This Dreadful pisease-which renders Life mis-

paid by the victims Of improper indulgenoes.
Young persons are too apt to commit excuses from
not being aware Of the dreadful consequences that
may ensue. Now, who that understands the
subject will pretend to deny that the power Of
procreation is lost sooner by those falling into
improper habits than by the prudent. Besides
being deprived the pleasures Of healthy Of
