Princes-street, Dunedin. 2Gth March, 1870. N.B. With reference to the above, I beg most respectfully to inform all those who are in* debted to the late firm that I shall feel extremely obliged to them if they will be kind enough to settle their accounts A T ONCL. DAVID R HAY. “ Up ! Up ! my friend, and clear your looks ! Why all this toil an 1 trouble ? \LL those who are suffering from despondenc ', inelancholi i, loss of spirits and pluck, who feel ihatthevarewastingand pining, an 1 who are gradually getting weaker and weakei, from causes they have not courage or desire to acqu dot the : r family at'endant with : in all such cases, Mr L. L. Smith feels it incumbent on himself to inform such unfortunate pa tents, that he his devoted his lifetime to the study of these complaints, having been a pupil and assistant of the la f e Dr Uulverwell, of London, who made these diseases his special practice. In all those diseases rolaring and pertaining to Married Life, and which make marriage a curse rather than a blessing, Mr L. L. Smith can be consulted with the greatest certainty of success, and with the additional feeling that no chance cm possibly occur of their secret ever being divulged. In cases of extreme Nervous Debility, where the patient feels that he is exhausted and physi-c-.lly prostrated, and incapable of exertion without great fatigue, then and there the person so situated should at once consult MrL. L. Smith, before disease of a more serious character -ets in ; the above arises frequently from the enervating influence of hot climates, but frequently' from other causes of a more serious nature. Palpitations of the heart, a tendency also to be easily starried and alarmed, is another phase of disease which requires particular attention, as arising from a most imp -riant cause ; those who suffer from the above have not — “Mix’d reason with pleasure And wisdom with mirth But have, on the contrary, been guilty of a sec et vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vital*. Many “oil young men” consult me, who, though young in years, have, through the vice above alluded to, and by their having been quacked by the unqualified and unskilful medical non, at last given up all hope and succumbed, and are aged in their very youth, unfitted to fulfil the duties which they were sent to this world to perform. “ Be wise to-dav, ’tis madness to defer, Procrastination is the thief of time/’ Mr L. L. Smith wishes to impress nnon those who are labouring under diseases which cannot be treatel by the general medical attendant, from insufficient knowledge and practice, that as an expert in these diseases, he has the right to warn the public at lar ;e against the number of blatant charlatans and quacks, who not only extort the money out of the pockets of the patients, hut are continually mining the health of tlm unfortunate sufferers. Many hundreds yearly present themselves to him from all the different colonies, who are thoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, a"d they then lament, when too late, the horrible deception which has been practised on them, Not only do men deceive those unfortunate victims by pretending to he legally-qualified men, hut they advertise for sale, and swindle the public, by selling bottles of muck, under the name of “ Dr Bioord’s Essence of Life,” “ Balm of Syriacuin.” and a mass of other quackeries, whose sole province is to extract money out of the pockets of their deluded victims. Vi ill the public never understand that the only guarantee they can have that they will lie honestly and ski fully treated, is the fact that the person to whom they apply for advice is a legally-qualified medical man, who has devoted his t me to the i.ranch of practice for which the patient is seeking aid ? Secondly, that his long •esi telice in the place, and his position, is r.t least a oiiar.antee of the csrimation in which he is held by his fellow-citizens. Dr L. L. Smith can he consulted by letter: fee, 11. J>\ the above means, any male or feniale ontlent can, by describing their synip*vfb» avoid the unpleasantness, in many cases ) ||)i personal interview, and the patient can tl fga lus incognito. .Me indues appropriately packed to avoid ohnervation are sent to till par s of the colonics, with plain let ters as to diet, &c. i'r 1.. . Smith consults personally -daily—mornings before 11, and evenings before 7 and 9, Bonrke-street east, ' elhonrne.
