SMITH (The only legally qualified medical man advertising) CONSULTS— On all affections of the Nervous System, no matter from what cause arisiDg On all broken-down constitutions On all diseases arisiDg from early indiscretions On Gout On Rheumatism. In these Colonies, those excesses which wo have indulged in "hot youth " tell upon us with fearful interest. Our regrets aro useless, our repining futile. The sole idea should be the chances we possess of remedying the Mb we already have^or combating the effects likely to result. Hide it as he may, put on as good an exterior os 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 of our future offspring, and the duty, we owe to ourselves forbid procrastination, and point out to us, not to waib till the ravages break out in our constitutions. Before negotiating with a merchant, before engaging with a confidential clerk ; before employing a barrister, a careful man makes enquiries aB to their standing, their length of occupancy or residence ; and, in the case of a legal adviser, both as toj his legal qualifications and as to his capabilities of transacting the individual business hecrnsults him upon. Strange to cay, however, in the selection of a medical man, the sufferer frequently omits these necessary precautions, and without regard to the fitness, |qualificotion, experience and ability for the particular ailment requiring treatment, ho consults the nearest man, whose experience and practice, perhaps, lies in quito an opposite direction. Is it astonishing that so many are driven mad, are ruined in health, and are bankrupt in spirits, hope and money ? Havo I not for years pointed out to them that I, Dr L. L. Smith, am the only legally qualified medical man advertising in the Colonies ? Have I not also prosecuted, at my own expense, these very quacks, and exposed tho various nostrums they are selling— such as Phosphodyne, Essence of Life, &c— and had them analysed and found them to consist of "Burnt Sugar and flavouring matter," and the certificates I 1 aye proved to be all forgerieß. It is for this reason that I step out of the ethics of the profession and advertise, to give thoso who require the services of my branch an opportunity of knowing they ca^j consult a legally qualified man, and one, moreover, who haß made fchis his especial study.

Smith iB the only legally quolified medical man advertising, and ho has been in Melbourne 24 years, in full practice on NERVOUS DISEASES LOSS OF POWER AND DEBILITY SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS WANT OF CONDITION GOUT AND RHEUMATISM.
