NOTE THE ADDRESSES s 80 Princes street, Dunedin ; Great North Road, Timaru ; and Thames street, Ounaru “ 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 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 ! say many, this is c»rrect, —is true with regard to the youth who has never abused 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 uubridledrlicense to his passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. .Wuat Hope can he have? What aspirations ? What chance of leaving his footprints on the sands of time ! For b>n-, alas ! there is nought but dark despair and self reproach for a lost life. j For a man to leave his footprints on the a sandsof time, he must be endowed with a i strong brainand nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous healthy mind, in a healthy b. dy—the power toconccive—the energy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth ! Bee the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listb-ss hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say, Is that a man to leave his footprints on tho 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-f the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular specialty, whose life has beep, devoted to the treatment of these 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, 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, aud ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases ofyouth and those arising therefrom his' peculiar study. His vhole professional I'fe 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 thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letteris now so well organised ami known, that comment would he superduoiis- (by this means many thousands of patients hav been cured, whom he has never seen and never known) ; aud it is earned on With such judicious supervision that though ho has been practising this branch of his 1 pro. fesaion for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental die oovery has ever yet happened. When medicines are required, these are forwardedjn the same careful manner without a possi- ' bility of the contents of the nareels being discovered. Plain and clear .directions accompany these latter, aud a cure is affected without even the physician knowing who is his patient.
