Wise men and women have learned that It does not pay to allow health or nerves to run down and are quick to take advantage of Nature's great est red blood and nerve tonic, Phoa phated Iron, the mimite they feel they are slowing up. * Whatever your work may be there Is no reason why It should continue to tire you: work should only use the right amount of your energy. It Is trying to work on y iur nerves and forcing yourself thai wastes your strength, runs you down, gives you those restless nights, loss of appetite and Indigestion, when you get up In the morning as tired as when you went to bed. There Is no sense In anyone being a victim of 111 health, poor blood, over work, nerves or the blues when Phosphated Iron will afford such prompt and permanent relief. All over the country men and wom en In every walk of life lay their good health, strength and nerves of Iron to the use of Phosphated Iron, ♦he red blood and nerve builder, and It will also put you on your feet, make you feel like a live one.

Gorgas and leading druggists i .everywhere, „ . , „ Women of Europe Waste No Sympathy on Germans Women of Europe are wasting no sympathy upon the German women who showed no pity when their sis ters were Buffering In Belgium, France and elsewhere. A telegram from Paris transmits the the following excerpt from tho reply of the national council of French women to the appeal of German' women: "Why should we intervene to-day against conditions which have but one object, to render impossible the recommencing of the war? Our pity Is first for the innocent vic tims; for our wretched prisoners whose number has been so sadly re duced owing to typhus and famine; for our reconquered populations, troubled and 111-treatod with such hatred. Let German women re member and they will understand our silence." According to Paris advices the na-' % tional council of French women has declined to intercede with the; French Government to migrate the terms of the German armistice. In reply to a message published in the press from German women to Ma dame Jules Sigfrjed, president of the council, the counoil unanimously adopted this resolution: "No. We will not intercede with our Government to migrate the con ditions of the armistice, which are only too justified by the manner in< which Germany has waged war. "In the course of these tragic years German women, believing vic tory was certain, remained silent at the crimes of their Government, their army and their navy. "At the congress at The Hague to which we refused to go, the presi dent of the,national council of Ger man women was invited to protest against the violation of Belgium and against the torpedoing of tho Lusl taia. She wrote in reply: " 'We are at one with our people.
