" Lives of great men all remind us, Wf can make our lives sublime j And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time." HTMIF. above is read with great interest X l.'jr thousandy of young men. It inspires them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as f.nL ADs!>a.y many, (his is correct, —is true with regard to the youtli who has never übused his strength—arid to the man who lias not been " passion's slave." liutto that y< uth—to that man, who hus wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary pwev allurements of vice, >vho has given unbridled licence to his pasM'ons, to him the above lines are hut as a reproach. WJiftt H'oPK can he have ? What aspirations IVh j el.ance of leaving his footprints )n t.ne sards of time ? For him, alas ! t/iere is nought hut dark despair and tseU-tepiv&ch 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 ! But look at our Australian youth! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous di.-trust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say. is that a man to have his footprints on tho sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educator's of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause of this deca\; and having done so do they (aa a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilitd advice ot the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these eases? Reader, what is youv answer ? Lrirea.'l: one answer for himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old young men, broken down in health, eh feebled, unfitted for the battle of life ; ye one word might save them, one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment continuoos supervision of such ca>es, we <!••: i » most instances, Succeed in warding s*=' the impending doom of a miserabl' »oc gloomy future, and by appropriate .reat metit restore the enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. J.. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those ari.« ing therefrom his uectfliffr study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and rhe Diseases incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all —no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment Would he superfluous—(by this means many thousands of patients have bet n cured, whom he has never seen and never known); and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he hus been practising this braor.lt of his profession for twenty-six years in these colonie.*, no single instance of accidental discovery has ever yet happ. ned. 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 i- his patient. To Men and Women with Brokendown Constitutions, the Neivous, the Debilitated, and all suffering from any distase whatever, Dr. L. L SMITH'S plan of treatment commends itself, pvoidmg, as it dooe, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. AddressDR. L. L.
