drink right from the start and he
took exactly twenty-five doses of tho
medicine during the three days. Al

My prayer as a mother and wife is
that all unfortunate men who are af-
flicted with the awful curse of the
drink habit, as my husband was, and
their suffering wifes, mothers, daugh-
tiers and sisters. dear friends and ac-
uuaintances, may hear of the Neal
Cure. as we did last Sunday morning
on our arrival in this city. and that
the afflicted mes may be
ageu and influenced to take the treat
ment as my dear husband has just
done. With this hope and prayer in
mind | gladly and freely make the
following statement which ! authorize
the Neal Cure Company to publish
in any manner that they may desire
and decide to do.
My husband is q travelling mar and
our home is in an Illinois town. He
Is a man of much ability when sober,
as is evidenced by the high salary
that he received from q large firm.
For over eight years past he has been
a hard drinker and has gradually
grown worse all of the time. A few
years since he took one of the old
cures, q four weeks treatment with
over one hundred hypodermic injec-
tions, but in his case it was a COM
plete failure. Hoping that my con-
slant presence with him would aid him
in his struggle against the habit, |
accompanied him on this trip, visit
ing the towns in the west. For sew
eral years past he was unable to con-
troll his appetite and on our arrival
in Albuquerque last Sunday he was
sick unto death. In my desperation
/ knelt in fervent prayer and cried
out to God to direct my footsteps
and tell me what to do. | appealed

city who called my attention to the

The private picture post card. which
has attained such amazing popularity

old as the government post card. II
is also OF German invention, and II

lustrated post card bearing the pie
ture Of a gunner was placed on sale
by Schwartz, in Oldenburg. The man

the time OF their construction only a
lew years ago, are demolished every
month to make way for more up-to-
GATE structures. Hardly one in ten
thousand. however, is moved. The
residence In question has already out
ilVed three generations. since IL was
erected more than one hundred years
ago. and has long too as a landmark
IN N eastern part of the city. When
u was built II was In n district prac-
tically uninhabited and Astounding In
game n a journey to the site of the
present city hall was a matter of sew
erai hours. Now II stands in one of
the busiest parts Of the metropolis and
only a few minutes ride from its CEN
ter. This venerable structure, how
ever, is soon to be moved. not for a
snort distance, but a considerable way
into New jersey. II is to be taken
down by sections, shipped by freight
and regretted just as il stood on its
original site. This undertaking,
unique In the moving records Of the
city, Is to be carried u to conform to
the dying wishes Of a woman who was
born in the century old house which
her parents built, and whose descen-
dants will continue to live in it in its
new location.
While fishing for birds would seem
to be about the last word in the world
of queer sports. there is nevertheless
one ma In this city who makes a liv-
ing through catering to the followers
of this pastime by the sale of pigeon
poles. Contrary 20 the general i'm
preston, these poles are not used to
support pigeon houses, but actually to
aid in the catching of these birds. The
poles in question are light bamboo
rods, closely resembling the old-fash-
fishing poles. There, however,
resemblance ceases, for though
hey are used to catch pigeons, they
are without limo or hook. Instead
are used by fanciers who raise
pigeons on the city roofs to disturb
heir birds and make them fly. BY
simply swinging the pole around the
pigeons are scared off their home
and when they return they are
invariably followed by a few strange
which the ~fanciers add to their
locks. While any kind of a pole
would undoubtedly serve, the bamboo
l~rticle, because of its lightness, is rec
)gnized as the standard bird catching
pole, and in the birds hat 1t gets as
result of its use brings such gains
hat bird fishing is a regularly estab-
ished. if little known, profession
lere.
