Success.
CHICAGO, Aug 11 Several hun
dred persons, including staid business
men of 50, pung women, actresses,
young girls, young men and Chicago’.!
youngt p*t “veteran smoker,” a 4-year-
old boy, will attend the dinner to be
given under the auspices of the Antl-
(’igarette League of America on Mon
day. August 18, to celebrate their
freedom from the cigarette habit
through the free clinic now being con
ducted In Chicago by the league.
Hundreds have taken advantage of
the treatment given by Dr. D. D.
Hess, under the direction of MD««
Lucy Page Gaston, and the head
quarters of the league are swamped
with letters from women all over the
country. Persona in every walk of
life, of both sexes and of nearly all
nges, have visited the league's head
quarters during the week.
I-asrt Monday, the first day the clinic
was opened, there were fifteen pa-
tisnta The number was doubled the
next day. and on Thursday there were
over one hundred To-day the head
quarters were thronged with people,
and the telephone rang Incessantly.
Patients by Hundreds.
Mothers have brought their sons,
wives have brought their huabonds,
prominent business men have come of
their own accord, and one father
thought his 4-year-old son, who, he
•mid, smoked 50 cigarettes daily. An
actress who comes from a family
prominent in the church asked for
treatment- One young married wom
an. who said she has contracted the
habit since her wedding and that it
had brought the only disagreement
between her and her husband, took
the cure.
"We are swamped with letters,”
said Mi9« Gaston. “Physicians from
all over the United States and even
from Canada have written for partic
ulars concerning the treatment. I
have proml.«»ed all that their names
would not be given out. Cine who
came to our clinic was a very promi
nent business man of about fifty. He
stated his case with tears in hi« eyes
“He said that if he could only get a
three days' start on the habit he
could conquer it. He was given the
treatment and has not smoked since.
He declared that if he was cured he
would send hundreds, and they have
been pouring in from all of the office
buildings in Chicago's ‘loop' district."
What Dr. Hess Claims.
Dr. HeM, who formerly was the
head of a large sanitarium in London
and Austria and who gave up his
work in order to crusade against the
cigarette, doefi not claim that the
treatment Is a new one or that U
will permanently remove the craving
for tobacco.
It assists the will power, however,
he says in overcoming the habit dur
ing the worst period and then leaves
the will power to complete the cure.
He will not accept as a patient any
one who does not want to stop.
Hin treatment consists of a solution
of one-eighth of one per cent of sti
ver nitrate used as a mouth wash and
a dietary program. The mouth wash
is used after meals for the first two
or three days. If the patient wmokei
during this treatment he becomes,
nauseated.
Warning is given against the use
of high-seasoned foods and spices,
coffee and tea. and too much meat.
Fruits, cereals and vegetables are
urged as a diet for a week or two and
swoet baths for ridding the system if
nicotine.

second at every shoot, and in the

three rank high among the marks
men of the world, and inasmuch as
they are all better this year than ever

shooting at Camp Perry.

gepnt W. R Browne, Captain O. L.
Rudisall and Sergeant O. C. Holleran.
