Dies in Surf After
Saving Girl Bather
Wildwood, X. J., Aug. 9.—ln an ef
fort to save a young woman from
drowning, John J. Young, of 1X52 Erie
avenue, Williamsport, Pa., was
drowned here at 10 o'clock yesterday
morning.
A group including Young and the
girl were bathing oft a forbidden sec
tion of the beach at Bennett avenue,
where signs and danger flags are plac
ed. but no guards are on duty. The
beach shelves rapidly.and the girl wad
ed beyond her depth. Young swam to
her assistance and pushed her to safe
ty in shallow water, but was too ex
hausted to follow, and called for help.
Lifeguards ran from a distant part
of the beach, but Young, frantic with
fear fought for 15 minutes before he
could be brought to shore.
He was still breathing, but succumb
ed, despite the use of a pulmotor.

Why Weak Nervous
People Should Take
Iron to Build
Them Up
Stimulants and Narcotic Drugs
Worse Than Useless Says Dr. E.
Sauer, Author of Medical Arti
cles on Public Health
Contrary to general opinion, a weak,
nervous condition is always dangerous.
Without Iron, your blood soon loses
Its oxygen-carrying power and can no
longer purify itself, in consequence of
which poisons accumulate which
weaken both your body and brain,
make you extremely nervous and irri
table, pale and anaemic, often cause
fits of great despondency, and under
mine all your vital organs, leading to
the development of dangerous dis
eases which have landed many a man
end woman into an untimely grave. In
such cases it is worse than useless to
take stimulants and narcotic drugs,
which "pick you up" for the moment,
maybe at the expense of your life later
on. What you need is a true blood
food—lron. "A man of blood and iron"
has always been synonymous with
great power, showing that for cen
turies physicians have well known and
prized the great value of iron. The
only trouble has been that the older
forms of iron often upset the stomach
rnd were so difficult to assimilate that
they usually actually got Into the
biood, but with late discoveries of
newer preparations of iron all this
trouble has been entirely removed.
Nuxated Iron, for example. Is easily
assimilated and does not disturb the
stomach: on the contrary, It aids diges
tion. Two five-grain tablets taken
three times per day after meals will
quickly put renewed health and vigor
into any weak, nervous man or woman
■And give you the kind of strength that
"stays there. E. Sauer. M. D.

MONDAY EVENING,
NICE QUESTION IS
RAISED ON TAXATION
■
Washery and Dredging People

NANTICOKE # GETS FIRST

j coa l have been filing
wSsV"' reports with the
Auditor General un
\jfclH99pV der thG terms of the
1 MRMWIVtIn anthracite coal tax
: i jJI UIJuJIISL ' aw - th® point was
: raised to-day by an
attorney for a coal
washing company
that the coal washed or handled from
banks or streams could no tbe taxed
because there is no way of telling
when it was mined. The question
raised is that the act can only tax coal
mined since the act "when into effect.
Officials of the Auditor General's de
partment do not think that the point
will hold and say that the act covers
coal mined and prepared for market.
Most of the coal dredging companies
are filing reports Just as are the big
producers of anthracite. For the con
venience of the companies having sev
eral collieries, a form of report giving
summaries has been prepared.
Xantlcoke Gets First. Nantlcoke
got the first warrant for payment of
Slate school appropriation sent out
from the Treasury to-day. Other dis
tricts will be paid during the week.
Blsr Increases Filed.—The Pittsburgh
Hotels Company, a new Pittsburgh
company, to-day filed notice of in
crease of stock from $5,000 to
$1,735,000. The Birdsboro Stone Com

$1,500,000 and of debt from $440,000
to $460,000.
Broke Settlement Record. Four
thousand settlements for State taxes
for this year were ordered by the
Auditor General's department last
week, breaking the record for a week.
The work is greater than usual for the
reason that new bookkeeping methods
have been adopted and many new ac
counts had to be opened.
PubUc Service Session.—The Public
Service Commission will meet to-mor
rcw morning with the usual big sched
ule of contracts. Several involve tele
phone companies in this district.

of a case of smallpox reported in that
district.

Mr. Hall Returns.—W. R. D. Hall,
of the State Highway Department, who
made the survey of the route for the
"Seeing Pennsylvania" tour planned by

day.
Making Studies.—Plans for the pre
liminary arrangements for studies to
codify laws on a number of subjects
ore being made by James X. Moore,
director of the State Legislative Refer
erce Bureau, but it will be months
before the drafts can be completed.
The general idea is to follow the plans
in making the codes submitted to the
last Legislature. The laws will be ex
amined back to Colonial times and
codes made with mention of acts or
portipns of acts to be repealed. Drafts
will then be printed for general criti
cism, but it will be well on in 1916
before they are prepared.
Xew Bulletin Planned. Arrange
ments are being made for issuance of
a bulletin by the Department of Agri
culture which will epitomize infor
mation on dairying and buttermaking.
C. H. Van Xorman. of State College,
.will prepare an article on feeding of
cows; C. B. Cochran, of West Chester,
will discuss milk and its examinations,
and Mrs. Jean Kean Foulke, of Chea
ter county, will write on buttermaking.
The Road Patrol.—Highway Com
missioner Cunningham is at work on
the list of men to be named for the
road maintenance patrol system,
special care being taken to secure men
who will meet requirements. There
have been so many applications that it
is taking more time to get started than
expected.
To Attend Convention. James
Sweeney, chief of standards, will leave
Friday for Philadelphia to attend the
State convention of sealers. Harry A.
Boyer. of this city, will preside.

sioner of Health Samuel G. Dixon does

Erie flood. In a statement just issued

and careful manner In which the work
of cleaning up was being handled that
dangers would be overcome.
Armory Board Meeting.—The State
Armory Board will meet on Thursday
night at the Indiana encampment. The
Philadelphia, Washington and Scran
ton armories will be considered.
Wants More Money.—The Luzerne
county mothers' pension board Is
rather disappointed over the outcome
of the distribution of mothers' pension
funds. The Luzerne peope had ex
pected more money.

James E. Roderick has returned from
a trip of inspection to western dis
tricts. He Is Retting ready to organize
two new districts.
