Marriage requires the fulfflment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source In every instance disclosed, in hew many could
it be traced to physical diequalifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, en
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should '
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
In early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by hi:, possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes-
Bional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
naantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

THE NATURAL and UNNATURAL STYLE.
If you wish to excel, study nature ; this is particularly appli-
cable in making ornamental hair, as unless the previous way of wear-
ing it is imitated, so complete a transformation takes place, that as
Byron says—" A mother would not know her son." ROSS and SONS
having succeeded beyond all calculation in producing perfect imita-
tions of nature, have given the name • f the Invisible Ventilating
Head of Hair to their productions, and are enabled to offer them to
both Ladies and Gentlemen, from one guinea and s. half upwards.
They likewise present an infallible mode of measuring, viz.:—The
round of the head ; from ear to ear across the rise of the head ; from
forehead to pole ; the measure to be taken with a piece of tape, and a
small lock of hair enclosed, which will be closely matched, both
in colour and quality.
