A WARNING. DO you suffer from Physical Incapacity ? Are you suffering from nervous debility ? Do you suffer from a set of symptoms nearly akin, more or less, to the following : —A pretty fair condition of health, not yet positively ill, but a feeling upon you that you are not quite right, a malaise ; a tendency to despondency ; a slight occasional loss of memory ; sometimes a weakness across the small of the back and loins ; on waking, a feeling as if unrefreshed ; a general oppression ; a want of pluck, as it were ; less desire for business than formerly, and you are troubled with a certain feeling of nervousness, a loss of power ? If you are to be warned in time, you have how the means and opportunity of being restored to health. It is at this stage that your disease, by a timely application of remedies and regimen, can be eradicated, and your system invigorated, your manhood restored to that state that you may and can fulfill the duties required of you by your social and moral being. Be warned also to whom you apply. There are two rocks upon which you may split—the one being the legally qualified practitioner, who, although fully qualified by his knowledge of his profession to treat the various general ailments of humanity, yet is totally ignorant (as the majority of them unfortunately are) of this peculiar branch of his science, the reason being that he has never made it his peculiar study ; and the other rock is the blatant charlatan and quack, who plays on the pockets and lives of his victims. These individuals assume titles to which they have not the slightest pretension, and are for the most part men even without the ordinary common rudiments of education, who, by their force of impudence and advertising, irritrievably ruin the small remains of health of the poor deluded victims. Dr Tj. L SMITH, who lias been established since 1851, has stepped perhaps, he acknowledges, out of the routine of his profession by thus advertising ; but he deems it better to give an unfortunate fellow being, who lias erred (once perhaps only in the course of his life) an opportunity of at least being capable of discriminating for himself, of ascertaining for himself out of the mass of charlatanism, at least one practitioner who has devoted his time, money, and study to this peculiar branch of his profession, and one who is a legally qualified practitioner and member of the Medical Board of Victoria. Dr L. L. SMITH, has now been in practice in Victoria for the last fourteen years. He was formerly a pupil and practised under the celebrated Dr Culverwell, of London, so well known for his skill in the treatment of those diseases for which Lallemand, Rieard, and himself were contemporaries. Dr L. L. Smith has the most exetnsive practice, extending through the whole of Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. Dr L. L. Smith lias now established this extensive practice through his admirable system of corresponding by letter. By enclosing a One pound bank note, an answer and consultation is immediately returned by next post. Three hours in the day are continuously devoted to this branch of Dr. Smith’s practice. Dr L. L. SMITH’S establishments are well know to all visitors to Victoria. His extensive library for reference has even been praised by the public press, His extensive anatomical museum is well known, and Dr L. L. Smith’s reputation alone as a lecturer on physiological and anatomical subjects is sufficient security to the public that those who intrust their cases in his hands will, to say the least, have a guarantee that they place them in the care of one who is well acquainted with the anatomy and physiology of the human body and its mysterious workings, and therefore, irrespective of his reputation for curing these disease, he is at least a competent person to attempt the cure of them. Dr L. L. Smith takes the greatest precautions to avoid publicity being given as to recognition from whence the correspondence comes. He has been now fourteen years in practice'in Victoria, and not one single case has ever been made public. Dr L. L. Smith can be consulted by letter?— fee £l. Dr L. L. SMITH, L.S.A., first prizeman in the principles and practice of medicine ; first price for surgery ; first prize for anatomy and physiology, Westminster Hospital ; first prizeman for chemistrj ; first certificate for botany ; and first certificate for midwifery ; and member of the Medical Board of Victoria. Dr L. L. SMITH in order to suit the convenience of the increased number of his up-country patients, begs leave to announce that he now resides at his place of business, 192, and 194, Bourlce-street east, thus enabling tliose to consult him who cannot call during his advertised hours. Strangers visiting Melbourne can find the Dr at the Surgery, right-of-way, next Polytechnic. New additional separate waiting rooms have been built. The following Works by Dr L. L. Smith can be obtained direct from the author, on enclosing stamps ; Gd extra, postage free : Impotance and Sterility, 4s 6d ; Obstacles to Marriage, 4s 6d ; Means of Prolonging l ife, 2s 9d ; How to get Pat and How to Get Thin, Is ; &c., &c.
