NOTE THE ADDRESSES : • a i 80 Princes street, Dunedin ; Great N irth Road, T mam : and Thames street, Oamaru “ Lives of creat men all remind us. We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.” r|^ HE above is read w-'th great inI r.erest l»v thousands of ycimg men. It inspires them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such i word as fail. Alas ! say many, this is cor- j rect, —is true with regard to the youth who i has never abused strength—and to the : man who has not been “ passion’s slave.” But to that youth—to that man, who has 1 wasted his vigor, who has yielded v Cnsel c j up to the temporary sweet allurements ot ! vice, who has riven imhridledjlicense to his j passions, to hi u the above lines are but as | a reproach. What Hope can he have • What aspirations? What chance of leaving j his footprints on the sands of time? For j h'o, ; ; ,i.ia ! there is nought but dark despair j and self .-eproacn for a lost h/c. For a man to leave his footprints on the; sandsof time, he must he endowed with a | strong brain and nervous power, lie must j possess a sound, vigorous healthy mind, in j a healthy hj. dy—the power tcvconccive — the energy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth ! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, t lie senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour 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 «f his profession his particular specialty, whose life has been devo-I ted to the treatment of these cases? Reader, j 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 moat instances, succeed in warding oft’ the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated system toils natural vigor, and 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 whole professional life has beer especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and the Diseases incidental to Married Life. Mis skill is available to all- -no matter bowmany hundreds or thousands of miles distant. Mis system of correspondence by letteris now so well organised and known, that comment would be superfluous- (by this means many thousands of patients hav 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 pro fessiou for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance ot accidental dis covery has ever yet happened. When medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same caretul manner without a possibility of the contents of the oarcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions ac company these latter, and a cure is eftected without even the physician knowing w ho 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 ituoes, the inconvenience ami expense of a personal visit. Address — DR. L. L. SMITH IS2 Collins Street, MELBOURNE.
