OPIUM AND WHISKY.
The Scientific Treatment Of These
Diseases
BY One of the Greatest Specialists Of the
Conntry--They Can BE Cured.

Perhaps there Us no habit, or more strict
ly speaking, disease, receiving more atten-
ton from scientific physicians just now
than that Of opium and whisky. Leading
spirits ell over the world have for the past
year been investigating these diseases, and
with great success. The country Of every
civilized nation is full OF reformatories for
those who are so unfortunate as to be under
the dreadful scourge Of either one Of the
monsters named.
Opium and whisky are without doubt
the causes of more unhappiness, misery and
heartaches than all other agencies COM
bined. Mothers spend days of anguish,
and weep over the fact that once dutiful
son, or q lovable daughter have fallen
victims to this dreadful scourges with
little hope Of their restoration. These two
diseases verify may be called twin devils,
capable OF generating aud spreading an
unmeasurable amount of misery and an
happiness throughout the world.
As has been srid, for years these two
habits or diseases have had the study of the
worlds greatest specialists, among whom
may be classed DIR. B. M, Woolley, one of
Atlantas leading citizens. He is a man
gray headed now, and has devoted his en-
tire time to the study Of the effects OF
opium aud whisky upon the system, and
whenever he has anything to say In refer
ence to the matter, the public may have the
assurance that it is the result Of years OF
constant thought and q lifelong practice.
DR.. Woolley has been living In Atlanta
nearly a quarter of a century, and has built
up practice that Is probably the largest Of
its kind in America. Personally speaking,
he is philanthropist, having given his life
to the relief of suffering humanity. He Is
a prominent member Of the Trinity IL E.
church, SOUTH in this city, and probably
does as much.gratuitous work as any physi-
clan in the United States.
1t has been said che 'works Of good
man praise him. and verify is this true In
DR.. Woolleys case He has letters and
testimonials from every civilized nation,
bearing the glad news of the effectiveness of
his remedies in restoring to perfect man
hood and womanhood those who were once
afflicted with the opium and whisky dis
eases. Ii all the testimonials, letters and
endorsements he has received were put In
book form, it would take volumes and
volumes to contain them.
There Is one thing about DR. Woolley's
treatment that is different from, most
specialists in this line, and that is he don't
people as a habit, but as O disease. 1t Is
wholly unnecessary to go into the logic of
this matter. His reasons are simple and
plain He considers them diseases, just as
much so as fever or smallpox is q disease,
and the cause must be eradIcated from the
system, else the patient will inevitably die
from the effects of them. If a person had
bad case Of typhoid fever, heis not kicked,
cursed and driven out because he is SO un-
fortunate as to be afflicted in that manner.
The very finest physicians are sent for, the
best nurses and the most careful diet are
furnished. Every sympathy, every atten-
ton is given to such a person, and justly
so, too. Fever Is q disease and is frequent
ly fatal. On the other hand, opium and
whisky drinking are diseases, yet instead
OF having that sympathy and that encour-
agement given to the person that is
afflicted with fever, he receive. nothing
but curses, SCOTS and vituperation, is
kicked out, and, Of course, not one in
thousand is ever cured by that means. 1t
is Dr. Woolleys firm belief that sympathy
and encouragement is as much necessary
in the treatment of these diseases as it is in
any other, and the physician or specialist
who fails to give them lacks great re-
storative element.
eminently successful in curing thousands
OF people all over the civilized world,
warrants this assertion
In order that the people may see and
know of his treatment Of these diseases in
every particular, he has, at a great expense,
prepared book which he will gladly send
to anyone who desires it 1t may be that
you who are reading this article are
afflicted with one OF these dreadful dis
eases, or have a relative, friend or &C
quaintance that is so afflicted. If so, re-
quest them to send to DR.. B. N. Woolley,
