SOME patients suffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to pbbsokaiit consult a medical man—other patients have not the self-possession and coolness when in the consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms —their habits of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer from. Let suoh persons (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly eaoh symptom of their caee, a clear statement thus , written, and laid before me is, far preferable in NBBYOua diseases to a personal consultstion. Where, however, a disease is of a j peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necsssary ; but my success in correspondence is bo great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I hare treated by letter during the last 32 years, not I a single mistake Las ever occurred, not a case , has ever been made public—in fact the very simplicity of my system of correspondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I not brought joy to ? How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage state through consulting me ? How mauy after marriage have privately consulted me and been blessed and their married livea made fruitful and happy. How many wasted ruined youths of both sexes bave also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where the family physician is unable to unravel the case and where often the patient lingers on, not during to tell bis family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption wasting, or mental diseases, get in and the sufferer gets beyond the curiable stage, aud is left a hopeless wreck. A letter written in the privacy of the room and dropped. in the post box reaches me quietly ; the answer is returned os quietly and unostentatiously, and tho patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, is by return of post put in full possession of the nature of his case. His hopes are rrised his doubts removed, and he is comparatively a new man; in fact, in many oases, a new being altogether. The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age occupation, habits and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of £1 (one pound) must be enclosed, otherwise no answer will be returned. There are thousands of cases in daily life where a consultation with one at a distance will remove by a single letter a great fear, a great care, and it often solves what appears as an impenetrable mystery. Many a sad heart has been made joyful on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To those who are about to marry, I would say consult me before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fearß and prejudices; to those, more especially, who have suffered in early years from, disease, or who. have yielded to their passions. To these I Bay, at once, coneulfc with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, and as an expert, my time may not be always at your service, you can, by ismply enclosing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if I lived in your town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privaoy.—Yours, truly, LOUIS L. SMITH. Address— DEL. L. SMITH. 182 COLLINS STREET EAST Melbourne. CONSULTATION FEE BY LETTER, £1 Fee for. personal Consultation, £1 1. The latter is inclusive of Medicine.
