In these colonies, those excesses which we have indulged in “hot youth” tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repinings futile. The sole idea should bo the chances we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or combating the effects likelv to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and that sooner 'or later his vices will discover him to the world. Our faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of our future offspring, and the duty, we owe to. ourselves forbids procrastination, and points out to us, not to wait till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk, before employing a barrister, a careiul man makes enquiries as to their standing, their length of occupancy or residence ; and, in the case of a legal adviser, both as to his legal qualifications and as to his capabilities of transacting the individual business he consults him upon. Strange to say, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits these necessary precautions and without regard to the fitness, qualification, experience and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the nearest man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction. Is it astonishing that so many are driven mad, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money. Have 1 not for years pointed out to them that I, Dr. L. L. Smith, am the only legally-quali-fied medical man advertising in the colonies? Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they are selling,—such as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, etc., —and had them analysed and found them to consist'of “Burnt Sugar and flavoring matter,” and the certificates I have proved to be all forgeries. It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertise, to give those who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they canj consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this his especial study. Dr L. L. Smith is the only legally qualified medical man advertising, and he has been in Melbourne 24 years in full practice on NERVOUS DISEASES LOSS OF POWER AND DEBILITY SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS WANT OF CONDITION GOUT AND RHEUMATISM.
