Medical. f Diseased Nature oftentimes break forth in atrange eruptions." — Act i Scene 1. mO THE PUBLIC. Some patients Buffering trom nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness and modesty to personally consult a medical man — other patients have not the self-posseßslon and coohiesa 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 quietiy 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 Buccess In correspondence is bo geeat, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 years, not a Bingle mistake haß ever occurred, no, a case has ever been made public— in factthe very simplicity of my system of oor respondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines are sent to my patients In such a form as to defy de tection. How many thousands have I brongh joy to ? ■ How many have been enabled to enter into the marriage state 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 nave also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, foi 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 Mb complaint, unti. consumption wasting, or mental diseases set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, and is left a hopelesi wreok A letter written In the privacy of the room, and dropped In the poat box reaches me quietly; the anawerlareturnedaaquletly and unoßtentatloußly, and the patient without stepping from his chamber, except to post bis 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 anew man;! fact, In s many cases, a new being alto gether. * The only addition to the ordinary written letter is the age, oooupatlon, habits and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) must be enclosed, otherwise no answer wilj 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 mystery] Many a sad heart has been made joyfm on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To those who are about to marry, would aay consult mo before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles, and removo many unnecessary fears and pre] judices ; 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 exj perlence in the same manner, as If I lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy. — Youra, truly, LOUIS L.
