German Nation Kept in Dark on Decision to Wage Ruthless War Zurich, Feb. . 13.—(Via Paris) Although it proved to be impossible to keep secret the intention of the German government to inaugurate un restricted submarine warfare the Associated Press having received in formation in Berlin of the forthcom ing action as long as four weeks in advance of the official announcement —the German public remained almost entirely in the dark. A rigid censor ship was enforced and only a com paratively few persons knew of the significance of the frequent confer ences among political, military and naval authorities with Emperor Wil liam at great headquarters. Even the conference on the Emperor's birthday, at. which the decision was definitely reached, was heralded throughout Former Un ited States Senator Mason .Pioneer in Pure hood and Drugs Legislation, Father of Rural Free Delivery System Takes Nuxate to obtain renewed strength, poiver and endurance after the hardest fought political campaign of his life in which he was elected Congressman from the State of Illinois, The results he obtained from taking Nuxated Iron were so surprising that SENATOR MASON NOW SAYS Nuxated Iron should be made known to every nerv ous, run down, anaemic man, woman and child. Opinion of Doctor Howard James, late of United States Public Health Service who has prescribed and thoroughly tested Nuxated Iron in his own private practice WHAT SENATOR MASON SATS: "I have often said 1 would never rec commend medicine of any kind. I be lieve that tliq. doctor's place. However, after the hardest political campaign of my life, without a chance for a vaca tion, I had been starting to court every morning with that horrible tired feel ing one cannot describe. T was advised to try Nuxated Iron. As a pioneer in the pure food and drug legislation, I was at first loath to try an advertised remedy, but after advising with one of my medical friends, I gave it a test. The results have been so beneficial in my own case I made up my mind to let my friends know about it, and y<ju are at liberty to publish this statement if you so desire.. I nin now Mity-flvc yearn of ago, aud I feci that a remedy which will bullil up the Htrrngth and Increase the power of endurance of a ■■inn of my age .should be known to every nervous, run-down anemic ninn, woman unri child." Senator Mason's statement- in regard to Nuxated Iron was shown to several physicians who were requested to give their opinions thereon. Dr. Howard James, late of the United States Public Health Service, said: "Senator Mason is to be commended on handing out this statement on Nux ated iron for public print. There are thousands of men and women who need :t strength and blood-builder, but do x not know what to take. There is noth ing like organic iron Nuxated Iron to give increased strength, snap vigor, and staying power. It enriches the blood,' brings roses to the cheeks of women and is an unfailing source of re newed vitality, endurance and power lor men who burn up too rapidly their nervous energy in the strenuous strain of the great business competition of tho day!" Dr. King, Q. New York physician and author, said. "I heartily indorse Sen ator Mason's statement in regard to Nuxated Iron. There can be no vigor ous Iron men without iron. Pallor means anemia. Anemia means iron de ficiency. The skin of anemic men and women is pale; the flesh flabby; the muscles lack tone; the brain fags, and the memory fails, and often tliey be come weak, nervous. Irritable, despond ent and melancholy. "In the most common foods of Ameri ca: tho starches, sugars, table syrups, candles, polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, degerminated cornmeal, no longer is iron to be found. Itefinlng processes have removed tho iron of Mother Earth from these im poverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are responsible for another grave iron loss. "Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must supply the iron de ficiency in your food by using some form of organic Iron—Nuxated Iron just as you would use salt when your food lias not enough salt." Dr. K. Sauer. a Poston phyßieian who has studied abroad in great European medical institutions, .said: "Senator Mason is right. As I have said a hun dred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. "Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and ask od me to give him a preliminary ex amination for life insurance. I was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man; in fact, a young man he reallv was, notwithstanding his ago. The se cret, lie said, was talcing organic iron— Nuxated Iron had filled him with re newed life. At thirty he was In bad health: at forty-six he was care-worn and nearly all in. Now at fifty, after taking Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vi tality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue.

With the publication of the an nouncement the rumor immediately came into circulation that Foreign Secretary Zimmermann had held out till the last against unrestrained sub marine Warfare, giving in only when an open breach with General Luden dorf.

This rumor was denied by those in authority who claimed that Dr. Zimmermann made up his mind some time ago for more vigorous use of submarines and is now one of the most enthusiastic cham pions of this policy.

Mason, recently elected Member of tht U. S. Congress from Illinois. From the Congressional Directory, published by the United States Government—"Wit E. Mason, Senator from Illinois was elected to the 50th Congress in 1887. to the 51st Congress in 1891—defeated for the Blind Congress 1892—Elected Senator to the 55th Con gress 1897 to 1903." Senator Mason is now Congressman-Elect from the State of Illinois. Senator Mason's championship of Pure Food and Drugs legislation, his fight for the rural free delivery system, and his strong advocacy of all bills favoring labor and the rights of the masses as against trusts and combines, made him a national figure at Wash ington and endeared him to the hearts of the working man and the great masses pf people throughout the United States. Senator Mason lias the distinction of being one of the really big mon of the nation. Ills strong endorsement of Nuxated Iron must convince any intelligent thinking reader that it must be a prep aration of very great merit and one which the Senator feels is bound to be of great value to the masses of people everywhere, otherwise lie could not afford to lend his name to it, especially after his strong advo cacy of pure food and drugs legislation. Since Nuxated Iron lias obtained such an enormous sale—over three million people using it annually other iron preparations are often recommended us a substitute for it. The reader should remember that there is a vast difference between ordinary metallic iron and the organic iron contained in Nuxated Iron, therefore always insist on having Nuxated Iron as recommended by Dr. Howard James, late of the United States Public Health Service; Dr. Schuyler C. Jacques, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York, and other physicians. In this connection Dr. Howard James says: "Iron to be of the slightest value to the human svs tem must be in a combination which may be easily assimilated. In the case of metallic salts of iron iron acetate, etc.. it i,s very doubtful if sufficient actuai iron 3an be taken up and incorporated into the. blood to bo of any set-vice, especially in view of the disadvan tages entailed by its corrosive action upon the stom ach and the damaging effect upon the dental enamel When, however, we deal with Iron in organic com bination, such for instance as albuminate, or. better still, Nuxated Iron, a far different story is told. Wo will observe no destructive action upon the teeth- no corrosive effect upon the stomach. The iron is readily assimilated into the blood and quickly makes its pres enco felt In increased vigor, snap and staying power." trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the follow ing test: See how long- you can work or how far you can walk without be coming tired. Next, take two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again, and see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run-down people who were ailing all the while double their strength and endur ance and, entirely rid themselves of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to four teen days' time Bim ply by taking iron in the proper form. And this, after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without ob taining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of re duced iron. iron acetato or tincture of iron Fimply to save a few cents. The iron demanded by Mother Nature for the red coloring matter in the blood of her children is, alas! not that kind of iron. You must take Iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and as similated to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete and prizefighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and en durance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray: while many another has gone down in in glorious defeat simply for the lack of Iron." I)r. Schuyler C. Jacques. Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hos pital, New York City, said: "I have never before given out any medical in formation or advice for publication, as I ordinarily do not believe in it. But in the case of Nux ated Iron I foel I would bo remiss in my duty not to mention it. I have ' taken it myself and given it to my patients with most sur prising: and satisfactory results. And those who wish quickly to increase their strength, power and endurance will flnd It a most remarkable and wonderfully effective remedy." NOTE—Nuxated iron which is pre scribed and recommended above by physicians in such a great varietj of cases, is not a patent medicine nor secret remedy, but one which is well known to druggists and whose iron constituents are widely prescribed by omincnt physicians both in Europe and America. Unlike the older Inorganic Iron products it is easily assimilated, does not injuro the toeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach; on the' WHAT'S THIS!

Ilarrisburgers with a strain of Pennsylvania-German blood who have a fondness for dill pickles, Swiss cheese and pretzels, will be lucky soon if they can get even the pretzels. This was the information given to day by wholesale dealers who handle the city's food supply. The situation has become exceedingly scarce. The cold weather, too, has made such a demand on the anthracite sup ply in the city that dealers are looking towards the railroads with' something like anxiety for coal shipments.

Many kinds of trees arfi worshipped in India for many kinds of reasons. Some are supposed to be the abode of demons who must be pro pitiated. The Sacred Bo tree under which Buddha received enlightenment is worshipped by pilgrims who come in thousands. In some small villages where there are more women than men, it often happens that there are no men of equal caste to the girl whose time lias come to marry.
