TIME VERSUS LIFE.
Ai Enigma; attempted to be solved by observation on the
three leading phases of human existence—
YOUTH—MA NHOOD—AGE.
Ile ill-concealed imprudence of Youth, the irresolution of Manhood
as prematurely heralsling the advance of Age—on Indigestion and
Mental Irritation which too surely ripen the seeds of mortality ; also
on the moral c .mmand of the Passions, and on the probable result
when they shall have surrendered to the invasion of error and indis-
cretion, viz. :—Diseases of the Urethra, and on other Disquali-
fications to Marriage.

EXTRACTS FROM THE PUBLIC PRESS.

Sue.—" The work before us gives in simple and perspicuous terms
such directions for the preservation of health as are most likely to be
serviceable to the coma unity."

BELL'S MESSpGER.--“ This is a useful medical work; the best
portion appe•irs to us to be that which treats of the obstruction to
natural . functions in the later portion of life. We recommend the
work to our readers as at once scientific and practical."
SUNDAY. TIM ES.--4. Dr. Crucefix has spoken in the I•nguage of a
scholar, a gent'eman, and a friend. The following passage should
be remembered by all who wish for the general good of mankind :
Morality suffers sadly by concealment of what, if known and un-
derstood, would operate as a guard against crime.'"
SATIRIST.—'4 The large amount of useful information. devoid of
the incumbrance of pedantic mystification, favourably distinguishes
this work from most treatises of the same description."
Ace ♦rD Artoacs.—" It is a work that must he read with interest
by both sexes, and particularly those who are suffering from indi-
gestion and mental irritation. We can honestly recommend the
perusal of it to our readers."
ERA.—" It Is written In a plain and easy style, from which may
be obtained many valuable hints o►► the method of retaining the in.
estimable blessing—Health."
