“ Lives of great men all remind ua, We can make our lives sublime ; Ami, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.” HE above is read with great interest by thousands of young men. It inspires them with Horn, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Alas 1 sayjmany, 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.” But to that youth—to that'man, who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridledjlicenso to his passions, to him the above lines are hut as a reproach. What Horn can he have? What aspirations ? What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas_! there is nought but dark despair and self reproach for a lout life. For a man tojeave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power, lie 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 distrust, the senseless, ! almost idiotic expression. Koto his de- | mcanour and conversation, and thou say, I Is that a man to leave hie footprints on the ! sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ? Du they ever ascertain the cause of this decay ; and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the medical man, w’ho has made this branch of his profession his par- j tioular specialty, whose life has been devc- ! ted to the treatment of these cases? Header, I what is your answer? Let each one answer 1 for himself. Parents seo their progeny fading gradually before tlieir sight, seo them 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 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 and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the 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 ami 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 bowmany 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 cured, whom ho has never seen and never known) ; and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though ho has been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-six years in these colonics, no single instance of accidental dis covcry has ever yet happened. When medicines arc required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of tbo parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany those 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 from any Disease whatever, Dr. L. L. S.M ITU'S plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. A ihh'css — Dll. L L. SMITH, 182 Collins Street, MELBOURNE.
