The Worst Slavery Known-New Revela-
nons of Power.
Cincinnati Times-Star.
When cocaine was discovered the medical
world exclaimed 'thank heaven!"
But useful as it is, it is also dangerous, es-
pecially when it's use is perverted from the
deadening Of pain for surgical operations,
TO the stimulation and destruction of the
human body. It's first effects are soothing
and captivating but the thralldom is the
most horrible slavery known to humanity.
y. l.. Stephens, M. D., of Lebanon, o.,
was interviewed by ourreporter, yesterday,
aG The Grand Hotel, and during the CONVEX
satlon the doctor said: "The cocaine habit
is Thousand times worse than the NOR
phine and opium habits, and you would be
astonished," he said, ''if you knew how
irightfully the habit is increasing
What are it's effects?"
ut is the worst constitution wreck or
ever known. 1t ruins the liver and kidneys
in half year, and when this work is done,
the strongest constitution soon succumbs."
DO you know Of DR.. Underhills case
here in Cincinnati?"
''That leading physician who became a
victim of the cocaine habit? Yes. His
case was very sad one, but the habit can
DE cured. have rescued many a man from
worse condition"
What, worse than DR.. Underhills?"
Indeed, sir, far so. Justin M. Hall, A.
M, M. D., president of the State Board of
Health OF Iowa, and a famed practitioner,
and Alexander Neil, M. D., professor of sur
gerry in the Columbus Medical College, and
president of the Academy OF Medicine,
man widely known, Rev. w. p. Clancy Of
indianapolis, Ind, from personal expert
ence in opium eating, etc., can tell you of
the kind of success our form of treatment
wins, and SO can FL. G. Wilson, formerly of
Cincinnati, who is now associated with me-"
would you mind letting our readers in
to the secret OF your methodist"
Well, young man, you surely have g.
good bit OF assurance to ask a man to give
his business away to the public; but I won't
wholly dlsappoint you. / have treated over
10000 patients. In common with many
eminent pb ysicians, for years made close
study OF the effects ofthe habits on the sys.
tenn and the organs which they most severe
ly attack. DR.. Hall, DR.. Neil and Mr.. Will
SCH, whom have mentioned, and hundreds
OF others, equally as expert, made many
similar experiments on their own behalf. We
each found that these drugs worked most
des tructively in the kidneys and liver; in
TACT, finally destroyed them. 1t was then
apparent that no cure could be effected un-
I'll these organs could be restored to health.
We: recently exhausted the entire
range OF medical science, experiment.
ing with all known remedies for
these organs, and as the result of
these close Investigations we all sub
stantially agreed, though following different
lines of inquiry, that the most reliable,
scientific preparation, was Warmers safe
cure. This was the second point in the dis
covery. 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 sale
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 cured without using
it, because the habit is nourished and sus-
tanned in the liver and kidneys. The habit
can be kept up moderation however, if
free use be also made, at the same time. of
that great remedy"
Eyes, it is world famed and Justly cele-
brated specified Like many other physi-
clans, l used to deride the claims made for
1t, but | know now for fact that it is the
worlds greatest blessing, having sovereign
power over hitherto incurable diseases of
the kidneys and liver, and when l have
said that, young man, / have said nearly
every thing, for mosG diseases originate in,
or are aggravated by, a depraved condition
of the kidneys"
O. People do not realize this, because,
singular as it may seem, the kidneys may
be in q very advanced stage of decomposi-
ton, and yet owing to the fact that there
are but few nerves of sensation n them, the
subject will not experience much pain there
in. On this account thousands of people
die every year OF kidney disease unknow-
ingly. They have so-called disorders of the
head, of the heart and lungs and stomach,
and treat them in vain, for the real cause of
their misery is deranged kidneys and if they
were restored to health the other 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 humani-
ty.
