HEALTH AND CHEERFULNESS. HOLLOWAY’S TILL S, SOLD BY MR. SAMUEL BROWN, SOLE AGENT AT AUCKLAND. THE EXCITING CAUSE OF SICKNESS. r |pTIE blood is the life-sustaining agent. It furnishes i the components of flesh, hone, muscle, nerve, an j integument. The stomach is its manufactory, the arteries and veins its distributors, and the intestines the channels through which the waste matter rejected iti ns production is expelled. Upon the stomach, the circulation, and the bowels, these Fills act simultaneously, relieving indigestion, purifying the fluids, and regulating both the secretions and the excretions. THE NATIONAL COMI’LAINT. Dyspepsia is the most common disease -among all classes in this country. It assumes a thousand shapes, and is the primary source of innumerable and dangerous maladies; but whatever its type or symptoms, however obstinate its resistance to ordinary prescriptions, it yields readily and rapidly to this searching and unerring remedy. SICK HEADACHE WITH LOSS OF APPETITE. A certain cure for headache, loss of appetite, and low spirits. These Pills may he taken without danger from wet or cold, and require no restraint from business or pleasure. They strengthen the stomach, and promote a healthy action of the liver, purifying the blood, cleansing the skin, bracing the nerves, and invigorating the system. DROPSICAL SWELLINGS AND TURN OP LIFE. This is the most distressing period in woman’s history, it destroys thousands, the whole of the gross humours collect together, and like a tide sweep awav health and life itself, if not timely and powerfully checked. The most certain remedy for ail these dangerous symptoms is Holloway’s Pills. Armed with this great antidote, the fiery' ordeal is passed through, and the sufferer is once more restored to the possession of unimpared health. These Pills are equally efficacious in all female complaints, and obstructions at the dawn of womanhood. DISEASES OF THE HEAD AND HEART. Why' arc these diseases so fatal? The answer is self-evident because the first disordered action is neglected, or the means for its rectification are misapplied. Neither need be the case at the present, day’, when these excellent Pitts can be purchased everywhere, at a price which places them within the reach of everybody'. No misapplication can occur if the printed directions are properly attended/ to, as they invariably address themselves to the seat of the affliction, without deranging those organs which arc already acting healthily'. Holloway’s Pills arc the best purifiers, and therefore the surest proventatives of serious maladies; of which, if they be already established, they then become the most unremitting extirpators. NERVOUS DISORDERS. Any’ derangement of these delicate organs affect disastrously both the body and the mind. To the nervous invalid, Holloway’s Pills are an article of vital necessity. They impart tone and vigour to the internal organs, and consequently to the nervous system, which pervades and connects them. Hence their marvellous cures of hysteria, low spirits, spasms, fits, headache, nervous twitchings, and other kindred complaints, which are all radically removed by the use of these invaluable Pills. N.B.—Directions for the guidance of patients, in every disorder arc affixed to each box. “ Though fools spurn Hymen’s gentle powers, Wc who improve his golden hours By sweet experience know That marriage, rightly understood, Gives to the tender and the good A paradise below.”— Cotton. npHEEE are many thousands of persons who pine away iL in this colony, and allow the canker worm of» disease to eat into them, because they’ dare not confide in their medical adviser. It is not in every case that they' doubt the skill of the medical man with whom they have been constantly in communication, but it is that they inwardly shrink from exposing their weakness to him. How many are there who have been under treatment for y’ears for a disease which has puzzled the different surgeons of the day, and the origin of which cannot even be surmised by medical men, still one treatment is persevered with after another in the vain hope of overcoming the affection. The patient receives no benefit from the various treatments ; lie languishes, his mind gives way’, ho becomes hypochondriacal, avoids society', loses all hope, and if he docs not become insane, he pines and dies. What lias been the cause of this ? Simply, in the first place, want of confidence in his medical adviser on the part of the poor unfortunate victim of a debasing passion, so that the patient will not tell how ho himcaifso’ or cue maibuiy 1 , nl- uuia' qi.cncU u-l aUiTtroi: pfaefieem these unhappy cases in the medical man (otherwise skilful) who is thereby unable to discriminate the cause, and therefore unable to cure these patients “ Who woo the means of weakness and debility.” Dr. L. L. SMITH, it is well known, lias given nearly the whole of his time to the study of these diseases. He has had large practical experience in the treatment of them, even before his arrival in this colony. He was pupil, and afterwards assistant, to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell (since dead), and during eleven years in this colony’ lie has continually practised in this branch of his profession. Dr. L. L. Smith docs not require to vaunt or praise himself hero; he certainly is an advertiser, and he does not deny the fact. He considers it better to openly do so, and pay for it, than humbug about as tbe majority of bis medical brethren do to obtain a practice. He thinks it more honourable and more straightforward. But without praising himself, he may point with a becoming pride /it the number of cases continually passing in review before him. and the success which has accompanied his practice. One fact alone is worth more than a thousand assertions. .He has been eleven years in an advertising practice; during the whole of that time, he asks, has there ever been one case of mil praxis or want of knowledge, or carelessness in his profession, that has ever been brought against him, much less sustained? If not, can the public be any longer gulled by the sophistries of those whose interests it is to promulgate and circulate reports prejudicial to him in order to obtain a modicum of practice? But not only does Dr. Smith glance at the above with pride, but he challenges openly any one to say that lie over betrayed, by word, look or deed, bis patient’s secret. The honor and confidence of his patient lias been held as sacred by Dr. Smith. The thinking portion of the public can imagine what must have been during the last eleven years, andls still the extent of the practice of Dr. L. L. Smith, and yet he fearlessly asks can any man point and state “ you betrayed the confidence I reposed in you in the consuiting room.” »To those, then, who shrink from exposing their disease to their medical man, to those who are nervous, debilitated, and physically exhausted, but who would rather die than confide personally their case to their medical man, Dr. Smith’s system of correspondenfce by letter is admirably adapted, inasmuch in confiding in Dr. L. L. Smith they have eleven years’ guarantee of honour, skill, ability, practice in this colony in this particular branch of his profession, and a guarantee of the sacredness of bis regard to reticence and the trust reposed in him ; and thirdly, they have all the advantage of a consultation without the inconi enience of a personal interview, and the shame that many feel in detailing their case to a fellow mortal face to face. Dr. L. L. Smith can be consulted by letter. Fee £l. Dr. L. L. Smith is at home for consultation daily, punctually, mornings nine till eleven ; evenings six till half-past eight, at his consulting rooms, 192 and 194, Bourke-street East, Melbourne.

Smith’s out-door visiting fee is £1 Is., which must in all cases be prepaid, otherwise Dr. Smith will not visit. N.B. —Dr. L. L. Smith possesses extensive practical medical experience m the diseases of married life, uerr ous affections and debility, midwifery, and the diseases of women and children. Dr. L. L. SMITH, 192 and 194, Bourke-street East, Melbourne.
