'1 he essential object of this treatise is to point cut 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 dis ase known to modern pathologists. Its perusi lis
particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their phys cal c-ndition, end who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.

It is absolutely necessary that ail men should know that there are
ptinciples of personal management which cannot be violated with-
out incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc-
ceed the heyday of Inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penaltirs
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 therels scarcely any degree of pb3 Well infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot auply a cure.
