THE APPLE CURE. “For ten years,” said a physician, “I have advocated apples as a cure for drunkenness. In that time I have tried the apple cure on some forty or fifty drunkards, and my suc cess has been most gratifying. Let any man afflicted with the love of drink eat three or more apples daily and the horrible craving will gradual ly leave him. The cure will be great ly helped along if he smokes as lit- , tie as possible.” j Card of Thanks.
