CL««fcr.Un*rfi Medioai, "Diseased Nature oftentimes breaks forth ia strange eruptions." — Act in., Scene 1. ' ' TO THE PUBLIC. C<OME patients suffering from nervous affections •Jj are afraid, from sheer boshfulness andl" ! modesty,, to persosallt consult a medical manother patients havo not the self-possession and 1 i coolness when in the consulting room, to accu. rately describe their symptoms— their habits of I life, and the naf.cre of tte disease they suffer from. Let such persons (ho or she) sit quietly down in tho privacy of their own apartments, and with calm' minds describe clearly each symptom of their case ; a clear statement thus written, and laid before me, is far preferable in nervous diseases to a personal consultation. Where, however, a disease is of iv peculiar and exceptional character, a personal consultation may become necessary ; but my success in correspondence in so great, that of the thousands upon thousands whom I have treated by letter during the last 32 years, not a single mistakehas ever occurred, not a case has ever been made public— in fact, the very simplicity of my system of" correspondence prevents publicity. At the same time medicines ara sent to my patients in Buch a form as to defy detection. How many thousands have I not brought joy toPHow many have been enabled to enter into th* marriage state throngh consulting me? ! How many after morriag-e have privately con* j suited me and been blessed, and their married lives made fruitful and happy ? How many wasted ruined youths of both sexes have also been restored to health, and thanked their manhood, for having consulted me by letter ? j How many questions arise where the family physician is unable to unravel the case, and where' often the patient lingers on, not daring to tfiU his family medical adviser the nature of his complaint, until consumption, wasting, or mental diseases set in, and the sufferer gets beyond the curable stage, ! and is left a hopeless wreck? A letter written in tho privicy of the room and j dropped in the post-boz reaches me quietly ; the • answer is returned as quietly and unostentatiously,' i and the patient, without stepping from his chamber, i except to post his letter, is by return' of post put in , full possession of the nature of his case. His nopea ; are raised, bis doubts removed, and he is compara« ■ tively a new man ; in fact, in many cases, a new i being altogether. I The only addition to tho ordinary written letter ; tho age, occupation, habits, and symptoms nothing ■ more. The usual consultation fee of £1 (one pound} ! must be enclosed, otherwise no answer will be re« turned. There are thousands of cases in daily life where aconsultation with one at a distance, will remove by a single letter a great fear, a great care, and it often j solves what appears as an impenetrable mystery. j Many a sad heart has been made joyful on receipt of I an explanatory letter from me. j To those who aro about to,inarpy, I would Bay, ' consult mo before doing so, and thus prevent many after troubles, and remove many unnecessary fears and prejudices ; to those more especially who have suffered iv early years from disease, or who have yielded to their passions, to these I say at once, consult with mo, do not tarry, delays ore dangerous, nnd as an expert, my time may not be always at your service, you can, by simply enclosing onepound, hay« the benefit of my experience m the same manner as if I lived in your own town, and with the additional advantage of thorough privacy, —Yours trnly, LOUIS L.
