Medical Specialty ! Specialists ! Braw on Nature : she compels you to honour the acceptance. nnHIRTY years since, tthen Db Smith first JL commenced practice here, it was thought by medical raca that to be a specialist was derog^fcory to the professional man, but this, like laOft other innovations in scientific and lay matters, was found rather to aid than to be "infra dig." to that profession wherein the specialty was practised. Lallemand And Kicord iv France, Bad Action in England, were for yrars cried down bjr their medical brethren. Now and for many years past they have been looked up to and quoted by every man who pretends to have any knowledge of the particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen specially devoted themselves to. It was the same with VfrAsmus Wilson, the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by her Majesty, Years since it was the Basic with Dr L. L. Smith, of Melbourne* who practised (as did Lallemand and fllcord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habits which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, Prostration, and make human beings invirile, or which unfit them to carry on the purposes of their being, or which demonstrates itself, on the other hand, in Eruptive Diseases and Secondary Forms ©I A&ections; in all of these cases how necessary It is to have the Specialist who has devoted his whole lifetime to tho studying ftnd practising m this ohb branch of his profession. Hence no\r» after so many years, all minutiae are familiar to him, and 6ymtoms which (it is not unreasonable to suppose) may not strike the general practitioner at once, now t from constant practice and observation, tHake Db L. L. Smith master of the subjeot. The medical profession — that is, the more liberal-minded of them— have likewise recoguised this faot, and Specialists now in every^ branch — oculists, aurists, syphilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portion of the human frame t has now some membet of the profession who devotes his time to that and to none other. For instance, the " chest doctor " Would on no account attend an accouchement, and tho oculist would not think of setting a broken leg ; but each would advise his patient to go to that doctor who is most famed for ttealiug tho disease requiring special skill. Db L. L. Smith asks those who require treatment for Weakness, Prostration, Barrenness, uml Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions nro shattered, to consult him as an expert. Thirty (30) years' practice in this colony, with a practice extending throughout not only the colonies, but in India, China, Fiji, and even in England, his claims ought to be sufficient to cause every man or woman requiring such skill as is alluded to above, to consult him either personally or by letter* As a Sphilographcr, no other medical man has been able to have such large experience as he possesses, and for other allied affections— fuch as Nervous Diseases — no one in the profession has enjoyed bo much publio confidence.
