NEW LIQUOR HABIT CURE
An Interview With a Representative
ofthe TreatmenG.

An interview " 18th a Representative
of the TreatmenG.
There has been considerable stir in
business circles for the past week
through the advent of Il new system
Of treatment for the liquor and NOR
phine habits. Learning that its rep
reseutatiycs were guests Of the Hotel
Quincy, Il reporter Of THE SENTINEL.
called and sought an interview. lie
was shown to tile apartments of Mr.
Chas. Williams. Munger. He vas
cordially received ana Mr.. Williams
acceded cheeriully to request for in
formation. The history and prospec-
tive future Of the system is given in
Mr.. Williams own language.
The system Of treatment which I
have the h NOR to represent is that Of
The kentucky and Ohio Liquor and
Opium Cure Company, corporation
| organized under the laws IF Kentucky
and with its general Office at Fiudlay,
Ohio. Most discoveries that have
| been of value to the race are the re-
suit of patient and devoted inyeSti
cation, research and experiment. Our
system OF treatment for the liquor
and morphine habits is no exception.
There have been systems OF treatment
for these habits before the people for
several years, all of them containing
many Objectionable features. Most
of them have had for their basis enc
or more violent, dangerous, mineral
poisons. Familiar with the accidents
and injuries resulting from their use
we sought a new. harmless and GER
tain remedy for the devastating evils
of strong drink. AS intimated. the
evil to be avoided was the use of any
form of mineral poison. Much study
and experiment resulted in the eyo-
luton OF system of treatment into
viii h no minerals enter, in other
words we possess a purely vegetable
treatment. IL is unnecessary to en-
large upon the great advantage to the
patient, of a vegetable over a mineral
system of treatment, it is patent to
al. The first important inquiry is al
ways, Will it cure p This system
has long since passed the period OF
experiment, it is now an established
fact. We have made haste slowly
preferring to perfect our system and
test it thoroughly before urging it up
on public notice, believing that if it
would accomplish what 1t was de-
signed to accomplish, it would reyOiu-
tioniZe the treatment of the habits
referred to and quite displace all 9th
er systems. 1t has now reached the
point where we can safely and COLI
scientiously push its claims with a
confidence born of crucial tests and
experience. Hundreds have been
treated under this system since its
in option without failure. We have
two Institutes now running. Appli-
cations and inquiries are being receiv-
ed from all sections of the country
| and we hope by the middle Of the sum-
mer to-haye arge number of insti-
| tutes in operation. The greatest OBJ
lection to all other systems of which
| have any knowledge is that of adj
ministering secret remedy. The
medical profession, that is the reput-
able portion, are unit in their oppo-
sition to it and rightly. No man or
set of men have any moral right to
administer to patient any remedy
whose ingredients and proportions are
not known.
Most of the accidents and injuries
to those who have sought relief from
the bondage of strong drink are trace
able directly to the fact that the ply
sician was ignorant in the respect re-
ferred to and was prescribing reme-
ely purchased from its inventors or
promoters. While our system Of
treatment is private, so far as the
public is concerned, the physician in
charge of an institute is in possession
o. duplicates of our formulas, knows
every ingredient that enters into the
composition Of our remedies. the pro-
portion of each, the effect of every in
5redient and the combination and is
able to recognize results when attain
ed. Better than all, the physician is
able to suit the treatment to the va
rying conditions of his patients.
While dipsomania is practically the
same in all cases yet there are Varia-
tlOnS and it is necessary to iDGiYidu-
alize each case. We attribute our
marvellous success in large meas
ure to the fact that our
physicians are able to pre-
scribe our remedies exactly as they
would prescribe any other remedies
for any other disease. Again our pa
tlents are not restricted in any way.
no dieting, no enforced, baths, no Wig
OrouS exercise, no Sanitorium regime.
We allow our patients all the liquor
desired until it is voluntarily relin-
quished. The length of time required
to establish a perfect cure of the liq-
uor habit is weeks and for the NOR
phine habit from 3 weeks, according
to the condition of the patient. Where
the patient resides 'at the location
of an institute there need be little de-
tentiOn from business or employment
We like to have the time of the pa
tient for the first three or four days,
while the appetite is leaving him. but
after that he can come and go at will
provided only that he reports regular
ly, four times daily for treatment
The method of treatment is hyperder-
mic and internal and the terms SO 90
for cure of the liquor habit and I'VE
guarantee cure" There is no reason
for the drinker discharged by us ever
returning to his cups. We leave him
with clear brain, bright eye, yigor-
Gus appetite, all faculties and func-
tions restored, able to sleep soundly
and sweetly. Under such circum-
stances man who would drink again
would be little short of mailman.
