CurefobDkunkbsness. — Thefollqwdr g is so simple a remedy and so easily available, that we offer the suggestion to those of our readers who may feel the necessity of trying it. Dr R. D. Unger, of Min npstp, writes to the ' New York Sun' :— " In times past, you have published numerous articlos «n the cure of drunkenness, but none of them, so far as I. have .been able to, discover, have resulted in relieving the victim they were intended, to benefit. With your permission, I will now give to the world, through the light of the ' Sun,' a sure and speedy cure for drunkenness— a cure that has been tried frequently, and ahvays successfully. Let the inebriate (it matters not whether he is just getting off, is. beginning it, .or is on a spree) begin by taking every two hours one drachm (•■ 't«»opouuful) t)t tincture emohdha (Peruvian bark). This will iiutke him feel good. He can increase the dose to six drachms without any danger, aud take it in that proportion four.^otpnijEihies a day,. : !It will not destroy his appetite for food. ; Ife the course of a few days, the anti-periodic properties of the cinchona begin to.telL.and he loses not only all tasted for the tinOture, but also for everything iii the wayof alcohol. Recently, in this city, a well-known gentiemHu— who has, ili time past, been on his uOO-dollar and l,uoo-dollar sprees — tried this remedy, telling, the various druggists where he drank it that he was fighting, and -would conquer, the greatest demon on earth, but -they could; hardly believe him. : Yet, he conquered, aind tho appetite for drink vanished He was never nervoup,npvcr lost: his appetite or sleep during the siege,, and came out of the ordeal in perfect health. During the time the fever lasted^ I gave him two or three doses of simple medicine for his general health, but the tincture of cinchona did the business. This case can be verified by, tho proprietors of seven of our drugstores. . So well satisfied am lof the value of the treatment that I will guarantee a cure in all cases, using : this remedyalone."
