Wo can make our lives sublime; And. departing, leave behind us Footprints On the sands of time." "IE above is road with great interest >.., <!,„..„„„J„ 0 f young men. It in[ope, for in tho bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as foil. Alas! say many, this is correct,—is true with regard to tho youth who has nevor abused his strength—and to the man who has not beon "passion's slave." But to that youth—to that man, who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweat allurements of vice, who hus given unbridled license to l,!o T.-^ B ; onSj to him tho above lines ore i a roproach. What Hope can he What aspirations? What chance of leaving ins footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas! thero is nought but dark despair uud self-reproach for a lost ukk. For a man to leave his footprints on the lands of time, he must be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, iu 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, tho senseless, silmost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and 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 the cause if this decay ; and having done so, do they [as a strict sense of duty demands) soek :he skilled advice of the medical man, who ims mndo this branch of his profession his [(articular speciality, whose life lias been demoted to thetreatment of thesecases? Deader, whatisyour answer? Leteachonennswer for iiimsolf. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, see them be■ome emaciated old young men, broken lown in health, enfeebled, unfitted for tho hattle of life; yet oue word might save them, one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such coses, would, in most instance!; succeed in warding off tho impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the eneivated system to its. natural vigor, and ensure a joyous and happy life. Dr. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and thoso arising therefrom his peculiar study. This ] whole profcsional life has been especially devoted to the treatniont of Nervous Affections uud iu* DUnttooa incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to ull—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 bo superfluous—(by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom he has never seen and never known) ; and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though lie has beer, practising this branch of Ins profession for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery', bus ever yet; happened. When Medicines are required, thesi are forwarded in the sumo careful manner without a possibility of tin .•oiitfiits of the parcels being discovered.
