One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes ern-
:Atter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
at caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret nn-
cosiprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form on item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or mlstbrtune. Reader, It
,hese surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life, " pub, in 2 vols., Is.
such (by Dost, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
relined, c.r prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
:hem. They are not intended certainly for mere idle curiosity, but
:or the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom

they arc offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
,egether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
title publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post 18. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They aro not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life,who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on tha "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
Sherwood, 23, Paternorter-row ; Carvalho, 147, Fleet street ; Maim,
39, Cornhill ; Nelson, 457, West Strand ; or direct (by post or other-
wise) from the author (who may be conferred with personally,
