the fact that until last year 100 Ameri-

literature which the European travel

placed at our disposal so whetted our
appetite for a view OF the lakes of
ireland and Scotland, of the castles on
the Rhine and Danube, OF the scenes
made famous by Shakespeare, Dickens,
Victor Hugo and Goethe that we turn

superb, and lakes more radiant than
any to be seen in the lands across the

America was born into the family Of

But in that architecture which is

NEW YORK, n. Y.-MOst people fool-

renowned health and strength from some
stimulating medicine, secret nOstrum or
narcotic drug, said DR.. Sauer, a well known
Specialist who has studied widely both in
this country and Europe, when, as mat
ter Of fact, real and true strength can only
come from the food you eat. But people
often fail to get the strength out Of their
food because they haven't enough iron IN

into living matter. From their weakened,
nervous condition they know something
is wrong but they can't tell what so they

you owe 1t to yourself to make the follow

The premier achievement Of the
Democratic administration has loudly
been proclaimed to have been the
federal reserve act. On every oc-
casIon we are told by the party
shoutors that it is tho greatest piece
OF constructive legislation that ever
has been passed by any Congress-
The Intelligencer has pointed out be-
The Telegram has pointed out be-
fore that this self-praise was based
on an untried scheme; that the act
was open to many objections; that
its faulty construction was OF Dem
ocratic origin, ind that whatever
mart 1t possessed was garbled from
an old Republican measure the Al
drich currency law. Of course the
Democrats go on sounding its praise
and proclaimlng its wonders. One
foolish break was that 1t saved the
country from a disastrous panic at
the outbreak Of the European war,
when in fact the panic was ayerted
by the application Of the Aldrich
currency act. The federal reserve
act was not in operation at that
time.
Now comes a definite expression Of
the supposed value Of the reserve
act, an expression Of the qualified
judgment Of the country in a pamDh-
let just issued by the Guaranty
Trust Company, OF New York, which

Ing any benefit. But don't take the old
forms OF reduced iron, iron acetate or tine
ture OF Iron simply to save few cents.
You must take iron in a form that can be
easily absorbed and asSimilated like nux-
ated Iron II you want 1t to do any good,
otherwise 1t may prove worse than USE
less. Many an athlete or prize-h ghter has
won the day simply because he knew the
secret Of great strength and endurance and
filled his blood with iron before he went
into the ARRAY, while many another has
gone down to inElorlouS defeat simply fer
the lack Of iron.
NOTE-Nuxated Iron recommended

well known to druggists and whose iron

nent physicians everywhere. Unlike the
older inorganic Iron products, 1t is easily
assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make
them black, nor upset the stomach; on the
contrary, 1t Is a most potent remedy, In
nearly all forms Of indigestion, as well as
for nervous, rundown conditions. The

does not constitute a defense or an
explanation; it will not be called
vindication. But Frank S. Engle, Of
Chicago, secretary Of the Frisco Sal
vador Ranching properties, refugee
from Mexico who escaped to this
country on the Dixie, has brought
back bit Of news that would furnish
suggestion for an appropriate re-
jOinder to this interrogatory. Mr..
Engle is quoted as saying:

look to the British to protect our inter
ests in Tampico."

Mr.. Root, or Colonel Roosevelt, or
any other gentleman opposed to Mr..
Wilson, on being asked what he would
do that Mr.. Wilson has not done, were

to reply in words something like the
subjoined, his utterance would not
provoke in this country public dis
favor:

fairs OF the United States that every
American citizen in Mexico and every
where else would look to the Ameri-
can government and to no other gov
eminent for protection, and would
look with confidence; and should see
to it that that confidence was not dis
appointed"
It is perhaps, not worth while to
answer this frequently heard inquiry;
but IL it we're worth while, certainly
such a declaration as that outlined
above would be entirely suitable and
in order.

While there were upwards Of 25'-

been taken on a financial question.

naturally has been great difference OF
opinion among tho banks OF the
country concerning the federal re-

known that this was the case and
that there was considerable opposi-
ton to some features Of the act on
the part OF bankers, both within and
without the system, but it has re-
NAMED for this canvass to bring out
the facts in clear and unmistakabIe
manner. 1t Is impressive to note
that replies unfavorable to the sys-
TEN outnumbered those that express
ed favorable pinion. the analysis OF
the vote reveals that of the 5,344 re-
plies 2,709 were from national or
member banks, and 2,635 state banks
and trust companies. Out Of the to-
tai replies, 1,773 were unfavorable;
1,760 were generally" favorable,
and 1881 were non-committal.
Banks from all over the country re-
sponded, and it is safe to assume
that the summary of the replies in
dictates pretty accurately the general
sentiment among all the banks in
the United States regarding this new
law.
