resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro-
duced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema-
ture decay at all stages 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-
ages, 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 be removed,
and how the evil and its coluequene 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 extetsive practice in the treatment of these delicate com-
plaints, and is the only legally qualified rhysician 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. he 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
t empirics, who, with their pirated
care of unqualified and Ignorant
publications, assumed foreign names and titles, and pretennded vthoseirtwho
ues
of their patent nostrums, have inflicted serious injury o
have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.
At home for consultation daily from Eleven till Two, and from
Six till Eight. All letters must contain the fee of it., and advice and
medicines can be forwarded to any initials or address.
It is desirable that patients wishing to consult Dr. LA
ISIERT
should first obtain a copy of his work on
