Uledical.. Diseased Nature oftentimes break forth in strange eruptions."— Act ;iii Scene 1. m O T fl E PUBLIC Some patients suffering 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 tlie ' consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms— their habits 'of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer'from 1 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, howf 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 'l 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 corj respondence 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 brough joy to?
