This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to
the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its
first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged
by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general
principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in-
teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the
result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class
of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been
either altogether overlooked, or treated almost
T with
prove rb indifferal
-
ence, by the ordinary medical practioner. he i
and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who
traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en-
couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the
regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects
sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the
authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex-
clusively to a certain class of diseases ; of the necessity of so
doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact h
in
ar is ine
-
vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, whic
from certain secret practices, can only be acquired by an ex-
clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical
practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, ',bergs'
affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of
consumption, which, however, when traced to their source,
are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves
that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more
applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in

The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining
away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse-
q.uence of some disease, which, for want of careful investiga-
tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con-
sumption, will, or perusing this work, be astonished to find,
that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both
se:es, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption,
heart disease, tapes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive 'habits practised by
youth much more frequentlhan it is at all suspected.
The PRECEPTOR, a y tlso, 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 con-
cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the

f
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 causes 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 two-fold 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 &o-
estrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not
relinquished.
