SPECIAL NOTICES
CURING CURES DRUNKENNESS!
CURING CURES MORPHINE HABIT!
CURING CURES TOBACCO HABIT!

Drunkards are cursed with a craving.
gnawing appetite for alcoholic drink.
which appetite they cannot control or
has an inherited predisposition as a con-
stitutional cause. and with such tne
hereditary vice is easily aroused to actlv-
ity and becomes an irresistible controlling
influence.
1t is not civilized mans natural dis
position te relinquish al that serves ,io 20
desire for drink. Such, however. Is the
case with dipsomaniacs. The periodical
oiogical changes, as he indulges but sell
dom. and allows the system time TO re.
cover by eliminating the poison before X
has time to cause tissue injuries.
Although such men sometimes go to
terrible excesSes, in some instances pro
longing the debauch for several weeks
they either have great appetite ana con-
sumo much food, or else they depend
entirely on the liquor for aliment.
When quantities of food are ingested
it exercises protecting influence. keep
ing the gastric functions busy, neutraliz-
ing to a large extent the poisonous effect
OF the liquor, and therefore tonding 10
equaiize the circulation. When the desire
for food is completely suppressed by the
liquor the system is left unprotected 10
organs receive the full effects of the
stimulant.
Many persons in the prime of life per-
suade themselves that moderate use or
liquor taken regularly, even on an empty
stomach, will cause no detrimental re-
suits. as they experience no immediate
disagreeable symptoms. Many Will even
claim that their systems demand the
stimulus and that marked Dement'S follow
its use.
No more fallacious or deceptive idea
can be entertained by a healthy man.

ated to the abuse as it does to the mar.
cotic poisons-opium, hashish. choral or
tobacco; but let such persons discontinue
its use for any reason. and FOR weeks
they must suffer with loss of appetite,
fever, pains or palptation, with perhaps
constipation and nervous irritability ana
loss of flesh.
The system has in such cases from
long abuse become changed and demands
NAL standard created by the liquor. With
hope and all the finer emotions and sensi-
bilities crushed, the victims of the liquor
habit are only capable of CAUSING tears
and shame to all connected with them;
No higher mission comes to the MEDICAL
man-no greater credit can attach TO his
skill-than to find a treatment that can
stay this torrent of misery that flows so
relentlessly over its bed of human
hearts"
Even more than alcohol the opium
habit holds its thousands of victims in
degrading slavery. Since the introduc-
nicious juice. of the poppy has destroyed
myriads of human bodies and minds
among the fairest and brightest women
and most intellectual of men: The medi-
cal profession, with occasional excep-
tions, are too apathetic with respect to
this haunting vice.
They are too often open to greater
charge than apathy-they have been in

poet inscribed the terrible warning:
