eal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his

w/A.e oromised in a former number that we should recur to this
4144, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
trstll great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying

Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
mmull find its way into the hands of those who saffer fr the com-
b:lnt of which it treats, we are satisfied that many h indreds would

ni",Mrical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
':
Upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therethre,
rely to do much good."—Medical Circular, Juno 16, 1852.
