" Lives of great men all remind us, ' We can make our lives sublime And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the Bands of time." npHE above is read with great interest by X thousands of young men. It , inspire! them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Alas] say many, this is correct, — is true with re* gard to the youth who has never abased his „ strength — and. to the man who haa not been "passion's slave.", v / Btit to that youth — to that man; whohas , < wasted his vigor, 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 but »s a reproach. What Hope can he have ? What aspirations? What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas 1 there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lost life. For a man to leave his footprints on the sandß of time, he must be et lowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must pospeßS • sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in a healthy, body— the power to conceive— the , energy to execute ! But look at our Austra* • iian yonth ! See the emaciated form, the . racant look, the listless hesitating manner.; the 1 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 subject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause of this decay ; and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) Beck the killed advice of the medical man, who has made this branch of his .profession his' par. ticular speciality, whose life has been <|c voted to the treatment of these cases' Reader, what is 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 medioal 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, and 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^-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' snperflous (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 though he has been practising this branch of his pro fession for 26 years in these Colonies, no. single instanoe of accidentdal discovery 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 accompany theser latter, and a oure is effected I 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 expense of a personal visit. . ._.,,. Address— DR. L.
