crawling over Red-Hot Bars or Iroa In His Fearful Frenzy-A
 Scientific investigation and Its Results
"Opium or death,


 "Opium or deathl :"
 thls brief sentence was fairly hissed into the ear of a prominent druggist on
 Nine Street, by a person who, few years ago well oil, is tC C-day hopeless wreck.
 One can scarcely realize the sufferings oi an opium victim. De Quincy has yiNldly portrayed it. But who can fitly describe the joy Of the rescued victim 9
 II. (. Wilson, of LOveland, Ohio. formerly with March. HaTwood X Go. manufacturing chemists of St. Louis, and oi the we'll lknoWn firm of II. C. Wilson O., chemists, formerly of thls city, gave our reporter, recently, nit of thrilling personal experience in this line.
 "l have crawled over rea-hot bars sf iron and coals of fire" he said. 'in 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-teuths of cases commence. When I determined 10 stop, however. found could not do it.
 lou may be surprised to know, " he sad, 'tHat two-iiithS of the slaves of morphine and opium are phySirians. Many oi these l 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 a demoralized con ditlon of those organs; that the hope of a cure depended entirely upon the de- gree Of vigor which could be imparted 10 them. l have seen patients. while undergoing treatment, compelled 10 resort Co opium again tO deaden the horrible pain in those organs. marvel how ever escaped"
 "Do you mean to say, Mir. Wilson, that you have conquered the habIt?"
 Indeed | have
 Do you object to telling me how?"
 No. sir. Studying the matter with several opium-eating physicians, we became satisfied that the appetite for opium was located in the k:dneys and liver. Our next object was to find a specific for restoring those or-ans tO health. The physicians, much against their code, addressed their attention to q certain remedy, and became thor oushly convinced. on it's scientific merits alone, that it was the only one that could be relied upon in every case ot disordered kidneys and liver. thereupOn began using it and. supple menting It with my own special treat ment, finally got fully CN-r the habit. l may say that the most important part of the treatment. is To get those organs frs; 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 orig inate.
 "For the last seven years this posi- tion has been taken by the pvOprietOrs of that remedy, and finally it is becOm- ing an acknowledged scientific truth | among the medical profession; many of them, however, do not openly acknOw- | ledge it, and yet. knowing they have l no other scientific specific, their code | not allowing them to use IL, they buy 1t | upon the quiet, and prescribe u m their l own bottles.
 As | said before, the opium and | morphine habits can never be cured | until the appetite for them is routed | out of the kidneys and liver. have | tried everything, g,-experimcnted with | everything, and as the result Of my studies and investigation. l can say l | know nothing can accomplish this re- suit but Warmers Sale Cure"
 "Hays others tried your treatmcnt?"
 "1es. sir, many; and all who have | followed it fully have recovered. l Several of them who did not first treat | their kidneys and liver for six or eight | weeks, as l advised them, completely | failed. This form of treatment is al- | ways insisted upon for all patients, whether treated by mail or at the Love land Opium Institute; and, supple | mentet by our special private treat | mont, it always cures"
 Mir. Wilson stands very high wher- | ever known. His experience IS only | another proof of the wonderful and con | ceded power of Warmers Safe Cure | over all diseases of the kidneys, liver, and blood, and the diseases caused by | derangements of those organs We may | say that 1t k very ilattering to the pro- prietOTs of Warmers Safe Cure, that it | has received the highest medical en- dOrsement; and, after persistent study, | it is admitted by scientists that there is | nothing in uil;cTia medica for the | restoration Of those great organs that | equals it in power. We take pleasure l in publishing the above statements | coming from so re table q source as Mir. | Wilson, ant confirming by personal ex- peTience what We have time and again | published m our columns. We also | extend to the nroTr:e;Ors OUT hearty | congratulations on the results wrought | - iCinciunati Timcs-Star.
