Boforo negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk, beforo employing a banister, a careful m an ma k e s enquiries as to their standbg, their length of occupancy or rcsidcnco; and, in tho case of a legal adviser, both as to bis legal qualifications and as to his capabilities of transacting the individual business he consults him upon. Strange to say, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits these necessary preoptions, and without regard to tho fitness, qualification, experience and ability or the particular ailment requiring treatment he consults the nearest man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quite an opposite direction.

It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertiseto give those who require the , service of ay 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 legally qualifi medical man advertising, and ho has been in Melbourne 24 years in full prajtice on lurvous Diseases Loss of Power & Debility Syphilitic Affections Want of Condition Gout and Rheumatism fin L.
