MosTOOMsnY, W. Va., June 94. — It
is estimated that the storms and wash
outs of Saturday did $73,000 damage to
property in this vicinity. The greatest
damage was to the coal tipples, which
were partly demolished. No lives are
known to have been lost.
It is now generally known and under
stood that drunkenness is a disease and
not weakness. A body tilled with poi
son, and nerves completely shattered by
periodical or constant use of intoxicating
liquors, requires an antidote capable of
neutralizing and eradicating this poison,
and destroying tin* craving for intoxi
cants. Sufferers may now cure them
selves at home without publicity or lost-
of time from business bv this wonder
