I Thirty years' since, when Dr SMITH first commenced practice here, it was thought by medical men, that to be t\ Specialist was derogatory to the profes! sional man, but this, like most other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be 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 prctessio-i wnich these gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, 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 Ricord) as a spcialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostraj tion, and make human beings invirile, of : which unfit them to carry on the purposes jof their being, or which 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 and practising in this one braech of his profession ? Hence, now, after so many years, all minutiae are familiar to him, nd symptoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may not strike the General Pra. titioner at once, now from constant prac tice and observation make Dr L. L SMITH master of the subject. The me2ftcal profession — that is, 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 now 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 accouchment, and the oculist wonld 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. As a Syphilographer no other medica man has been able to have such large ex experience as he possesses, and for other allied affections — such as Nervous disease — no one in the profession has enjoyed so much public confidence. Dr L. L. SMITH asks those who re quire treatment for Weakness, Prostra tion, Barrenness, and Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions are shat tered, 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 c^ims ought to bo sufficient to cause every man or woman requiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter Consultation Fee by Letter, £1. Medicines appropriately packed and for warded all over the civilised globe. Dr. L. L SMITH. Dr. L L. SMITH, 182 COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE. XXT ASTE PAPER ON SALE Offioe of this paper.
