DR. L. L. SMITH
Has devoted himself for twenty years m the colony
to the practice of this branch of his profession, while
previously, m England, he was the pupil of and prac-
tised with the celebrated Dr. R. T. Culverwell, the
only medical practitioner who ever exclusively
adopted this as the sole branch of his profession,
DR. L. L. SMITH hereby informs the public that
he is the only Legally Qualified Medical Man in this
specialty of his profession, that others advertising
are unqualified, and that, therefore, in pretending to
bequalified.areobtamingmonej under falsepretences,
DR. L L SMITH also warns the public against
the quackeries advertised. If the taker of any of
these advertised nostrums escape with his life, or his
system be Dot thoroughly and irreparably under-
mined by them, he may look upon himself as the
most fortunate mortal,
DR. L. L. SMITH has been applied to by so many
unfortunate broken-down young-old-men, utterly
crushed in spirit, ruined in body, and filched in
pocket, that he deems it a duty to publish this to the
world.
Those men and women who have been the victims
of unprincipled charlatans frequently seek that re-
covery which is often beyond DR. SMITH'S control.
When will the public understand that it is to their
interest to consult a duly qualified medical man, who
has made this his sole stud}, rather than apply to
a number of ignorant impostors, who merely harp
and prey upon their pockets and health ?
DR. L SMITH has always stated that to warn the
public of these quicksands is his chief reason for
advertising.
In all cases of nervous debility, lowness of spirits,
loss of power, pimples on the forehead, lassitude,,
inaptitude for business, impotency, drainage from
the sj stem, and the various effects of errors
of youth and bloodpoisomng from diseases
previously contiacted, DR. L L. SMITH in-
vites sufferers to consult him, as he tías no
hesitation in stating that no medical man, either
here or in England, has had the opportunities of
practice and extraordinary experience which he has
had. Therefore, those who really desire to be treated
by one who is at the head of his profession m this
branch of medical practice should lose no time in
seeking his advice. Nor should anyone marry with-
out first consulting him.

germs of complaints which consign tens of thousands
to an early grave.

SICK HEADACHE.
No organ m the human body is so liable to dis-
order as -the liver, and none is more apt, when
neglected, to become seriously diseased. Remember

warns us that digestion is not proceeding properly,
that Holloway's Pills regulate every function, give
strength to everj organ, speedily remove all cause»
of indigestion, bile, and sick headache, and effect a
permanent cure

re-establish the digestion, regulate all the secretions,
strengthen the nervous system, raise the patient's
spirits, and bring back the frame to its pristine
health and vigour.
