I have taken Nuxated Iron myself and experienced its health-giving, strength-building effect, and in the in terests of the public welfare, I feel it tnv duty to make known the results of its use. 1 am well past my three-score vears and want to say that I believe that my own great physical activity is due largely to-day to my personal use of Nuxated Iron, and if my endorsement shall induce anaemic, nervous, run-down men and women to take Nuxated Iron, and receive the wonderful tonic benefits which I have received, I shall feel great ly gratified that I made an exception to my life-long rule in recommending it. From mv own experience with Nuxated Iron. I feel that it Is such a valuable remedy that it ought to be used in ev ery hospital anfl prescribed by every physician in this country." Former Health Commissioner, City of Chicago. NOTE —Nuxated Iron which has been used by Former Health Commissioner Kerr with sin h surprising results, and which is pre scribed and recommended by physicians, is not a secret remedy, but one is well known to druggists everywhere. Unlike the older inorganic iron products it is easily as similated. does not injure the teeth, make them black, nor upset the stomach. The manufacturers guarantee successful and en tirely satisfactory results to every purchaser or they will refund your money. It is dis pensed by all good druggists.

Some of the rigors of fasting pre scribed for the Eenten season, which I begins Ash Wednesday. February 13, ! are considerably abated, the most Im portant change being the removal of j the prohibitions against eating fish ' and meat at the same meal. Another change is the cessation of ! die Lenten fast and abstinence at noon on Saturday of Holy Week and a change in the weekly meatless days I rfi ring Lent. Saturday is substituted [ for Wednesday, meat not being al | lowed on Fridays nor Saturdays rx ' i-ept after noon on Holy Saturday, ! but it will be allowed Wednesday, 1 except Ash Wednesday and Ember days throughout the year.

FIGHTING MEN j. 1 Smokes Are the One Thing Defense Council Would Have Sent in Quantity . When he can pull on his pipe, I Solace and help to evoke — When the brief moment is ripe. Whom does he see In the smoke? : Maybe a swettheart or wife. Left when the battle guns speke: In his full hour of life Whom does he see in the smoke? j If you have given him true Maybe—it isn't p. joke— i Maybe 'tv ill be even you Whom he will see in the smoke. Through the blue wreaths, to his glance, All are a glorified folk: Some time and somewhere in France, j Whom will he see in the smoke? I If Mcl.andburg, Wilson had fol- I lowed out the thought in his poem he might have added a romance of how the soldier of the legion saw j the girl who sent him the tobacco in i h's reverie. But Poet Wilson very wisely pulled tip at the right place. His verses are only intended to sug gest v hat a whiff of fragrant Ameri cen tobacco smoke mans to tlfe fighter in the trench. And it Is nec essary to keep reminding the people of America, who have, in point of I fact, made no considerable sacrifice I v et, that tobacco ts needed, and that in this vicinity the funds should be sent to this newspaper, whence they will be speedily forwarded to the Smokes for Soldiers Fund. Tobacco is the one thing ihnt the Council of National Defense would have the citizen contribute liberally. Tobacco, much rather than fcod. "Don't send food to soldiers and sail ors" is tie last urgent request from this organisation. "Abundant lood is supplied them and the sending by friends anl relatives is not neces sary. The aggregate quantity of oca thus is enormous ond much of it, conveyed long distances in heated cars or ships, is more <■> less injured and harmful lo the health of the men." Tobacco is not apo'lei in transpor tation. It retains all its native aroma. It cheers the soldier. It helps him to ki e;> his fighting trim. When are you Boing to have that smokeless day? A.i easy way to help Yankee sol diers get tobacco is to contribute a quarter to the Harrisburg Te.legraph'j Tctacco Fund. A soldier in France will then get tobacco retailing at 45 cents. Valuable Heirloom Placed on Dog Lost Minneapolis, Minn.—Caroline Ru-j ben, the little daughter of I. H. Rett-1 lien, of 1824 .Fremont avenue south, was sitting in her father's automo-] bile on Nicollet avenue. Her pet fox terrier. Trot, was with her. The little girl was wearing a neck lace that had belonged to her great grandmother. Just for fun she took it off and put it around Trot's neck. | Just by chance Trot saw a dog he didn't like and jumped out of the car and chased it. Trot came back in a few minutes, but the necklace did not. Handy "Pocket" Flask Caused Intemperance Chester, Pa.—No more half-pints of whisky will be sold in this city, and there is weeping and wailing end gnashing of teeth among many of the thirsty Individuals who like to carry flasks in their hip pockets. The real cause for the abolition of the half-pint is the first effort on the part, of the industrial establish ments t/o break up the practice of employes carrying the small bottle into the plants during working hours. It is believed that with the discontinuance of the sale of half pints this practice will be broken up. STVTE COLLEGE TO GIVE REGI'LAR SI MMER SESSION State College, Pa., Jan. 31. Dr. E. It.
