The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful eon-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
~ -hich have prociuced more misery Youth,i degradation in l'Aan-
bood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is

It 13 absolutely necessary thetall 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 be removed,
and how the evil and its consequences 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.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in *he treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
fortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
'u
ompiries, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
