In that she has no knowledge of the pain that follows ever In her footsteps," Youth's enthusiasm, however, ta not dampened, and he rays to Pleas ure; "I think' you arc the end of the rainbow, and all the treasures of the world are in your keeping. I think you are the sunshine of n cloudless day and all the (lowers of the earth look up to you." Experience has a different point of view. He says: "I think Pleasure is but the stain of last night's wine, spilled upon the tablecloth. Site Is but a snowflalco fallen into the ocean. Pleasure, my boy, Is the last crimson Hood that the setting sun has left to die in a cold gray sky." "Experience" will close n two day's engagement at the Orphoum to-night.

YANKEE ENEMIES MAY HAVE BLOWN UP SYRUP TANK Purity Distilling Company As sumes Blow Came From Outside of Vessel By Associated Press Boston, Jan. 16.—The cause of the explosion of a huge tank of molasses on the watdr front off Cemmerclal street, yesterday, by which probably a dozen people were killed, had not been determined at an early hour' this morning. Harry F. R. Dolan, attorney for the Purity Distilling Company, Issued the following state ment: "The company assumes that the tank was broken by something which acted upon it from the outside. We are conducting an investigation. It is possible the tank may have been broken by enemies of the United States who knew that we were en gaged during the war in the manu facture of alcohol which was used In making munitions." Theonly bodies identified during the night were those of a fireman, George Leahy, and two residents of I tenements in the vicinity, Mrs. Bridget Clougherty and William A. Dulfee. A large number of the in jured were taken to the relief hos pital. The tank was owned by the Purity Distilling Company, a sub sidiary of the. United States Indus trial AlcOhol Company, of Cam bridge. Two million gallons of mo lasses rushed in a mighty stream over the streets and converted into a sticky mass the wreckage of several small buildings which had been smashed by the force of the explo sion. The greatest mortality apparently occurred in a city building, where a score of municipal employes were eating their lunch. The structure was demolished. Another city building also was torn from its foundations and two women occupants were se verely injured. A section of the tank wall fell on a tire house, crushing its three fire men, including Leahy, who was killed, were buried in the ruins. The . r est of the tank wall crashed against the elevated structure of the Boston Klevated Railway in Commercial street, damaging" three spuns, sus pending all tratllc on the line which connects the north and south sta tions. A small dwelling on Copps Hills terrace slid into the street, appar ently sucked down by the receding tide of molasses. Mrs. Clougherty was thrown through a window and killed. While the cause of the explosion had not been definitely determined to-nipht, state police officials ex pressed the opinion that it resulted from gas fumes generated by fer mentation in the molasses.

Physicians Explain Why Women Need More Iron in Their Blood Today Than 20 Years Ai Say Anaemia—Lack of Iron is Greatest Curse to the Health, Strength, Vitality £ Beauty of the Modern American Woman. DH. FERDINAND KING, New York I*h)'Nlclnn and Medical Author, suys physicians nhould preiicrlbe more organic Iron—Novated Iron—to atipply the Iron deltclency. Opln tona of Dr. JtinieN Eranela Sullivan, formerly Physician of Ilellcvue Hospital (Outdoor Dept.), New York, nnd the Wealcheater County Hoapltnlt Dr. A. J. Newman, former l'oltce .Suriceon of Chicago, nnd other phyalclann who hnve thor ouichly tested the value of Novated Iron. | Any, woman who tires easily, is I nervous or irritable, or looks pale, haggard, and worn should at once have her blood examined for iron de- j ficiency—administration of sipipie Nuxated Iron will often increase the strength and endurance of weak,, nervous, careworn women in two weeks' time. "There can be no strong, healthy, beautiful, rosy-cheeked women, with out iron," says Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York physician and Medical Author. "I have strongly emphasized the fact that doctors should prescribe more organic iron—Nuxated Iron—for their nervous, run-down, weak, hag gard-looking women patients. Pallor means anaemia. The skin of an anaemic woman Is pale, the flesh dabby. The muscles lack tone, the brain fags, and the memory fails, and often they become weak, nervous, irritable, despondent and melancholy. When the iron goes from the oiood of women the roses go from their cheeks. "In .the most common foods of America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macar oni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, degerminated cornmeal, no lon&er Is Iron to be found. Defining processes have removed the iron iof Mother Karth from these impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are responsible for unother grave Iron loss. Therefore, you should supply the iron deficiency in your food by using some form of or ganic iron. Just as you would use salt when your food has not enough salt." Dr. A. J. Newman, former Police • Surgeon of Chicago, and former House Surgeon, Jefferson Park Hos pital, Chicago, sayßi "It has been my particular duty during the past six years to assist in keeping Chi cago's Ave thousand blue coats in good health and perfect fighting trim, so that they would be physically equipped to withstand all manner of storms and ravages of nature's ele ments. Recently I wns prompted to give Nuxated Iron a trial. This remedy hss proven through my own tests of it to excel any preparation I have ever used for creating red blood, building up the nerves, strengthening the muscles nnd cor correctlng digestive disorders." Dr. Schuyler C. Jacques, formerly Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York City, said: "I have never before given out any me dical Information or advise for pub lication as 1 ordinarily, do not be- JANUARY 16, 1919.
