“ Lives of great men all remind us, AVe ran make our lives sublime ; And. departing, leave behind us I'ootprints on the sands of time.” THK above is read with great interest liy thousands of young men. It inspires them with Horn, for in the bright lexicon of vouth there is no such word ns fail. Alas! say many, this is eorreel.—is true with regard to the youth who has never abused bis strength—and |to tho man who has not been “passion’s Tint to that youth—to'that man, who has wasted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to his passions, to him the above lines are but as u reproach. "What Hopk can lie haVe? What aspirations? What chance of leaving nrs footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas ! there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach fou a lost I.IKK. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must he endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, in a healthy body—the power to conceive—the energy to execute ! lint look at our Australian vouth! See the 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. 1)o parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject ?

Let each oneaiiswer for himself. Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, .see them become emaciated old vonng men. broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for th.i 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 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 enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous nml happy life.
