    A Private Hospital for the Special Treatment of Alcohol and Opium Inebriates. THIS Institution was founded in 1878 on the modern view that Inebriety is a disease and curable. Each patient is made the subject of special study, and special medical treatment suited to the exact requirements of the case. The general plan of treatment is building up the diseased organism and restoring both mind and body to a healthly and normal condition, with brain and nerve, rest, etc. This is accomplished by Turkish, Russian, and Saline Baths, Electricity, Massage, tonics, diet, and every other means known to science and experience which have proved to be of value in these cases. This Hospital is pleasantly situated in the suburbs with the best surround¬ ings, and every appointment of an elegant residence. Experience proves that a large proportion of cases who come under treat¬ ment, and who unite with the physician in the use of all means of treatment, are permanently restored and cured. Each case has the direct personal care of the physician and attendant; and no one is received for less than four months unless by special arrangement.
