"Is there no hope \ the sick man said ; The silent doctor shook his h..id." " While ihere is life there's hope, he cried." " dum amma est, spes eat," ' DB, L. L. SMITB, (The only legally qualified medical man advertising.) CONSULTS on all Affections- of the Nervous System (no mutter roni what c-uise arising). On all broken-down constitutions. On all diseases arising from early indiscretions. On Gout. On Rheu natism, IN these colonies, those excesses which we have indulged in "hot youth" tell upon us with fe.irful interest. Our regrets are useless,' our repinings futile. The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the ills weal- 1 ready have, or combating the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and that sooner or later his vices will discover him to the world. Our faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of our future offspring, and the duty, we owe to ourselves forbid procrastination, and point out to us, not to wait till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negociating with a merchant, before engagiug with a confidential clerk, before employing a barrister, a careful man makes enquiries as to their standing, their length of occupany 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 consults him upon.

Smith, am the only legally qualified man advertising in the Colonies?" Have I not also prosecuted, J at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they are selling,—such as Phosphodyne, Essence of, life, &c.—and had analised and found them to consist of " Burnt Sugar and flavouring matter," and the certificates I have proved to be all forgeries. It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of profession and advertise, to give those who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they can consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this his especial study. Dr. L L. Smith is the only legally qualified medical man advertising, and he has been in Melbourne twenty-four years in full practice on Nervous Diseases Loss of Power and Debility Syphilitic Affections Want of Condition Gout and Rheumatism. Dr. L. L. Smith can be consulted by letter—Fee, £l. Medicines forwarded to all the colonies. Dr. L. L. Smith, 182 Collins-st. East. (Late the Residence of the Governor.
