It inspires them with Hope, for in | the bright lexicon of youth there is no such 1 1 word as fail. Alas ! say many, this is cor- | rect, —is true with regard to the youth who | , has never abused strength—and to the i | man who lias not been “ passion’s slave.” But to that youth—to that man, who has ; wasted bis vigor, who has yielded L '.nisei ; j up to the temporary sweet allurements ol I vice, who has given unbridledfficcnse to his ‘ passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. Wiiot Hope can he have? I What aspirations ? What chance of leaving | his footprints on the sands of time? Fori b'v., alas ! there is nought but dark despair j and self reproach for a lust hje. For a man to leave his footprints on the i , sands of time, he mnst be endowed with a ■ i 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 i Australian youth ! See the emaciated form. : the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, ; almost idiotic expression. Note his fie- | meanour and conversation, and then say, Is that a man to leave his footprints on the ■ sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subect ? Do 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, who has made this branch of his profession his particular specialty, whose life has been devoted to tlie treatment of tliece cases? 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, unfitted for the battle o 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, suecoed in warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment rest tc the enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L L. SMITH, of Melbourne, lias ; made the diseases of youth and those arising j therefrom his peculiar study. His whole j professional life has beer especially devoted j 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 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 protession for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental dis covery has ever yet happened. When medicines arc required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions nocompany these latter, and a cure is effected without oven 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 SM ITU’S plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as itiloes, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address— DR. L. L, SMITH 182 Collins Street, MELBOURNE.
