TREATMENT WHICH HAS
NEVER YET FAILED
Every Case of Liquor Drinking Has
Been Successfully Treated.

In the beautiful city of Davenport,
at S21 Farnam street, is the home of
the Neal Three Day Liquor Cure,
which is known far and wide as the
most successful treatment In the
world for all forms of drunkenness.
Just think Of it! The Neal treat
ment has never yet failed in a single
case to make a cure-and it never
will, for it is a perfect antidote for
alcoholic poisoning-and alcohol is
just as deadly a poison as any of
the strong acids, only it acts more
slowly. OF all the liquor cures known
the Neal is the only one that claims
even to make a cure in three days
time, and without hypodermic injec-
tions or injurious drugs.
1t makes no difference how long
the patient has been drinking, how
much, or how little, or what he drinks,
the result is always the samS Not
only is all craving for alcoholic drink
completely destroyed but in addition
the patient is rapidly restored, men,
tally and physically, to a normal
state.

SKIN DISEASES
HuM0Rs I'm THE BLOOD

Nature has made ample provision
in the moisture and sunshine of the
air for the outward protection and
healthy condition OF the skin. But
the more important work of nourish-
ing the cuticle has been left to an in
ward source-the blood. 1t is from
the circulation that the pores and
glands receive their stimulus, and
the fibrous tissues are all preserved
In a healthfu1 state because of con-
slant nutriment supplied by the blood.
It is only when the circulation be-
comes infected with humors or acids
that we are troubled with skin affec-
tons. The humors producing these
troubles are carried through the cir
cu1ation direct to the skin and their
irritating or inhammatory effect re-
mains until the blood is cleansed.
S. s. S. cures Skin Diseases, because
it is the greatest of all blood purifiers.

DoN'Ts FOR MOTORISTS.

If every automobilist would
observe the following rules there
would be fewer motor accidents
and more friends of the horse
less vehicles. Here are some
rules of action for the autoists:
Don't disobey the rules Of the
road.
Remember to keep to the right
and pass on the left
Don't forget that pedestrians
have the same rights as vehicles
at street crossings.
Remember that vehicles do not
have the right of way at street
crossings.
Don't forget that your rate Of
speed should never exceed the
legal rate.
Remember, when local coDdi-
tons require, to adopt even a
lower rate of speed than the le-
gal rate.
Don't get "rattled."
Remember that 1t Is the other
fellow who always loses his
head in a crisis.
Don't insist upon your rights.
Remember that the other fell
low may not know your rights.
and an insistence on your part is
bound to result in an accident.

he confessed 10 me the next day that
