" Livlm of groat inonall rouiind us, We iii'i make pur lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints ou the sands of time." . rpFIE iihove is read with grcut mtoi'Pst .1 by thousands of young men. It inspires thorn with Hon:, for in tho bright . 0 lexicon of youth there is no such word |as fail. Alas! nay many, this is oor'.v Wot,—iv true..with regard .to the youth 10 *yho has never abused his strength—and to the man who haa not been " y slave." But to that youth—to'that man. who has wasted his vigor, who' has yielded himself iin to the tomporary sweet allurements ot vice, who lias given unbridled license to _ .his passions, to him the above lines are but as u reproach. AVhat Tlopb can he > hnve ? What aspirations ? AVhat chance of leaving ins footprints on tlio sands of time '; For him, alas ' there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach row a lost mi E.~" fora'mnn to leave his footprints on the sand* of lime, he must be endowed with a j ] strong brain and nervous power. Ho must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in • a healthy body—the power toeoneeive—the energy to execute '. But look at our Australian youth! See tin; emaciated form. I the vacant look, the listless hesitating r manner, the nervous distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demoanour'arid conversation,* and then say. Is tlial n man to leave ins footprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medical men nnd educators of youth pay sudicient attention to thin subject? Do they ever ascertain the euuse of this decay ; and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty./, demands) seek [ho skilled advice of the medical man, who hoi) innilo this brnneh of his 'profession his particular speciality, whose life has been ■!•■- voted 10 the treatment of thesucases? Render. . whatisvora answer? Lcteaehononnswer for j himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight/ace them become emaciated old young men, broken ■ down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for tho ■ battle of life; yet one word might, save them, one sound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of sm-.h cases, would, in most instances succeed in warding off the impending doom i of n miserable and gloomy future, aud by ! appropriate treatment restore the enervated I system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joy- . ous aud happy life. t Dlt. L. L. Smith, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising ', therefrom his peculiar study. This whole . profnsional life lias been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and ! the Diseases iueideiital to Married Life. ' His skill is available to all—no matter how many hundreds or thousands of miles distant. His system of corn■spoiideiice by letter is now so well organised and known. that comment would 1>« superfluous—(by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom ho has never seen and never known) : and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he bus been practising this brunch of his profession lor twenty-six years in these ttoliuiii'S, no single instance of aceideutnl discovery has over yet happened. When Medicines me required, these fill manner without a possibility of the •.■onteuts of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions uccompuany these bitter, a cure is effected without even the physician knowing who is his patient.
