Hitherto the plan has been, In treat

medicines solely for their rehabilita-

of doing anything to remove from
them the appetite to drink, except In

DR.. Miner has a formula of his
own for the cure of the habit, itself,
and this he proposes to try out at the
Knoxville institution.
There has been complaint that no
effort has been made by the state to
cure the unfortunates at the hospital
of the appetite responsible for their
downfall and there has been objec-

tuition finely equipped and supplied

might be taken care of by the tax
