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-
Giles to matrimonial happiness, but gives rise
TO series Of protracted, insidious aud devas-
tating affections.
Few Of those who give way to this PERM
cious practice are aware OF the consequences,
uatl they find The nervous system shattered,
feel strange and unaccountable sensations, and
vague fears in the mind. (See pages, q, rs,
