' ( While there is life there's hope/ he cried.' " JEgroto, dum animas est, spes est." DR. L. IT SMITH (The only legally-qualified Medical man advertising), CONSULTS— On all affections of the Nervous System,(no matter from what cause arising) • on all broken-down Constitutions ; on all Diseases arising from early Indiscretions j on Gout ; on Kheumatism. , IN these Colonies, those excesses which we. have indulged in " hot youth" tell upon i us with fearful interest. j . Our regrets are useless, our repiniDgs j fulile. The Bole idea should be the chances . we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or conibatwg tue effects likely tj result. '■ Hide it as he may— put on as _good an exi terior as he can— still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and tha*; sooner or later • his vices will discover him to the world. Our '■ Faith— our obligations to' 'society at large— ' the welfare of our iuture offspring— and the duty we owe to ourselves— forbids procrasti nation, and points out to us not to wait' till ' the ravages break ode in Our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential -clerk; before i employing a barrister— a careful nii.n make-) inquiries as to thi-ir 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 i him upon, btrange to say, however, in the selection pf a medical man, tha BuiTerer fce--queutly omiis thes ■ necessary precautions.. • auo without regard to the fitness, qu thfi'jaV : tion, experience, aud ability, for the particu l»r -diluent requiring treatment, he consults the uearest man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction. Is it astonishing that so many are driven mad, are ruined in jiealth, aud are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money? Have 1 not, lor years, poiutea out to them that I, Br. L L, Smith, am the only- legally-qualified medical man advertising hi the Colonies ? Have I not also .prosecuted, at my own expeuee, these ver> quacks, and exposed the various noatrnms they are selling— such as Phospfcouyue, iit-sence of Life, &c— -and had them analysed,, and lound thtm to oonsist of '•' Burnt sugar 1 and flavoring matter," and the certificates I have- peovbd to be ail forgeries. It is ior ihia> reason that i itep out of the ethics of the j»ro-: feabtwn and advertise, to give tho^e who r equnc the services of my bianch an opportunity oi knowing they cau consult a Itgaliy quaufieJ mauj.aud one moreover who uus made this his especial study.
