" Domus et platens uior."—Hoa.
Thy house, and (in the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
HAPPINESS " the gay to-morrow of the
mind" is ensured by marriage; " the strictest tie
of psrpetual friendship," is a gift from Heaven, cement-
ing pleasure with reason, by which, says Johnson, "we
approach in some degree of association with celestial in-
telligence."
Previous, however, to entering into the hallowed ob.
ligation of marriage, it becomes an impressive duty, not
only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser
nature from those impurities which the freedom of unre.
striced plcacure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect
of such attention, are attributable many of those hapless in-
stances which, while they tithe the commiseration of the
beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self-re-
proach.

Luxurious habits will effeminise the body—a residence
in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more espe-
cially does the premature infatuation of youth,too frequently
compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from
whence the agonised sufferer more than doubt■ the chance
of relief. To all such then, we address ourselves, offering
hope—energy—muscular strength—felicity ; nor will our
advances appear questionable, sanctioned as they are by the
multiplied proofs of twenty years' successful experience.
The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed
by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the
nuptial wreath--for the female habit is often constitutionally
weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy im-
proved into functional power.
In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every
relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability
to cure speedily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to
expel the unfeeling empyric from the position so presump.
tuously taken up, we deviate from general principles with
less hesitation ; and confident in our own honourable in-
tegrity as Members of the College of Surgeons, we refer
the buffering community of either Sex (especially those en.
tering into matrimonial life) at once to our house, where
daily attendance is given for personal consultation ; and
Liters from the country are immediately answered; these
trust contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, de.
scribing minutely the case, which can be forwarded to any
part ut dr,: world, however distant. No difficulty can occur,
as tilk! Medicine will be securely packed, and carefully pro-
'ated from observation.
