The Work which is now presented to the public is the result
of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec-
tio.s, which fer some unaccountable reason have keen either
altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in-
difference, by the ci 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 et a PA-
RENT, a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN.
Messrs. CIJRTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their
residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho, from Ten till Three, and
Five ill Fight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re-
quested to be as minnte 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
,ezimunication must be accompanied by the " usual Consulta-
tion Fee of II.," without which no notice whatever can be
taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most invinloblo
secrecy may be relied on.
