It inspires them with Hopf, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no euch word as fail. Alss ! say many, this is correct — is true with regard to the youth who hrs never abused his 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 jielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to hi* passiors to him the above lines are but as a reproach. What hope can he have ? What aspirations ? What cbance ot leaving his footprints on the sands 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 en the cands of time, he must be endowed with a strong braiu UDd nervous poirf r. He must possess a strong, vigorous, healthy mind in a healthy body — the power to conceive — the energy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless, hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic exprefaion. Note bis demeanor ard conversation, and then siy. Ia 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 subject ? 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, wh i has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whos? life has been devoted to the treatment of these cas;? ? Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one answer for himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their eight, see them become emaciated, old young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of 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 ot such cases, w< uld in most instances suceeed ia warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the 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 bis peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment, of Nervous affections and the Diseases incidental to Married Life. His SB ill is available to all— no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles distant. Bis system of correspondence by latter is now so wel! organised and known, that comment would be superflous— (by this means many thousands of patients have bt en cured, whom he ba9 never eeon and never known); and It is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he lias been practising this branch of bis profession for twenty-six years tn these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery I>fb ever yet happenel. When medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same cartful manner, without a possibility of ti e contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain m\ clear directions accompany these latter, and a cure is effected without even the physician knowing who is hi* patient. To Men and Women with Broken-down Constitutions, the Nervous and Debilitated, all suffering from any disease whatever, Dr. L. L. Smith's plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding as it does the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Addreas— DR. L. L. SMITH, 182, COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE.
