m =3 THE GREATEST WONDER OF MODERN TIMES! HOLLOWAY’S PILLS Persons suffering from weak or debilitated constitutions will discover that by the use of this wonderful medicine there is “ Health for all." The blood is the fountain of hfe. and its punty can be maintained by the use of these Sir SAMUEL BAKER, in his wont entitled “ The Nila Tributaries in Abyssinia," says, I ordered the dragoman Mahomet to inform the Fakey that I was a Doctor, and that I had the best medicines at the service of the sick, with advice gratis. In a short time I had many applicants, to whom I served out a quantity of Holloway’s Pills. These are ; most useful to an explorer, as possessing unmistakable purgative properties they create an undeniable effect upon the patient, which satisfies him of their value,* SIMPLE, SATE, AND CERTAIN 1 HOLLOWAYS OINTMENT Is a certain remedy for bad legs, bad breasts, and ulcerations of aH kinds. It acts miraculously in healing ulcerations, curing skin diseases, and in arresting and subduing all inflammations.* Mr, J. T. COOPER, in his account of his extraordinary travels In China, published in 1871,. says—" I had with me a quantity “of Holloway’s Ointment. I gave some to the people* “and nothing could exceed theur gratitude; and, in con- “ sec.!-:-. 2, milk, fowls, butter, and horse-feed poured “ ifi us, until at last a tea-spoonful of Ointment I “ w-:s v '1 a fowl and anv quantity of peas, and the ** d,' came so great that I was obliged to lock up “ the ; aiuaining stock."

S|M It h (the only LegaUy-qualifiedmedicalinan advertising), CONSULTS On all Affections of the Nervous System (no matter from what cause arising), On all broken-down constitutions, On all diseases arising from early india- | cretions; On Gout; on Rheumatism, In these colonies, those excesses which we have indulged in “hot youth” tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets are useless, our repinings futile. The sole idea should be the nhaupes we possess of remedying the ills we already have, or combating the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior as he can, still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and that sooner or later his vices will discover him to the world. Our faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare of our future offspring, and the duty we owe to ourselves forbid procrastination, and point out to us not to wait till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk, before employing a barrister, a careful man makes inquiries as to their standing their length of occupancy or residence; and, in the case of a legal adviser, both as to his legal qualifications and as to his capabilities of transacting the individual business be consults him upon. Strange to say, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits these necessary precautions ; and, without regard to the fitness, qualification, experience, and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, he consults the nearest man, whose experience and practice perhaps lie in quite an opposite direction. It is astonishing that so many are driven mad, ruined in health, and are -bankrupt in spirits, hope, and money ! Have I not for years pointed out to them that—“l, Dr. L. L. Smith, am the only legallyqualified man advertising in the colonies 1” Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed the various nostrums they are selling—such as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c.—and had analysed and found them to consist of “Burnt Sugar and flavouring matter,” and the certificates I have proved to be all forgeries 1 It is f*r this reason that I step out of the ethics of profession, and advertise, to give those who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they can consult a legally-qualified man, and one, moreover who has made this his especial study. Dr. L. L. Smith is the only legallyqualified medical man advertising, and he has been in Melbourne twenty-four years in full practice on Nervous Diseases Loss of Power and Debility Syphilitic Affections Want, of Condition - Gout and Bheumatism. Dr L, L. Smith can be consulted by letter—Pee, £l. Medicines forwarded to all the colonies. Dr. L. i- SMITH, 182 Collins street east) (Late the Residence of the Governor).
