HS~The Houston Narcotic Cure
Institute is fast making reputa-

the cure for the liquor habit is
unparalleled. Those who have
taken the cure say, not only is the
tase for liquor entirely lost, but it
becomes very repulsive to the
taste and smell. 1t is claimed by
experts that the Houston is the
best and safest cure known to sci
ence. There is always gain in
flesh, vigor and strength while
taking treatment. 1t is safe,
