Medical SPECIALITY I SPECIALISTS! Draw on Nature — she compels you to honour the acceptance. rpHIRTY years Bince, when De Smith first' a. commenced practice here, ie wss thought by medical men, that, to be a Specialist was derogatory to the professional man, but this, like most other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was foun^ rather to aid 'ban to be " infra dig " to that profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallemand and Ricord, in France, and Acton, in England, were for yesifß cried down by their medical brethren. Now and lor many past years they have been looked up to,- and quoted, by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the partioulor branch of the profession which these gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilaon, 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 Eicord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, aud make human beingß invirile, or which unfit them to qsrry on the purposes of their being, or j^fbich 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 his whole lifetime to the studying v' d practising in this one , branch of his pro* fession ? Hence, now, after so many years, all minutias 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 mußter of the Bubject. The medical profession—that is, the more liberal-minded of them—have likewise recognised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch —oculists, aurists, sypbilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, h|s i ow 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 aecoue' 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.

Da L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barren* ness, and Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions are shattered, to consult him as an expert —thirty (30) years practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man or woman requiring such still as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter. As a Syphilographcr no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affectionssuch as Nervous disease—no one in the profession has enjoyed so much public confidence.
