''Tho cocaino habit is a thousand times

ho said, "if you know how frightfully
tho habit is increasing."
"What aro its effects t"
"It is tho worst constitution wrecker
ever known. It ruins tho liver and
kidnoyR in half a year, and when this
work is done, the strongest constitution
soon succumbs."
"Do you know of Dr. Underbill's

"That leading physician who be
came n-victim oftlio cocaine habit!
Yea. His caso was a very sail one,
but tho habit can bo cured. I have
rescued many a man from a worso con

"Indeed, sir, fur so. Justin M. Hall
A. M., M. D., president of the State
Hoard of Health of Iowa, and a famed

"Well, young man, you surely have

In common with many eminent physi

of tho effects of the haoits on tho sys
tem and tho organs which they most
severely attack. Dr. Hall, Dr. Neil
and Mr. Wilson, whom I have men
tioned, and hundreds of others, equally
as expert, mado many similar experi
ments on their owu behalt. Wo each
found that theso drugs worked most
destructively in the kidneys and liver ;
in fact finally destroyed them. It was
then apparent that no cure could bo
effected until thoso organs could ho re
stored to health. Wo recently exhaust
ed tho entire rango of medical science,
experimenting with all known remedies
for these organs, and as tho result of
theso closo investigations wo all sub
stantially agreed, though following dif
ferent lines of inquiry, that the most
reliable, scientific preparation, was
Warner's safo cure. This was tho
second point in tho discovery. Tho
third was our own private form of
treatment, which, of course, we do not
divulge to the public. Every caso that
wo havo treated first with Warner's
safe cure, thcu with our own privato
treatment, and followed up again with
Warner's Bafo euro for a few weeks,
has been successful. Theso habits caii't
bo cured without using it, because tho
habit is nourished and sustained in the
iivcr and kidneys. Tho habit can bo
kept up in moderation, however, if free
uso also bo made, at tho samo time, of
that great remedy."

young man, I havo said nearly every
thing, for most diseases originate in, or
