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 for some unaccountable reason have laeen either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the 0: 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 eases of young persons of both sexes, who perish
of what is called pulmonary consumption, li,art disease, tabes,
&c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in
certain destructive habits, practised by youth much 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
intn 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
attt.ck any of his young charges, what the real cause of such
aVack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in
its incipient state.

hers be directed as to the nature of those habits, to which

youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point outt he
disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if
not relinquished.
