HOW MEN ARE REDEEMED.
SAVED FROM THE TERRORS or
ALCOHOL AND NARCOTICS.
The Famous and Meritorious Hagey
Treatment-Doing Its Work Well
Here-Routs Bad Habits.

The Hagey Bi-Chloride of Gold In
stitute of Honolulu, recently opened
in the Arlington cottage on Hotel
street, has started in upon a useful
and important work, and has already
accomplished most flattering and sat
isfactory results.
This institution is one of seventy IN
good working order in the United
States. and is the child of an extensive
branch establishment in San Jose m
! 1898. The treatment is the result Of
seven years of experimenting by the
famous DR.. Hagey of Norfolk, Nebras-
ka, with the accidental discovery or
invention of DR.. D'Unger of Chicago.
Messrs. Cowart and Kirkpatrick, the
gentlemen who founded the San Jose
branch, are at the head of the insti-
tute here. DR.. James T. Wayson is at
tending and DIR. George Herbert con-
sulting physician.
The Hagey people proceed upon the
basis that the liquor, morphine and
tobacco habits are diseases; that the
victim is not moral delinquent but
a physically diseased man. 1t is then
held that the disease must be eradi
Gated just as any other physical all
ment by proper medical treatment.
For getting at the root of these dis
eases it is scientifically recognized
that nothing is better than gold. in
addition to this, however, the Hagey
people have formulated and prescribe
treatment of their own for building
up the nerve centers and restoring the
deprecated manhood. With the hypo-
dermic treatment goes another, a
tonic. This is taken at stated hours.
The result is that when the patient
graduates from the institute, or com
pletes the course of treatment, he is
IA new man, physically and morally
strong, and has no need nor desire for
stimulants of any kind.
\ feature of the treatment is that
it is absolutely harmless. Never has
a patient suffered the least from it.
One of the processes of the treatment
is to drive out through the pores Of
the skin the impurities lodged in the
system from long use of alcoholic
stimulants or tobacco. The principal
diseases directly eradicated are: al
coholism, narcotism, tobacco, etc,
nervous exhaustion and some of the
causes of heart disease and neuralgia.
The effect of the treatment is not
disagreeable. In few days the crav-
pears. After week the patient takes
on new vigor and sees the light of Il
new manhood before him. This con-
tinues on until the mind clears, the
eyes are bright, ambition returns and
the patient feels once more the pride
of self and the determination to be
once more a man. This course for
the liquor habit is three weeks; NOR
phine, four weeks; tobacco, two
weeks.
In addition to the medical treatment
Messrs. Cowart and Kirkpatrick throw
around their patients at the Institute
a healthy, moral influence. The par
lors of the cottage have been hand
somely fitted up and made as bright
and cheering as possible. There is a
reading room, baths, pool table and
apartments for various pastimes. Pa
tients are invited to spend their even
ings there, and they do so. This takes
them away from their old-time COM
panions and the allurements from
which they are seeking to escape.
Last night a Hagey club was
formed, having for its object the pro-
motion of the social feature of the
treatment. A man who was formerly
bookkeeper at a salary of $4,000 pei
annum, but who has been common
street drunk for several years, drafted
the constitution and bylaws for the
club. He has taken the treatment and
has been cured-is new man. Other
men who have sacrificed equally
bright prospects to drink may be
found in the club. They have turned
new leaves, and have started out with
the determination to make something
of themselves and be something in the
community. Twelve such men are
taking the treatment; it is hoped
many more will follow their good eX
ample.
