SOME patients suffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to peesowaixy consult a medical man—other patients hare not the solf-poseession and coolness when in the con* suiting room, to accurately describe their symptoms—their habits of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer from. Let such persons (he or she) sit quietly down in the privacy of their own apartments, and with calm minds describe clearly eaoh symptom of their case, a clear statement thus written i and laid before me is, far preferable in nebvoub diseases to a personal consults* tion. Where, however, a disease is of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necsssary; but my success in correspondence is so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I hare treated by letter during the last 82 years, not a single mistake has ever occurred, not a case has ever been made public—iv 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 hate I not brought joy toP How many hare been enabled to enter into the marriage state through consulting me P How mauy after marriage have privately consulted mo and been blessed and their married lives made fruitful and happy. I How many wasted ruined youth; of both sexes hare also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for haying 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 daring to tell his 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 post his letter, is by return of post put in full posses* sion 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, I a new being altogether. The only addition to the ordinary written I 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 lifo 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 ah explanatory letter from mo. 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 fears and prejudices; to those, more especially, who have suffered in early years from disease, or who have yielded to their passions. To these I say, at once, consult 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 privacy.—Yours, truly, LOUIS L. SMITH Address— DR L. L. SMITH. 182 COLLINS STREET BAST Melbourne. CONSULTATION ?SiS 3Y LETTER, £1 Fee for personal Consultation, £1 I. The latter ia inclusive of Medicine.
