Mr Faust has been at the head of the pianoforte and organ tuning department of the New England conservatory of music for over 20 years, during which time he has graduated nearly 1000 students. This department of the conservatory has continually grown in Importance, until It seemed wise to establish it as a separate school. The New England conservatory of music has therefore discontinued its tuning department and aK ranged with Mr Faust to take over the entire equipment. "Elektra" was sung last year in Berlin only eight times, although in the preceding year It was heard 20 times. -ia 'tBi The Neal Institute is conducted along ethical lines.

Twenty-five small doses of a harmless vegetable remedy are taken internally. That is all. There are no hypodermic injections and no prolonged stay, as required by many other treatments. The Neal plan is a builder of the nervous tissues, and every trace of alcoholic poison is driven from the system. The Neai Institute guarantees a cure or a refund of the money, and the management always says: "Satisfy us of your ability to pay and then pay us when yu' your physician, your friend or all are satisfied." The Neal Institute always treats all communications and its patients in the strictest confidence.

Names of guests are never revealed. If you will write the Institute they will give you unquestionable references as to their ability to do as they promise, and as to their responsibility.

It wasn't a happy home that he left. Both father and mother were in the clutches of the drink habit. "You'll never see me again," the boy said, "until I know I have a father and a mother who have Btopped drinking!" Last week this father and mother, whose love for liquor had become the ruling passion of their lives, came to the Neal Institute together. Friends who had learned of the marvelous results of the Neal three-day cure for the drink habit decided they would try and save this family from certain ruin that threatened it.

These friends brought the unfortunate vlfUms of a resistless appetite to the Neal Institute. It was an unusual occurrence. Three days later this couple left for their home. The mother, with her best womanly reason restored and all craving for drink absolutely gone, was Just quietly happy, but the father, In his release from the power of drink, was delighted. "I propose," he declared, "to tell everybody I know what the Neal Institute has done for both of us.

It has given us a chance to really live again!" And before the couple started for home the father sent a letter speeding to the Philippines, and it carried the news which will lift from the absent son the secret burden which is weighing down his heart. "Mother and I have quit drinking and want nothing more to do with the stuff," was the preface to the, paternal missive which told of the dual redemption made possible by friends who knew what the Neal cure has accomplished during the' seven years, of its wonderful efficiency in the treatment of which others have called "hopeless." Bringing happiness to homes in which father, brother or son have been victims of appetite for liquor is the every-day mission of the Neal Institute. The Boston Neal Institute Is located at 3Q4 Newbury st. There are 40 similar institutions in the United States every one of them carrying" fn a great mission of helpfulness. Bostonians and other New Eng-landers whp are "nervous drinkers," and find the desire growing upon them, can go to the Neal Institute at 304 Newbury and in three days just a brief little vacation from the office they can have that appetite for alcohol turned into positive aversion for all drink.

Friends of those who drink, and who see their loved ones firmly in the clutch of this appetite, can send them to this institute, where there is all the quiet and privacy of home, hotel or club. Neal Institutes never make public names of their guests, and the environment is that of a happy family. Elberfeld's $11,450, Cologne's week.

17, 1910. The Neal Institute, 304 Newbury Street, Boston, Gentlemen I desire to thank yon for the courtesies extended me whili taking the Neal Cure at your institute. I have been an extremely heavy drinker for years, and was unable to control my ravenous appetite for liquor; my nerves and stomach were in the most terrible condition possible, as I do not remember some things which they afterward told me had happened during the first night at your home, due to a delirious state of mind. Your treatment is truly marvelous in its effect upon the patient, inasmuch as it does remove the desire and craving for drink, and builds up the nervous system in three days' time. I now am absolutely certain that liquor will never again get a hold upon me, as that awful craving is entirely gone.

The Neal Cure for the drink habit does all and more than it claims for Its patients; it Is truly a blessing to humanity. Every person addicted to the drink habit should, in justice to himself, his family and friends, take the Neal Three-Day-Drink-Cure, and rid himself of the vicious habit I have tried other treatments, with no degree of satisfaction; however, I was perfectly cured in three days by your Neal treatment, and have not the slightest fear that I will ever take another drink o( liquor. Wishing you every success, and the prosperity that your humane efforts so greatly deserve. I am, Yours, very sincerely. Oscar Hammerstein announces that in New York and at the actors' fund gyt.

Others have stated ttoat a power famine threatens the mills using water from the lake. These reports have been discussed with animation by returning summer tourists who have seen the lake, who have advanced various conjectures as to the cause of the trouble. Some think the mills are taking more water than ever before, particularly the big cotton mills at Manchester and Lowell. Others The peculiar formation of the land around the lake turns In other directions large quantities of water falling properly within Its geographical vicinage. It gets none of the water that falls among he White mountains, immediately northeastward of it, as two small ranges intervene.

The lake gets the water from the south and west sides of these, the Ossipee and Sandwich ranges, but that Is all. The great volume from the larger mountain watershed goes down the Androscoggin and Saco rivers on the east, and the Pemi-gewasset on the west The latter river conies into the Merrimac about 15 miles below the lake.

Lowell uses for power, for example, 6416 cubic feet of water a second, equal to 178,232,000 gallons an hour, or 1,732,320,000 gallons every day of 10 working hours. With Lowell using nearly 10 times as much water as passes out of the lake, it is evident she does not lean very heavily jjn the Winnipesaukee supply, and must secure a heavy flow elsewhere.

This flow comes from the Merrimac, Nashua. Contoocook and Peml-gewasset rivers. Lowell has the benefit of a drainage basin of 4085 square miles. The streams in this basin are not much below their usual pitch in a dry summer. There is nothing in their condition to alarm the Proprietors of the Locks and Canals at Lowell.

The streams respond readily to rains, and a normal autumn rainfall would keep them full. Above Lowell, Manchester is the largest user of water power on the Merrimac. It uses 3600 cubic feet a second or 945.000.000 gallons in a day of 10 hours', which is more than five times as much as the flow of it is surprising how few of the men who have stirred controversy have turned out to be charlatans.

A half-day's cruise by powerboat from the Weirs shows the exact condition of the lake. Its water Is just as pure and sparkling as ever, though three leet lower than usual. This has exposed considerable stretches of low-lying shore, but these shores are all so clean and piGturesque that there is nothing offensive about them.

The chief Inconvenience caused by the low level of the lake Is the bringing out of water, or near the surface, rocks hitherto well covered. This lias cauwd woe to the amateur pilot, and has Increased the liability of accident to power boats from navigating the many rocky channels about the shores or among the lake's 274 Islands.

Seven Dry Years. The rainfall at lake Wlnnlpesaukee for the past 60 years has been 2120.4 Inches. This is an average of 42.4 inches a year.

In no year since 1902 has the rainfall total precipitation of rain and snow reached that figure. In 1902 there was a heavy fall, reach-in 51.77 Inches; but in 1903 the total was 41.55, in 1904 it fell to 39.02, in 1905 it was but 38.38, in 1906 37.61, In 1907 40.77, in 1908 but 32.09 and in 1909 37.14. With but one exception 1894, which has but 31.46 inches -1908 was the dryest year at the lake In the 60 in which precipitation records have been kept there, while ,1909 was not much better. The lake not having received Its normal supply of 'water In those years, its present condition was to be expected. The average rainfall at the lake for seven years, to 1910, has been but 38.36 inches a year, or an average of 6.02 inchA below normal for each year, up to 1910, while this year It was, to Aug 18, 4.25 below normal.

For the seven years to the beginning of 1910 Ui- lake's total shortage of water was 42.14 inches, and while averaged figures cannot be employed with precision, they are sufficiently reliable to show why the gage at Lake-port showed the lake on that date to be 35 inches below the level main Women, Read The Advts In today's Globe.

This condition Is worse at the west end of the lake and along Moultonboro and Melvln bays than elsewhere.

One popular fallacy regarding the control of lake Wlnnlpesaukee's flow is that It is In the hands of the cotton mills at Lowell and Lawrence, and that they can draw the water at will. When the lake was first dammed for the benefit of these mills a corporation was formed to control the water, known as the Wlnnepissiogee lake cotton and woolen company, the chief stockholders being the mill interests at Lowell, Lawrence and Manchester. One condition of this company's charter was that the flow from the lake could not be restricted to less than 250 tained as full lake, leaving a re serve or Out nine inches above low i cudic reet a second, which was equal Estates Change Their Shore Line.

When Forbes-Robertson procnicei "Macbeth" at the Lyceum theatre In London, he had a curious experience with an army of overambitious supers. One night during the battle scene, a soldier, who was stationed on a particularly tall piece of scenery, accidentally lost his footing and fell headlong on to the stage. The effect was exceedingly realistic, and after the performance Mr Forbes-Robertson complimented him on it. The next night, however, to everybody's consternation, almost every super occupied some place or other of vantage, and at a given moment that was when each was certain that Forbes-Robertson was on the stage each rolled from his perch at the back, only stopping at the footlights. That night the tragedy ws very nearly turned into an acrobatic ODD FISH FROM THE DEPTHS.
