" Lives of great men all remind us, fe We can make our lives sublime " And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time." THE above is read with great interest by thousands of young men. It inspires them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is noi such word as faiL Alas! say many, this is correct, — is true with re* gard to the youth who has never abused his strength— and to the man who has not been "passion's slave." • t! ' '"' '' .'' But to that youth — to that man, who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet alluremente of vice, who has given unbridled license to his passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. What Hops, can he have? What, aspirations? What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas ! there is nought but dark despair acd self-reproach for a, lost life. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be endowed with a eirong brain and nervous power. He must possess a Bound, vigorous, healthy mind, in a healthy body — the power to conceive— the energy to execute ! But look at our Austra* lian youth ! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating mannerj the nervous distrust, the senseless, aimer* idiotic, expression. Note his demearc and conversation, and then say, "Is that * man to leave his footprints on the sands time?" Do parents, medical men and educator* youth, pay sufficient attention to this seb' ject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause of thiß decay ; and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek . the killed advice of the medical man, who has made this branch of his prof ession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cases Reader, what iB your answer ? Let each on answer for himself. Parents see their pro geny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old young men, broken down n health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of life ; yet one word might save them/ one sound and vigorous 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 vigor, rand ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr L. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases 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 Diseases incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all I—no1 — no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles dis* tani. His' system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known that comment would be superflontf {by this means many thousands of patients have been cured whom he has never see and never known) ; and it is carried o' with such judicious supervision that th<ugh he has been practising this branch of his pro f ession for 26 years in these Colonies, no single instance of accidential discoyery , has ever yet happened. When Medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered Plain and clear directions aucempany^kese latter, and a cure is efiepted without eyen 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 expanse of . a personal visit. ' • Address— DR. L.
