Astonishing Power of Iron
to Glue Strength to Broken
DolUn Nervous People

you can walk without becoming tired.
Next take two five-grain tablets Of or
binary nuxated iron three times per
day after meals for two weeks. Then
test your strength again and see for
yourself how much you have gained. l
have seen dozens of nervous, rundown
people who were ailing all the time
double and even triple their strength
and endurance and entirely get rid OF
their symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and
other troubles in from ten to fourteen
days time simply by taking iron in the
proper form, and this, after they had
in some cases been dOctOring for
months without obtaining any benefit.
You can talk as you please about all
the wonders wrought by new remedies,
but when you come down to hard facts
there is nothing like good old iron to
put color in your cheeks and good,
sound, healthy flesh on your bones. 1t
is also a great nerve and stomach
strengthened and the best blood builder
in the world. The only trouble was
that the old forms of inorganic iron,
like tincture of iron, iron acetate, etc.,
often ruined peoples teeth, upset their
stomachs and were not assimilated,
and for these reasons they frequently
did more harm than good. But with
the discovery of the newer forms OF
organic iron all this has been overcome.
Nuxated Iron, for example, is pleasant
to take, does not injure the teeth and Is
almost Immediately beneficial.
NOTE-The manufacturers Of Nuxated
Iron have such unbounded confidence In
it's potency that they authorize the an.
nouncement that they will forfeit 10000
to any Charitable Institution IL they can
not take any man or woman under sixty
who lacks iron and increase their strength
200 per cent or over in four weeks time.
provided they have no serious organic
trouble Also they will refund your money
in any case in which Nuxated Iron does
not at least double your strength in ten
days time. 1t is dispensed by most drug
gists If your druggist or general store
Is without supply, ask them to get 1t Tor

Physician Says Ordinary Nuxated Iron
Will Increase Strength of Delicate
Folk 200 Per Cent in Two
Weeks Time in Many
Instances.

NEW YORK, N. Yin a recent dis
course DR.. e. Sauer Specialist, of this
city, said: IF you were to make an
actual blood test on all people who are
ill you would probably be greatly as
tonished at the exceedingly large num-
Der who lack iron and who are ill for
no other reason than the lack of iron.
The moment iron is supplied all their
multitude of dangerous symptoms dis
appear. Without iron the blood at once
loses the power to change food into liv-
ing tissue, and therefore nothing you
eat does you any good; you don't get
the strength out of it. Your food mere
ly passes through your system like corn
through a mill with the rollers so wide
apart that the mill can't grind. AS a
result of this continuous blood and
nerve starvation, people become gen.
orally weakened, nervous and all run
down, and frequently develop all sorts
of conditions. One is too thin; another
is burdened with unhealthy fat some
are so weak they can hardly walk /;
some think they have dyspepsia, kidney
or liver trouble; some can't sleep at
night; others are sleepy and tired all
day; some fussy and irritable; some
skinny and bloodless, but all lack physi-
cal power q and endurance. In such
cases it is worse than foolishness to
take stimulating medicines or narcotic
drugs, which only whip up your tagging
vital powers for the moment. maybe at
the expense of your life later on. No
matter what anyone tells you, if you
are not strong and well you owe it to
yourself to make the following test

When we think or read of the vast

a similar warlike nature, but the Eng

Does not this suggest a possibility
that this item might advantageously

CHRISTIAN BROTHERS
COLLEGE IS BURNED

ST LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 5.-Fire today
destroyed the main building of the
Christian Brothers college here. The
institution, sustained by Catholic
agencies, was also a refuge for aged
members of the Order of Christian
Brothers, lay order of the Roman
church
Brothers Carmae, aged ninety-three,
who was hardly able to walk, and
Brother Clemens, a feeble old man of
seventy-two years, are both missing
and believed to have persisted in the
fire. One assistant nurse employed in
the building was seriously injured
when he leaped from an upper win
dow to escape cremation.
