TUE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YouTa AND MATURITY
Just published, prim is., post free, in an Envelope, for 13 stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION.--A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System
and on the cure of Nervous and Physical Debility, resulting
from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from youth
to Manhood, with practical observations on the Physiology of Mar-
siege 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
°°Mpluints, with numerous engravings and case..

Member of the London Hospii,al :Medical Society, Licentiate of

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 aro conscious of having hazarded
the health. happiness, and privileges lo which every human being is
Milled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
Principles of personal management which cannot be violated with-
out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret sue
teed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
may ho 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.
