"Is there no hope?' the sick man said ; The silent doctor shook his head. " * While thero is life there's hope/ he cried." " jEyroto, dum animas est, tpes est." DK. L. L. SMITH (The only legally-qualified Medical man advertising), CONSULTS — On all affestiona of the Nervous System (no mitter from whit cause arising) ; on all broken-down Constitutions ; on all Diseases arising from early Indiscretions ; on Gout ; on Kheumatism. IN these Colonies, those excesses which we haye indulged in "hot youth" tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repiniogs fu*ile. The sole idea should be the chance* we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or comb iting the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may — put on as good an exterior as he can— B till 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 — forbids procrastination, and points out to us not to wait till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk; before employing a barrister— a careful man makes inquiries as to their standing $ 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. Strange to say, however, in : the . selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits thess necessary precautions,., and without regard to the fitness, qu-Uifica-. tion, experience, and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the uearest man, whose experience and praO- . tice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction. Is it astonishing that so many are driven mad, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money? Have I not, for years, pointed out to them that I, Dr. L L Smith] am the only legally-qualified medical mau advertising in the Colonies t Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums tbey are selling — such: as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c— and had them analysed, and found them to oonsist of *-' Burnt sugar and flavoring matter," and the certificates I have proved tobe all forgeries. It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertise, to giVe those who requrie the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they can consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover Wbo has made this his especial study. Dr L L. Smith is the only legally qualified medical man advertising, and he has been in Melbourne 24 years in full practice on Nervous Diseases Loss of Power and - Debility Syphilitic Affections Want of Condition Gout and Rheumatism.'
