Why all this' toil a i l trouble 2” 4 LL those who are suffering from des- » pondenc ,m< lancbolia, 10-s of spirits, and pluck, who feel that they are wasting and pining, and who are gradually g tting we iker and weaker, 'rbm causes they have no courage tor desire to'acquaint th ir family ‘ ttendaufcwith. In all such ca=csMr. L. L. SMITH feels it incumbent on bimse'f to inform such unfortunate pa ients, that he has devoted his lifetime to the study of these complaints, having been a pup-1 and assistant of the la*e Dr. Culve well, of London, who made these diseases his special prac ice. In all those diseases relating and pertaining to Marrie I Life, and which make marriage a curse rather than a bles ing, Mr L. L Lmith can be consulted wi hj the greatest certainty of success, and with the additional feeling that no chance can possibly occur of their secret ever being divulged. In cas'-s of extreme Nervous debility, where the pa'ient fee s that he is exhausted and physically prnstra'ed, ano incapable of evertion without great fatigue, then and there the person so situated should at once consult Mr. L L. SMITH before disease of a more so ioua character sets in ; the above arises frequently from the enervating influence of hot clima es, but frequently from other causes of a more serious nature. Palpitarions of the heart, a t ndency also to be easily startle 1 and alarm ml, is another phase of disease which requires particular att ntion, as arising from a most, i.upor.ant cause ; those who suffer from the above have not—- “ Mix’d wi*h pleasure, An i wisdom with mirth.” But have on the contrary, bean guilty of a secret vice, which has, as it were, eaten into their very vitals. Many “ old young men ” consult me, who, though young in years, have, through the vice above alluden to, and from their having been quacked by the unqualified an i unskilful medical man, at last.givca up all hope and succumbed, and are age ! in their very youth, uniitte to fulfil the duties which they are set on this earth to berform. “Be wise to-day, ’tis madness to defer Procrastination is the thi. f of time.” Mr. L. L. SMITH wishes to impress on those who are laboring un er diseases which cannot bo treated by the general medical attendant, from i sufficient knowledge and practice, that as an export in those diseases, he has the right to warn the public at large against the number of blatant charlatans and quacks who not only extort the mi mey out of the pockets of the patients, but are continually ruining the health of the unfortunate sufferers. Many hun Ireds yearly present themselves to him from all the different colonies, who are thoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, and then lament, whon too late, the horrible deception which has been practised on them. hi ot only do men deceive these unfortunate victims by pretending to bo legally qualified men, but they advertise for sale, andswindle the public, by selling bottles of muck, under the name of Dr. Ricord’a Essence of Life,” “Balm ot Syriacum,” and a mass of quackeries, whose sole province is to extract money out of the pockets of their deluded victims. Will the public never understand that the only guarantee they can have that they will be honestly and skilfully treated, is the fact that the person to whom they apply for advice is a legally qualified medical man who has devoted his time to the bran hj of Eractice for which the patient is seeking aid? econdly, that his long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of the estimation in which he is b aid by bis follow-citizens Dr. L. L. SMITH can be consulted by letter ; fee £l. By the above means any male or female patient can, by describing their symptoms avoid the, in many cases, unpleasantness of a pciSoUaL interview, and the patient can retain his incognito. Medicines appropriately packed to avoid observation are sent to all parts of the colo ies, with plain letters of instruction as to diet, Ac., Mr. H L, SMITH consults personally daily, morning, before 11, and evenings bcween 7 and 9.—102. Bourke-street east, Melbourne.
