The"~ Keeley T reatment -CURES THE DISEASES OFAlcoHi, HorpMnism, Nervous TUA Annii nti nn J 4lin ffinlinnnn MMUMM ami iiic luiiaiiuu HaMt IT REMOVES THE CRAVING AND THE necessity for stimulants. The cure is ' made, the future is with the ex-patient. It does not put brains into a man's head or a pad lock on his mouth. After treatment his condition as to the craving is the same as before ever using stimulants. Wp cure the disease, our part is performed. The families of ihe ex-patients, the community in which they llve.^in fact all must give them encouragement and moral support. There would ^?_-?thcn be fewer lapses. A small percentage, (less than 7 per cent,) only of those treated at the Institute of South Carolina, have experimented with liquor, and less than 5 per cent have returned in their old habits, and some of the worst and almost hopless cases have been sent to us and are living witnesses of tho KEELEY CURE. Can the treatment of other diseases show a better result? For further information and leaflets address the Keeley Institute, Northeast corner Lady and Marlon Streets, (or Drawer 27,) Columbia, S. C.
