Medical. "Lives of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time," THE above is read with great interest bv JL thousands of young men, It inspires them with Hope, for m the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Alas! say mini, this is correct, is true with regard to the youth who has never abused his strength-and to the man who has not been " passion's slave " Lilt, to that youth—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 lmes are but as a reproach What Bom can he have ? What aspivations j What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time? For him, alas! there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach far a, lost life. For a man to lfeave 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 [l See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note hi 3 demeanour and conversation, and then say, Is that the man to leave Ms footprints on tho ■sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to tliis subject j Do they ever ascertain the cause of this decay; and having none so, do they (as astrict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of a me. dical man, who has made this branch of hia profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cases 1 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, untitled for the battle of life j yet one word might save them one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treaiment 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 tho 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 there, from his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and the Diseases inciden. tal to Married Life. His skill is available to all —no_ matter how many hundreds of thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known that comment would be superfluous—(by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom he has never seen and never known); and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he has been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery has ever yet happened, When Medicines >are required, these are for' warded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions aecom» pany these latter, and a cure is effected with. out_ even the physician Jmowing who is hia patient. To Men and Women with Brokendown Con. stitutions, 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— , BR.
