rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Li-
dentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear-
ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities,
, which have produced e misery in Youth,
degradation in Manhood, and premature decay at all stages
of, life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to
modern pathologists. Its perusal is particularly recommended
to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condi-
tion, and who are conscious of having hazarded the health,
happiness, and privileges to which every human being is en-
titled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that
there are principles of personal management which cannot be
violated without incurring grievous penalties, and when
wisdom and regret succeed 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 avoided, 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 cure.
