R. HOWARD,surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-

FICIAL TEETH Axed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication ; and that Mr.
Howard's improvement may be within the reach of the most econo-
mical, ho has fixed the charges at the lowest scale possible. De-

'VIE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY
Just published, twice Is., post free, in an r7.nvelope, for 13 stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION.—A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System,
• and on the cure of Nervoes and Physical Debility, resulting
from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from youth
to Manhood, with practical observations on the Physiology of
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
urinaryexamination, the cause and effect of every variety of these
Complaints, with numerous engravings and cases.
••BY SAMUEL LVMERT, M.D.,
37, BEDFORD SQUARE, LONDON,
Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary
• Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of
Apothecaries !Tali, London, &c., &c.
• The essential object of this treatise 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
Utttled.
' It le absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
r rineiples of .personal management which cannot be violated with-
, . sit incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc-
ceed 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 conseguences maybe avoided, and, above all,
thatthereis scarcely any degVee of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
