l t ant the fearful con-
The essential object of this treatise is to Poll- -- and excesses,
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities,
perhaps, any
which have proauced snore misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than,
erasai is
other class of disease known to modern
pathologists. Its D
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret
Perusal
of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having
hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being Is
entitled.
' It is absolutely necessary thatall 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 fora series of years been engaged in an extensive
practice in the treatment of these delicate complaints, which have
unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
emeidcs, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
