" Lives of groat men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing leave behind us Footprints ou the sands of Time." THE aWe is rpad with great int*rp«t by thovwmds of young men. It inspires thorn with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth thf-re is not snch a word as fail. Alan ! say many, this is correct, —is true with regard to the yoiuh who has never abused his strength — nnd to the man who has not been "passion's slave." But. to that youth— to that man who has wasted his vigour, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has friven unbridled license to his passion*, to him the above lines "are hut as a reproach. What Hope can he have ? What aspirations? What chance of leaving: his footprints on the sands of *ime ? For hin% alas ! there is nonsht but dark desnair and self-reproach for a lost-life ! For a roan to leave his footprints on the sands of timp, he must be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vignnrous. healthy mind, in a health body— the power to conceivp- -tho onerjry'to execute ! Bnt. look at our Australian youth ! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic pxpression. Note his d<*m»anour and conversation, and then say. Is that a mail to leave his footprints on the sands of time ! Do parents, medical men, and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause of this decay : and having done so. do they (ns a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advico of the medical man, who has made this branch of hk profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of theso cases ? Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one answer for himself . Parents see their propeny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old youns men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of life ; yet one word might, save them, one sound and vigourous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases, would, in most instances, succeed in warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated system to ito natural vigour, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, has made the deseases of youth and those arising therefrom his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and the Disease* incidental to Married Life. His is skill available to all— no matter how many hurdreds or thousands of miles distant His system of correspondence by letter is now ao well organised and known, that comment would be superfluous — (by this means many thousands of patients have been cured whom he has never seen and never known) ;and if is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he baa been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-six years in these Colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery has ever yet happened. "When medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same <aireful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany the latter, and a cure is effected without even the physician knowing who is his patient. To Men and "Women with broken-down Constitutions, the Nervous, the debilitated, and all suffering from any Disease whatever, Dr L. L. Smith's plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding as it does, the inconvenience and exptwe of a personal visit. , Address — DR L. L.
