AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR,
with REMARKS on the VARIOUS INCIDENTS
which have occurred during FORTY-FIVE YEARS of his
LIFE, and a FULL DESCRIPTION of his MODE of
TREATING DISEASES, with REASONS EXPLANA-
TORY of HIS SYSTEM.
By SAMUEL WESTCOTT TILKE,
Medical Herbalist, Author of " Random Reflections on In-
digestion, Gout, Tenia Capitis, Scarlet Fever," &c. &c.
" Mr. Tilke is one of those individuals who, born with a
wooden spoon in their mouths, have, by the alchemy of thrift and
industry, converted it into silver. He began the world as a jour-
neyman baker, but every intermission from the labour of the knead.
ing trough, was devoted to the pursuit of medical science. Any
man who makes such unceasing efforts as ho has done to alley ia'e
the sufferings of humanity, is entitled to honourable mention."—
Times, Nov. 3.
" In this volume we have the autobiographical memoir of a man,
whose career in fife has been a chequered one, hut who, by sheer
dint of perseverance, am: showing a gallant front to misfortune,
had the satisfaction of seeing all his efforts crowned with success.
Tl.e Memoir is an interesting one, as showing what may be accom
!dished by energy and good conduct; and it is written in a cheerful
and benevolent strain. As a Medical Herbalist, Mr. Tithe has
effected a variety of surprising cures in obstinate cases of gout,
rheumatism, and indigestion. His mode of treating some of these
diseases is fully described in the course of his Memoir, and he has
added reasons explanatory of his system, so that he who runs may
read."—The Sun, Nov. 5.

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 been either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the el 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 Isis 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, hurt 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
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 to check the evil in
its incipient state.

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 outL

disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if
not relinquished.
