The title of the attraction was "A

as there was a gay whirl from the
time the first curtain was raised until
the finale. The chorus was good, the
principal actors above the average,
and the show as whole was one of
the best ever landed at this city.
Special mention should be given the
two strong men who performed feats
of strength, the like of which has new

The show was greatly enjoyed by

A PROMINENT
IOWA BANKER
UnreservedIy Endorses the Neal Three
Day Drink Habit Cure in an
Open Letter to Bankers.

Atlantic, Iowa, March 21st, 10.
ITO all Bankers and all Interested:
About the first of December, 1909,
| was instrumental in inducing very
close friend of mine to take the NEAL
THREE DAY CURE and treatment
for the drink habit. He took the cure
at the Neal Institute, No. S02, Fifth
street, Des Moines, Iowa. commenc
ing the treatment on Wednesday, Dec.
8, 1909, and discharged as cured and
returned home on the following Sat
urday evening, having been in the said
institute under treatment just three
days. This man as personally know
had been hard drinker for several
years-in fact had reached point
where / am sure he could not control
the appetite for liquor. Since taking
the cure this man has greatly improv-
ed both physically and mentally. the
habit and desire seems to be entirely
eradicated, and feel that the cure is
permanent. His general health is
good and nervous system wonderfully
improved. | also know of four other
very bad cases and the results of
same, publicly treated in this city at
our hospital in the early part of jan
uary this year by Doctor Neal, and
they all seem to be perfectly cured,
and are leading sober and Industrious
lives and supporting their families
and they have net done before in
years
Il gladly write this letter, and auth
orize the Neal Institute Company to
use the same in any way they may de-
sire, hoping that it may be the means
OF inducing some unfortunate man af-
ficted with this awful habit to try
the Neal Cure.
Respectfully submitted,
~. A. McWAID,
president Atlantic Natl Bank.
The Neal is an internal treatment
that is given in 80 drop doses, no
hvpcdermic injections, that effects a
perfect cure of the drink habit in
three days, at the institute or in the
home.
