THE COCAINE HABIT.
Tic Worst slavery Known-Ncw Revela-
tions of Power.

When cocaine was discovered the medi.
cal world exclaimed "thank heavenm
But useful as it is, 1t is also dangerous,
especially when its use is perverted from
tho deadening of pain for surgical opera
tions, to the stimulation and destruction Of
the human body. Its first effects are sooth-
ing and captivating but the thralldom is
the most horrible slavery known to hu-
manity.
j. l.. Stephens, NJ. D., of Lebanon, O.,
was interviewed by our reporter yester-
day at the Grand Hotel, and during the
conversation the doctor said: The CO.
caine habit is n thousand times worse than
the morphine and opium habits, and you
would be astonished,h he said, "if you
knew how frightfully the habit is increas-
.ngi~1 or,,..p,
alt is the worst constitution wrecker
ever known. 1t RUNS the liver and kid
neys in half n year, and when this work is
done, the strongest constitution soon sue
cumbs."
"Do you know OF Dr. Underhill's case
THAT leading physician who became
victim of the cocaine habit! Yes. His
case was a very sad one, but the habit can
be cured. l have rescued many man

iEto tho secret of your methodist"
We'll, young man, YOU surely have
good bit of assurance to ask man to give
his business away to the public; but
went wholly disappoint you. have
treated over 10000 patients. In common
with many eminent physicians, l, for
years made close study of the effects OF
tho habits on the svstem AMI the organs
which they most severely attack. DR..
Hall, DR.. Neil and Mr. Wilson, whom
have mentioned, and hundreds of Others,
equally as expert made many similar ex-
perimeuts on their own behalf. We each
found that these drugs worked most de-
structively in the kidneys and liver; in
fact, finally destroyed them. 1t was then
apparent that no cure could De Effected
until those organs could be restored to
health. We recently exhausted the entire
range of medical science, experimenting
with all known remedies for these organs,
and as the result of these close investiga-
tions we all substantially agreed, though
following different lines of inquiry, that
the most reliable, scientific preparation,
was Warmers safe cure. This was the sec
ond point in the discovery. The third was
our own private form of treatment, which,
of course, we do not divulge TO the public.
Every case that we have treated first with
Warmers safe cure, then with our own
private treatment and followed up again
with Warmers safe cure for a few weeks,
has been successful. These habits can't be

kidneys. The habit can be kept mp in mod
Grafton, however, If free use be also made,
at the same time, of that great remedy"
"Yes, it is world fame and justly cell
ebrated specified Like many other physi-
cinns, used to dsride the claims made for
it, but know now for fact that it is the
worlds greatest blessing, having sovereign
power over hitherto incurab!e diseases of
tho kidneys and liver. and when have
said that, young man, have said nearly
everything, for most diseases originate in,
or are aggravated by, depraved condi-
ton of the kidneys"
"People do not realize this, because,
singular as it may seem the Kidneys may
be in very advanced stage of decomposi-
tion, and yet owing to the fact that there
are but few nerves OF sensation in them
the subject will not experience much pain
therein. On this account thousands OF poo
pie die every year of kidney disesse un-
knowingly. They have so called disorders
of the head, of the heart and lungs and stom-
ach, and treat them in vain, for the real
cause of their misery is deranged kidneys
and if they were restored TO health the 9th.
er disorders would soon disappear"
Dr. Stephens's experience, that can be
confirmed by many thousands whom he
has treated, adds only more emphasis to
the experience of many hundreds of thou
sands all over the world, that the remedy
he refers to is without any doubt the most
benefcent discovery ever given to hu,
manity.
