" Lives of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime And departing, leave behind us. Footprints on the sands of time.

THE above is read with great interest b

thousands of young men. It inspires them with HOPE, for in the bright lexicon of youth there is no such word as fail. Alas say many, this is correct-is true with regard 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 yielded himself up the temporary sweet allure-ments of vice, who has given unbridled license to his passions, to him the above lines are but as a reproach. What HOPE can he have What aspirations ? What chance of leaving HIS footprints on the sands of time ? For him, alas ! there is nought but dark despair and self-reproach FOR A LOST LIVE.

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 energy to execute I But look at our Australian youth ! 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 saying that man to leave HIS footprints on the sand of time.

Do parents, medical men, and educators of South pay sufficient attention to this subject to

they ever ascertain the cause of this decay and having done so, do they (as a strict sense of duty demands) seek the skilled advice of the medical man, who has made this branch of his profession his particular speciality, whose life

as been devoted to the treatment of these cases 1 Reader, what is YOUR answer 1 Let each one answer for himself. Parents see their prog by failing gradually before their sight, and see them become emaciated old young men, broken down in health, enfeebled, unfitted for the 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 vigour, and ensure a joyous and happy life.

Dr. L. L. SMITH, of Melbourne, has made the diseases of youth, and those arising therefrom, 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 many hundreds or thousands of miles distant. His system of correspondence by letter is now so well organised and known that comment would be superfluous (by this means many thousands of patients have been cured, whom he has never seen or never known

and it is carried on with such judicious supervision that though he has been practising the branch of profession for twenty-six years in these colonies, no single instance of accidental discovery has ever yet happened. When Medicines are required, these are forwarded in the same careful manner, without the possibility of the contents of the parcels being discovered. Plain and clear directions accompany these Utter, and a cure is effected without even the physician knowing who is the patient.

To Men and Women with Broken-down Con-stitutions, the Nervous, the Debilitated, and al) suffering from any Disease whatever, Dr. L. L, SMITH'S plan of treatment commends itself, avoiding, as it does, the inconvenience and expense of a personal visit.

CAUTION TO PURCHASERS.

The value of this well-known Family Medicine has been largely tested in all parts of the world, and by all grades of society, for upwards of Fifty Years. Its well-earned extensive sale has induced SPURIOUS IMITATIONS, some of which, in outward appearance, so closely resemble the original as to have deceived many purchasers. The proprietor therefore feels it due to the public to give a special caution against the use

of such imitations.

Purchasers are therefore requested carefully to observe the four following distinctive characteristics, without which none are genuine :

1st. - In every case the words JOHN STEADMAN, CHEMIST, WALWORTH, SURREY, are engraved on the Government Stamp affixed

to each Packet.

2nd. Each Single Powder has directions for the dose, and the words, John Steedman, Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, printed thereon.
