QTEEDMAK'S SOOTHING POWDERS CEILDBEN CUTTING TEETH. CAUTION TO PUECHASEBS. The value of this veil known Family Medicine has been largely tested in all parts of the world, and by all grades of society, for up wards of Fit TV YEAHS. Its well-earned extensive sole has induced SPUEIOUB IMITATIONS, come of which in OUTWABD APrEABANCE so closely resemble the original as to have deceived many purchasers. The proprietor therefore feels it due to the public to gire a special caution against the use of SUCH IMITATIONS. Purchasers are therefore requested carefully to observe the four following diatinctive characteristics, without which none are genuine ;- — Ist—ln every case the words JOHE STEEDMAN, CHEMIST, "WALWOKTH SUitEEY, ero engraved ca the Government Stamp affixed to each packet. 2nd—Each Single Powder has , directions for the dose, and the words, John Steedman, Chemist, "Walwortb, Surrey, printed thereon. 3rd—The name Steedman is always spelt with two EE'b. 4th—The manufacture is carried on solely at Walworth, Surrey.

CONST/ITS — On all affections of the Nervous System) no matter from what caute arising). On all broken-down constitutions. On all diseases arising from early indiscretions. On Goat. On Bheumatiem. In these colonies those excesses which we have indulged in " hot youth " lell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repining! futile. The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the ilia we already have, for combatting the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterio^ as he can, still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and that sooner o? Inter his vices will discover him lo the world. Our Faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of our future offspring, and the duty, we owe to ouraehes forbids procrastination, and points out to us, not to wait till the ravages break out in.our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engnging with a confidential clerk; before employing a barrister, a careful man xnakea enquiries as their standing, their length of occupancy or residence; and, in the case of a legal'adviser, both as to his legal qualifications and cs to bis capabilities of transacting tho individual business ho consults him upon. Strange to say, howover, in tho selection of a medical man, tho sufferer frequently omits iheße necessary precautions and without regard to the fitness, qualification, experience and ability for t«:e particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the nearest man, whoao experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction. Is it astonishing that so many arc driven mod, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope and money ? Have I not for 'years pointed out to them that J, Dr L. L. h'inith, am the only legally qualified medical, man advertising in the Colonies i Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these veiy quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they are selling, —suoh as Phosphodyne Essence of 3-»jfe, &o.—and had them anulysed and found them to consist of "J Burnt Sugar and flavoring matter," and the certificates I have pbotjed to be all forgorips. It i» for this reason that I step out of the ethics of thu profession and advertise, to pivo those who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knoTring they con consult a legally j qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this hia especial study. Dr L. L. Smith is the only legally qualified medical man advertising, and he has been in Melbourne 24 year?, in full practice on NEBYQJJS .DISEASES LOSS OF POWER AND DEBILITY SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS WANT OF CONDITION GOUT AND BHEUMATISM.
