They have long since .been used in one of the largest County Hospitals in Great Britain, and received the commendation of several eminent physicians and surgeons ; and have proved their value in thousands ofi nstances in diseases of the Head, Chest, Bowels, Liver, and Kidneys ; and in all Skin Complaints are one of the best medicines known.

Up> my friend, and clear your lookß Why all this toil and trouble ? " ALL those who are suffering from despondency, melancholia, loss of spirits, and pluck, who feel that they are wasting: , : and pining, and who are gradually getting weaker and weaker, from causes they. have ) not courage or desire to acquaint their family - attendant with. In all Buch cases Mr L. L. a SMITH feels it incumbent on himself to J inform such unfortunate patients, that, he has devoted his lifetime to the study of these r complaints, having been a pupil and assistant of the late Dr Culverwell, of London, who made these diseases his special practice. In all those diseases relating and pertaining to Married Life, and which make marriage a . curse rather than a blessing, Mr L. Li SMITH can be consulted with the greatest certainty of success, and with the additional feeling - that no chance can possibly occur of their secret ever being divulged. , . In cases of extreme Nervous Debility, where the patient feels that he is exhausted and physically prostrated, and incapable of exertion without great fatigue, then and there the person so situated should at once consult Mr L. L. Smith before .disease of a more serious character sets in; the above arises frequently from the enervating influence of hot climates, but frequently from other causes ot a more serious nature. Palpitations 01 the heart, a tendency also to be easily startled and alarmed, is another phase of disoaße which requires particular attention, as arising from .a most important cause ; those wno suffer from the al wo have NOT— " Mixa reason with pleasure, i Ana wisdom with mirth." But have, on tne contrary, been* guilty 1 of a secret vice, wmen has, as it were, eaten into their very vitais. Many "old young men' consult me, wno, though young in years, have, througn tne vice above alluded to, and b from their having been . quacked by the unqualified ana unskilful medical man, at last given up ail nope and succumbed, and are aged in their very youth, unfitted to fulfil the duties wnlcn they were sent on this earth to periorm. . "Be wise to-day, 'tis madness to defer, Procrastination is the thief of time." 1 MrL. L; SMITH wishes to impress on those who are laboring under diseases which cannot be treated by the general medical * attendant, troiii insufficient knowledge and 3 practice, that hb an expert in these he has the rijjnt to warn the public at large against the number of blatant charlatohs and ' quacks who not only extort the money out of the pocket* of the patients, but are continually ruining tlie health of the unfortunate . sufferers. Many hundreds yearly present themselves to mm from all the different colonies, wlio are tnoroughly bankrupt in health and pocket, ana they then lament, when too ■ late, the horrible deception which has been practised on tnein. ■, ' •■ •• jNot only ao men deceive these unfortunate victims by pretending to be legally-qualified men, but they advertise for sale, and swindle the public, by selling bottles of muck, under the name of " .l)r Ricord's Essence of Life," "Balm of Jsvriacum," and a mass of other quackeries, wnose sole province is to extract money out ot the pockets of their deluded victims. -. .. Will the puDllc never understand that the only guarantee nney can have that they willbe honestly and skilfully treated, is the fact that the person to whom they apply for advice is a legally-qualified medical man who has devoted ius time to the branch of practice for whica the patient is seeking aid? Secondly, that ms long residence in the place, and his position, is at least a guarantee of . the estimation in which he is neld by his fellow-citizeu«. - -•■-■- - -•■ _■ • _ Dr. L. L. SMITH can be consulted by letter; fee, £L By the abovu means any male or female patient cau, uv describing their symptoms, avoid the, in many cases, unpleasantness of a personal interview, and the patient can retain his incognito, • Medicines appropriately packed to avoid observation are sent to all parts of the colonies, with plitm letters of instruction as to diet, &c Mr L. L. HMITH consults personally daily, mornings before 11, and evenings between 7 and 9. 192 Bourke street east, Mulboumo, • .^ ■ \ :.; ; ':'-■■■■.'■'
