, .-, Medical. ■ ■ : " Lives of great men all remind us, . .We can n?ake our lives sublime, And departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.'j TJIHE above is read with' gteat interest by X 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 correct,— is trite with regard to the youth who has never abused his strength, and to the man:whp. has not. been " passions " slave. But to that youth— to that man jfaphaa wasted his vigor, who" has 'yielded himself unto the temporary- sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to his passion, to him the above lines are as a reproach. What, Hope, can he have,?. What aspirations ?-' Whatchance otleaving 'His footprints on the sands of time? For him, alas, there is nought but dark despair and self reproach '/orAlostJife.' ..: < /. '-:.■/,. . For, a man to leave bis footprints on the Sands of time, he' inusf be endowed with a strong brain and .nervous power. He vacant possess a sound, vigorous* -healthy mind, in a healthy body— the power to conceive, -Hie energy to .execute I --But- look -at our Australian youth'!- Seethe; ; «maciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust; ' the ' Benseleas, almost idiotic, expression. Note 1 his demeanour and • Conversation, 'and then sayj-Is that a man to leave his footprints on" the sands of time ? . ; ; Do: parents, mejdical, niepyand educators ef youth pay sufficient attention to this subject? Do they ever; ascertain;, the cause of this decay.;, and having, done, so do they (as a stfict'sense" of duty;deniaTids) seek the skilled advice' of the medical man, who has made this braanch of "his profession his particular specialty-, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cases? Reader, what it 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 ; bottle 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, natural vigor, ! and ensjurp a joyous and happy life. Da L.X. SMMfi, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising- therefrom his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and; Diseases incidental to ' Married life. Ht skill is available to all- 10 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:neyer seen sndnever known) ;, and it is carried on with such judicious supervisien tkat •though he has been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-six years in these colonies no single instance of accidental discovery has ever yet happened, When medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same careful" manner,^^'without a possibility of tha contente-ef the parcelsbeing discovered. ■ Plain' "and" ' clear directions accompany theie latter, and a cure is. effected without evea the physician knowing- who. isr Ms patient.
