dement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or

approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease,
which, for want of 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 per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart disease, tubes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
limit more frequently than it is at all suspected.
