The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tions, which fer some unaccountable reason have been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the oi 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.
Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their

CAUTION TO MEDICINE VENDORS AND OTHERS.
NOTICE is hereby given, That by the recent
VERDICT obtained by Messrs MORISON against
certain Impostors for counterfeiting their Medicines, all Per-
sons Selling Medicines as and for MORISON'S PILLS,"
which are in fact mere Spurious Imitations, are liable to
have actions brought against them _for every box sold under
that name, which actions Messrs. Morison will deem it their
duty to inforce in every case that comes to their knowledge.

THE APERITIVE FOUNTAIN enables
persons to preserve a regular action of the bowels. and
to procure, at any moment, the desired relief, simply Nitn a
little water ; by which they not only escape from the evils if
costiveness, but avoid the additional sufferings that are brought
on by a habitual use of opening medicines. The apparatus is
so compact that, with the requisite quantity of liquid, it may
be put into the pocket ; and, unlike the annoying lavement
machine, needs no preparatory fitting together, nor occasions
any embarrassment to the mast infirm or nervous. The SOUND
MAG NIFIEHS, for which Dr. SCOTT ( li.ventor of the
Aperitive Fountain) received thanks from the British Associa-
tion, enable deaf persons to hear a distant speaker, and to
join in conversation by means of the small and almost invisible
CORNETS, without holding anything in the hand. They are
made of several powers, so as to supply each individual with the
exact degree of assistance required. Persons who are pre.
vented from selecting the proper kind, may have it sent, post
free, by addressing particula-s of their deafness (containing an
order for payment) to Messrs. Pine and Roof, superintendents
of Dr. Scott's Repository, 369, Strand, three doors from Exe-
ter- hal!.
