Diseased Nature oftentimes break 4 forth in strange eruptions.”—Act 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 jftie self possession and coolness ydie/ ift the consulting room, toaccfrafej(yd|#oribe their symptoms—theif rants of life, and the nature of the maease they suffer from. 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 iu correspondence is so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 year’s,not a single mistake has ever occurred, not a case has ever been made fact, the very simplicity of my system of correspondence prevents pifßficity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to ; defy detection. How many thousands have I not i brought joy to 1 How many have been enabled tc enter into the marriage 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 yonths of both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where the family physician is unable to unravel 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 set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, and is left a hopeless Wreck. A letter written iu the privacy of the room and dropped into the post box reaches me quietly] the answer is returned as qnietly and nnostenta* 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 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. The usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) must be one'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 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 closing 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, truly, LOUIS L. SMITH. Address Dr L. L. SMITH, 182 Collins Street East, Melbourne, Consultation Fee, by Letter, LI, Fee for Personal Consultation, LI Is. The latter is inclusive of Medicine.
