that may ensue. Although imp0tency occurs from
structure dep0sites in the urine, gravel and from
merouS other causes, yet the abuse of the sexual or
gans, by excessive venery or selfpoluton; particu
larry the latter is the more frequent cause OF it. Now
who that understands the subject will pretend to deny
that the power of procreatng the species lost
