Medical. Diseased Nature ottentlmea bre . forth in strange eruptions."-- Actlil a Scene 1. mo the p v b '.ijFa o. Some patients Buffering from nervous affections are afraid from sheer bashfulness arid modesty to personally consult a medical man— other patients have not the self-poaseaslon and coolness when In the consulting room, to accurately describe their symptoms— their hablta of life, and the nature of the disease they suffer from! Let such persona (he. or she) alt quietly down in the privacy of their own apartE ments, and with calm minda describe clearly each sympton of their case. A clear statement thus written, and laid before me, la fa preferable In nervous diseases to a personal consultation. Where, howfl ever, a d°sease la of a peculiar and excep tlonal ohlaraoter, a personal conanltatlc: may become necessary ; bat my success n correspondence la so geeat, that of the thousanda npon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 yean, not a single mistake has ever occurred, no acase has ever been made public— in fact, the very simplicity of my system of reapondence prevents publiolty. j; At the same time medicines ate *&* £0 my patients In such a form as to defj &sf~\ tection. How many thousands have I brongh joy to ! How many have been enabled to entei nto the marriage state through consulting me ? . . How many after marriage have privately A consulted me and been blessed, k^jß their married lives made fruitful and happy. How many wasted mined youtha both sexes have also been restored' health, and thanked their manhood, 'foi having consulted me by letter. How many questions arise where the family physician la unable to unravel the oase, and where often the patient llngerl on, not daring to tell his family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, nnth consumption wasting, or mental dlaeaaet set In, and the sufferer gets beyond the ourable stage, and Ia left a hopetai wreck . , A. letter written In the privacy of the room, and dropped In the poat box reaches mequletly; the answerlaretornedaaqnletly and unostentatiously, and the patient without stepping from his chamber, except to post his letter, la by return of post and in foil possession of the nature of his ease. 'His hopeß are raised, his donb'ts removed and he Ia comparatively a new man ; aot, In many oases, a new being alto gether. The only addition to the ordinary written letter la the age, occupation hablta and symptoms, nothing more. The usual consultation fee of LI (one pound) mast be enclosed, otherwise no answer wili be returnee Thereare thousands of cases In daily life where a consultation with one at a dietanoe, will remove by a single letter, a great fear, a great care, and It often solve what appears as an Impenetrable myatery'i Many a sad heart has been made joyftu on receipt of an explanatory letter from me. To tnoae who are about to marry, would Bay consult me before doing ao, and thus prevent many after troublea, add re] move many unnecessary fears and prej judlces ; 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 aa an expert, my time may not be always at your service, yon can, by almply enoloalng one pound, have the benefit of my exj perience In the same manner, as If I lived In your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy.— Youri. truly, LOUIS L.
