When cocaine was discovered the medi-
cal world exclaimed "thank heavenp'
But useful as it is, it is also dangerous
especially when its use is perverted from
the 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 hui
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.
| cains habit is thousand times worse than
| the morphine and opium habits and you
would be astonished," he said eff you
knew how frightfully the habit is increas-
ing:m w
at is the worst constitution wrecker
ever known. 1t ruins the liver and kid
neys in half year, and when this work is
done, the strongest constitution soon sue
cumbs"
"Do you know of DR.. Underhill's case
here in CINCINNATI"
THAT leading physician who became q
victim OF the cocaine habit Yes. His
case was very sad one, but the habit can
be cured. l have rescued many a man

"What, worse than DR.. Underhill'si"
Indeed, sir, far so. Justin NJ. Hall, A.
NJ, NJ. D., president of the State Board Of
Health of Iowa, and famed practitioner,
and Alexander Neil, NJ. D., professor Of
surgery in the Columbus Medical College,
and president of the Academy Of Medicine,
a man widely known, Rev. W. P. Clancy,
of indianapolis, Ind, from personal ex-
perience in opium eating, etc, can tell you
of the kind of success our form Of treat
ment wins, and so can II. c. Wilson, for
merly Of Cincinnati, who is now asso-
| ciated with me-"
would you mind letting our readers
into the secret Of your methodist
"Well, young man, you surely have
good bit of assurance to ask a man to give
his business away to the public; but 1
won't wholly disappoint you. l have
treated over 10000 patients. In common
with many eminent physicians, /, for
years made a close study Of the effects of
the habits on the system and the organs
| which they most severely attack. DR..
Hall, DR.. Neil and Mr.. Wilson, whom 1
have mentioned, and hundreds of others,
| equally as expert, made many similar ex-
periments 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 be 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
oDd 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
cured without using it, because the habit
is nourished and sustained in the liver and
kidneys. The habit can be kept up in Nod
GRAFTON, however, if free use be also made,
at the same time, of that great remedy"
"Yes, it is wOrld famed and justly cell
ebrated specified Like many other physi-
clans, used to deride the claims made for
it, 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 most diseases originate in,
or are aggravated by, a depraved condi-
ton of the Kidneys
"People do not realize this, because,
singular as it may seem, the kidneys may
be in a very advanced stage of decomposi-
ton, 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 peo-
pie die every year of kidney disease I'M
knowingly. They have so called disorders
of the head, of the heart and lungs andstom-
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.. SUephens'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 hui
mainly.
