NEW WORK ON STRICTURE.

Just published, Bvo, in cloth, price 55., by post free, ss. 6d.,
THE TREATMENT of STRICTURES of the
URETHRA. With the Reasons why they so often
appear Incurable.
By F. B. COURTENAY,

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan_ Infirmary for the

Cure.of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a lohg professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded, demonstrating his success and
explaining the muse of it. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to.the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all Who are subject
to stricture.";—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

QELF-PRESERVATION.—A Medical Treatise
ki 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 Phy-
siology of Marriage in its social, moral, and physical rela-
tions. 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 examina-
tion, the cause and effect of everyvariety of these complaints,
with numerous engravings and cases.
BY SAMUEL LAWERT, M.D.,
37, BEDFORD, SQUARE, LONDON,
Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honc-
rary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Li-
centiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &C.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fear-
ful consequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities,
and excesses, which have produced more 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 unman 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 scienee cannot apply
a cure.
