thrown forcibly into the urethra (urine canal) _e_, when needed, and
expelled anteriorly by the ejaculatory muscles of the urethra. To
reach the urethra the Seminal Duct _m_ passes directly through the
body of the Prostate Gland _j_-_b_. Upon the outside of the testicle,
the tube or duct is found twisted and forming a slight bunch, known
as the epididymis, _f_, _g_, _h_.

It is here that the pressure of a +Varicocele+ is first felt--here
that it succeeds _in cutting off the free upward flow of vital fluid_
by pressure on these soft branches of the duct, causing +emissions+
by varying and irregular pressure and +Impotence+ by constant
pressure. When the +Varicocele+ becomes very large, it then destroys
the delicate tubing or the testicle itself.}

The general nervous system also feels the +strain+ and +drain+. +Memory
and application+, +good judgment+, +decision of character+, and
+clear-sightedness+ are not what they were. +Headaches+ are not
uncommon. +Bashfulness and trepidation+, especially in the presence of
females, is the rule. The person feels +clumsy+, +embarrassed+ and +ill
at ease+. +Sleep+ is sometimes poor, there are occasionally +terrible
dreams+, sometimes +lascivious ones+ accompanied by +emissions+,
+drowsiness+ and a tired, languid feeling in the morning, and a
+disinclination to rise+ and go to work are certain signs of +impending+
nervous exhaustion. +The eyes are dull and heavy+, often +black-ringed+
underneath. The pupils of the eyes are unequal--often very
large--sometimes one small and one large. The hands tremble and perspire
+easily+. The person is +absent-minded, melancholy, prone to brood, and
fears the jests+ or ridicule of his companions. The +skin+, especially
of the +face+, sometimes becomes +coarse and red, sometimes is pale and
pasty+ and covered with +blotches or pimples+. There is sometimes +spasm
