Opium or DEATH"
This brief sentence was fairly Kissed into
the ear of prominent drugs st on Vine street
by a person who, few years ago well of, is
to-day hopeless wreck.
One can scarcely realize the sufferings of
an opium victim. De Quincy has wildly
portrayed it. But who can fifty describe the
Joy OF the rescued victim2
III. c. Wilson, of Loveland, o., formerly
with March, HARDWOOD & Co., manufacturing
chemists, of ST. Louis, and of the well known
firm of n. G. Wilson & Co., chemists, for
merly of this city, gave our reporter yester-
day bit of thrilling personal experience in
this line.
~ have crawled over red hot bars of iron
and Goals of fire." he said Sin my agony
during an opium frenzy. The very thought
of my sufferings freezes my blood and chills
my bones. was then eating over thirty
grains of opium daily"
"How did you contract the habit?"
Excessive business cares broke me down
and my doctor prescribed opium. That is
the way nine-tenths of cases commence.
When / determined to stop, however, l
found could not do it.
''You may De surprised to know" he said,
that two-ffths of the slaves of morphine
and opium are physicians. Many of these
/ met. We studied our cases carefully. We
found out what the organs were in which the
appetite was developed and sustained; that
no victim was free from demoralized con-
dition of those organs; that the hope of
cure depended entirely upon the degree of
vigor impaired to them. l have seen pa
tients, while undergoing treatment, COM
PEELED to resort TO opium again to deaden
the horrible pain in those organs. l marvel

do you mean to say, Mr.. Wilson, that
you have conquered the habit2i
Indeed have.''
''DO you object to telling me how?''
mo, sir. Studying the matter with sew
eral opium eating physicians, we became
satisfied that the appetite for opium was
located in the kidneys and liver. Our next
object was to find specific for restoring
those organs to health. The physicians,
much against their code, addressed their
attention to certain remedy and became
| thoroughly convinced on its scientific merits
alone that it was the only one that could be
relied upon in every case of disordered kid
neys and liver. L thereupon began using it
and, supplementing it with my own special
| treatment, finally got fully over the habit.
i may say that the most important part of
the treatment is to get those organs first
| into good working condition, for in them
| the appetite originates and is sustained and
| in them over ninety per cent. of all other
| human ailments originate"
"For the past seven years this position has
| been taken by the proprietors OF that reme-
| dy and finally it is becoming an acknowl.
edged scientific truth among the medical pro-
fession; many of them, however, do not
| openly acknowledge 1t, and yet, knowing
they have no other scientific specific, their
code not allowing them to use il, they buy it
upon the quiet and prescribe it in their own
| bottles"
GAS said before, the opium and NOR
| phine habits can never be cured until the APP
| petite for them is routed out OF the kidneys
and l1vpr I have tried pvprvthiDO-QYnori-
mented with everything and as the result of
my studies and investigations, / can say
know nothing can accomplish this result but
Warmers safe cure"
Have others tried your treatment"
eyes sir, many; and all who have follow
them who did not first treat their kidneys
and liver for SIX or eight weeks, as l advised
them, completely failed. This form of treat
ment is always insisted upon for all patients,
whether treated by mail or at the LovelaRd
Opium Institute, and supplemented by our
| special private treatment, it always cures"
Mr.. Wilson stands very high wherever
known. His experience is only another
proof of the wonderful and conceded power
| of Warmers safe cure over all diseases of
the kidneys, liver and blood, and the dis
eases caused by arrangement of those
organs. We may say that it is very fatter-
| ing to the proprietors of Warmers safe cure
that he has received the highest medical in
dorsement and, after persistent study, it is
| admitted by scientists that there is nothing
| in materia medica for the restoration of those
great organs that equals it in power. We
take pleasure in publishing the above state
| ments coming from so reliable a source as
| Mr.. Wilson and confirming by personal ex-
perience what we have time and again pub
lished In our columns. We also extend to
| the proprietors our hearty congratulations
on the results wrought.
