MEDICAL. " Is there no hope,'* the sick man saidj The silent doctor shook His head. *lWhile there is life there’s hope,” he cried. ** iEgroto, dtun onimas est, spes est.” DR. L. L. SMITH, he only legally-qualified medical man ad vertising, consults : On all affections of the Nervous System ' (no matter from what cause arising). On all broken-down constitutions. On all diseases arising from early indiscre-i tions. On Gout and Rheumatism. IN these colonies, those excesses which we! have indulged in “ hot youth ” tell upon; us with fearful interest. j Our regrets are useless, our repinings l futile. The sole idearshould be the chance' we possess of remedying the ills we alread have, or combating the effects likely t result. Hide it as he may, put on as goo. an exterior as he can, still is the victim con scions that he is a living lie, and that sooner or later his vices will discover bin) to.the world. Our Faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of our futur<| offspring, and the duty we owe to ourselves forbid procrastination, and point out to us not to wait till thfe ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant,* before engaging with a confidential clerk, before employing a barrister, a careful mad makes inquiries 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 con-5 suits upon him. 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 parti-, cular ailment requiring treatment, he consults -the nearest man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lie 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 I not for yews pointed out to them that 7, Dr. L. L. Smith, am the only legally qualified medical practitioner 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, &c—and had them! analysed, and found them to consist of “Burnt Sugar and flavoring matter,” and the certificates I have proved to he all forgeries, It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and ad vertise, to give those who require the ser vices of my branch an opportunity of know ; ing they can consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this his especial study.
