ALCOHOL and DRUG ADDICTIONS

958 S. 4TH ST. (Davie Ave.) MEMPHIS, TENN. 3303 PACIFIC AVE., ATLANTIC CITY, N. J
1849 DWINELL STREET, OAKLAND, CALIF. 425 BROADWAY, DENVER, COLO.

C These Institutions are owned and controlled by reputable physicians, and are conducted upon
strictly ethical lines. They were opened and are maintained solely for the purpose of treating
Alcohol and Narcotic Drug Addictions by methods based upon the original investigations of Dr. Geo.
B. Pettey of Memphis, Tenn., and first published to the profession by him in 1901. (See Thera-
peutic Gazette, Oct. 1901.)

The method of treatment introduced by Dr. Pettey removes these addictions from the list of
almost incurable diseases and renders them the most certainly and readily curable of all the
chronic ailments.

In a letter just received from Dr. C. N. Udell, of Valparaiso, Ind., he says of Daniel's Concentrated Tincture Passiflora Incarnata : "Some years ago I found Passiflora a valuable remedy in cases of nerve tension, insomnia, and those cases bordering on insanity. The trouble has been to obtain a reliable preparation made from the green root. From my experience with your preparation, I unqualifiedly pronounce it the reliable one, giving to physicians a sedativ that will not disappoint. I expect to use it wherever opportunity offers."' See adv. on page 28.

Oxolint

[graphic]

ABSORBENT
LINEN

Absorbs instantly, yet will not mat nor pack. It is most gratefully cooling and soothing to any wound.

Physicians and Surgeons appreciate its superiority as an absorbent,

Oxolint is pronounced by Dentists, Surgeons, Nurses and Druggists who have used it, to be "the ideal dressing" - hygienic, non-irritating, antiseptic, and as remarkable for its retentiveness as for its absorbency and cooling properties. It is also peculiarly free from adhesive fuzz. Oxolint is one result of a recently discovered process of treating flax and converting it into this ideal absorbent.

This process is controlled by the Oxford Linen Mills.

We would like very much to have every Physician, Surgeon and Dentist prove to his own satisfaction the superiority and general excellence of Oxolint.

A SAMPLE FOR TESTING PURPOSES will be sent free on request.

A DELIGHTFUL REVELATION

The value of senna as a laxative is well known to the medical profession, but to the physician accustomed to the ordinary senna preparations, the gentle yet efficient action of the pure laxative principles correctly obtained and scientifically combined with a pleasant aromatic syrup of Californian figs is a delightful revelation, and in order that the name of the laxative combination may be more fully descriptive of it, we have added to the name Syrup of Figs "and Elixir of Senna," so that its full title now is "Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna."

It is the same pleasant, gentle laxative, however, which for many years past physicians have entrusted to domestic use because of its non-irritant and non-debilitating character, its wide range of usefulness and its freedom from every objectionable quality. It is well and generally known that the component parts of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna are as follows:

Syrup of California Figs.....

...75 parts .......25 parts

Aromatic Elixir of Senna, manufactured by our original method, known to
the California Fig Syrup Co. only.....

Its production satisfied the demand of the profession for an elegant pharmaceutical laxative of agreeable quality and high standard, and it is, therefore, a scientific accomplishment of value, as our method ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product required by the careful physician. It is a laxative which physicians may sanction for family use because its constituents are known to the profession and the remedy itself proven to be prompt and reliable in its action, acceptable to the taste and never followed by the slightest debilitation.

ITS ETHICAL CHARACTER

Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is an ethical proprietary remedy and has been mentioned favorably, as a laxative, in the medical literature of the age, by some of the most eminent living authori ties. The method of manufacture is known to us only, but we have always informed the profession fully as to its component parts. It is therefore not a secret remedy, and we make no empirical claims for it. The value of senna as a laxative is too well known to physicians to call for any special comment, but in this scientific age it is important to get it in its best and most acceptable form and of the choicest quality, which we are enabled to offer in Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, as our facilities and equipment are exceptional and our best efforts devoted to the one purpose.
