The government of South Aus
tralia has set an example worthy or
imitation by the other nations of the
world. Realizing the extent, enorm-
ity and the awful consequences of
the drink habit, they have for years
past been investigating its cause, eff
feet, treatment and possible cure.
In the year 1910 Rev. a. G. Ran
kline, commissioned by that govern
ment, visited the United States, and
after a thorough investigation Of
drink habit treatments, he returned
TO his government last September
and made a detailed, lengthy report,
recommending the adoption Of the
Neal Three-day Drink Habit Cure.
The government of South Australia
adopted his report, and established
the cure in a large government san
itarium, where those addicted to the
drink habit are treated at govern
ment expense instead Of being fined
or sent TO prison cells.
During the first 80 days exactly
50 persons so afflicted were perfect
~ cured by the Neal treatment at
government expense; restored to cit
izenship as healthy men and good
citizens In addition to this. reports
show that more than double that
number availed themselves Of the
Neal treatment in private sanitar-
iums in Australia.
Hon. James f. Bruce, who is at
the head of this movement for the
upleft Of mankind, through the Neal
treatment. informs Us that he has
several very interesting official re-
ports and newspaper and magazine
articles from that country which can
be seen by any one who will call at
the Davenport institute where this
famous Neal treatment IL being ad-
