The following are a few of the numerous testimonials this
popular work has received, and which the limits of an adver-
tisement will only allow of being published :
The rage for books in all departments of Science, literature,
and the arts, was, we believe, never so prevalent as at the pre-
sent time. The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we
meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and
even bad hooks. With the force of thin prejudice on our
minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse.
Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re-
quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not
one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the
authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing
effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to
the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To
quote passages from the work in pr&of of our assertion would
be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The
result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been
to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and
skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with
the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur-
nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most
frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England.
Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the
few books now corning before the public on such a subject which
can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at
the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it.
The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu-
able:—Magnct.

The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood,"
has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the
never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it
treats. Th, clear connexion pointed out between the assigned
cause and the effeglits is perceptible to every capacity. We
strongly recommend the work.—Age.
The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some,
nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex •
trumely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been
induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent
friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita •
tinn in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and
edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those
diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set
down by the every-day observer as the result of common
causes, su"h as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe-
rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre-
mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs.
Curtis have shown that Many diseases, such as Pulmonary
Consumption, Epilepsy, &e., hitherto the opp: obria of medi-
cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi-
cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination
as any other class of ffections. We do not think we go too
far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for
prodncing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly
moral a book.—Conservative Journal.

We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &e., to the
careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as %%ell as
physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will he
most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in
need of them.—Statesman.

FOR BILE, INDIGESTION, ANI) DISORDERS OF THE
STOMACH AND LIVER.
DR. A. A. HA. RVEY'S ANTIBILIOUS and
FAMILY APERIENT PILLS hive long bean prescribed
and found eminently useful by one of the most experieLced
member of the ollege of Surgeons, who, from his extensive
practice since he has resided in Bath, and in the East Indies
while Surgeon in the Honourable East India Company's Ser.
vice, has had innumerable instances brought un ler his notice
of the send' atibrded by these Pills. 'I hey have been for many
years known- only to a limited extent, but the increasing de-
mand for them :n other places his induced the Proprietor
to offbr them snore generally to the public. From the want
of a mediiine such as this, irregularities have often Leen neglected
and suffered to increase till disease in its more fearful forms has laid
hold of the vitals, and relief now sought has failed and shorn only
the fay of delay. The Pills are made from the simplest and purest
drugs, and may be taken with safety by the must delicate female ;
are mild in Ow operation, and, taken occasionally, will preserve
the organs of the stomach in per; ect health.
