KANSAS CRY, Kan, June 1, 1895,
To OUR FRIENDSHIP employ this
method to advise you of our decision to
discontinue the Kelley institute at To-
peka and concentrate our business at
the Kelley institute of Kantas City,
Kan.
Our Kansas City institute already en-
joys the reputation of being one of the
most pleasant, best equipped and most
successful institutions of its class in the
west and we shall still further improve
its appointments to better accommodate
the increased attendance resulting from
a concentration of our work
DR.. James Y. Simpson, whose record
in the successful administration of DR..
Keeley's remedies for the cure of alco-
hol and other drug addictions is unsur-
passed, will continue as medical director
of the Kansas City institute, and we as
sure all who are in any manner interest
ed that the most careful, conscientious
and scientific administration of the
Kelley treatment can be secured at his
hands.
Please remember, there is now no
Kelley institute at, and DR.. Leslie E.
Keeley's remedies are not administered
in the city of Topeka. We have exclu-
sive control of DR.. Keeley.s remedies in
the state of Kansas, and the Kelley
treatment is administered by US only at
the Kelley institute, Portsmouth build
ing, Kansas City, Kan.
We extend to all a cordial invitation to
visit and inspect our institute, and to
give our work the most thorough and
careful investigation.
Very Respectfully,
TIE KELLEY INSTITUTE OF KANSAS.
By c. W. Wadsworth,
Business Manager.
By this change in the affairs of the Keeley
company, Topeka loses an institution
which during the three and one-half
years of its existence has accomplished
a wonderful work in the line of temper
ance reform Since the inauguration of
the Kelley work in Kansas over three
thousand men and women have through
this agency been freed from bondage to
alcoholics or opiates. OF this number
nearly six hundred have received treat
ment at Topeka They are now to be
found among the best citizens of
Kansas and surrounding states,
mingling in business and professional
circles in nearly every city and hamlet
in the west Many have been honored
by the people with high and responsible
positions, in fact scarcely a legislature of
any state, a political convention, bust
ness or laboring mans association, or
even United States congress convenes
but nun bers among its brightest mem
bers men who enjoy the possession of per
feet physique, strong, healthy, active brain
and cool Judgment, for which they give
full credit to the Kelley cure One di-
rect result of this work which is worthy
of notice is that over fifty Topeka men
are today living happy, prosperous lives,
enjoying complete emancipation from
thraldom to king alcohol. providing
we'll for now happy families, and in fact
living such exemplary lives as to cause
their nearest neighbors to forget they
have ever been addicted to drink, or
have taken the cure. While it is to be
regretted that the people who are car
rying on this grand work believe it to
their best interest to consolidate their
business at another place, it by no
means follows that the good work
must cease.
The Kelley Institute at Kansas City,
Kansas, which has since the in
this state been under the same
management as that at Topeka,
enjoys most enviable reputation
and is now without doubt the best
equipped institution of its class in the
west But two hours ride will take one
to their door, where the most perfect ad-
ministration of DR.. Keeley's remedies
can be secured, which is equivalent to
being assured of complete cure. for
that the Kelley cure cures has been de-
monstrated beyond a possible peradven-
ture.
Manager Wadsworth will remove his
headquarters to the Kansas City institute,
while Dr. Hamilton will after a short
rest again take up the Keeley work in
another state. His excellent qualitica-
tions as a physician and especially for
this line of practice are we'll known and
he has already received flattering propo-
sitions to assume charge of the medical
department OF Kelley institutes at other
points.
For thirty years the Royal has been
