nest solicitation of numerous persona, he has
been induced tu extend the sphere of hia pro
feeaional usefulness to the community at large,
through Ihe medium of hia "Med, al Manual
Hand-lloolc for the Afflic'cd.''
It is t vnluine that should be in (be hs,,d of
every family in the Ijnil, whether used a* a
preventive of -secret vice, or AS S guide for the
alleviation of one of the most awful and de
structive aeourgaa ever visited upon mankind
for the sins of sensuslily and impurity of every
kind.
It is s volume thst has received the unquali

most freely extended ila circulation in all quar

ly to be instrumental in the moral purification
and phvu.'il healing of multitude 1 of our pro
pfe, among the young. volatile and indiscreet,
otherwiee the pride and flower of lire nation.
The authoi argues particularly, moat ttrongly
against every sftcciee of self-di filetncn', and
warns parents and guaidians, in rea.rhing
terms, to guard the young of hotli sexes from
fit terrible consequences concomitant of their
ignorance of |hy tological lawa and sexual im

mates or otheiwive. To those who have beex
alteady ensnared to iho "pallia that take hold
on hell,'* a clear and explicit nay is shown by
which ihey may secure a tclurn of sound health
and a regeneration of the roul from its terrible
pollution-
It is well known that ihousanJa of victims
are tnnually sacrificed at the abrtne of Quack
ery—especially those sulTeiidg from Vene-eal or
Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak
ness, Nervous Debility, and the numeioss mal
adiea which spring directly or less remotely
from the indulgence of carnal passions and se
cret violations of Nature.
In view of these facts, and when ilia also
considered that about 100,000 persons die annu
ally in the United States of Conoumption—a
large mijortly being the vieitmx of the voluput
oue indiscretion of their piogenilore, agreeably
to the Scriptuial enunciation, that Iho sins of
the parents arc visited upon the children, even to
the third and fourth genetttion. The Author,
imbued with sentiments of enlarged phtlhu'hro

*' Love rules lite oourl, the camp the grove.
For Love is Heaven, and Heaven is Love."
So aang the Bartl; yet thousands pine
For love—of life the light divine—
Who, did they know some gentle charm,
The hearts ol those they love to warm,
Might live, might tlie, in bliss supreme,
Possessing aH of which they dream.
The road lo Wedlock would you know ?
Delay not, but lo RONDOUT go.
Time flies, and from his gloomy wings
A shadow falls on living things;
Then seize the moments RS they pass,
Ere fall Ihe last sands through the glass;
Al least ihe present is your own,
While ail the future is unknown.
A happy marriage man or rnaid
Can now secure by P.GNDOUT'S aid.
CONTENTS:
It teaches how to make ladies or gontle
men win the devoted affections of as many

ged with such ease and delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how to make love.
It teaches every eye lo form a beauly of its
own.
It teaches how to act when fascinated by a
lady.
