"THE PROPER STUDY OF MANKIND IS
MAN"
BY !. c. YOUNG. NJ. D.
Author of Comparative Anatomy"
etc, Graduate ofthe University Of Penn
sylvania, Honorary Member ofthe Roy
al College of Surgeons, ETC., etc.
The above work is emphatically the
book for the age. 1t is one Of the most
complete works of the kind that has ever
been published, presenting as it does the
minute analysis Of every form Of veneri-
al disease incident to both sexes, and
above all entering into and describing
particularly the awful work of that ter
rible disease so common among young
men, known as masturbation. The
knowledge to be derived by every one
in having copy of this work in their
possession is beyond conception as any
person who has the slightest reason to
believe that they are afflicted with a
disease, Of which they have been igno-
rant, can, by referring to its pages, in a
few minutes fully understand the nature
of that disease, and be made aware of
the effects attending it; and thus they
may in season apply the proper remedies
and avert its heretofore unseen progress,
which was fast undermining their con-
stitution, and would have resulted either
in death, or what is as awful to contem-
plate, destroying forever the health and
happiness Of the unfortunate victim.
In the preparation Of this work, the
author has not only given practical
exposition Of his own labors, but has
freely consulted and compiled from the
works Of the most popular writer's of the
day, thus presenting careful and well
digested compendium of the most impor-
tant facts and principles furnished by
the ablest writer's that ever lived. This
is sufficient, it is hoped as test of its
accuracy and Of its untold practical value
and utility.
On the receipt of one dollar, this in
valuable work viii be sent to any part
Of the state.
AL those who may desire one copy
or more of this work will please direct
their orders to DIR. J. G. YOUNG, cor
