, mHE GREATEST WONDER of the AGE I is now an established fact, that SLESTNGER'S RIIKUMVTIC BALSAM is the only legitimate article for a speedy and effectual cure for pain of any kind of a muscular or nervous affection, be it acute or chronic, recent or of long standing ; be it a j sprain, rheumatics, gout, lumbago, or pain i in shoulder, legs, chest, back, loins, hip, foot, &c, &c. Not many weeks ago, when three different doctors treated a person in Dunedin — one using subcutaneous injections repeatedly, and trying all they could without any benefit — the said person (a gentleman well known in Dnnedin) obtained a bottle of Slesiager's "Rheumatic Balsam, and got perfectly cured in less than 2i honrs, This is another to the many wonders this blessed discovery of Slesinger's Rheumatic Balsam has effected, and costs the party but 7s 6d apainst scores of pounds to the doctors and months in pain. What a contrast ! Wetherstones, 17th Sept., 1877. Mr. James J. Harris Dear Sir. — A few days ago, I purchased a bottle of Slesinger'a Rheumatic Balsam. from you, having heard a great deal about its wonderful curative virtues ; and as I have been a victim to acute rheumatism for several years, I determined to put to the test its efficacy. I have much pleasure in adding that a Single Bottle has almost effected a complete cure ; and in writing you now, I can assure you that I have the greatest faitn in the Balsam for which you are Age:at. — I am, &c, Frederick Neiljian.

" Lrves of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time."' JIIIE above is read with great interest X thousands of young men. It inspired them with hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth thi-re is no such word as fail. Alas ! say many, this is correct,— is true with regard to the youth who has never ahusetl his strength— ntul to the man who has not been " passion's slave. But to tlut youth- to that man, who has wasted his vi^or, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to his passions to hnii the above lines are but as a reproach. \\hat hope can he have? What aspirations? \V hat chance of leaving his footprints on the s.inds of time? For him. alas ! there is nought Im t dai k despair and self-reproach for a lost Hfe. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be endowed with a strong l.iHin and r.eivous power. He must possess a sound, vigoious, healthy mind, in a healthy body— the power to conceive— the energy to execute But look at our Australian youth ! rfee the emaciated form, the vacant look the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust the senseless, altn6st idiotic expression. Ndte his demeanor and conveisaiion, and then say Is that a. man to leave his footprints on. the siintls of time. Do paients. medical men, and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to thissubiect? Do they ever ascertain the cause of this decay - ami having done so, do they (as a strict sense-oE duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular specialty, whose Hfe has been devoted to the treatment of these cases ? Reader, what is your auswer ? Let each one answer for himself. Parents see their prosjeny fading gtadually before their sight, see tht in become emaciated old young men broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted 'for the battle of life ; yet one word might save them one sound and vigorous health-giving letter f lorn a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such case 3 would, in most instances, succeed in wardiDjr off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure it joyous and happy life Dr L.L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth, and those arising therefiom, his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the cieatmeut 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 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 cared whom he has never seen and never known) ; and it has been carried on with such judicious supervision that- though he has been. practising this bianch 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 forwarded in the same careful manner wnhonc 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 knowiue who is his patienr. 6 To Men and Women with Broken-Jown Con stntuions, the Nervous, the" Debilitated and all suffering from any Disease whatever", Dt L.
