Medioal SPECIALITY 1 SPECIALISTS! Draw on Natnve—sJie compels you to honour the acceptance. mHIRTY years Bince, when Db Smith first A commenced practice here, it was thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional man, bat this, like most other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be " infra dig " to tbat profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallemand and Ricord, in France, and Aoton, in England, were for years cried down by their medical brethren. Now and foi many past years they have been looked up to, and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. Tears since, it was the same with Dr. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lalloniand and Ricord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affeotions, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, aud make human beiDgß invirile, or which unfit them to carry on the purposes of their being, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forma of Affections. In all of theße cases how necessary it is to have the Specialist who has devoted his whole lifetime to the studying at d practising iv this one branch of his profeseion? Hence, now, after so many year*. all minutiae are familiar to him, and symp. Toms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may tot strike the General Practitioner at once, now from constant practice and observation made Dr. L. L. Smith master of the subject. The medical profession—that is, the more liberal minded of them—have likewise recoenised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch—oculists, aurists, syphilic, mental diseases, cheßt diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has iow some member of the profession who devotes his time to that, and to none other. For instance, the 'chest doctor" would on no account attend an accouchement, and the oculist would not think of setting a broken leg ; but each would advise his patient to go to that doctor who is most famed for treating, the disease requiring special skill. v: /* * DeL.
