TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE. ,.r
Dr. J. addresses all those who have injured
themselves by improper indulgence ana solitary
habits, which rui IN both body and mind, uRhttlng
them for either business study, society or mar
riage.
These arc some of the sad and melancholy eff
frcts produced by the early habits OF youth VIZ:
Weakness of the Back and Limbs, rams IN the
Head, Dimness Of Sight, Loss Of muscular foW-
cr, P,llpitaton Of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous
Irritsbility Derangement of the Digestive Func-
tions, General Debility, Symtoms of Consump-
ton, Sc. ,r....u,.
are much to be dreaded. Loss of Memory, Com
fusion of Ide,.s, Depression of Spirits, Evil Fore
bodinps Aversion TO Society, Self Distrust, Love
of Solitude, Timidity, &c., are some OF the Owls
produced.
Thousands of persons of al ages can now judge
what is the cause of their declining health losing
their vigor, becoming weak, pale, nervous and
e,naciated, having singular appearance about
the eyes, cough and symptoms Of Consumption.
YOUNG MEN ........-
Who have injured themselves by certain prac-
tice already described, Il habit frequently learn
cd from evil companions or at school, the effects
of which are nightly felt, even when asleep and
if not cured, renders marriage impossible and
destroys both mind and body, should apply inn
mcdiatey
What pity that young man, the hope of
his country, tho pride Of his parents, should be
snatched from all prospects and enjoyment OF
life by the consequence of devlatlng from the
pa,h of nature, and indugDg in perniclous
habits Such persons must before contemplate
ing.
Reflect that q sound mind and body are tho
most necessary requisites TO promote connublal
happiness Indeed, without these. the journey
through life becomes weary pilgrimage, the
prospect hourly darkens to the vew, the mind
becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with
the melancholy reflection that the happiness OF
another is blighted with our own.
DISEASES. OF IMPRUDENCE
When the misguided and imprudent votsry of
pleasure finds that he has mbbed the seeds Of
this painful disease, it too often happens that an
il-tlmed sense Of shame or dread of discovery de-
tiers him from applying to those who, from edu-
cation and rcspectabIty, can alone Deiriehd hlni,
delaying till the constitutional symptoms Of tho
borrld disease makes their appearance, such us
uIcerateI sore throat; diseased nose, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, dlInness of sight,
deafness, nodes on the shin bones and arms:
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro-
crossing with frightlul rapidity, till At last the
palate Of the mouth or the bones Of the nose
ELI in, and the victim of this awful disease be-
comes horrid object of commisseration till
death puts period to his dreadful suffering, by
sending him to that undiscovered country from
whence no traveller returns
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrible disease, through faihbng
