[ Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth in strange eruptions."—Axt iii, Scene 1., TO THE PUBLIC, QOME 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 sufier bom.
Let such persons (ho 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 correspondence 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. At 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 1 How many have been enabled to enter into the maariage state through consulting me 1 How many after marriage have pri vately consulted me and been blessed, and their married lives made fruitful and happy. How many wasted ruined yon tbs “f both sexes have also been ivstored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter. How many auestions arise where the family vafflcmii is unable to unravel the/isa/ana where often the patient liters) on, to tell his family nAmwl a (Loser the nature of his /omplamt, Until consumption wasting, or mentamliseases set in, and the sufferer gety beyond the curable stage, and is leftja hopeless Wreck. A letter written in the privacy of the room and dropped into the post box reaches me quietly; the answer is returned as quietly and unostenta* tiously, and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, is by return of post put in full possession of the nature of his case. His hopes are raised, his doubts re« moved, 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. Ihe usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) must be enc osed, otherwise no answer will be returned. There 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 mo before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices; to those, more especially who have suffered in early years ! trom disca 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 bo at your service, you can, by simply en closing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if i lived in your own town, and will) the additional advantage of thorough privacy.—Yours, truly, LOUIS L SMITH.
