■MBqicaL SPECIALTY !/ ; SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nat ure— she compels you to honor the acceptance. mHIRTY TEARS since, when Dr Smit* JL first commenced' practice,, herei it was . thought by medical men, that. to he..aj3pecialist was ■ derogatory to . the professional man, but tbis, like most other innovations in scientific amd.lay matters, was fouiid rathej to aid than to be " infra dig " to" that profes-' sion, wherein the specialty was practised. Lallemand and -Ricord,- in France.-and* Acton* in England, were for years cried down by; their medical brethren. Now and for vur . past years they have been looked up to, aia quoted, by every man who pretends to, havef any knowledge of the .particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen- specially devoted themselves to. It was the same* with' Erasmus Wilson, : the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majeßty. . .. Years since, it was .the same with Dr L. L» Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemand and Ricord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits ■ whi«h produce symptoms of Nervpus Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration; arid make human beings invirile, or which unfit them to carry on the purposes of their being, or whfch demonstrates itself, on theiother hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary fForms of Affections. In all of these cases-how necessary it is to have the Specialist' who! lias devoted his whole lifetime to thestudying and practising iv this one ;branch of. bis . profession ? Hence, now, 'after'so'ttiaty years,' all minutite.arfi familiar to him, and symptoms whibh (it is "hot unreasonable t©; suppose) may not strike the General Practitioner at once, now from constant practice and observation make Dr L. L. Smith master of the subject. , i. The medical prof ession— that as, the more libdral-minded of them— have likewise w- ? cognised this' fact, and Specialists norn in • g every branch — oculists, atnists, sypWlhei mental diseases, '. chest diseasei, • and. m fact ■ every portion of the human fnteftPhai noir - some member of the profession wh« r 'dev»tes his time to that, and to none other. For instance, the " chesf-doctor^would on no account attend ah accouchment,- an'd;lthi.. : oculist would not think of, setting a broken \tg\; but each would advise . kis patient to g» to that doctor who is most fomed > for treating the disease requiring special skill. Dr L. L. Smith afika those who requira treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrenness, and 'Sterility, whose framei/.»nd: whose constitutions are shattered, to consult him.aji an expert— thirty (30) years practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the colonies but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, he claims : ought ■ to, be sufficient to -cause, every, man or woman requiring sueh k skiiras is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. ' As a Syphilographer no other medical man . h^s. been able-to nave iuch ; larger, experienc* as he possesses, and for other, allied affections —such as Nervous, diseases— nn. •nein.the . profession has enjoyed so much ptiblic con.fid«nce.
