"Is there no hope ? ' the sick man said ; The silent doctor shook his head. ' ' While there is life there's hope/ he cried." " JEgroto, dum animas est, spes est." DR. L. L. SMITH (The only legally-qualified Medical man advertising), CONSULTS — On ali affections of the Nervous System (no matter from what cause arising) ; on all broken-down Constitutions ; on all Diseases arising from early Indiscretions ; on Gout ; on Rheumatism. IN these Colonies, those excesses which we have indulged in " hot youth " tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repinings futile. The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the ills we alreidy 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— onr 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 nquiries 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, qualification, experience, and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the nearest man, whose experience, and practice, 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 ihe only legally-qualified medical man advertising in the Colonies ? Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they 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 to be all forgeries It is for this reason that I step out of the eihics 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 mm, aod 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 24 years in full practice en Nervous Diseases Loss of Power and Debility Syphilitic Affections Want of Condition Goat and Rheumatism.

Davenport, that he bad received information to the "effect that the only remedy of any service in | Cholera was Chlorodyne.— See lancet, Dec. i 31, 18P4. I From A. Montgomery, Esq., late Inspector j of Hospitals, Bomb jy :—" Chlorodyne is a most valuable remedy in Neuralgia, Asthma, | and Dysentery. To it I fairly owe my restoration to health, after eighteen months' of severe suffering, and when all other remedies had failed." Dr. Love, Medical Missionary in India, reports (December, 1865).— "That in nesriyevery cage of Cholera in which Dr. J. Collis Browne's Chlorodyne was administered, the patient recovered." Extract from the Medical Times, January 12th, 1866:— "Chlorodyne is prescribed by scores of orthodox Medical Practitioners. Ot course it would not thus be singularly popular, did it not 'supply a want and flit a place.' " Extract from the General Bowd of Health. London, as to Its efficicy in Cholera :— " So strongly convinced are we of the immense value of this remedy, that we cannot too forcibly urge the necessity of adopting it in all cases."
