M. Woolley by Dr. J. Dill worth of Stone Mountain, Georiga. It is only necessary for us to add that Dr. Dillworth is an old citizen, and a physician of many years ex perience. He is a plfiin practical man, a sub stantial, reliable gentleman of undoubted ver acity, whose statements can be most implicitly relied upon. Dr. Woolley tells us he could pre sent to the public hundreds of similar letters from cured patients and physicians, if the au thors would permit him to do so. He says that j not more than one out of fifty patients cured of the opium habit will permit their names or the history of their cases to be given to the public. His patients now number 370, and new ones continually coming in to fill the places of those cured, and sent on their way rejoicing. Read the letter. , HEAR WHAT DOCTORS SAY’. • Stone Mountain, Ga., April 7, 1875. Mr. B. M. Woolley, Atlanta. Ga.: In reply to your inquiry as to how I succeeded with the use of “ Dr. Collins’ Painless Opium Antidote,” which 1 procured from you as his agent, for a patient of mine, I have this to report: It was for a lady about thirty-two (32) years old, who had used opiates about seven years, and was using at the time I commenced the use of the . Antitode, about three grains of morphine in a day of twenty-four hours. Her general health was very bad. • She was extremely debilitated, , and in fact all the healthy actions of the system were more or less deranged. She commenced the use of the /Yutidote about the 15th of April, 1874 In three or four days she began to im prove, and continued to do so until she became a perfectly healthy woman, never using a particle of opium from the first dose of the Antidote. In spirits she is cheerful and hopeful. Ilerskiirw ami eyes have cleared up, and truly, 1 might say, it has brought hope and happiness where despondency aud unhappiness had existed, and returned health to body and mind. She left off the use of the Antidote without trouble, after she had used about six and a half bottles in about six and a half months time. She has not used a particle of opiate or Antidote since then; having ' no desire or necessity for either. By this, you see she has been perfectly well more than six months. If these facts will be of any service tHf you or Dr. Collins, you are at liberty to use them. It is certainly a most remarkable remedy forthe,- cure of the opium habit. J. Dillworth, M. D.
