| 1st of December and have done fairly
well since / quit liquor
exnect there IS at least one hundred
men in this town who would De saved
10 their country and folks by taking the
treatment at Kelley. 1t is sad
to sec so many of our fellows chained,
and when you tell them you were once
in the same fix and are now loosed, they
will not believe you, but go on down in
misery to death and destruction.
With highest regards and best wishes,
| am,
Very respectfully,
T. w. HALLIBURTON.
1t will be seen that Mr.. Hallyburton
has been subjected to a severe test and
has stood firm. We do not know of a
single case in which a Kelley graduate
has relapsed, from a revival of the old
craving, but in every instance where one
has gone back it has been his own fault.
One must cultivate the habit anew he
must take the poison into his SYSTEM
he must deliberately go back to his old
habit-if he falls.
zen of Reidsville, took the treatment
some time ago. He gave the Reidsville
Review the following interview, which
tells its own story:
Il am very much impressed and more
than pleased with the Institute" he
said. 1.-The enterprise should be known
OF throughout all the world. 1t is
abundantly able to bring happiness and
good cheer to every home in which there
is a drunkard.
IF l could l would gladly devote a
part of my life to the task of convincing
the unfortunates in our land that there
is treatment that will restore their
manhood and their self-respect. | know
of no work | could do that would be of
mere permanent good to the human
race.
THE Kelley Cure saved me from a
debauched grave or an asylum and
for one am not afraid to tell the people
through the columns of your paper what
it can do for others in like condition.
'The treatment is beyond doubt an eff
ficient remedy for the thirst for strong
drink. and | am thoroughly convinced
that any man or woman who goes there
and takes the treatment will come away
saying this much. / went to the Institute
as an insane man and came away with
my wits fresh and bright, and / have
seen during my stay there others in a
like condition entered and cured.
And in addition to the entire cure TO"
the thirst for whiskey l am enjoying the
best of health and never felt better dur
ing the past fifteen years. My mind and
body have been relieved of a terrible
strain which L have scarcely been rid of
even for a few days in a number of
years, and 1 feel like a new man-one
capable of doing something and being a
blessing instead of a curse to my family
and neighbors.
"a course of treatment at the Insti-
tute at Greensboro is enough to convince
the most skeptical that it is all that is
claimed for it by the tens of thousands
of North Carolinans and others VINO
have been revitalized and cured by DR..
Keeleys wonderful discovery. l cannot
see why any relative of a debauehed or
! insane drunkard should hesitate for a
| moment in sending their loved one there
to be cured of the terrible curse with
| which he is afflicted knowing as l do
| that there is certain cure and health in
treatment
According to my mind. the Kelley In
| stitute is doing more for the unfortunate
drunkards than any other agency has
! done or can do. 1t is to be regretted that
| false pride has kept so many men away
| until perhaps they have been dragged
| down into the graves that are made daily
| for the unfortunate victims of strong
drink
IF you can induce any poor man who
! is afflicted as i have been to resolve to
| take the treatment at Kelley by a pub
| 1ication of what I say you can be as
sured that he will return to his loved
ones grateful to you for having given
| him an opportunity to know that he
| could find relief this side the grave"
Mr.. Wares many friends rejoice sin
cerely in his restoration to health and
applaud his manly commentator of the
agency through which he was rescued.
Every minister and church member
every business man, and every friend OF
afflicted humanity should esteem it a
! privilege to speak a good word for the
Kelley Institute. The whole State may
| well be proud of the noble work it is do
| ing under the leadership Of that splendid
and big hearted gentleman. Col. w. II
! Osborn, whom to know is to esteem. Col
| Osborn is the foremost Kelley worke,
| in America and his heart goes out in
| sympathy to every victim of the demon
! Alcohol Having travelled the same
rocky road himself. he knows from ex.
| perience what the inebriate suffers
physically and mentally, and what +;
blessing the Kelley treatment is.
| May the good work go on. May al
| the forces of good-the churches, schools
Kelley Institutes. etc.-work in unison
to save humanity from the curse of in,
temperance.
