TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.

There is an evil habit sometimes INDUCED
in by boys, in solitude, often growing up with
them to manhood, and which, if not reform
ed in due time, not only begets serious obsta-
cles to matrimonial happiness, but gives rise
to series of prolracted, insldiOus aud devas-
tating affections
Few of those who give way to this PERM
cious practice are aware Of the consequences,
until they find the nervous system shattered
feel strange and unaccountable sensations, and
vague fears in the mind. (See pages, u, %,
90, OF DR.. KS book on "SeIf-Prcservation
The unfortunate thus affected becomes fee
Die, is unable to labor with accustomed yigor,
or to apply his mind to study, his step is tar

usual.
If he emancipate himself before the practice
has done its worst, aud enter matrimony, his
marriage is unlrutiu, and his sense tells him
that this is caused by his early folles. These
are considerations ,rach should acakeH the atten-
