CURING CURES DRUNKENNESS!
CURING CURES MORPHINE HABIT!
CURING CURES TOBACCO HABIT!


Drunkards are cursed with craving
RnaWing appetite for alcoholic urihk.
which appetite they cannot controI or
satisfy This morbid appetite frequently
has an inherited predispositioh s,s as e1 tne
stitutional cause, and with such tne
hereditary vice Is easily aroused 70 ,;,, ait,, ~
ity and becomes an Irresistible controlilng
influence.
1t is not civilized mans natural dls-
position to relinquish all that serves 70
make life happy in order TO sallsiy uis
case with dipsomaniacs. The periodical
drunkard presents no such positive pain
illogical changes, as he INDUCES put sci
cover by eliminating the poison before l.
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 uepenu
entirely on the liquor for aliment.
When quantities of food are ingested

of the liquor. and therefore tendlng 70
equalize the circulation When the desire
for food is completely suppressed by tne
liquor, the system is left unprotected to
the mercy of the alcohol and the nervous
organs receive the full effects Oh the
stimulant.
Many persons in the prime of life per-
suade themselves that moderate use OF
liquor taken regularly, even on an empty
stomach. will cause no detrimental re-
suits. as they experience no immedlate
disagreeable symptoms. Many Will even
claim that their systems demand the
stimulus and that marked benefits follow
Its use.
No more fallacious or deceptive idea
can be entertained by healthy man.
The system. it is true becomes habitu-
ated to the abuse as it does to the mar
cotic poisons-opium, haShSh, chloral or
tobacco; but let such persons discontinue
its use for any reason, and Tor weeks
they must suffer with loss of appetite
fever pains or palpitation. with perhaps
constipation and nervous irr1tabillty ana
loss of flesh.
The system has in such cases from
long abuse become changed and demands
it's regular poison to sustain the abnor-
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 it's thousands of victims in
degrading slavery. Since the introduce
tion of the hypodermc syringe the per-
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 a greater
charge than apathy-they have been in
strumental in teaching thousands the
way to the worse (because truer) inferno
than that over which the great Italian
poet inscribed the terrible warning:
"Who enters here leaves hope behind"
