The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tiL,s, which for some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the c dinary practitioner. To enter into the
details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to
mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical,
which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN.
The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away,
and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of
some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its
real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption,
will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine-
tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish
of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes,
&c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in
certain destructive habits, practised by youth much mere fre-
quently than is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temporarily, at least
the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this
work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and
detecting the too often concealed prxctiag se often introduced
into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his
pupils are sure to be compromised, unless tie' evil be checked
in proper time. lie will here find a clue to guide him through
the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth and a standard
whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to
attack any of his young charges, what the rea cause of such
attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in

its incipient state.
The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character, is at once
concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will
here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to which
youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the
disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if
not relinquished.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No, 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as miunte as possible in the detail of their cases,
—as to the duration of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge-
neral habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the
communication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
tion Fee of 1/.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

H E ECCENTRIC SNUFF-TAKER.
Should trade be dull and times go rough,
Oh, give me then a pinch of snuff ;
Give me my box a pinch to take,
E'en when I'm pleased for pleasure's sake.
When fortune's frowns disturb my mind,
And friends appear to grow unkind ;
Relief I seek within my box,
My system is quite orthon'ox.
When a true friend perchance I meet,
I cheerfully his person greet,
A hearty " How do you do ?" takes place,
When, lo ! my snuff-box shows its face
My pulveriforous box supplies
A recipe for weakly eyes ;
That man mast be a silly goose
Whir thoughtlessly condemns its use.
If my proboscis cotald but speak,
''would often say—the dose repeat ;
Each grateful sneeze at.d tittilation
Excites a frequent iteration.
Then here's my glass in which I toast,
Success to that which I love most ;
Reader, I pray don't think me bluff—
Mark well the hitt Gar Nisi-or:F.'s Snuff.
