AUSTRIAN ARMY
IN ALBANIA IS
CAUGHT IN TRAP
Capture of German Allies Is
Now Considered Next
Big War News
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., Oct. 10. —The
Austrian army in Albania is in dan
ger of immediate capture. The
' Allies are now after the fleeing Teu
tons and may surround them on
their way out.
Army experts and diplomats are
keenly interested in the critical po
sition the surrender of the Bulgar
ians has left the Austrians. Some
time ago Austria had three routes
by which she could have withdrawn
her forces, but two of these are
practically closed because of recent
evfents. She could have gone out
by Ochrida or Prizrend, through
Serbia, but with the Italians follow
ing them from the southwest and
the Serbians waiting for them on
the northwest, and the Allies domi
nating the Adriatic- Sea some dis
tance north of Durazzo her only
hope, and that is scant, is by Scu
tari.
It is believed that the next big
war news will be that the Allies
have taken approximately 100,000
Austrians in Albania.
It was said yesterday by persons
in position to know the facts that
the Allies are rushing men and sup
plies to Albania through Durazzo
from which they drove the Aus
trians a week ago and destroyed the
naval base there.
It seems to be but a question of
a short time until the Austrian army
is rounded up on its way to Scutari
by theh Italians, Serbs and French,
who are after them.
Washington Looks For
Early Answer to Note
Washington, Oct. 10.—An early
response to President Wilson's note
of inquiry to the German Chancellor
is expected by American officials.
While realizing that an answer to
' the three pertinent questions put to
the Prince of Baden will be very dif
ficult if' the original proposals of
the German government were not
sincere, officials are confident that
internal conditions in Germany and
the tremendous exigencies of the
military situation will force speedy
action by the Chancellor if he hopes
'to prolong the existence of his cab
inet a few days.
So far as the hold of the govern
ment upon the people is concerned
conditions in Austria are even far
worse than those in Germany. This
fact is calculated to strongly affect
the German government, which is
understood to entertain grave'
doubts of the strength of purpose of
the dual monarchy and to fear that
Austria, or perhaps Hungary, act
ing independently, will follow Bul
garia in seeking an unconditional
peace. This would leave Germany to
wage the war alone, for it is a fore
gone conclusion that Turkey already
is lost to the Central Alliance.

"In my opinion the greatest curse
to the health and strength of Ameri
can people of to-day is the alarming
deficiency of iron in their blood. Iron
is absolutely essential to enable your
blood to transform the food you eat
into muscular tissue and bruin. It is
through iron in the red coloring mat

oxygen enters the body. Without

In regard to the value of Nux

sa'd: "As Health Commissioner of the
City of Chicago, I was importuned
many times to recommend different
medicines, mineral waters, etc. Nev

in the case of Nuxated Iron, I feel
an exception should bo made to the
rule. From my own experience with
it, I feel that it is such a valuable
remedy that it ought to be used in
every hospital and prescribed by every
physician in this country, and if my

years ago. This because of the de
mineralized diet which now is served
daily in thousands of homes and also
because of the demand for greater
resistance necessary to offset the
greater number of health hazards to
be met at every turn."
No matter what other tonics or iron
remedies you have used without suc
cess—if you are not strong and well,
you owe it to yourself to make the
following test: See how long you
can work or how far you can walk
without becoming tired. Next take
two live-grain tablets of Nuxated
Iron, three times per day after
for two weeks. Then test your
strength again and see how much
you have gained. Nuxated Iron will
increase the strength, power and en
durance of delicate, nervous, run
down people in two weeks' time in
many Instances.
Manufacturers' Notei Nuxated Iron,
which is prescribed and recommended
by physicians and which is now be
ing used by over three million people
annually, is not a secret remedy but
one which is well known to druggists
everywhere. Unlike the older inor
ganic iron products it is easily assim
ilated and does not injure the teeth,
make them black, not upset the stom
ach. The manufacturers guarantee
successful and entirely satisfactory
results to every purchaser or they
will refund your money. It is dis
