Wife to Blame if Husband Drinks,
Says Druggist Brown, of Cleveland,
Who Tells Wife What To Do
\ Vriv Trmtmnt Given Without the
Conarnt or linonledKc of the Drinker.
Cleveland, O. —No wife has a right
to blame her husband because he
drinks, says Druggist Brown, of
Cleveland. It is her fault If she lets
him drink and bring unhappiness and
poverty to her home and she has no
right to complain. A woman can stop
a drinking husband in a few weeks
for half what he would spend on
liquor, so why waste sympathy on a
wife- who refuses to do it. Druggist
Brown also says the right time to
stop the drink habit is at its begin
ning unless you want drink to deaden
the fine sensibilities of the husband
you love. Begin with the first whiff
of liquor on his breath, but do not
despair if he has gone from bad to
worse until he Is rum-soaked through
and through. Druggist Brown knows
the curse of strong drink because he
himself has been a victim. He was
rescued from the brink of a drunk
ard's grave by a loving sister who,
after ten years' time,, revealed the
secret to him. She saved him from
drink—rescued him from his own de
praved self, by giving him a secret
remedy, the, formula of an old German
chemist. To discharge his debt to her
and to help other victims out of the
murk and mire he has made the for
mula public. Any druggist ca/ put
it in the hands of any suffering wife,
mother, sister or daughter. Just ask
the druggist for prepared Tescum
powders and drop a powder twice a
day in tea, coffee, milk or any other
drink. Soon, liquor does not taste the
DIES FROM BLOOD POISON
Northumberland, Pa., Feb. 28. —<•
James M. Baker, former superintend*
ent of the large farm on
Island, owned by James C. Packer, a
millionaire Sunbury lawyer, died a#
the George P. Gelsinger Memorial
Hospital of blood poisoning. He suf*
fered a cut on his hand while butch*
ering a week ago, and the disease
rapidly caused his death.
same, the craving for it disappears
and 10, one more drinker is saved and
knows not when or why he lost the
taste for drink.
One woman who used this prescript
tlon on her husband says: "It is
going on the fourth week since he has
touched a drop of anything in tha
form of liquor or used tobacco of any
kind. He seems already like a differ*
ent man. Tescum has gained a won*
derful enthusiast in me. I regard it
as a Godsend. Just think, I have never
seen my husband sober for more than
48 hours in years and now it is going
on one month since he had his last
drink." .
Another one gratefully writes: I'
have used tescum powders on my
husband and find it one of the great
est curs in this world. He hasn't
taken a arink for almost five weeks
and says he never will. My home does
not seem like the same place and
life seems worth living. I hope thou
sands gain what I have. This has
been a good new yeaj for mo with
out drink in my home.'
NOTE—Tescum referred to above,
should be used only when It is desir
able to destroy all taste for alcoholio
drinks of every kind. The wife who
approves of drinking in moderation
and believes her husband safe should
give it only when she sees, as most
dc in time, that the danger line is near.
You take no risk with Tescum, as it is
sold in this city under a steelbound
money-refund guarantee by J. Nelson
Clark and other first-class druggists.
They guarantee It to do the work or
refund the money.—Advertisement.
