•• Lives of gnat men aH remind us, We c»n make our lives subiitre ; And departing, leave bthind us Footprints on the eands of time.' 5 npHE above is read with great interest by X thousands of yonng men. It inspires them with Hopf, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail Alas! say many, this is correct — is true with regard to tbe youth who has never abused his strength — and to the nmn who ha? 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 eweet allure inents of vice, who has given unbridled license to Ms passiotß to him the aboVe lines are but as a rrproach. What hope csn l:e have ? What aspirations ? What chance ot leaving his footprints on the ssn 'b of time ? For him, alss, there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lest life For a man to leave his footprints on the fands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain und nervous powr. He must possess a strong, vigorous, Imltby mind in a healthy body — the power to conceive — the energy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth 1 See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous dielrust, tlie senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanor ard conversation, and then s»y. Is that a :nan to leave his footprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medical rnep, and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ? Do they ever »scettuin the cause of this decay ? and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek tbe skilled advice (if the medical ram wh > has made this branch of his protefsion his particular speciality, whose life has been <ieroted to the treatment ot these cass ? Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one answer for himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, 3ee them become emaciated, old young rcen, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfittel for the battle of life ; 'yet one word might save them, one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical maD, habituated to the treatment and continuom supervision ot such cesea, Wi uli in most instances suceeed in warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore tbe enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L. L. SMITH, ot Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising therefrom his peculiar study. His whole professional life has betn especially devoted to the treatment of Ntrvou9 affections and tbe Diseases incidental to Married Life. Hia 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 superfiou?— (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 profession for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery lif.b ever yet happened. When medicines are required, these are lorwarded in the eame cartful manner, without a possibility ot ti e contents of the parcels being Discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany these latter, and a cure is effected without even the phjsician knowing who is hi? patient. To Men and Women with Broken-down Constitutions, the Nervous and Debilitated, ail suffering from any cisease whatever, Dr. Li. L. Smith s plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding as it doea thp inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address — DR. L. L. SMITH, 182, COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE.
