Our regrets are useless, our repinings futile The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the ills we already have of ' combating the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as (rood an exterior as he ; can, still is the victim conscious that he is a living lie, and that sooner or later his vices will discover him to the world. Our Faith, our obligations to society at large, the welfare ofx our future offspring, and the duty we owe to ourselves forbids procrastination, and points out ' : ' to us, not to wait till the ravages break out in '' our constitutions. Boforo negociating with a merchant/before '" ungating with' a confidential clerk, before'" employing a banißter, a careful man makes enquiries as to their standug, their length of occupancy or residence; and, in the case of a legaladviier, both as to his 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 precautions, and without regard to the 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. " Is it astonishing that so many are driven mad, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope and money?

It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertise, to give those who require the service of' ray branch an opportunity of knowing they can consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who has made this his especial study. • Dr L.
