the fearful con.
The essential object of this treatise is to potout
tieeuenees resulting from curtain habits, irregularities, and exceesee
Man-
,
which have proaucel more misery in Youth, degradation in
hoed, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any
ether class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
partleularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazardedi
and privileges to which every human being is
the health, hapPiness,
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary thatall men should know, that there arc
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
cony be snitigatel, how the sting of their bitterness may be remove,
and how the evil and its coWequences may be avoided, and above all,
that there is scarcely any desTee of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot ap
anply axtensive cure.
The Author has for a series of years been engaged in e
practice in +he treatment of those delicate complaints, which have
unfortunately been too generally confided to the care of ignorant
empirics, who inflict great injury on those who are induced to place
faith in their pretensions.
NERVOUS DEBILITY may be had, price 2s, of Messrs. Piper,
