footprints on the eands of time ? For him, alas, there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lost life For a man to leave his footprints en tbe Bands of time, he must be endowed wilh a strong brsia end nervous powrr. He must possess a strong, vigorous, healthy mind in a healthy body — the power to conceive — thei energy to execute 1 But Jook at our Austral-] yonth 1 See tbe emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost; idiotic expression. Note bis demeanor a*d conversation, and then say. Is that a Tnan to leave his footprints on tbe esnds 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 pense of duty demands) seek the, skilled, advice of the medical man, wh> has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these casts ? - Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one aaswer for himself. Parents see their progeny fading; gradually before their eight, see them become, emaciated, old. young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, u&fitted for the battle of ife ; yet one word migh save them, one lound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases,; w^uld in most instances succeed in warding l off the impending doom of a miserable and: gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment; restore tbe enervated s> stem to its natural; vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr, L. L. SMITH, bt 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 the. Diseases incidental to' Married Life. His' 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 superfluous — Coy this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom he has never seen and never known); and it is carried on with BUCh jadiciou9 supervision that though he has been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-eix years in these colonies, no single instance cf accidental discovery has ever yet happened. When medicine 3 are required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner, without a possibility of contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany these latter, and a cure is effected without even the physician knowing who is his patient. • To Men and Women with Broken-down Constitutions, the Nervous and Debilitated, all suffering from any disease whatever, Dr. Ii L, Smith's plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding as it does thx> inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address— DR. L. L. SMITH, 182, COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE (Late the residence of the Governor,) Consultation Fse by I.eiiCFj £1.
