We ten make our Uvea sublime; Ani/doparting, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time." mHE above is read with great interest of young men, It iispires with'Hope, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail,' , Alas! say many, this is correct,—is' _prue 'with regard to the youth who has" abused his strength—and to the man who has not been "passion's slave.", ..', But to that youth—to thai man, who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements o: vice, who has f iven unbridled license to his passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. What Hope can he have ? What aspirations ? What chance of leaving 1 his footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas! there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lost life. 1 For a main to loave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in a healthy bddy—the power to conceive—;he energy to execute! But look ut our Australian youth! See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating m nier, the nervous distrust, the so: sJe s. almost idiotic expression. Note his d. - meanour and conversation, and then fay, 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 over ascertain the cause of this decay ; and having done so, do they (us a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the medical man, wo has made this brunch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted to the treatment of theseenses? Reader, whatisvoun answer? Deteachoneanswerfor himself.! Parents see their progeny fadiig gradually before their sight, see them be-1 come emaciated old young mou, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for tha battle of life; yet one word might save them, one souud and vigorous henlth-givii g letter from a medical man, hauiuiutoa to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases, would, in most instances succeed in warding off the impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by. appropriate treatment restore the enei v.ited | system to its natural vigor, and ensure u joyous ami happy life. De. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising therefrom his peculiar study. His whole profesionul life has been espeeiully devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and the Discasos incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all—no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondonco by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment would bo superfluous—(by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom ho has never seen and never known); and it is carried on witli such judicious supervision that though lie has been practising this branch of Ms profession for twenty-six years in those Colonies, no single instance of incidental discovery has ever yet happened. When .Medicines aro required, these are forwarded in tho sumo careful manner without a possibility of tho content.- of the parcels oeiiig discovered, plain i ■ • dii \ ..isuuompuunythose lutte . en.cU'd WU..J,.. even the phy , . ing who is ids patient. To Men and Women with Broken-down Constitutions, tho Nervous, tho Debilitate 1, nnd all suffering from any Disease whatever, Da. L. L. Smith's plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit.
