The Drink Cure.

break him of the habit. | have
heard that by putting whlskey,
brandy, etc, in the food eaten by a
drinking man the taste of 1t be-
comes so nauseatlng that the habit,
the desire for it. is entirely and per-
manently broken. Will you kindly
advise me as to whether this is cor
rect or not, and oblige a constant
reader of your peerless journal.
Yours IN perplexlty,
Mrs. A. MARTINI
We can perhaps answer your
question better by relating au ex-
perience of ours IN which we were
the innocent lamb intended for the
cruel slaughter. Some years ago
our wife got the same bunch that
has jolted you, and which we think
originated with some water wagon
man possessing a smattering of
Latin (Sin1iIin Si711iLibAs cur
N7ttJtr.) We had been in the habit
of knocking our home cooking but
suddenly there was change for the
better. Everything tasted like ter
apin and canvasback and we began
to neglect our business in order 70
get home early to our meals.
We ate until our eyes bulged out
like seed onions and you could knock
them off with stick. From small
easer we developed an appetite like
a prime porker, and we felt like a
two. year old all the time. We also
had an alarming craving for liquor,
and from a moderate drinker, who
could not take more than three cock
tails without gong home and kiss
ing our mother-in-laW and doing
other crazy things, we became able
to place our wishbone against the
bar and tell the story of our life five
times, licking up one at every peri
od-and they were short sentences
at that. We felt SO good we became
alarmed and consulted our doctor.
and when we told him about our ap.
petite he doctored us for hollow leg
and tape worm.
Our wife developed worried and
haggard appearance, yet, withal had
a look Of grim determination We
took business trip intending to be
away month, but hurried back in
a week, as nothing tasted right to
US and we could not eat.
One afternoon we left the Office
early, as we were ANXIOUS to get
home for another meal, but found
things in possession of revenue Off
GERS and our wife in tears. It seems
that our neighbors, having seen
truck-load of whiskey, brandy, etc.
unloaded and carried into our resi-
dence about twice each waak bod
