" By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws whicn govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected cocoa, Mr Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately-flavored beverage which may save us many heavy doctor'a bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready to attack wherever there- is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame."— See article in the Civil Service Gazette, Made simply with boiling water or milk, Sold in packets by grocers labelled thus : JAMES EPPS AND CO., HOMCEOPATHIC CHEMISTS, LONDON, ENGLAND.

C[ OME paitents suffering from nervous affec)O tions are afraid from sheer bashf ulness and modesty to personally consult a medical man — other patients have not the selfpossession and coolness when in the consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms,their habits of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer from. Lot such persons (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly each symptom of their case; a clear statement thus written, and laid before me, is far preferable in NEUYOUS diseases to a personal consultation. Where, however, a disease ia of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necessary ; but my success in correspondence is so great, that o£ the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 years, not a single mistake has ever occurred, not a case has ever been made public — in fact, the very simplicity of my system of corresponleuce prevsnts publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I not brought joy to 1 How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage state through consulting me i How many after marriage have privately consulted me and been blessed, and their married lives made fruitful and happy 1 How many wasted ruined youths of both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter ? How many questions arise where the family physican is unable to unravel the case, and where often the patient lingers on, not daring to tell his family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption, wasting, or mental diseases set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, and is left a hopeless wreck 1 A letter written in the privacy of the room and dropped in the post box reaches me quietly ; the answer is returned as quietly and unostentatiously, and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, is by return of post put in full possession of the nature of his case. His hopes are raised, his doubts removed and he is comparatively a new man ; in fact, in many cases, a new being altogether. The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age, occupation, habits and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of one LI (one pound) must be enclosed, otherwise no answer will be returned. There are thousands of cases in daily life where a consultation with one at a distanoa, will remove by a single letter a groat fear, a great care, and it often solves what appears aaan impenetrable mystery. Many a sad heart has been made joyful on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To those who are about to marry, I would say consult me before doing so, and. thus pre» vent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices j to those more espeoially who have yiftlded to their passions, To these I say, at once, consult with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, and as a» expert, my time may not be always et your service, you can, by simply enclosing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if I lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.— Yours truly, * LOUIS L. SMITH. Address DR. L. L- SMITH, 182 COLLINS STREET EAST, Melbourne. CONSULTATION FEE, BY LETTER, LI. Fee for personal Consultation, LI Is.
