And other such addictions can be cured by a proper course of treatment,”
said a Dallas physician in a temperance meeting a few days ago. He was
right. Be sure, however, that you get the right kind of treatment. The
proper course of treatment must be based, first, upon a a thorough knowl-
edge of the general nature of these diseases; second, the physician in
charge must be able to make a diagnosis which will reveal the deep-
Seated, subtle peculiarities of each case; third, the treatment must be
accurately prescribed and administered rationally, progressively, sympa-
thetically; fourth, patients must be rendered absolutely independent of
all drugs before leaving the institution. The WHITE SANITARIUM is
willing to be judged by this exacting standard. Persons interested in a
cure for any of these addictions are urged to investigate the RESULTS
accomplished at this institution. Write for booklet and terms. Corre-
spondence confidential. Help us in this humanitarian work by sending
us the names and addresses of persons needing treatment.
