Of silver is a positive cure for the
cigarette habit. He said one treat
ment put an end to the smoking for
the time being and treatment for sew
eral days ended the craving.
Almost all the boys sent here are
cigarette smokers" declared the sup
erintendent. "and of course it has
been our practice to break them of
the habit as soon as possible. In some
instances the boys were SO addicted 10
tobacco that it would have been un-
wise to take it away from them at
once, so they were allowed to smoke
in moderation for two or three days.
However, when the smoker arrives
now we give him the nitrate of silver

They just simply cannot smoke after
their mouths and throats have been
swahhed with the drug.
"One of our physicians heard Of the
treatment several months ago and we
have been using it for six weeks. We
said nothing about it foi awhile, be-
ca2se we thought 1t best to await re-
suits, but now that we have found it
effloAcious we do not care who knows

treatment say they have not the slight
