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in
existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous
Debility, various forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri-
agei, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their
endless modifications owe their almost entire origin.

It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
Principles of personal management which cannot be violated without
Incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret succeed
the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties
May be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may he removed,
and how the evil and its con,equene es may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure
DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged
In an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com-
plaints, and is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless
of the taunts and envy of the hypocritical and mock-modest, has had
the confidence, through the medium of the public press, to direct
attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is
tree. In selecting this department of practice, lie has been amply
rewarded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the
treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the
care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated
Publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues
of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury on those who
have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.
At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from
Rix till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of 11., and advice and
Medicines can he forwarded to any initials or address.
