A WARNING. " Ills small at first, grow larger from delay, And slowly eat their sad and cankering way.; Thus by excessive throes the frame is torir, Till health and peace of- mind alike are gone." j Ida. Dabwis. THE writer desires, nay, feels it - his duty, ta state, that he bas given a large amount of I time to the study of the symptons and treatment of | those diseases which, from a feeling of delicacy, medical men have neglected iv their studies. It ti a matter to be regretted tbat the public nt large are so little acquainted with the- anatomy of the more secret parts of our organisation, and yetj when we consider how much misery is entailed on mankind by this waut of knowledge, it must suggest itself to tbe mind of every reflective person as being of the greatest import. Man cannot err or committ any offsne* te tke laws of Nature without Dame Nature seoner or later resenting the affront, and when ibe does she pays her debt back with frightful interest. Wheu a studsut at Paris Dr. L. L. Smith had ample opportunities of making thesa diseases his. peculiar study. Again, Dr. Smith was assistant for some years to the celebrated Dr. Culverwell, of Louden. On the continent all morbid feelings of delisacy iv this matter, all foolish prudery, are banished, and medical men address themselves to tbe subject, and make these important diseases their especial study. Dr. L. L. Smith has, in like manner, devoted many years to the study of nervous debility proceeding from indiscretions, sterility, and also in all those cases which render married life a burdea and a curse rather than a round of continual happiness. M any practitioners may be well read up (ia theory) in those diseases, but the majority of thes* cases require the attention, or, at least the advice, of oue whom it is well known must have a thorough. practical knowledge of them and not enly a practical knowledge of the disease, but also a practical knowledge ofthe influence of this climate on diseases of females, which latter is most essential to their treatment. Dr. Smith has been now nearly eleven years practising in this colony. As a general practitioner his reputation has spread throughout the whole ofthe, neightojing colonies. He has, however, more particularly devoted his attention to the diseases of women and children, diseases of the .eye, dyspepsia, syphilitic aud nervous affections, disease of the skin, and to the treatment of those diseases which have the symptoms enumerated in the commencemeat of this notice.CONSULTING FEE BY LETTER, £L. . Dr. L. L. Smith can be consulted personally daily, mornings and evenings. Consultation fee (including medicine), 10s. Consulting Rooms, 192, 1925, and 194 Bourkt Street, east, Melbourne. QUINTESSENCE OF IAMAICA , GINGER AND CAMOMILE. TITILKINSON'S (lare Bridge's) Quintessence Vt of Jamaica Ginger and Camomile. Ginger has long been deservedly known as an excellent domestic' medicine, and, combined with Camomile, it is the most efficient Stomachic Tonic known; for whilst the Ginger relieves the stomach from Distension and Flatulency, arising from impaired digestion, the Camomile strengthens the coats of tht . stomach, and by that means gives a it healthy and invigorating tone. So highly concentrated is this preparation (a few drops being a dose), it is unimpaired by nge or climate, and consequently well adapted for exportation. Full directions are enclosed with each bottle for the following complaints : Flatulency, or, restoring tone to the stomach, Cholera, Dysentery, Sec, Gout, Rheumatism, Spasais, when the stomach feels distended after eating, for asEisting digestion, nervous affections, &c, &c. No Englishman in India, or those resident ia Tropical Climates should ever be without this valuable preparation, as in numerous cases, whea medical men are not always at band, a dose or twe has checked, and fiequently cured most violent at- - tacks of jllness'inciuental to those climates.
