N ABBOTT, Urited Service Hotel,*AucKLA>D, November, 1880 3367 " Lives of great men ail remind us, We can make our liveß eub'ime -, And departing, leave behind ua Footprints on the sands of time." THE above is read with great interest by thoueands of young men It inspire? them with Bopr, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail A!»8 ! , cay many, this is correct— is true with regard | to the youth who has never abused hie strength — and to the roan who has not been j " passion's slave." j But to that youth—to that man who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to hia passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach What hope can he have ? Wbat aspirations? What chance ot leaving his footprints On tbe eands of time ? For him, al?s, there ia nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lost life For a man to leave his footprints on. the eands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain end nervouß po«rf r. He must possess a strong, vigorous, nealtby mind in a healthy body— the power to conceive — - the energy to execute I But look at our Australan yonthl See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the HetleßS, hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, tbe senselees, almost idiotid expression. Note bis demeanor a*d conversation, and then say. Is 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 tbe cause of this decay? and having done so, do they (tts a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice oi the medical man wh » baa made this branch of his proteegion Sis particu lar speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of these cas»g ? Reader, what is your answer ? Let each one answer for himself. Parents see their progeny fadirg gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated, old young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of ife; yet one word inigh save them, one lound and vigorous health-^ivinK letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision ot snch coses, w< uld in most instances succeed in warding off the impending doom ol a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated sjstem to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L; L. SMITII, ot Melbouroe, has made the diseases of youth and thos? arising therefrom his peculiar study. Bis whole profes sioaal life has been t specially devoted to the treatment of Ntrvoua affections and tbe Diseases incidental to Married Life. His eMll is available to all— no matter bow many ' nundreds or thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment would be superflous— (by this means rosny thousands of patients have been cured, whom he has never eeen and never known); and it is cairied on with such judicious supervision that though he has been practising this branch of his profession for twenty-nx years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery hss ever yet happened. When medicices are required, these are forwarded in the same.careful manntr, without a possibility of tt c contents of the parcels being- discovered. . Plain and clear directions accompany these latter, end a cure h effected without even the physician knowing who is his patient. To Men Bnd Women with Broken-flown Constitutions, the Nervous and Debilitated, all suffering from any disease whatever, Dr. JU L. Smith's plan of treatment commendß itself, avoiding as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address— DR. L. L.
