Publio Notioes, " Lives of great men all remind us, We oan make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time." TSE ahove is read with great interest by thousands of yonng. men. It inspires them with Hops, for in the bright lexioon of youth there is no suoh word as fail. Alas ! sa> many, this is correct,— is true with .agard to the youth who bas never abused his strength — and to the man who has not been • passion's slave." But to that youth— to that man, who has wafted 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 a reproach. What Hopb can he have ? What aspirations? of leaving hie j?bijj£&shi6 leave his footprints on the sandrm* _t-»e,, he must be endowed with a strong waft fed nervous * power. He must possess a sound, vigoroul, healthy mind, iv a healthy body —the power to conceiTe— the energy to eteoute! But look at our Australian youth 1 Seethe 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 hie 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 oause ot this decay | and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the medioal man, who has made tbis branoh of his profession his particular speciality, whose lire has been devoted to the treatment of these oases ? Reader, what is your answer ? Let eaoh one answer for himself, Parents see their progeny fading gradually before tbeir sight, see them become emaciated old young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the battle of lifej yet one word might save them, one sound an^ vigorous heaith-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and cbniiiiuous supervision of suoh oases woul _, in ffio-fc instances, succeed in .warning ott' tue impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, aita by appropriate treatment restore tbe enervated system to its natural /tijtt^nd ensure ajoyous and happy life.. A-Jpfli. Jj. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising therd from his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been 'especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Affections and the -Diseases incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all— no matter how m*..y hundreds or thousand- of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known, that comment would be superfluous— (by this meaus many thousands of patients have been oured, whom he has never seen and never known) ; and it ie carried on with such judioious supervisou tbat though he has been practising this branch of his profession: for twenty*six years in these colonies, no single instance of aooi" forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered, Plain and clear direotions accompany these latfer, and a cure is effected without eyen the physician knowing who is bis patient. To Men and Women with Broken-down Constitutions, the Nervous, the Debilitated, and all suffering from any Disease whatever, Dr L. L. SMITH'S plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense f a personal visit, Addbbsb— DR. L. L SMITH, 182, COLLINS STBEET EAST. MELBOOKNE.
