' the sick man said ; The silent doctor shook his head. « While there is life there's hope/ he cried.' " JSgroto, dum animas est, spes eat." DR. L. L. SMITH (The only legally-qualified Medical man advertising), CONSULTS — On ali affections ot the Nervous System (no matter irom what cause arising ; on all broken-down Constitutions ; on ali Disease* arising from early Indiscretions ; on Gout s on Rheumatism. IN these Colonies, those excesses which we have indulged in "hot youth" tell upoa us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repininga futile. The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or combating the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may— put on as good an exterior as he can— still i 8 the victim conscious that he is a living He, and that sooner or later his vices will discover him to the world. Oar Faith— our obligations to society at large— the weiiare 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 - t 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 thesß 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 ruiued in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money? Have I not, tor years, pointed out to them that I,JDr 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 S 6y ar « T 8 . ce j li£ >e-Buch as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c.-and had them analysed and found tutm to oonsisb 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 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 Has made this his especial study.
