Medical SPECIALITY! SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nature—slie compels you to honour the acceptance. fTMIIRTY years since, when De Smith first " JL commenced practice here, it wss thought by medical men, that to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional many but this, like moat other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to jibe " infra dig " to tbat profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallemand and Ricord, in France, and Acton, in England, were for years cried-down by their medical brethren. Now and for many past years tbej have been looked up to, and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which theee gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. . Years since, it was the same with Dr. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemand and Ricord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, and make human beings ihvirile, 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 Forms of Affections. In all of these cases how necessary it is to have the Specialist who has devoted hiß whole lifetime to. th^"*tudying ard practising in this one branjoh of his pro* fession ? Hence, now, after so many years, all minutiae are familiar to him, and symptoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may not 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 recognised this fact, and Specialists now in everj branch—oculists, aurists, syphilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has tow 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 accoucl ement, 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. Db L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrenness, and Sterility, whose frameß and whose constitutions are chattered, to consult him as an expert—thirty (30) years practice in thk colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in ludia, China, Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man or woman re* quiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. As » Syphilographer no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affeotions— such as Nervous disease—no one in the pro* fession has enjoyed so much public confidence.
