Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University orEdih.
burgh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., 85e.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesles,
which have proauced more misery in Youth, dettgraand,apticornhainpsll,laann;
hood, and premature decay at all stages of Life,
Other class of disease know ,t to modern pathologists. its perusal is
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their Physical condition, and who are conscious of baying hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men ehould 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
stay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed,
and how the evil and its consecitiences maybe 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 the treatment of these delicate compla'nts, which have
unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
empirics, who inflict great injury on then who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
