DRINK HABIT NOW TREATED AS A DISEASE Removal of the Craving For Alcoholic Stimulants Successfully Accom plished by the Oppenheimer Treatment. Alcoholism in its advanced stages is it disease, not a vice, crime or sin. The eloquent John B. (iough, a re formed Inebriate, was a devout t'hris tion. Besides, lie stood upon tlie Amer ican platform as the apostle of total abstinence, with every motive for so briety, but he fell many times and wept bitterly over his humiliation. lie never dared pass a saloon unattend ed by a friend or member of his fain tly iteformed as he was morally and spiritually, he yet carried with him to his grave a diseased nervous system. A tnau on whom the alcoholic craving has become fastened is as much a vic tim of disease as a sufferer front pneu monia or smallpox. It is a disease re quiring special medical treatment, not punishment or imprisonment. As a dis ease it frequently brings idleness, im morality. poverty and crime, attendant evils quite distinct from the disease it itself. It weakens the will, injures the body, degrades the manhood and de stroys the earning capacity of the suf ferer. Remove the disease, and you can restore the man. The fundamental principle of the treatment for alcoholism is the de struction of that craving which prompts the "desire for intoxicating stimulants. Previous to inception of this method of treatment the efforts of the medical profession were directed to strengthening the mental control of the patient, unmindful that the liquor craving was not a perversion of idea, bv.t a disease resulting from irritation of the nervous mechanism of the indi vidual. The craving, being a direct outcome of neurotic impulse, necessi tates treatment peculiarly adapted to overcome the inciting cause. Dr. Isaac Oppenlieimer, a graduate of the College of Physicians and Sur geons, New York (medical department of Columbia university, class of ISTGt. for many years devoted careful atten tion to the study of diseases due to alcoholic and drug addictions. 111 the tenement districts on the east side of Xew York among tne suffering P i ir he found li Is I'.eld of study. There amid the pathos and the tragedy of homes and lives wrecked by intemper ance he toiled with unwearying tier man persistence for years and solved the problem of finding an ideal medical treatment. For some time he maintained a pri vate sanitarium where cases along these lines were treated. His success in this work was so marked that it attracted the attention of a number of promi nent New York business men and phi lanthropists who were interested iu temperance reform. They realized the social and commercial value of a treat ment that would actually remove the craving for alcohol or drugs without leaving any harmful after effects. After a most careful investigation they were convinced that Dr. Oppen heimer had Such a treatment and de cided to lend their names and tiuaucial support to the Oppenheimer Institute, organized for the purpose of extending its field of usefulness. The Institute is conducted on thor oughly ethical line'!, none but experi enced physicians being employed. The management is 011 a strictly business basis. A large proportion of the med ical profession is now co-operating with the Institute by referring cases to it for treatment. Every effort is made to fully merit the confidence and support of ail physicians and to assist them by placing the facilities of the Institute at their disposal. The work of the Institute, at first confined to New York city, Is gradually being extended to many sections of the United States. It lias recently been introduced into England mid other countries, where it lias met with strik ing success, receiving the direct per sonal support of many of the most prominent and influential persons. Every one interested in the subject should write or call at the Oppen heimer Institute, New York city, and receive full information.
