What it Is, What it Does, and How it is allowed to Drain Away, Weakening, Emasculating and Dementing the Vicious and the Careless. Diurnal (daily) Emissions. Nocturnal (nightly) Emissions. Impalpable Oozings. Losses in the Urine. Losses while at Stool. Mistaken Gleet. There are thousands of weak, nerveless men, who do not know what ails them; thousands of invalids whose physicians are puzzled and perplexed by their symptoms, and cannot account for the rapid waste of strength, energy and vitality, much less check it; and thousands of others, on the street, in the pulpit, on the bench, in the counting room, whose troubles, illness and misery are due to losses of vital fluid. Some know it, many more do not. Some are being properly or improperly treated for it; many are being dosed and drugged for Malaria, Neurasthenia, Consumption, Overwork, Brain Troubles, Paralysis and many equally as foolish and irrational complaints. They sicken, die, destroy themselves in hopeless despair of ever getting well and strong again, verge into hopeless idiocy or go raving mad, simply because their trouble is not understood; because day by day and hour by hour there is draining from them in their urine, at stool and otherwise, that precious vital fluid that represents life, health and energy to them. {Illustration: Fig. 1. A HUMAN TESTICLE. Perfectly Healthy. [From Gray's Anatomy.] Each _lobule_ may be seen (carefully guarded from pressure or injury) in its cell, with a strong fibrous partition on each side. All these _lobules_ empty into small ducts which converging form the _Globus Major_, _Epididymis_ and _Globus Minor_, which finally end in the _Vas Deferens_, _Cord_, _Duct_, or _Tube_ that conveys the fluid to the Seminal Vesicles at the back of the bladder. (See _Figs._ 5, 6.) As the veins of a _Varicocele_ surround these delicate _lobules_ as well as _fine tubing_, it can readily be seen how easily such pressure, weight and crowding may do very serious injury and make the flow of semen irregular, or shut it off altogether.} {Illustration: Fig. 2. HUMAN SPERMATAZOA. [From Gray's Anatomy.] A. Healthy, well developed and active zoa-sperms from the _Vital Fluid_ of a strong, robust man. B. Showing cells and bunches, in which form they are secreted or made by the testicles.} And is it surprising that the continual losses do drain away strength and vitality? This fluid is the only one charged with _life_--actual _life_; capable of producing _life_--of creating offspring--of impregnating and developing into perfect being, with thinking and reasoning brain and mind, pulsating heart, expanding lungs, sentient nerves, motive muscle, and all that beautiful, minute and co-ordinate mechanism that forms a perfect human being--the only secretion in the body capable of propagating species--carrying _life_ within _life_.
