THE NEAL WAY
ONLY THREE DAYS
I'LL TAKE 1T

Many people do not know that the
drink habit is cured In three days at the
Neal Institute.
The liquor drinker In resolving to be-
come freed OF this habit should select a
treatment which involves no hypodermic
injections, powerful drugs or narcotics
which f. positively no cure no pay, which
does not take over three days and which
does not leave any bad effects. There Is
only one cure which has All these quail
tiles and that is the Neal s-day drink
habit cure administered at the Neal In
stitute. 1904 South 10th ST., Omaha. Rsb
Hundreds OF Nebraska men have bean
cured at the Neal Institute during the
past few months without a single fall
urs. With the exception OF the Grand
Island Institute it - the only In
sttuts IN Nebraska administering ths
genuine Neal 8-day drink habit cure
There are over forty Institutes ia
America where the Neal S-day drink habit
cure Is administered II should also Be-
born In mind that there are no secret
treatments for the drink habit which are
effective and great risks are taken in ad-
ministering such. For full particulars.

bine" it is finding a mission in many
parts of the world as a means for the
development Of electricity.
The machinery Of u modern wind
mill is just as far advanced over the
crude machinery of the windmill of
ffty years ago as are the works Of a
fine watch over the works Of q dollar
alarm clock. One type Of wind tur-
bine. for instance, consists Of a wheel

ed upon a steel tower City feet in
height. The entire wind wheel Is of
galvanized steel, and all its moving
parts run on ball bearings. Its trans.

and the best methods known to engi-
neering have been adopted in order to
eliminate friction and enable the wheel
to make the best Of light winds. The
result is that even in a wind having a
velocity Of no higher than six miles
per hour the turbine generates elec-

every puff that comes, and it steadily
makes and stores current except in
times of absolutely still weather.
The generator used with a wind tur-
bine sixteen feet in diameter is usual
ly of two kilowatts capacity and Of
100 volts. It's armature shaft is placed
vertically and is driven by e Of
u belt from Il pulley placed at the bot
tom Of the vertical shaft of the wind
turbine tower. The control Of the
field circuit is maintained by resist
ance worked by relay switches ener-
gized by the main circuit. 1t is OBJ
vious that as the velocity of the wind
increases the power available on the
turbine also increases. and it is pos
sible to SO adjust the relay switches
that they switch resistance in or out
Of the field circuit as the velocity Of
the-wind increases or decreases. Thus
instead of governing on the speed of
the wheel the governing is done on
the out put of the wheel. The object,
Of course. is to allow the wheel to run
at it's most economical speed within
the range for which it is designed.

The federal authorities have approx

of this character has been done. Man.
