Diseased Nature ottentimea break forth in strange eruptions.”—Act iii Scene 1. . , TO THE PUBLIC. - ' ,v;.. SOM E 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 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, j 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 j 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 oc- » curred, not a case has ever been made public—in fact, the very simplicity of 1 ray system of correspondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to a defy detection. 1 How many thousands have I not g brought joy to 1 j 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. a How many questions arise where t the family to un- ! ravel the casaf the 1 patient linpfi; ifkfjwrdQgpg to tell his family medicaLmmser the nature of his complaip<i until consumption ! wasting, or mental diseases set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable ( stage, aud is left a hopeless Wreck. j A letter written in the privacy of ’ the room and dropped into the post j box reaches me quietly ; the answer is , returned as quietly and unostenta* . tiously, and the patient, without step- < ping 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* i moved, and he is comparatively a new 2 man ; in fact, in many cases, a new being altogether. c The only addition to the ordinary e written letter is the age, occupation, j 1 habits and. symptoms, nothing more, 1 ® Ihe usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) must he 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 1 of an explanatory note from me. To those who are about to marry I would say consult me before doing so, ( and thus prevent many after troubles, - and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices j to those, more especi- * ally who have suffered in early years 1 trom disease, 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 ex-' . pert, 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 I lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.—Yours, truly, LOUIS L.
