H1ASnt Drivers
Up to yesterday afternoon about half
past three O'Clock six families lived in the
old two-story eight-room frame tene-
ment on North Main street just south off
the Carolina house. In everv room there
was a cooking stove. and the stovepipes
were run through walls with not the
greatest care. About $50 yesterday the
building caught FIRE fro" one of these de-
fective hues and there was trouble right

An alarm was sounded and the occu-
pants tumbled out of the bidding IN

alarm struck facts were brought out
which will not impress the citizen of

CAN TIE CRAVINGS
STRONG DRINK BE CURED /?

1t is needless to moralize on the direful
to excess. Moralists have written
thousands of books thereon; philanthro-
pists have founded asylums and reform
atories; physicians have 1abored and ex-
postulated;' wives 9and mothers have
pleaded tearfully, yet the terrible fact
remains that the curse is more rampant
than ever. What Is to be done? Legis-
lation has proved una vailing. So far
it goes, law is right; but appetite ca mot
be controlled by the statute book We
must treat the drink habit intelligently
and understandingy, and when we
claim it is disease and should be tt Gated
such, believe we have come near
the method by which the problem can
be solved.
Arguments, threats and punishment
have proved futile. Let US now try
son and common sense. Drunkenness is
the outcome of a nervous disease, either
acquired inherited. The patient, in the
great majority of cases, is willing, nay
| anxious, to be cured. His will power,
however, has become paralyzed, and he
must have all the aid obtaina Sle to re-
| new the battle for the recovery of his
| manhood, and maintain it successfully.
The Houston Narcotic Cure Company
| make urgent appeal to the public in
| the interest OF humanity, temperance and
| reform. We would respectfully ask that
all good people lend tLcir aid and that
| church, charity and temperance organiza-
| tions, also all persons who have seen and
| felt the influence and evil effects resulting
from the of alcohol or narcotics in
| their own families otherwise co oper-
ate with us in securing the attendance
| at our institute for the treatment of men
and women who have been so unfortu-
nate as to fall victims to the excessive
use OF alcohol, opium, morphine or to-
| bacco. We guarantee an absolute cure
