riage in its social, moral, and physical relations. To which are added

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 Man-
hood, 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 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
Principles of personal management which cannot bo violated with-
* oat incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue-
used the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
May be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be'removed,
andhowthe evil and its consequences maybe 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.
