An ALARMING STATE OF AFFAIRS
CRIME ON THE INCREASE!
For Which Liquor is Largely Re,
spOnsible.
A Successful Home Treatment.

Nearly q billion of dollars are IN
for intoxicating drinks, n significant
and to many persons, III appalling fact ;
and the sad thought in connection with
it all is, n large proportion of this
enormous amount of money is spent in
this way by those persons who can ill
afford to do so. Money that should go
for bread and clothing should not be
spent in n way that ultimately, invaria-
bly, brings wretchedness, poverty and
woe in its train to the drunkard and
his kin.
The nation is becoming diseased
through the disease of drunkenness 4:
what shall the remedy beP Various
remedies are proposed, among which
are high license, to some persons a
remedy by which the golden age is TO
come to America; others fancy that in
ture and sale of Intoxicating liquors
the complex problem of strong drink is
to be satisfactorily solved. Drunken
ness, however, is not SO much n matter
for legislation as il is a disease needing
medicine, for scientists the world over
agree that drunkenness is u disease
born of the drink habit, and that il
may be handed down from parent to
child.
The important question is: Can the
desire for and the habit of strong drink
be curedP There is nothing more posi-,
lively certain than that drunkenness
can be cured. Alcoholic poison Il be
eliminated from the system. Thousands
of testimonials from the country oveI
testify to the fact that DR.. IIaines'
Golden Specific will do the work effect
lively, the only infallible remedy fol
drunkenness-the most marvellous dis,
cOvery of this present century. In the
hands of the government it would ac,
complish a thousand times more than
all her methods for the prevention OF
crime with moral suasion thrown in,
This word of caution: avoid the deadly
sanltarium, the majority of which places
will take all your money and give you
nothing in return. Be treated at homo
for positive permanent results, with an
effectual yet harmless remedy, ut n cost
of money within the reach of the most
limited in means. II can be given in
a cup of tea or coffee without the knowl-
edge of the person taking it.
"The half will never be told regard
ing the merits of DR.. Haines' Golden
| Specific, as a positive, permanent pre-
tentative and cure of the liquor hibit,'
was the remark of an enthusiastic and
cultured gentleman the other day. The
truthfulness of this remark is attested
by multitudinous testimonials. A bold
but truthful statement is: Drunkenness
is durable, s'but in all the world is but
one cure,'' and that cure is DR.. Haines'
Golden Specific.
There is no disease that yields so in
evitably to medicine as the horrible dis
ease of drunkenness to this Specific.
Harmless in its effects upon the human
system, it invigorates the system and
destroys all desire for alcoholic stimu-
lants, while the directions for the home
treatment are so simple that Il child
need make no mistake. Write Golden
Specific Co., Cincinnati, Ohio, fol-
pamphlet descriptive of DR.. Haines'
Golden Specific, with many truthful
testimonials. This is your opportu-
nifty.
