I took the treatment there, and may God bless the Keeley, is my prayer for ever. It cost me $132.00 for the four weeks treatment, and it was the best investment of money that I have ever made in my life, for I never have wanted whiskey or beer from that day to this.

Gentlemen: It has been fourteen years Nov ember 17th, since I finished taking the Keeley Treatment at Greens boro. N. C., for the whiskey habit. I was forty-four years old when I took the tratment. I had been a slave to alcohol for twenty years. Since being cured at your Institute I have never tasted liq uor or any medicine containing alcohol, nor have I ever had any desire to drink. I am sure it sav ed me from a drunkard's hell. The fourteen years since I took the treatment have been a bless ing to mvself and family. My ad vice to all is not to drink, but to thoe who have formed the drink habit I fay, go and take the Keel ey Treatment at Greensboro at once. I wish all could see as I do now. It is so good to know that I am a cured man. and to know that if I am faithful to the end I will have a home in the Prieht Pevond. I hope that many more cures will ba made at the Greensboro Keelev Institute. Verv Trnlv YnnM. J. M. ITUNSUCKER. Hillsboro, N. C. Oct. 6, 1906. The Keeley Institute, Greensboro, N. C. Gentlemen : I graduated at The Keeley In stitute in Greensboro, N. C, in 1892.. I went there on August 15th with the intention of getting the full benefit of the treatment, and I can testify to the fact that I was fully cured and declare that i it is a wonderful remedy. After the third day I ais there I did. not want any more whiskey and have not wanted any since. I was well and kindly treated by every one connected with the Institute. I advise all who want to quit the habit to take the treatment at once, for it is one of the greatest discoveries on earth. I do not re gret one cent it cost me but only wish that I had had the opportu nity of taking this treatment ten 3ears sooner. Words cannot ex press the benefit I received, and I wish every man who drinks ViOTTrt 'flirt CATna avnam n-An r T have had at your Institute; he J wonld not hesitate to pay the , $132.00 that the "treatment costs. It has restored many a man who was a drunkard and has raised him from adversity to prosperity and has renewed liis health and strength, and saved him from a drunkard's grave. I advise all who are drunkards or who are inclined that wav to take the treatment at The Keeley Institute at Greensboro, N. C. Respectfully Yours, A. F. CRABTREE. Hookerton, N. C, Oct. 22, 1906. The Keeley Institute, Greensboro, N. C. Gentlemen: I want to write to you and tell you what I think of vour Insti tute. I was born in 1827, of hum ble parentage. My father was a Methodist preacher. I was always troubled with the whiskey habit; began drinking when very young, perhaps 15 years of agd. I was marrifed in 1854, and began to drink to excess about the year 1860. The habit grew with age, and at tiines I would stay under the inBuence of the deadly -poison for a week or ten days. I got so I could not get from' under its in fluence -when I wanted to, and the cursed evil still grew and follow ed me until I decided to go to the Institute. I was percuaded to go to your Institute about ten years ago and was completely cured. I found that vour Institute was even more than had been recommended The officers are men of the highest character, kind and pleasant; rules not in the least stringent, and there is nothiner to prevent any man from wanting to go there. Any man can be cured who will do as the officers direct. I have nevr tasted any stimu lants since I left your institute, and have no thirst or desire for it. I am now nearly 77 years old My experience and the experience of my friends and neighbors who have taken your treatment con vinces me that your Institute is one of the grandest things on earth. May God bless it ! Honing that others may be ben efited as I have by your treatment, Your True Friend, W. T. DIXON. The late Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage in an address to Keeley Graduates on The Keeley Cure, said : "We cannot read it down, we cannot talk it down; it will become triumphant and be recognized in all the land and in all the land? of the earth. It has on it the mark of the approval of the Lord God Almighty." For full particulars address, RJl U LTU YOYUY Correspondence Confidential, GD3EER3SISQI33. Rl..

EasUarf't -Fiery Drmsoni." In the year 1532 various parts of Great Britain were visited by a re markable meteorological phenomenon, which the old authors refer to as "the visitation of the fire drakes or drag ons." The author of "Contemplation of Mysteries" says: "In ye letter parte of ye yea re (1Z22) ye fieri dragons appeared flying by flocks or companies la ye ayre, having swlnes snowies, and sometimes were they seene foure hundred flying togither." In speaking of the fire dragons ba another pdrtlon of his work he says. "Common people thlnke fire drakes to be spirits which watch over bidden treasure, but the philosophers affirm them to be ye re sult of poisonous vapors which are spontaneously lighted in ye ayre."
