“ I.ivos of gr.>ah**rj i all remind us, W* a it;-ik'* our IB os suhlino ; An I. departing leave behind us Ko«•t|u*int.s on tho sun Is of time.” TI IK above is read with great interest by thousands of voting men. It inspires them with I Tori:, for in tho bright lexicon of youth there is no such word us fail. Alas! «ay many, this is correct.—is true with regard to tlio youth wh » has never abused Ids strength— and to tho man who lias not been ‘ ; passion’s slave.” but to that youth—to that man, who lias wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to liis passions, to him the above lines are hut as a reproach. What Horn can he have ? What aspirations? What chance of leaving ms footprints on the sands of time? For him, alas I there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach you a lost life. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must he endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. Ho must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in u healthy body—the power to conceive—tho energy to execute ! But look at our Australian youth! See tho emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say, Is that a man to leave ms footprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sullieient attention to thissuhj. ct ? D » they ever ascertain the cause of this decay : and having done so, do they 'as a strict same of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of tho medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life has been devoted t<» the treatment of these cases? Bender, what isvor't answ* r? Let each one answer for himself.
