Is YOUR BLOOD STARVING FOR WANT OF IRON? Iron Is Red Blood Food It Helps to Put Strength and Energy into the Veins of Men and Roses Into the Cheeks of Women. Why Nuxated Iron so Quickly Builds Up Weak, Nervous Run-down People. Thousands of men and women are impairing their constitutions, laying themselves open to illness and literal ly losing their grip on health, simply because their blood is thinning out and possibly starving through lack of iron. Lack of iron in the blood not only makes a man a physical and mental weakling, nervous, irritable, easily fatigued, but it utterly robs him of tho virile force, that stamina and strength of will which are so necessary to success and power in every walk of life It may also trans form a beautiful, sweet-tempered woman into one who is cross, nerv ous and irritable. Iron is absolutely essential to en able your blood to transform the food you eat Into muscular tissue and brain. It.ls through iron in the red coloring matter of the body that life sustaining oxygen enters the body. Without iron there is no strength, vitality and edurance to combat ob stacles or withstand severe strains. Contrary to general opinion lack of iron In the blood does not necessarily mean you do not have enough blood, but it means your blood is not of the right kind. To help make strong, keen, red-blooded people there is nothing better than organic iron—Nuxated Iron. Unlike the older inorganic iron products It is easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black nor upset the stomach. No matter what other tonics or iron remedies you have used without success, if you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how Abtolalely W saßagffi&S BXAMINAJIOII FREB .s ; A WAjs^^M MMM< ft /> y* mim ••■ iittj an ~sr /v^Hiiiw^ , W ■ X <— M) TTAkMrtbUkO.

As the road followed the railroad nearly all the way to Namur, I passed my comrades who were going on foot to the same town. They had my sympathy marching through that rain. Namur People Kind My arrival at Namur I am not liable to forget for a long time, be cause It was too firmly Impressed on me by the kindness of *he peo ple. You see, our guard .lid not know where the hospital was we were assigned to, so he needs must ask, and while following directions we walked through the principal streets. Dressed in the blue of France we naturally drew a lot of j attention. I Truly, if there would not have been so many Boche about we would have started a parade. In fact, we did start a small one, for many people walked along beside us, asking us where we had come from and where we were going. When they found we were bound for a hospital their pity assumed more practical shape, for people came running from every quarter to of fer us presents—eatable ones, you know. At first they slipped them to us sealthily, but on finding our guard did not object they did it openly. Soon my pockets were bulging with 'every known variety of eats. Every thing from a potato to a bonbon. One woman came out of a shop and gave us each a loaf of bread, a gift that surprised us so much we nearly forgot to say "Merci," for not only was it k much needed gift, but we had not had so much bread for our very own for months. Naturally, the shock left Us some what stunped. Just walking through those streets did me more good than all my time spent in the hospital, for the streets were filled with peo ple, and lots of them were pretty "mademoiselles," too. Well, you know what a good effect they would have, especially when they smiled. Most of them did that, too, or moved to pity, even gave me pres ents. Once three came down on me all at the same time. One gave me an apple, another cigarettes and the third, the prettiest one, by the way, a little pack of candy. Indeed, if that street had been a little longer I would have been well before I reached the hospital, for with all the feminine attention being show ered on me I was fast forgetting where 1 was bound and for what reason, and then there were so many pretty shops along the street, with their windows decorated so prettily that after I had walked a block I thought I was In Paris. What surprised me most was the number of candy shops, and they had real cakes and candy in, too. Not the kind of substitute stuff one got in Paris. This was the real thing, and the thick yellow cream oozing out of the chocolate eclairs placed so temptingly in the window made a mouth-watering sight in deed. But nobody handed me any of these delicacies. Loaded With Presents Anyway, by the time we arrived at the hospital we were loaded down with all manner of presents. Now, that we had arrived, I had lit- ut that the adjutant ou J d , have his knee bandaged I v 6 Kiven Bev 'eral pills, and we Thai „ b ° ?h nt ° n the road "k'ain. That as the way we had noticed tho Boche had treated sick prison ers, so we naturally expected the same. Nothing like this happened, however. Our names were written down, we were taken Into a hospital ward, given a nightshirt and told to be In bed before the doctor came around. We needed no second order, for this was a soft bed covered with clean, if coarse, linen and warm cov era to boot. Did we go to bed ? Well, .". s ®| r WG dkU "Cooties and all." s?L as Buch a novel sensation that neither of us slept that night were not used to anything BO soft, you know, but believe me, we grew accustomed to it much quicker than the old plank beds. No, I had no kick coming about the service of this hospital, for I was given all I wanted to eat I had a clean, soft bed, and not being very sick, did not need much med ical attention. All that I needed to & take fi°f„ CBt and 1 P roc ®<led to take it in large quantities. The doctor and nurse seemed to know ™♦ ' 5 after taking my tem perature and giving me a pill, the first two days' they let me strictly alone. The nurse did not even take my temperature after that time. Not that I wanted her to hold my hand for she wasn't one of those pretty ones one reads about; besides she was a Boche: A nice, fat, tubby one, with the usual feet, size 12 Get hive Meals Dally nuJ? Probably will not believe me when 1 say that five meals a dav were given us in this hospital. Thev were not the kind of meals you T ough l B0 don '* begin to i OV S e * The first nieal consisted of a cup of coffee and a garfne bread With ole omar- u,iw boU * A? a ' rn ' tk ey came around w j 4h another piece of greased bread arid a cup of beef broth, and at 12 came soup, a whole Bucket of it. No bread was served with the soup however. The soup was not "Jull with io. h6r ; but Uck eatable soup with lots of meat in. Several times we even got chicken soup have aU thls he Wished; that is, if he was a fast eater and some of those fat Huns could' sure lap up that soup at a great rate There were about a dozen Boche in the same room with us, also two other Frenchmen, and as far as I could see there was nothing the mat ter with the majority of those Boche. Golly, how they could eat' Some would get away with three bowls of soup at a sitting, and that bow]s° nS ' < * era k' e ' *° r 4key were big But my friend, the adjutant, was not far behind. Man! How that Frenchman could eat. And he was only a little runt, too. Dad could not accuse him of having hollow legs, either, for they were both bow ed and painfully thin—about the nearest thing to pipe stems I ever saw. I used to envy him his ap petite in the hospital, for I had none and we had plenty to eat In waTslim. had my Plty ' for eaon * Not only did he eat all he could get from the Boche. but he ate the loaf of bread the Belgian woman *5? him not to mention the other gifts he had. Not only that, but he got out his cigarettes again and passed both those and some bonbons around to those fat ambu scade Boche. Golly! but he made me sore! If I had had one of my old wooden shoes, I surely would have sent it his way. Three days later he caught the grippe. It served him right, for to this day I think he ate himself sick Besides, it was a fitting punishment for giving of his lttle store of ciga rettes and other gifts to the Boche Then to top it all off, with a, BXSIUBBOHO Cfißk TEnEOKXra fever of 120 degrees, he moved his bed up beside the stove, saying that as his former bed had been near a door he had caught the grippe from a draft. Perhaps he did. I don't know, but moving up beside that hot stove did not help any, for they always kept it red hot, and his fever promptly went up to 130 degrees. But did he move? He did not. What he wanted us to do was put the fire out. We knew there was a screw loose somewhere then, and let him rave. Interested in life Again After two days of this much needed rest. I began to take some interest in life, my appetite return ed with redoubled vigor, I took an interest in the kind of soup served, and began making it difficult for those fat Boche to get three bowls of soup. Finding a Boche who had been in New York for some time, I got all the news as fast as it ap peared in the paper. It was awful cloBo to the armistice then, so natu rally I was interested. There were several Englishmen in the hospital also. One was a little red-headed runt, who, like most Englishmen, thought his country was the greatest in the world. Not only did he think so, but tried to make me think so, as well. Which was sure a waste of words. Argu ments raged, long and fiercely, as to the greatness of our respective countries, and would you believe It, he had never heard of the Revolu tionary war or the war of 1812, so I had a hard time making him be lieve his country had been licked twice. Waiting Is Tiresome Waiting around In that hospital soon grew very tiresome, for sign ing the armistice seemed to be as far away as ever. I was getting plenty to eat, but I had nothing to do, not even anything to read and time hung very heavy on my-hands. Escape was out of the question, for my clothes had all been taken to be : i |i Anthracite Available ♦ For all Communities—For all purposes—ln any quantity By an order effective February 1,1919, the U. S. Fuel Administrator permits the resumption of shipments of anthracite in any quantity, to any community and to any consumer, and suspends all regulations and restrictions on the price of hard coaL • Coincident with the issuance of the order the Fuel Administrator gave to the press the following statement relative to the prices of anthracite which during the period of the war had been fixed by the Administration: J "By his Executive Order of August 23, 1917, the President adopted as maximum prices for anthracite coal, the schedule of prices which had been acquiesced in by the industry while under investigation by the Federal Trade Commission under the so-called "Calder" resolution of the Senate. This involved one price for the railroad controlled coal companies, and a price 75c higher for the individuals. With the exception of a reduction of sixty cents a ton in the prices for pea coal made October 1, 1917, and two adjustments to cover increases in miners' wages, the Fuel Administration allowed the prices fixed by the President to stand pending examination of costs such as wese made in the case of bituminous coal. "For the purpose of arriving at a fair increase in price to cover the increase in wages recommended by the War Labor Board last October, an examination was made to determine the costs of the various anthracite producing companies. The result of this examination showed that the general increases in the price of materials and labor had raised the cost of mining anthracite to such an extent that many of the companies were not receiving a fair return and that some producers of necessary coal were actually sus taining aloss on the sale of coal at the Government prices, in spite of the two increases allowed on account of advances to labor. "At the time this situation was discovered every indication pointed to an early peacle and it was deemed unwise to increase the maximum prices so near the time when, on account of the end of the war, price restrictions would in the natural course of events, be lifted entirely. "The above statement is made at this time, when price restrictions are about to be lifted, out of fairness to those companies who have patriotically kept up their production to war needs, even at a cost which resulted in many instances in a loss, not only by the individuals, but also by some of the railroad com panies, so that the impression shall not exist that the Government prices of anthracite coal in existence at the time of tKe lifting of restrictions were prices which the Fuel Administration had fixed on the basis of cost to the operators. . \ "Had the Fuel Administration's active control over maximum prices on anthracite coal been con- jinued,, the cost examination above referred to shows that it would have been necessary, on the basis of - the present wage scale, to raise these maximum prices possibly as much as 50 cents a ton above these last • • fixed by the Government,' in order to prevent financial embarrassment and perhaps the closing of com panies producing a substantial per cent, of the necessary anthracite output. i•- • • "Such a curtailment of production would eventually result in the demand exceeding the supply to Such an extent as to increase the prices much higher than they would be if that supply were continued." dlsinfectedt and one could not start across country Journey In his night shirt—not comfortably, anyway, bo we, the adjutant and I, asked the interpreter about getting some mag azines. Not content with that, the adjutant wrote a note to the "com mittee for helping prisoners" and gave It to the French cook to de liver. Nanl Opportunities For Young Men Pointed Out The need for machinists, firemen, engineers, boilermakers, slilpfitters and many others, in the Navy, is particularly great at this time, ac cording to a bulletin Issued from the local Naval recruiting station at 221 Market street One of the officials said this morning: "Now that the wartime hysteria has somewhat subsided, why not sit down and 'look the thing squarely in the face?'
