SPECIALITY! SPECIALISTS! Draw on ITidvxe—slie compels- you to honour - , the acceptance. ' mHIRTY years Bince, when Dn Smith first 3 J_ commenced practice here, it wss thought. by medical men, that to be a Speoialist wat '• derogatory to the professional man, but this, n like most other innovations -in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to bo " infra dig " to that 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 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 theße gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, c the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her . Mnjesty. g Yearß since, it was the same with Dr. L, L. r Shite, of Melbourne, wbo practised (as did c Lallemand end Ricord) as a specialist. In all caseß of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, aud make human . beirjgs invirile, or which unfit them to carry i on the purposes of their being, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forms of d Affections. In all of these cases how neoea* y sary it is to have the Specialist who has cl devoted his. whole lifetime to the. studying is at d practising in this one branoh of his pro* fession ? -iHence, now, after so many yeara, all mmutise are familiar to, him, and symptoms which (it' is not unreasonable to suppose) may not strike the General Prootitioner at once, now from constant practice and observation made Dr. L. L. SiaTH master of tba subject. ~ ' The medical profession—that ia t the more liberal-minded of them—have likewise recognised this fact, and Specialists now in every branch—oculists, aurists, syphilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame, has row- some member of the profession who devotes hie time to that, and to none other. For instance, the " chest doctor" would on no account attend - an accouc! cment, and the oculist would not think of .setting a broken leg ; bat each would advice his patient to go to thai doctor who ia most famed for treating the disease requiring special skill. DbL. L. Smith asks those who require ' treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barren* neee, and Sterility, whose frames and wbosa constitutions are shattered, to consult him aa an expert—thirty (30) years practice in (hi* colony, witb a practice extending throughout not only the Colonies but in India, Chin*, Fiji, and even in England, he claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man or woman requiring such skill, as is alluded to above, to consult him either, personally or by letter.' As a Syphilographcrno other medical man has been able to have such large experience aa he possesses, and for other allied affections— such as Nervous disease—no one in the pro* fession has enjoyed; ao much public confidence.
