1 meaicai. t : ■ — : " Lives of great men all remind us, We can n-akc our lives sublime, And departing, leav* behind us Footprints on the sands of time.\ TIIE above is read with great interest fey thousands «f young men. It- inspire* them with HOPE, for in the bright lexicon «f youth there is no such word as fail. Alas 1 say many, this is correct, — is true with regard to the youth who has never abused his strength, and to the man who has not been " passions " slare. But to that youth — to that man who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himseK unto the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled licenbe to his passion, to him the above lines are as a Teproach. What Hope can he have? What aspirations ? Whatchance of leaving hi 3 footprint* on the sands of time ?• For him, alas, thore is nought but dark despair and self reproach for a lost life. .... For a man to leave his footprints on tht 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 eraaci&iied'fdnn, fh« vacant look, lihe listless hesitating ;manner, the nervous distrust; the senseless, almost idiotic, expression., , Ifote his demeanour and conversation/ a^d then>Bay, Is that a man t« leave Ms footprints on the sands of time ? Do parents, medical, men, and educators «f youtH pay sufficient attention to this subject? Do 'they: ever ascertain the cause of this decay; :and. having: done, s?) do they (aB a strict sense of/duty. demands) sejek 'the skilled' advice of" the medical mah^ wlMvhas" made this braanch of .his: profewionihis particular 'specialty, whose .life, has, .b.egn devoted to the jreatment^f' these' cases? 1 / Reader; 'wnat is your answer? Let. each one "answer for himself. Parents see "'their progeny, fading 'gradually before their 'sight,:«'ee theTn-"bec^me emaciated old young men, broken doi(m in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle'of life; yet one word might save them, one sound and 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 natnral vigor, and ensure a jeyous and happy life. . Dk L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising therefrom his peculiar study. Hia whole professional life has, been especially devoted to tho treatment of' Nervous Affections "and; Diseases incidental to Married Life. SI skill is available to all- 10 matter how many hundreds: or thousands of miles distant. Hi system of i. correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known that comment Would be superfluous— (by this means' aiaay thousands of patients have been cured,.whom he has never seen and never known) ; and it » Cftrriedou wit.}r «ach jadicjoas supern«*a that though he has besa- practising this fea»«h of Ihi* ppoff^^;fpr.^wpnj,v-s^ jzxts in th«« ; eolo.r^^ 9prsingl'2 in^iiJicS^acjcideiitai^iiF- - : ' possibility "of -iW ctßtWw«f : 'the-parcelS being disco vere£ Plain aud clear directions accompany these latter, and a, cure, is e.ffected without eTea the physician knowing whe is his patient. ..To.
