SONS OF ST. GEORGE

A large attendance of members filled
the lodge room at Mammoth hall last
Monday night. The proceedings lasted
an hour and then the organization adj
journed to cards The principal mat
ter of public discussion during the
meeting resulted from the appearance
a few nights previously of a Son of
Saint George from the east dressed in
the uniform rank habiliments of the
order This created more surprise in
the lodge than an ostrich in an ag-
gregation of emus or storks. The con-
census of opinion seemed to be in
favor of starting a uniform rank in
the lodges here on the Pacific coast
for the purpose not only of making
a good show in public professions like
the knights of Pythias, but also in
ambulance work, first aid matters,
taking care of the sir knights in cases
of temporary feebleness. A committee
was appointed to look into the oper-
alton of uniform ranks in their effect
upon other orders.
Next Monday evening a smoker is
planned and a committee including
Brother Simmons is lin charge of the
matter. Cards of notice have been
sent to all members of the lodge. so
that good attendance is insured
Following the smoker will be the NOM
nation for election of officers on the
succeeding meeting night.

necessary funds to place this great
boon to suffering humanity within the
reach of the afflicted. He established
the first Institute in Des Moines, Iowa.
only last December, and from this one
place alone over four hundred persons,
representing practically every occupa-

re-born, regenerated men and, with
their happy and delighted families and
friends. are preaching the Gospel of the
Neal cure, which is today saving one
thousand men each month from the
blighting curse of the drink habit.
From this one Institute Senator Bruce
has extended the work until today he
has fifty-three Neal Institutes estab-
lished and opening. Territory of the
entire American continent is already
covered and plans are now made for
it's introduction and establishment in
England and Continental Europe.
Senator Bruces latest addition to the
Neal cause is the branch established
at 945 South Olive street, where this
splendid work Of retaining men and
women from drinks curse is being car
ried on under the business management
of Senator Bruce and under the per-
sonal supervision of Doctor J. w. War
hinton.
Already this wonderful Treatment,
which in some very bad cases. as stat
ed by a prominent man in this city,
"shows results that border on the mir
aculoUs," has saved many Angeleno
men and women from the curse Of
drink. One prominent lawyer in
this city took the Treatment was dis
charged as cured on Sunday and on
the following Wednesday night he per-
sonally brought three of his friends,
who in three days time were perfectly
cured. and their names and influence

Saving men who are either down

the line of wreckage that their friends
are filed with alarm, is a national

result, several years ago he originated
and perfected the treatment which
bears his name; demonstrated and
proved its merit and success in all
cases by the perfect and satisfactory
cure of over three thousand cases OF
the drink habit.
The Neal Treatment consists of a
purely vegetable and perfectly harmless
medicine, taken internally without a
single dangerous and painful hypo-
dermic injection.

The Neal Institute, with its strong
