Diseased Nature oftentimes break forth in strange eruptions."— Act iii Scene 1. m o'■ t. h.e p,u b L.T^e Some patients sufferirig' from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashful ness and modesty to personally consult a medical man — other patients have not the self-possession and coolness when in the consulting room, to accurately describe the>ir 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, apart ments, and with calm minds describe clearly each sympton of their case.' A .clear statement thus written, and laid before me, is far preferable in nervous diseases to a personal consultation. Where, how ever, a disease is of a peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necessary ; but my success in correspondence is so geeat, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter dtfring the last 32 years, not a single mistake has ever occurred j not a case has ever been made public-r-in fact, the very simplicity of my system of cor respondence prevents publicity. At -the same thrie medicines are selixt to my patients in such a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I brough joy to ? How many have been enabled to enter into the iriarriage state through consulting me? : ■ How many after marriage have privately consulted me arid 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 consulted me by letter! ' How many questions ' arise where' the family physician is; unable to; unravel, the case, and where often the patient- lingerl / 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 beypnd ( ,th6 curable stage, arid is left a hopeless wreck* ::. A letter written in the priyacy ; of the room, and dropped in the post box reaches i me quietly; the ariswer is returned as quietly and unostentatiously, and the patient without stepping from his chamber, except tp?post his letter, is by return of post and in full possession of the nature of his, case. ; His hopes are raised, his doubts removed, and he is comparatively a new man*; 1 in fact, in many cases, a new being alto gether. The only additiori to' the ordinary written- letter is the age, occupatiSn, habits and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of; Ll7 (one pound) must be enclosed, otherwise no ariswer wil obe- returned* ; ; ' ' There are thousands of, cases in daily life where a consultation with one at a distance, will remove by a single letter, r a great fear, a great care, and it often solve what appears as an impenetrable mystery Many a sad heart has been made joyfai on receipt of an explanatory letter from., me. ; ' .■ _' /' ■ r~jf To those who are about to marry^ would say consult me before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles^ and remove many unnecessary fears arid 1 pre) judices; to those, more especially wJio have suffered in early years from disease, or who have yielded to their passions : te these I say, at once, consult with me, do not tarry, delays are dangerous, arid 4s an expert, my time may not be -always a, your service, you can, by simply enclosing i one pound, have the benefit "of my experience in the Bame manner^ as if I;lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage i- of thorough privacy. —Yours, truly, LOUIS L. SMITH. Address — Dr. L L. SMITH, 182, COLLINS STREET EAST, . MELBOURNE. Consultation Fee by Letter, £1. Fee for personal Consultation, LI Is. The latter is inclusive of Medicine.
