RED BLOODED
PEOPLE LIVE
THE_LON9EST
Red blooded people retain their youth
and vigor until late in life because red
blood ages slowly.
A child with impure blood seems
old, while an old man with pure red
ironized blood seems young.
Impure blood clogs the system with
waste matters, rapidly ageing body,
mind and spirit.
Pure blood is red blood, rich in Iron
and Phosphates with power to rid itself
of waste matter and able to carry life
giving oxygen to every cell and nerve.
It makes both young and old bright,
happy, keen, and interested in life. This
is the blood you need, every day of your
life, the rich red blood made by pure
food, fresh air, restful sleep and "Phos
tihated Iron the red blood and nerve
builder".
rhosphated Iron enriches your blood
and nerves, putting them in' shape for
work. Improves your color, increases
your appetite and gives you strength,
vigor and power to enjoy both work
and pleasure, makes you feel like do
ing things once more.
Phosphated Iron is prescribed bv lead
ing doctors for all who are worn out,
run down, nervous, weak and thin
Wooded people In all walks of life, they
have learned to depend on it for honest
results.
Special Notice—To Insure physicians
end their patients receiving the genu
ine Phosphated Iron, we have put. in
capsules only, so do not allow dealers
to substitute pills or tablets, insist pn
the genuine, in capsules only.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy—lf You Know Dr.
Edwards' Olive Tablets
The secret of keeping young is to feel
young—to do this you must watch your
liverand bowels—there'snoneedof hav
ing a sallow complexion dark rings
under your eyes pimples—a bilious
look in your face—dull eyes with no
sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety
pier cent of all sickness comes from in-,
active bowels and liver. •
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action yet always eftective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en
joyed byeveryone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.
You will know Dr. Edwards' Olive
Tablets by their olive color. 10c and
25c per box. All druggists.

The prospective clerk, John P.

overseas veteran, is poorer by s3l
in cash, a gold watch, silk shirts,
shoes and other articles of wear to

Monroe went to the office of the

person who might fill his needs.
Weise. the secretary's nephew, who
recently returned home after serv

He was promised a salary of SIOO a
month if he qualified.
The two men came to this city
and registered at a local hotel.
Monroe gave Weise a note, ad
dressed to L)r. Holmes, of Steelton,
and requested Weise to go there for
his physical examination. Inform
ing the Lancaster youth that there
woud be many "roughnecks" in the
Steelton physician's office, Monroe
persuaded Weise to leave his
money, watch, silk shirts, shoes and

searching for several hours for the
physician and being unable to lo

at the Bethlehem Steel Company's
offices, he returned to the hotel,
from which Monroe had disap
peared with Weise's effects.
The matter was reported to the
police, but thus far they have been
unable to find any traces of the
missing man.

Against Flying Circus
By /Issociated Press.
Washington, April 17.—Revision of
some features of the Victory Liber
ty Loan campaign is under consider
ation as a result of complaints against
activities on Sunday and holy days
of the church calendar.
Early today there came a protest
to Secretary Glass from Philadelphia
churches against the showing cf
Liberty Loan motion pictures in
theaters on Sunday. An hour later
a delegation of Washington minist
ers called on Mr. Glass to urge that
Sunday flying circuses scheduled in
various parts of the country be
abandoned.
Sunday engagements of the flying
circuses will be abandoned, Mr. Glass
said. The question of showing mov
ing pictures on Sunday for the loan
is likely to be left to ihe local cam
paign committees. During the last
loan many cities held intensive house
to house canvasses on Sunday after
noon and evening to raise tiieir quo
tas, with the active co-operation of
churches.
"We must not forget," said Mr.
Glass, in discussing the subject, "that
the raising of the Liberty Loan is
a pretty holy matter itself."
