"Is there no hope?' the sick man said j The silent doctor shook his head. * * While there ia life there's hope,' ha cried.' " 2Egroto t dum animus est, spes est." DR. L. iT SMITH (The only legally-qualified Medical man advertising), CONSULTS— On all affections of the Nervous System (no m-itter 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 rcpinings fu'ile. The sole idea should be the chnnces we possess of remedying the ills wa already have, or combating tue 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— our obligations . to society at large— the welfare of our tuture offspring— and the duty we owe to ourselves — forbids procrasti nation, 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 msn 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, btrange to Bay, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequeutly omits thess necessary precautions, and without regard to the fitness, qualification, experience, and ability for the particular ailment 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 health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money? Have I not, lor years, pointed out to them that I, Dr. L. L, Smith, am the only legally-qualified medical man advertising in the Colonies f Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they are selling— Buch as Phoaphodyne, Essence of Life, &c. — and had them analysed, and found them to oonaist of " Burnt sugar and flavoring matter," and the certificates I have phoved to be all forgeries. It ia lor this reason that I etep 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, aud one moreover who lias made this his especial study. Dr L L. Smith ia 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. Dr. l. L. SMITH can beconaulted by letter —Fee £i. Medicines forwarded to all the colonies. Dr. L. L. SMITH, 182 Collins at. Bast. /.(Late the Residence of the Governor), StELBOUBNE. 2IQ I
