signed under protest, at his earnest
request. However, / knew that /
could not keep it, for alcohol had the

concluded l would go down and try
the Mail and Express Morrell Liquor
Cure.
Il took the cure, and from that
time until this | have been able to
resist, and have not let drop of

health and physical powers, and
made me different man.

The next witness was woman.

city and could always command
good salary before | became a slave
to drink. | was finally dragged
down into the gutter and in such
condition that ! was ashamed to
mention my own name, for | came
from an excellent family in St.
. Louis. | was in this condition when
a friend advised me to take the Nor
rell cure. l refused at first. Ny
! friend urged me so strongly and con-

my example there are y women, who
were once in much the same condition
that l was, in the Margaret Strachen
| Home in West Twenty-seventh
street, who have taken the Mail and
Express Morrell cure and who are
now entirely cured, while seven

there, and says he hopes soon to be
able to add arrangemements for
treating drunkards by this method.
