ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMA.TORRHCEA,
with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the
Real Sufferers under this disease, and Correcting of wide-spread
Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.

",Dr. Ptckford is known to English readers by his frequent practi.
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first

time, he informs as, that he has addressed himself to the non-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any
other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his p )wer to cor-
rect."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of • Quiet Sympathisers,'
and 'Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could and its way into the hands of those who stiffer from the com-
plaint of which it treats, we aro satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermator•hoea, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."
