Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth in strange eruptions."—Act iii, Scene 1. TO THE PUBLIC. SOME patientß suffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to PERSONALLY consult a medical man—other patients have not the self-postession 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 such persona (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly each symptom of their case, a clear statement thus written, and laid before me is, far preferable in nervous diseases to a personal consultation. Whore, however, a disease i«" of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become, nocsseary; but my •uccesß in correspondence is so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 years, not a single mistake has 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 P How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage state through consulting me P How many after marriage have privately consulted me and been blessed and their married lives made fruitful and happy. How many wasted ruined youths of both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having coneulted me by letter. How many questions arise whpre the family physician io unable to unravel the case and where often the patient lingers on, not daring to tell bis family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption wasting, or mental diseases, set in and the sufferer gets beyond the curiable stage, and 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 as quietly and unostentatiously, and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, except to pcßt his letter, is by return of post put in full possession of the nature of his case. Hib hopes are rrised his doubts removed, and he is comparatively a new man; in fact, in many cases, a new being altogether. The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age occupation, habitß 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 sey consult me before doing bo, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices; to those, more especially, who have suffered in early years from disease, or who have yielded ito their passions. To these I say, at once, comulfc with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, and as an expert, my time may not be always at your service, you can, by iemply enclosing one pound, have the benefit of my experience in the same manner as if I lived in your town, and with the additional adrautnge of thorough privacy.—Youre, truly, LOUIS L, SMITH.
