THE SECRET INFIRNIITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY
Just published, price Is., pest free, in an Eavelope, for 13 stain,A
ELF-PRESERVATION.--A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System,
and on the cure of Nervois and Physical Debility, resulting
from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from youth
to Manhood, witn practical observations on the Physiology of Mar-
riage in its social, moral, and physical relations. To which are added
remarks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden
mysteries "of Life within Life," and its advantages in detecting, by
urinary examination, the cause and effect of every variety of these
complaints, with numerous engravings and cases.
BY SAMUEL L4'MERT, M.D.,_
37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON,
Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary
Member of the London Hosplial Medical Society, Licentiate of

Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
,equences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its
perusal is
!4articularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of. having hazarded
the health, happiness,' and privileges to which every human being is
entitled; •
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
p inciples of personal management which cannot be violated with-
.),it incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc •
teed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be!remoyed,
Ind how the evil and its consequences may he avoided, and, above all,
hat there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannotiaPlAY
a cure.
