It inspires them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is not such a word as fail. Alas ! »ay many, this in correct, —is true with regard to the youth who has never abused his strength — andto the man who has not been " passion's •lave." But to that yeuth— to that man who has wasted his vigour, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has <- given unbridled license to his passions, to him the above lines are Wfc as a reproach. What Hope can he have ? What aspirations? What chance of leaving bis footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas ! there is nought but dark despair and s*4f -reproach for a lost-life ! ■ For a nian to leave his footprints on the sands —o!Ltiniff,.he_inußt be endowed with a strong brain ; , and nervous power. He must possess a sound, yigourous, healthy mind, in a health body — the power to conceive- -the onerpy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth 1 See the emaciated —form, - the. vacant look, the listless hesitating •fnanner, the nervous distrust, .the senseless, Almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say. Is that a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time !

Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one answer for^himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old young 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 its natural vigour, and ; " ipttsure a joyous and happy life.
