«* Lives of great men *n remind us, I We can make our liveß sublime ; And departing, leave behind ua Footprints on the sands of time." rr-'WE rtova is read with great interest by i. thoi\r»nds oi yoang men it inspire? tbem with Hops, for in the bright lexicon of youth thcra is no such word ss fail Alas ! cay many, this is correct— is true with regard to tbe yoath who has never abused his strength— snd to the roan who has not bten " passion's slave." But to tbat youth—to that man who has washed his vigor, who has jieided himself up to tbe temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has giyen unbridled license to hu parsioris. to him the above lineß are but as a rr pioach, Wbat hope can he have ? What aepuationß? What chance of leaving his footprints on the pnn>ts of time ? For him, a??s, there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lest life For a man to leave bi.s footprints on t>e *ands of time, be must be endowed with a strong brsin end nervous poswr. He must possess a strong, vigorous, healthy mini in a healthy body— the po^er to conceive — ?h< energj to execute I But look at our Australian yontb 1 See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the fenselees, almost iiiotic exprepsion. Note his demeanor atd c. nve^sstion, and then s*y Is that a 3ian to leave his footprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medicr.l men, and educators of youth pay BuSScient attention to this subject ? Do they ever ascertain tbe cause of this decay ? and having none so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the ..medical man wh ■ has made this branch of his profession his particu lar speciality whose life has been devoted to tbe treatment of thes?cascg? Reader, what' is your an«w:r ? Let each oce answer for himself. Parents see their progeny fadirg! gradually before their eight sco them become emaciated, eld young iren, broken down in: health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle oi ife; yet one word migh save them, one Jound and vigorous health-Pi vinsr letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases:! w ul«i in most instances sucaeed in wardios off the impending doom of a miserable and: gloomy future, and by appropriate treat men? restore the enervated system to its natural! vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has raadt the diseases of youth and thosp arising therefrom his peculiar study Bis v hole profes sional life h*s been c specially devoted to the treatment of Nervous sffi ctions ami tbt Diseases incidental to Married Life. His! sMU is available to all— no matter how manf nundreds or thousands of miles distant. Eie [' systemof correspondence by letter is now s- ■ well organised and known, that ; comment I would be superflous— (by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom ;j he has never seen and never known); and it M is carried on with such judicious supervision that though be has been practising this; branch of his profession for twenty-six years! In these colonies, no single instance of acci- i dental discovery has ever yet happenei.; When medicines are required, thtse are for j warded in the fame careful manner, withou' '-. * possibility of ti e contents of the parcels j being discovered. Plain and clear directions i iccompany these latter, End a cure in effected ! without even the physician knowing who is ; his patient. To Men snd Women wiih Broken-down Constitutions the Nervous and Debilitated, all sufTeringr frona any disease whatever, Dr. I* L. Smith's plan of treatment commence itsMf, avoiding as it does thf inconvenience and expense of a personal visit. Address — DR. L. L. SMITH, 182, COLLINS STREET EAST, MELBOURNE (Late ths residence of the Governor.) Consultation F>ie by Letter. £\.
