I began taking It and was surprised that it built me up so fast. I did not need any alter the first bottle. It is the finest medi cine of its kind on earth. When I use any pills for indigestion and constipa tion I always use the 'Pleasant Pel lets.' They relieve me and seem to tone up the slack in the stomach and other parts. I like Dr. Plerce'« reme dies the best of any."—Mß. E. O. EteowißS, Union City. Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery cures diseases of the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition. It increases the assimilative powers, and purifies and enriches the blood. When diseases of organs remote from the stomach are caused by the stom ach, the cure of the stomach results in the cure of the other diseases, in heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, etc. Sold in either tablet or liquid form. If your dealer does not keep the Bugar-coated tablets, send 50 cents (in stamps) for a box. It is the world's proved blood purifier. It's not a secret remedy for its ingredients are printed on the wrapper. Start to take it to-day and before another day has passpd, the impurities of the blood will begin to leave your body through the liver, kidneys, bowels and skin, and in a few days you will know by your steadier nerves, firmer step, keener mind, brighter eves and clearer skin that the bad blood is passing out, and new, rich, pure blooa is filling your arteries. The saineicood blood will cause pimples, acifl| eczema and all skin eruptions to aFy up and disappear. Why You Should Eat Iron If Nervous or "Run Down" Pale, Weak, or Thin—V Secret of the Great Strength and Endurance Often Shown by Athlete* and Prize Fighter* By Dr. E. Sauer —Physician-writer. A grain of wheat played hide and seek with the mummies in the dry dust and dirt of the pyramids of Egypt for 4000 years—then It afterwards grew V'hen water was added to the soil. Hut rain or moisture is absolutely necessary to change wheat Into a living plant: so iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to absorb and carry oxygen, to change the bread and meat you eat Into blood, brain and brawn. Without iron your food passes Through your body just like coal passing through a grate without being burned. You may eat enough, but your- food doesn't do you any good. You don't get the strength out of it. Nature has decreed that there should be one part of iron In every 230 of red fcorpuscles. To supply this demand she has placed iron in a great variety of food you eat. but often you do not get enough or it Is not properly assimi lated. This Is such a serious thing that old mother Nature has fixed a loud alarm bell (nervousness.l a big sign <paleness), and other danger signals, to warn you when your blood needs Iron. That weak, nervous "rundown" con dition, those fits of melancholy and the "blues." that nervous Irritability that causes you to "fly all to pieces" on the slightest provocation: those restless nights; pains across the back: disposi tion to tire easily: profuse perspiration inside your hands; that nervous consti pation or Indigestion accompanied by pale anaemic symptoms are nothing in the world but your starving blood cor fiuscles crying out for iron, iron, more ron . In the race of strength and en durance, many an athlete and prize fighter has won the day simply because he filled his blood with iron and many another has gone down in defeat sim ply for lack of iron. Two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxated'lron eaten or taken three times a uav after meals will often give most surprising physical and mental power in one or two weeks' time. I always first prescribe It In every case. Indicated above, that comes to me.—E. Sauer. M. D NOTE Nuxated Iron recommend ed above by Dr. Sauer, is one of tlie newer organic iron compounds. Unlike the older inorganic iron products. It is easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach: on the contrary, It is a most potent remedy, in nearly all forms of indigestion, as well as for nervous, run down conditions. It is dispensed in this city by all leading druggists.—Adver tisement.

TUFSDAY EVENING* TO RESUME IRKI FEU BUILDING When Finished City Will Have Port Office of Imposing Dignity Proposals for the completion of the work on the remodelling of the Federal Building: will be received by the custo dian, Postmaster Frank C. Sites, Sep tember 28. The work was started under the first contract over two years ago, and has been frequently Interrupted for vari ous reasons; tirst by the failure of the contractor anil then by a change of plans and delay in appropriations. Re vision of the original plans has finally been completed and the drawings and specifications are now on exhibition at the Post Office. These drawings contemplate an im portant change in the original plan respecting the mall receptacle in the Court street side. The granite coping from the western side of the extension in Locust street will be raised to a lieigh of about four feet and the coping from the corner of Locust and Court streets will slope gradually from that a->nroxlmate height to the level of the present lawn near Walnut street. All mail wagons, which will soon give way to motor trucks in all probability, will enter the plaza in Court street near Walnut and will deliver the mail on a platform near Locust, making It un necessary to have two entrances to the driveway, and thus avoiding conges tion In Locust street. The raising of the coping from its present height will not in any way interfere with tne side walks in Court and Locust streets. Ornamental Hailing An ornamental railing will extend along the top of the coping from the corner of the extension in Locust street to the foot of -the slope in Court street. The contract, when let, will allow a period of eighteen months for the work to be completed, so it is certain that Mr. Sites and his corps will not be set tled in their new quarters for at least a year and a half more. The postmas ter and assistant postmaster and the money order division will have their offices on the second floor, while the registry and mailing divisions will be located on the first floor, aR they now are. The new equipment will not be purchased until the building is occu pied. Incrrn«e* Efficiency The addition which is being erected in Locust street will add greatly to the beauty and appearance of the Federal Building. There will be no doors In Locust street, and the present entrances In Third and Walnut streets will be undisturbed. The efficiency of the dis tributing process will be made greater, and the handling of the mail will be facilitated by the Increase in floor space, which the addition pefmits. The size of the workroom will be just about doubled. In the basement there will be addi tional space also reserved and it will be possible to carry a larger amount of stock than Is at present the case. The skylight that Is to be placed in the center of the new structure will give the clerks plenty of light. In the front part of the Post Office a new stairway will be built where the old one formerly stood and a modern, well equipped elevator is to be install ed In tne center of this stairway, a lit tle to the right of where the old ele vator ran. When all the work is finish ed. Harrisburg will have a Post Office which will properly dignify the Govern ment which it represents. OR PHFXM Saturday matinee and night, Septem ber 18—"Twin Beds."
