The Farent, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast
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 nice-tenths of the cases of young per-
sons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary con-
sumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the solo and exclusive origin has
been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth
much more frequently than it is at all suspected.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions. in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness. be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how malty could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments.erati Excesseso

abused. the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subject.
This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
trent their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plyi% to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets
that accurate discrimination n ascertaining the causes of
sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riablysympathy with the
disease,
'
characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by his possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his prefes-
spursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended, Dr.
Li
Mal ER has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas
certify. and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
suarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.
