I Public Notices. I" Lives of great men all remind us. We can make our lives sublime ; And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.'* I fT^HE above is read with great interest by i |_ thousands of young men. It inspires | them with Hope, for in the bright lexicon of vcu th there is no such word us fail. Lias! saj many, this is correct, — is true with '.vgard to the youth who has never abused his strength — and to the man who has not been 1 passion's slave." But to Ihut youth — to that man, who has wanted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to his pas* sions, to him the above lines are but as a reprouch. What Hops cun he have ? What aspirations ? What chance of leaving Am footpiints on the sands of time? For him, alus! therein nought but dark despair and self-reproach for a lost life. For a man to leave his footprints on the sands of time, he must be 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 enerjy to execute! But look at our Australian youth 1 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 his lootprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this sub* ject ? Do they ever ascertain the cause ol this decay ; and having done bo, do they (as I a strict sense of duty demands) «eek the skilled advice of the medical man, who has made tnis branoh of his profession his par* ticular speciality, whose life has been devoted to .he treatment of theao cases ? Reader, what is your unswer ? Let each one answer for himself, Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, «c the:n become emaciated old young mon, broken down in henlth, enfeebled, unfitted for tbe battle of life; yet one word might save them, one iiound and vigorous health-giving letter from a medical man, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such cases wou.' 1, in most instances, succeed in warning off toe impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated 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 those arising therd from his peculiar study. His whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Att'ectious and the Disecees incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all — no matter how nnly hundred* or thousand* of miles distant. Hia system of correspondence by letter is now so well orgauised and known, thut comment would be superfluous — (by this ".leaua many thousands ot patients have been cured, whom he has never seen md never known) ; and it it carried on with such judicious supervUon that though he has been practising this ihrm9J^Atia4>KQfet3for^a4.tmA£te\*i*>jm**t in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery bus ever yet happened. When Medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany these latfer, and a cure is effected without eyeu the phyaieiun knowing who is his patient. To Men and Women with Broken«c!own Constitutions, the Kervous, the Debilitated, ami all suffering from any Disease whatever, Dr L, L. SMITH'S plan of treatment com* mends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense f a personal visit, Addbess — DR. L. L SMITH, 182, COLLINS STRKET EAST, MELBOURNE.
