THE NEAL INSTITUTE.

Moved to New and Larger Quarters
in Portland.
The Neal institute, for the past five years
located at lat Pleasant avenue, Woodfords,
has been moved to 100 Ocean avenue, a
more desirable location in many ways.
The success OF the Neal treatment in
creased the patronage to sue an extent
that it finally became necessary to have
more room and better conveniences. The
new home Of the Neal institute, with the
improvements that have been made in re-
spect to some OF the minor details OF con-
struction and equipment, has become one
OF the finest institutes Of it's kind in
America.
A little over six years ago Doctor Neal
demonstrated the effectiveness OF his
treatment in several bad cases OF alcohol
ism treated in the public hospital at At
lantic, Iowa, to Hon James +. Bruce, an
Iowa senator and banker. with the result
that Senator Bruce has since devoted his
entire time to the work OF the "Neal
way".
Senator Bruce esta blishe d the head Neal
institute in the former Chicago hospital
building, in October, 1910. Since then
o. her bankers, business and professional
men, under the leadership OF Senator
Bruce, have caused over three score
splendid Neal institutes to be established
in principal American and foreign cities,
and the work is being rapidly extended to
all parts Of the civilized world.
The secret OF all this great worldwide
success is that the "Nesl way" effects an
easier, better and more permanent cure OF
the drinking man in from three to seven
days, or the drug user in from two to
three weeks, than has been or can be done
by the "old way" in several weeks or
months.-Adut.

for her husband. 1t was supposed
that the missing man was in an ark

woman proceeded to the spot and the
former raped upon the door. Vogel-
gesang, who was in bed, at the time,
objected to being disturbed, and, ac-
cording to the officer, used unconven-
tional language to him. The officer
threatened to force the door, when
the coloquy became more exciting.

man being sought was not in the ark.
and he alleged that the officer had
acted rude toward him, and had
threatened to use his stick.
The case came before Justice Cation
in the Police Court this morning,
when Vogelgesang in his testimony
grew wrathful and called the officer
a liar. Justice .Caton Immediately
fined him $5 for contempt. The wo-
man in the case being absent, it was
determined to continue the matter un-
til tomorrow morning in order to OBJ

1t is not the poverty manifested in
rags that is the most terrible. Each
starved soul hides a tragedy.
In Alexandria as well as every
where else-there are many women
with beautiful characters and asplra-
tions who have to go through life on
coarse fare and in coarse clothes. 10
you know any such? And do you
know that a present of some little
thing that would satisfy their aesth-
etic cravings would give them greater
happiness than a dozen banquets?
But they are sensitive souls and hug
their sorrows to their own hearts.

ing that you always know poverty

THE RAMBLER.

We are inclined to laugh at fond
parents who talk continuously of the
doings of their youngsters, but we
laugh kindly at that--at heart we
sympathise with them even though
they often bore us. And yet why
shouldn't they be proud of their
youngsters, and talk about them?
God created man after His
own image and in the creation of
another such image, men and women
achieve infinitely more than the pain
ter, the sculptor, or the writer, for
these latter, after all, simply at
tempt to reproduce human life.
The creative instinct lies in all of
US. We must create either a picture,
a child, book, wooden model or
mischief. The old axiom Satan finds
mischief for. idle hands to do is
recognition of this creative instinct.
And that is why it is imperative that
We must all have something to do all
of the time, whether work Or play.
Look back into your experience and
think of the people you know who
went smash. You'll find their action
had its source in evil throught grown
and nurtured in idlencss. And so
those of us who at times grow weary
of our labor have yet cause to be
thankful for it. Work is the greatest
painkiller in the world. l heard a
very charming woman say yesterday:
"Thank God for work. | echoed her
thought. knew what trouble she
has passed through and I can see that
work alone has kept her sweet and
mentally wholesome.
