Patent Medicine Nervousness—Debility—Loss or Power— Spermatorrhea—The Indiscretions of Early Youth—Syphilitic Diseases. In all the above cases, arising from errors and the yielding to the passions, no time should be lost to at once arrest the progress of disease. T) R L. L. SMITH *-J has devoted himself for twenty years in the colony to the practice of this branch of his profession, while previously in England he was the pupil of, and practised with, the celebrated Dr R. T. Culverwell, the only medical practitioner who ever exclusively adopted this as the sole branch of his profession. Dr L. L. Smith hereby informs the "public that he is the only hriaUy-qualified medical man in thin speciality of his profession ; that others advertising are unqualified, and that, therefore, in pretending to be qualified, they are obtaining money under false pretences. Dr L. L. Smith also warns the public against the quackeries advertised. If the taker of any of these advertised nostrums escape with his life, or his system be not thoroughly and irreparably undermined by them, he may look upon himseif as the most fortunate mortal. Dr L. L. Smith has been applied to by so many unfortunate broken-down young-old-men, utterly crushed in spirit, ruined in body, and filched in pocket, that he deems it a duty to publish this to the world. Those men and women who have been the victims of unprincipled charlatans frequently seek that recovery which is often beyond Dr Smith's control. When will the public understand that it is to their interest to consult a duly qualified medical man, who has made this his sole study, rather than apply to a number of ignorant impostors, who merely harp and prey upon their pockets and health ? Dr L. Smith has always stated that to warn the public of these quicksauds is his chief reason for advertising. In all cases of nervous debility, lowness of spirits, loss of power, pimples on the forehead, lassitude, inaptitude for business, impotency, drainage from the system, and the various effects of errors of youth, and bloodpoisoning from diseases previousiy contracted, Dr L. L. Smith invites sufferers to consult him, as he has no hesitation in stating that no medical man, either here or in England, has had the opportunities of pracI tite and extraordinary etperiecce which he has
