IHedicai Diseased Nature oftentimes break forth in strange eruptions." — Act i Scene 1. mo THE PUBLIC. Some patients Buffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness 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 ) 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 apart ments, and with calm minds describe 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 during the last 32 years, not a single mistake has ever occurred, no, a case has ever been made public — in faolthe very simplicity of my system of cor , respondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients in such a form aa to defy dej tection. How many thousands have I brough joy to ? How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage Btate through consulting me? 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, foe having consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where the family physician is unable to unravel the case, and where often the patient linger! on, not daring to tell bis family medical adviser the nature of hia complaint, unti, consumption wasting, or mental diseases set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, and is left a hopeless wreck A letter written In the privacy of the room, and dropped in the post box reaches mequietly; the anawerla returned as quietly and unostentatiously, and the patient without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, 1b 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 fact, In man; oases, a new being alto gether. The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age, occupation, hablta and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) must be anclosed, otherwise no answer wiJg be returned. There are thousands of cases In dally life where a consultation with one at a distance, will remove by a single letter, a great fear, a great care, and it often solve" what appears as an Impenetrable myatery, Many a sad heart has been made joyfoi on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To those who are about to marry, would say consult me before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary feara and pre] judlcea ; 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 simply enclosing one pound, have the benefit of my ex^ perlence in the same manner, as if I lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.— Yours, truly.
