CURIOUS, SCARCE, and INTERIS FIND WORK.
A few Copies, pries M. are only now left on sale, containing
near 900 pages of letter-press, an elegant Portrait of eke Au-
thor, and a View of Gilead• House, of
QOLOMON's GUIDE TO HEALTH ;
LP vice to Both Sexes in a Variety of Complaints. To which
is annexed, A Dissertation on the Properties and Effects of Hot
and Cold Bathing; also an Rosy on Secret Venery ; and a Dis.
worse on Impotency in the Male, and Sterility and Barrenness
Incident to Females, &c. The whole illustrated with a variety of
authentic Facts, never before published.
London : Printed for the Author; and sold by Mathews and
Leigh, Na. IS, Strand ; Sherwood, Neely, and Jones ; I.ongman,
Hurst, Rem, and Orme, Paternostctrow ; also by all Book-
sellers in the United Kingdom.
No other motive, than the utility wide,' this wort might be
to mankind, could have induced the Author to undertake it.
The crimes of our fellow-creatures afford bat a melancholy re-
flection ; the consideration of which affects whilst k huntiliates he-
man nature. The idea of elminishing their frequency, and soften-
ing the miseries that flow from them, is itself sufficient recant-
pence. The difficulty of couveying ideas upon a subject that ne-
cannily requires terms and expressions of an unbecoming ten.
dency, has not passed unobserved; nor has any precaution been
neglected to render the language as grateful to the reader as the
subject Is susceptible its. There are Stumbling-blocks, inseparable
therefrom, that could not be dispensed with. Should such im-
portant artisles as are therein enumerated, be passed over in si-
lence ? Certainly no. The Sacred Writers—the Fathers of the
Church—the Ecciesbatieal Writers, did not think it proper to be
passive upon Jinxes of sensual depravity, because they could not
be described without words. To check the dreadful consequences
of secret, delusive, and vicious peoponsities, it is necessary to
follow their example; agreeing with St. Augustine, who says,
" If what I have written should give offence to any libidimomper-
son, let hini rather accuse his own turpitude, than the words I
have been obliged to use, in explaining my thoughts upon the ge-
neration of Man I hop:: the wise and modest reader will fergive
me for those vspressions I was obliged to make use of." The stir-
_mous and enlightened, who well know the proneness of man to
evil, will approve my endeavours to snake mankind shun vice,.
by the dread of present ill and future misery, certain attendants
on the aline of manurbation.
-la No less than One Hundred Thousand Five Hundred Copies
of Solootan's Guide to 1 itAlth have been printed--which, in itself,
is the most convincing argument that can be adduced of the vast
utility of this work.
