The essential object of this treat se is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in 'Sian-
hoo 1, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal i 0
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condiVon, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health. happiness, and privileges o which every human being is
entitled,
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
principles of perscnal management which cannot be violated with-
out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue-
end the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be`removed,
and how the evil and its consequences may be svolded, and, above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a care.
