“ Is there no hops V” tho hick man sad ; Tho silent doctor shook his head. “ Whilo then* is life there’s hope” he cried. “ /Egroto, duiu animus cst, spos eet.” \\Tk hj. L SMITH, | / (th** o-ilv 1-pall ’-qualified medical man advertising) coys v l t s On all affections of tho Nervous System (no matter from what cause arising). On all broken-down constitutions. On all diseases arising from early indiscretions. On Gout, _ On Hheumatvm. In those colonies, those excesses which wo have indulged in “ hot youth ” tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repinings futile. The sole idea should bo tho chances wo possess of remedying tho ills wo already have, or combating the effects likely to result. Hide it us ho may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is the victim onseious that he is a livijig Ho, and that soonor or Inter his vices will discover him *o tho world. Our Faith, our obligations to society at largo, the welfare of our future offspring, and the duty wo owe to ourselves forbids procrastination, and points out to us, not to wait till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before nogociating with a merchant, before engaging with a commercial clerk ' efore employing a barrister, a Careful man makes enquiries as to their standing, their ength of occupancy or residence; and, in lie case of a legal adviser, both as to his legal qualifications and us to his capabilities of transacting the individual business ho consults upon. Strange to say, however, in the selection of a medical man, tho sufferer frequently omits those necessary precaution and without regard to tho 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.

It is astonishing that so many are drivon mad, are ruined in health, and are hank* nipt In spirits, hope and money ? Have f not for years pointed out to them that “I. I >r. L. L. Smith, am the only legally qualified medical man advertising in the colonies ? ” Have I not also prosecuted, a my own expense, those very quacks, and exposed the various nostriums they are selling,—such as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c.—-and had them analysed and found them to consist of “ Burnt sugar and flavoring mutter,” and the certificates 1 have rroved to ho all forgeries. It is for tiiis reason that I step out of the ethics of tin' profession and advertise* to give those who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they can consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this Ids study.

Wood Stated that DR. 00LL18 BROWNE was undoubtedly the inventor of CHLORODYNE; tnut the story of the defendant, Freeman, being tlio inventor was deliberately untrue, which ho regretted hud been sworn so. Eminent hospital physicians of London stated that Dr. J. Colfis Browne was the discoverer of Chlorodyno; tliut they prescribe largely, and mean no other than Dr. Biwue’s.—tfeo “Times,” July IJ, 1801.
