INVOL UN7.4RY SEMINAL E ONs."
: OF this distressing disease, which |5le Common
result of the above mentioned secret habit, but very
brief description for many reasons can be given here
u The complaint comes on gradually. 1t begins by a
too hasty discharge of semen in copulative and pas
sionate dreams. Such emissions being too hasty
have Ropower, while the erections are feeble, imper
feet and soon over. AS the disorder grows worse
the discharges or emissions become more easily ex-
cited and frequent, often brought on by lascivious
ideas or by merely touching the part In this deplo-
rable case the emissions take place without any
pleasure and without erection, and in this debtated
and sensitive state of the organs the dreful effects OF
pollution so ruinous TO health, take place day and
night. Pale, emaciated, and weak the unhappy VIC
tim of artificial qualification complains of pain the
head and back, has languid look, diuness of sight,
flushing OF the face when spoken TO- lOwness of sp
rits, and vague dread of something often starting
with terror at sudden sight or sound. He also
loaths society, tTom an innate sense OF shame, and
feels dislike to all bodily and mental exertion.-
Distressed, and his mind fixed upon his miseries, he
syly searches every source that promises relief
Ashamed to make known his situation to his friends,
or those who by education, study,an practical know

rant and designing, who fitch him of his pecuniar
substance and instead Of restoring him to health
leave him to sigh over his calling disappointment; the
last scene of the drama winds up with mania, cata-
epsy epilepsy some terrible disease the nerves
