To those who have tried their family medical adviser without the desired relief. . And to those who suffer from Spermatorrhwa, and other fearful results of indiscretion . in youth. ' Dr. L. L. SMITH begs to state he has devoted the whole of his life to the study and treatments SYPBDtLiTto Diseases, and hay* ing successfully practised during the last twenty years in the colony, he suggests to all new arrivals the expediency of throwing off any false delicacy or modesty, and to at once apply and obtain that relief which their case requires, .before. the disease becomes utterly incurable, and the, unfortunate victim totally, impotent. In one instance, married life can be made a blessing and a joy, and in the other, a misery, self-reproach, and degradation. >■■ <-' ; Dr. L.

A PARADOX.— TO SUFFERERS. ;NERJOU^Eks JIfiNATURE fc'CURE. What is Nervousness?— Various answera might be given to this question, according to the constitution and. knowledge of the individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nervousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes only believed to be real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this— Neivousmss is an «n---natural condition of tlienervom system. Sometimes thiß unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength j but in most cases there is in the earlier stages of the disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found, in both sexes ; they often have the bloom ; of health upon the cheek j they are surrounded by kind friends, yet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpectedly' they feel confused, afraid, and alarmed ; the" heart beats violently, the hand shakes when; writing, and the whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. The intellect ' also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant topics, the spirits are very low or very excited, the ordinary duties of life become burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. A Stange Spectacle. —lt is certainly strange, but not the less true," that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the nervousness above' described ; unhappy themselves, they render other people unhappy. . Why is this ? What cause has operated to change the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining youth into the unhappy, drowsy, Eistiest, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ? Many causes, or one cause only, may operate to produce this sad state ; the cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. yl tempts to Cure Nervousness by means of ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that the leading physicians now for the most part recommend hygienic means, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction ; change of air and scene, as in travelling. If all these fail, as they 1 often do, what is to be done ? ; ;; ; ) The Answer will be found by carefully perusing the Fottowinff Work: — Ninth Edition, post free Is 4d, NERVOUS DEBILITY, ITS CAUSE AND CURE, With Plain Directions for Perfect Restoration to Health, Applications for a copy of the above work must be accompanied by the amount in New Zealand or other stamps, also a properlydheoted envelope. > Address — CHARLES SENNET, A<jbnt, Brooklyn House, Flag-s^aff Gardens, Melbourne,'
