rtedical " Live& of 'great men all remind us, We can make*oar lives sublime And, departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands"of time." rHE above is read with great intenrt by thousands of young men. It inspires hem with Hope, for in the bright txicon if youth there is no such word as fai'. /lias! lay many, this is correct, — is truew^j r?» ;ard to the youth who has never abu lA bif> itrength — and to the man who has n <■ betr 'passion's slave." But to that youth— to that man, * •»» nvi pasted his vigor, who has yielded aself lp to the temporary sweet allurem" ta a /ice, who has given unbridled license o his passions, to him the above lines are bu« as 4 reproach. What Hope can he have ? What Mpirationa 7 What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time ? For him, ilas ! there Is nought but dark despair and 3elf -reproach for a lost life. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in a healthy body — the power to conceive— the energy to execute 1 But look at our Austra. lian youth ! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic, expression. Note his demearcr and conversation, and then say, "Is that a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time?" Do parents, medical men and educators of youth, pay sufficient attention to this scbi ject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause of this decay ; and having done sc, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the killed advice of the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his pat* ticular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cases. 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 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 aud gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyouß 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. Hlb skill is available to all— no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles dis> tanfc. Hlb system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment would be superflous (by this means many thousands of patients have been cured whom he has never see and never known) ; and it is carried o> itb such judicious supervision that thoigh he has been practising this branch of his pro feasion for 26 years in these Colonies, no sinSle instance of accidental 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 these 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 what* ever, Dr L. L. SMITH'S plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a perosnai visit. * Address — DR.
