" Lives of great men ill reraiad us, We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind Footprints ou the sands of time." IHE above is read with great in« __ terest by thousands of young men. It inspires them with Hope for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Alas! k-.v many, this is correct,~is true 6> at. regard to the youth who has nev"Vs abused his strength—and to the who has not been " passion's slave." But to that youth—to that mau, who has 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 as a reproach. \Vbat Hope can he have 1 What aspirations? What chance of leaving Ms footprints on the sands of time ? Eor him, alas ! there is nought but despair and self-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! But look at our Australian youth ! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say, Is that a man to leave his footprints on the sand of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ? Do they ever ascer, tain the cause of this decay: and having done so do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice or the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cases ? Header what is yowr answer ? Let each one answer for himself. Parents seo their progeny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old young men broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of life; yot one word might save them, one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical mau, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases, would, in most iustauees, succeed in warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the euervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a oyous and happy life. Br. 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 thousauds of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment would be superfluous— (by this meaus many thousauds of patients have been cured, whom be has never seen and never known); and it ia earned on with such judicious supervision that though he has been practising this brauch of his profession for twenty-six years iu these colonies, no single 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 the 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, avoiuiug, as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address — DR. L. L. SMITH, IS2, Collins street east, MELBOURNE.
