ever-present extravaganza, began look
ing about for a better method of mu-

plan seemed the most promising

Galveston with such success that other
cities adopted 1t. The Des Mofnes plan
was also considered, but barrier to
the commission form of government
was found in the constitution of Vir-
ginia, which imposed upon each city
within its borders the necessity OF hav-
ing an aldermanic board.
Unable to rid themselves of the alder
manic system and adopt the more mod
ern plan, the people went as far-'us
they could. They abolished the old sys-

for Drug Addiction.
Our system of Home Treatment for
Drug Addiction recognizes the fact that
the Drug Habit is formed by the gradual
increase of the dose. and a successful
Home Cure must be by the gradual de-
crease of the dose, by the gradual elimi-
nation of the poison from the system and
the reconstruction of the wasted and dis
eased nerve tissues and upbuilding of
the entire bodily strength. The ease and
success OF our Home Treatment is ac-
complished by the combining with the
antidotal, eliminative and tonic properties
OF the treatment. sufficient amount Of
opiates TO comfortably sustain the pa
tient from the beginning of the course
