so tied cord to her wrist, leaving an end of the
cord hanging ont of the window At the hour

roar of heavens artillery, and his ardor undamp-

his way to the abode of his charmer, seized the

signal was answered by hundred and forty

SEMINAL WEAKNESS OR SPERNATsRRHEA-The
young man who experiences that growing weak
ness in his muscular and mental organization
should stop to consider whence it arises He
will find in the weakness of the back, trembling
of the limbs, disordered digestion unac couatabIe
failing Of the powers of the mind, distaste FOR
society, dread of impending trouble forebodngs
of evil seeplessness troubled and lacivious
dreams accompanied by growing deafness, loss
of muscular power, and numerous other symp-
toms of disorganization- the positive traces of
that most terrible and destructive of all diseases
Seminal Misunderstanding away his powers,
destroying his hope Of lite and manhood, and
dragging him along the broken path of his
existence toward a premature and loathsome
grave To him who finds his life dribbling out
in the discharge of the vital principal of existence
in nocturnal and durnal emissions the mere
cessation of the causes of its appearance brings
no assurance OF relief
Marriage, that holy office, the safeguard and
hope of manhood, brings to such no hope
of cure, but adds to his misery that the one who
looks to him for SO much of happiness is a vic
tim Of his evil, and an innocent companion of
his punishment. He adds to his misery and dis
order until hope leaves him There is rescue
except in proper and skillful treatment Con-
suit, then, at once, physician whom long prac-
tice and careful research has made thoroughly

Those who have become the victims of solitary
vices, that dreadful, fascinating and destructive
habit, which fills thousands of sick rooms with
paralytics and consumptives and hundreds of
untimely graves with its misguided victims,
should consult, without moments delay, one
who will sympathize with their suferings. To
such the Doctor would especially address himself,

TlLrNs Hoors.-Tilting hoops, so popular
among the fair sex, have called out the following
piece of sarcasm:
saw her but a moment
Twas in n fitting skirts
How prettily she sailed along
The charming little Hirt,
saw her but moment,
All twas pretty sight
To see her tr cad the crowded street
With footsteps free and light
saw her but q moment
Yet swore by the . Old Harry
Though pretty thing to look at,
She would never do to marry!
Though saw her but a moment
Yet knew she a firt,
BY the jaunty airs she put
As she swung her fitting skirt.
