The Work which is now resented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either

altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the o' 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 aro sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits,
would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We hare
no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of
society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe-
ther wo 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 te 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 muck more 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 practices so often introduced
into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his
pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked
in proper time. He 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 real cause of such
attack may be, and thus he will be enabled te 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,' Ne.. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five till Eight i■ the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minute 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 most be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
tion Fee of I!.," without whch no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable
secrecy may be relied on.

WILKINSON'S- ANTI - CORROSION
PAINT.

REMOVED from 63, Upper Thames-street, to
54, WATLING-STREET, near Queen-street, Cheapside.
J. R. WILKINSON particularly recommends his Paint to
the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, wbe wish to paint their
houses of Roman cement, Aucco, or brick walls, as a preven-
tive to damp or sea spray in exposed situations; it will not
blister or peel off as common paint. On tiling, to represent
slating, iron hurdles, roofs, conservatories, hot-houses, fences,
farm, or any out-buildings, it will last four times as long as
common paint. It is so simple in its use, that any labourer
can lay it on. To ship-owners for their decks, bottoms of ves-
sels, dc., it will be shown, as well as to the public, to be supe-
rior to any paint in use, by testimonials of its lasting fourteen
years on wood and houses, twenty years on iron (see the South-
wark•bridge). The public are particularly guarded in giving
their orders for Wilkinson's Anti-Corrosion Paint, that no
ether colour may be imposed upon them for his. A liberal
allowance to the trade.

TURES of the URETHRA, SYPHILIS, GONOR-

CERTAIN 'GROWTH of HAIR.—A Gen-
tleman jut returned from a Tour in the East, and a
long residence in Constantinople, offers to the Public a CER-
TAIN REMEDY for the CURE or PREVENTION of
BALDNESS. The TURKISH HAIR BALSAM ;s the
preparation of OTHMAN MUSTAPH4, Silrgenn-Barber to
Abdul,Medjid, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, by whom the
Advertisers are authorised to snake known this valuable. disi,
covery. The miraculous properties of Ai Tisl.4ivilAtB BAL-
SAM are unrivalled; the trial of a single bottle will:remove
the doubts of the most sceptical. In the course of a few days
the young Hair may be clipped with fine FPf 0";.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.
MESSRS. SLOAN and CO., Members of
the Royal College of Surgeons. 4, ARGYLL-PLACE,
REGENT-STREET, and 28, IRONMONGER-LANE,
CHEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight .'Clock in the
Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
Syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob-
served, The treatment they pursue will not subject any patient
to confinement or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten (lays, or if slight or
recent in two or three, with Out the indiscriminate use of mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrhcea, and Strictures of the Urethra, u.;,happily so preys.-
ent, are reated upon those unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public pa.
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain. _

Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, however distant, will be corresponded with until
recovered.
