"This is, without exception, tho most compre-
hensive and intelligent work published on the
class of diseases on which it treats. Avoiding all
technical terms, it addresses itself to the reason
Of its renders. 1t is free from all Objectionable
matter, and no parent, however iastidious, can
object to placing il in the hands OF his sons. The
author has devoted many years to the treatment
OF the various complaints treated OF, and with toe
little breath to puff, and too little presumption to
impose, he has offered to the world, ut the mere
~ nominal price of IS cents, the fruit ofsome 20
years mos: successful practice.
"No teacher or parent should be without the
knowledge impaired in this invaluable WORK. 1t
would save years Of pain, modification and sor-
row to the youth under their chargc." --Peogte's
AdrCcGte.
A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing OF
Hunters Medical MANUAL says: !" Thousands
upon thousands of our youth, by evil example
and influence of,hc passions, have beed led into
the habi, of self:polution, without realizing, the
sin and fearful consequences upon themselves
and their posterity. The constitutions of thous-
ands who are raising families have been eniee-
bied, il not broken down, and they do not know
the cause or the cure. ANY thing that can DO
done 60 to enligh,en and influence the public
mind as to check and ultimately to'romoSe this
widespread source of human wretchedness,
would confer the greatest blessing next to the
religion of Jesus Christ, on the present aud com
ing generation. Intempcrancc in the use oil IN
toxicating drinks, though it has slain thousands
upon thousands, is not greater scoutgc TO inc
human race. Accept my thanks on behalfoF III
afflicted, and believe nc your co-worker IN the
good work you are actively engaged III"
