Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth in strange umptioag.”—A.ct iii, Scene 1. TO THE PUBLIC, SOME patients suffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to personally consult a medical man—other patients have not the self possession and coolness when in the consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms—their habits of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer fiom. Let such persons (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly each symptom of their | case, a clear statement thus written, and laid before me, is far preferable in nervous diseases to a personal consultation- Where, however, a disease is of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necessary ; but my success in coirespondence is so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32
years, not a single mistake has ever occurred, not a case has ever been made public—in fact, the very simplicity of my system of correspondence prevents publicity. A t the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I not brought joy to? flow many have been enabled to enter into the maariago state through consulting me ? How many sifter marriage have pri vately consulted me and been blessed, and their married Jives made fruitful and happy. How many wasted ruined yonths "f both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for hiving consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where
the family physician is unable to unlavtl the case, and where often the patient lingers on, not daring to tell his family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption wasting, or mental diseases sot in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, and is left a hopeless Wreck. A. letter written in the privacy of the room and dropped into the post box reaches me quietly ] the answer is leturncd as quietly and miostenta* tionsly, and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to post Ids letter, is by return of post put in full possession of the nature of his case. His hopes are raised, his doubts removed, and he is comparatively a new man ; in fact, in many cases, a new being altogether.
The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age, occupation, habits and symptoms, nothing more. Iho usual consultation fes ot LI (one pound) must be one osed, otherwise no answer will be leturued.
'1 here are thousands of cases in daily life where a consultation with one at a distance, will remove by a single letter, a great fear, a great care, and it often solves what appears as an impenetrable mystery. Many a sad heart has been made joyfut on receipt of an explanatory note from me. To those who are about to marry I would say consult me before doingso, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices; to those, more especially who have suffered in early years from disea-e, or who have yielded to their passions. To these I say, at once, consult with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, and as an expert, my time may not always be at your service, you can, by simply en dosing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if 1 lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.—Yours, trnlv, LOUIS L. SMITH.
