BAD HABIT CURED.
1cstim"ny from Man who was
cured Of opium Habit


To the Hawaiian Hagey Institute;
Dear Sir:-Enlivened by the
deepest gratitude for the great
change that has been brought
about in my life through the
agency Of the Hagey Institute, L
take this means of thanking you
and giving testimonial as to the
merit of your cure, with the hope
that it may be means of saving
others from life of wretchedness
and degradation.
Fourteen years ago L was per-
suaded by an acquaintance of
mine to try opium for the purpose
of alternating me from all distress.
ing pains, and without thinking
at the time he advised me to do so
that L would become slave to the
use Of it, but after using opium
only three days it firmly fastened
the habit upon me. Many a kind
friend had asked me to make de-
termined effort to cast the abonin-
able stuff aside forever, but that
was a matter of impossibility,
and my good, sincere and earnest
resolutions were like chaff before
the wind. Blessed with strong
constitution, l have been able to
stand the constant drain on my
vital sources until the last month.
My excessive use of the drug is
we'll known fact to the people of
this city.
On the 18th day of January,
1897, L entered the Institute, met
the officers in charge, had con-
versation and received their pro.
position; mo cure, no pay;"-
and Immediately took the treat
ment for 30 days. Shortly after
taking the remedy l began to feel
better. | now have wonderful
appetite. | eat four hearty meals
a day and sleep like baby.
1t was dreadful plight to be
in, though, just at that particular
stage of the treatment, and it is
my actual belief that if l had not
entered the Institute as soon as |
did | would surely have died. Il
here state for the benefit of those
who are so unfortunate as to be
similarly afflicted: Take my ad-
vice and take the Hagey treat
ment, and get rid of the dreadful
habit.
Oh, what a gladstone relief when
it is all over. AS to the effect of
the remedy while using it, can
truly say that there is nothing in
furious or unpleasant about it at
all. The treatment has made a
decided improvement in my con.
dition, both mentally and physi-
caily. 1t has done' a marvellous
thing for me, and it will do the
same for all of my friends and ac-
quaintances, who are addicted to
the use Of opium, who will adhere
and follow my example, and l
therefore urgently ask all to take
the Hagey cure without delay.
There is no confinement whatever
while under treatment.
L am a changed man and free
from the curse, and if at any time
L can be of service to my fellow
men who are addicted to the use
Of opium, l will happily do SO
and unhesitatingly.
May prosperity ever. attend the
Hagey Institute, and may its
name be declared throughout
these Islands as noble institu-
ton that is elevating humanity to
a proper and useful standard in
life.
In conclusion, | desire to espe-
cially thank the kind and gen
erous friend who has pecuniarily
me; to DR.. Wayson,
physician in charge; to Mr.. 7. +.
Cowart, for the untiring, patient,
and attentive services rendered me
at the Institute, and it affords me
great pleasure in giving my testi.
monial to the power of remedy |
for opium, morphine and cocaine |
habits. also regard it as one
of the most remarkable discoveries
yet produced to the light of this
progressive world.
The day l entered the Institute
l weighed but ITO pounds, and
since that time my weight has in
creased to 1876 pounds.
YOurS most Dratefully
