Public Hotiees. " Lives of great men all remind us, We can u>ake our lives sublime } And, ifepartinir, leave behind us Footprint* on the sands of time." THE above is read with great interest by th<m*am7e of young men. It inspires them with llopb, for in the bright lexicon of -cuth there i« no such word us fail, llasf sa> many, this is correct, — is true with "Jgard to the youth who has never abused his strength— and to the man who has not been ' passion's slave." But to that youth— to that man, who has waoted his vigor, who has yielded himself up to the temporary sweet allurements of vice, who has given unbridled license to bis passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. What Hoca can be bare t . What aspirations ? What ettauoe of leaving Mr footpiints on the sand* of HmeP For him, alas ! there t« nought but durk despair and self-reproach for a lott life. For a man to leave his ootprints on tbe sands of time, be mu»t be endowed with a strong brain and nervous power. He must possess a sound, vigorous, healthy mind, iv a healthy body —the power to conceive— the energy to execute 1 But look at our Australian youth 1 See the emaciated form, the vacant look, the listless hesitating manner, the n.ivnus distrust, the senseless, almost idiotic expression. Note his demeanour and conversation, and then say, Is that a man to leave hi* footprints on the sands of time. Do parents, medical men and educators of youth pay sufficient attention to this subject P Do they ever ascertain the cause oi this decay ; and having done no, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) *eek the skilled advice of the medical man, who lias made tbis branch of his profession his par ticular speciality, whose life has been devoted to he treatment of these cases P Reader, I what is you,- answer P Let eaoh one answer (or himself, Parents see their progeny fading gradually before their sight, see them become emaciated old young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for tbe battle of life; yet one word might save them, one sound and vigorous health*giviug letter from a medical nan, habituated to the treatment and continuous supervision of such oases wou.' 1, in most instances, succeed in warning off tne impending doom of a miserable and gloomy future, and by appropriate treatment restore the enervated system to its natural vigor, and ensure a joyous aud bappy life. Dr L. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth and those arising therd from bis peculiar study, flis whole professional life has been especially devoted to the treatment of Nervous Afftctious and the Diseases incidental to Married Life. His skill is available to all— no mutter how moy hutdred* or thousanda of miles distac t. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well orgauised and known, tbnt comment would be superfluous— (by this .leans mauy thousands ol patients hare been cured, whom he has never seen and never known) ; and it is carried on with such judicious supervUou that though he has been practising this branch of bis profession for twenty-six yeurs in these colonies, no single instance of acoidental discovery has ever yet happened. When Medicines are required, these ar« forwarded in the same careful manner without a possibility of tbe contents ot tbe parcels being discovered, Plain and dear directions accompany these latter, and a cure is eoVoted without eyen the phyician knowing who is ; his patient. To Men and Women with Broken-Oown Constitutions, tbe ftervous, the Debilitated, and all suffering from any Disease whatever, Dr L, L. SMITH'S plan ol treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, tbe inconvenience aud expense f a personal visit. Addbms — DR. L. L SHITS, IW, OuLUNa STRtiKI KAST. MKLBOOItNB.
