From the Memphis commercial-Appeal.
 The following letter from James T. Earl contains suggestions that will meet with the approval of a great number who would like to be relieved of their craving or desire for alcoholic and narcotic stim- nlants and the tobacco habits, but who hesitate to take the treatment for fear of the notoriety of having done so.

 My Dear Sir and Friend--You will re- member I took the Keeley treatment at your institute at Memphis. under pr. Samuel Morrow, whom I see is still en- gagged with you in the good work of saw ing drinking men, drug users, cigar cigar cite and tobacco habitues. l understand through some of my friends who have lately visited James Old Homestead San atorium that you now have one of the most up-to-date institutions in the South for the treatment of alcoholism, drug ad- dictions, tobacco habits and nervous dis- eases. I am also informed that your in proved treatment does not produce any bad effect on the mind, and that 1t does not make one sick, neither does 1t impair or weaken the vigor of manhood, but that it has tendency to restore every organ 
 formed that you now give needle, spray shower vapor. hot, cold and mineral baths. and electric massage treatment in connection with your improved treat ment. l am glad you have adopted these baths, as well as the electric and massage treatment in connection with your other treatments for l do not believe any man can be thoroughly cured of alcoholism, etc, without first having his entire ner- vous system toned up. After leaving the 'Keeey Institute" I tried to get some of my friends to go to you for treatment. They wanted to be cured, but claim that if they went to a .Keeley Institute" they would by so doing advertise to the world that they were either a drunkard or a drug user. The fear of gaining such mo- toriety has kept many professional and business men from visiting Institutes. l am, therefore. glad to see that the new place is known Sanitorium' in- stead of an institute" and you could not have selected a better name than James Old Homestead Sanatorium."
 A person can now go to James Old Homestead Sanatorium ostensibly for the purpose of being treated for insomnia, indigestion. nervous prostration, or some other aiment, when in reality they are being treated for alcoholism, morphinism, or some other drug habit, without the world being any the wiser, just as hun dreds of people go to Hot Springs, os- tensiby for rheumatism or malaria, and are treated for other troubles.
 Wishing you and James Old Home stead Sanatorium much success, l am,
 Your true friend JAMhi- T. EARL.
