SPECIALTY! SPECIALISTS! DRWV ON NATTJKE — SHIO OOMPKLS YOU TO HOSOIi THE .VCCEPrANCE. , r r*nißTY year 3 siDce, whea Dr. &MlTH 'first I i commenced practice here, it was thou>: ht by medical men, tbat to be a Kpecinlist was derogatory to the professional man, bat this like most other innovations in scientific and liy matteri. was found rather to aid than to be " infra dig" to that profession, wherein the speciality was practised. Lallcmand and Ricord, in France, and Acton, in England, were for years cried down by their medical brethren. New and for many past years they have been looked up to, and quoted, byi every man who pretends to have any knowledge ot the particular branch of the profession which these gentlemen special'y devoted themselves to. It was the same with Erasmus Wilson, the " Skin Doctor," recently knighted by Her Majesty. Years since, it was the same with Dr. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, who practised (as did Lallemnnd and Ricord) as a specialist. In all cases of diseases and habiis which produce symptoms of Nervous Affections, of Skin Eruptions, of Prostration, and make human beings invirile, or which unfit them to' carry on the purposes of their being, or which de-monstratcs-itself, ou the other hand, in Kruptivo Diseases and Secondary Forms of Affections. In all of thess cases how necessary it is to have the Specialist who has devoted his whole lifetime to the studying and practi»iog in this one branch of his profession 1 Hence, now, after so many years, all minuire Jare familiar to him, and symptoms which (il is not unreasonable to suppose) m^y not sirike the General Practitioner at on>.e, now from constant practice and observation make Dr. L, L. Smith master of the subject. The medical profession — tbat is, the more -liberal-minded. of them— have likewise recognised this fact, tho Specialists now in every braach — oculists, 'auristsj syphilic, mental diseases, chest diseases, and in fact every portiou of the human frame, has now some member ol the profession who devotes his time to that and to noue other. For Instance, the "chest doctor" would on no account attend anaccouchment, and the oculist would not think oi setting a broken lesj; but each would advise his patipnfi'ta'go'io tli * t doctor who is most famed for treating i,he disease requiring special skill. ' Dai L..JU. Smith asks those who require' treatment for Weakuess, Prostralioa, Bairenness, and Sterility, whose frames and whose constitutions me shattered, to consult him as nn expert — thirty (30) years practice in this colony, with a piactice extending 1 throughout not only the Colonies but in India,, China, Fiji, and even in England, he 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 Syphilographer no othermedical man has beeu able to have such large experience ■ fb he possesses, and for other allied affections — such o£ Nervous diseases -no one in the profession has enjoyed so much public confidence, DR. L. L. SMITH. Consultation Fee by Letter, £1. Medicines appropriately packed and forwarded all over the civilised globe. DR. L. L.
