HEAR AMERICANS WILL AID
Venice Has Rumors U. S. Troops Will
Help Save CITY

Venice, Dec. 3.-Growing confidence
of the populace here has been further
increased by rumors that Americans
are cooperating to save the city.
The general view is that the city
is not in any immediate danger. The
city continues calm, although cannon
aiding is heard day and night as the
italian war ships and British monitors
lombard the enemy at the mouth of
the Piave river.
The rumor of American cooperation
was not based upon reliable infCrma-
ton. and probably grew out of the re-
cent trip of inspection made by Amer
lean officers. The proprietor of one
of the principal hotels here told the
pondent that the rumor that
Americans were coming to Venice was
generally credited among the people.

The present war is commonly taker
to be a war of materiel. Not only
is it a struggle between the resources
aof destruction on the actual front
but it is also competition in pro
duction behind the lines. And today
behind the lines" means the whole
of the territory of the nations inyolv-
ed. 1t is, of course, abundantly evil
dent that, great as is the develop
ment of the enginery of war the con-
flict now raging, the moral develop
ment has been no less great: that the
effort of the soul and the spirit OF
sacrifice have taken on an extension
never before realized. Externally,
however, it is the material aspect OF
things that fixes our attention and
lcrystalizes our energies. From the
day that the forts of Liege, Namur, and
Antwerp shivered like glass under the
blows of the German artillery, the
worlds thoughts have drawn to ma
terial means of destruction and to
those that make destruction possible
Of these means, three stand out ayi-
alton, artillery, and the machine gun
A fourth should be added barbed-
wire entanglements.
Not one of these four elements is
new; of aviation, indeed, it may be
said that it was novel, but only be-
cause the War of 1914 was the first
to force its development on large
scale. Wire as an obstacle is as OLD
our Civil War; the idea of machine
guns is older still. AS for artillery
the worlds navies had long been
ready for the business of perforating
the sides of an enemy's battleshiI
and the problem certainly would be
no more difficult ashore against con.
crete and steel forts if one could only
get up the guns. Under this head the

their adversaries. Whether they were
to attack the French forts of the Bel
gian, they would need heavy guns OF
large caliber to demolish these forts
and the question for them was merely
one of transport This was not an in
soluble problem if the roads and
bridges could carry the weights ant
ii means could be devised to pull
them; in the excellence of roads il

roads, and in mechanical traction

less, even though, to all outward ap-
pearance, physically unhurt. When
an enemy zone has been reduced to
this state, the infantry, as already
stated, advances, and if It can pc
held, the guns themselves are pushed
forward so as to take under fire fresh
zones hitherto beyond range. But
this is necessarily laborious process;
much effort is needed to bring up
heavy q, 10, and 12-inch calibers
with their attendant supplies of ann
munition Moreover, the guns must be
freshly oriented with respect to the
new targets they are take up.
In such firing the target is gener-
ally invisible from the gun. Hence
this fire is indirect; indeed, the case
i'll which the gunner can see his tar
get and lay his piece directly upon it
is exceptional, even with field artil-
lery In principles direct fire involves
nothing more than the solution of a
plane triange. Somebody obviously
must see the target and send data
to the battery; hence the T. o. B.
(target observer battery triangle.
The result is that when the line of
sight is laid on an aiming point, WIS.,
ible from the gun, the gun itself,
properly elevated, will be pointed at
the target. These high angles are
necessary to reach the rear of the
enemy; without them curtain fire
wuld impssibld Here, as indeed
in all other cases of artillery fire, re-
course is had, if possible, to aviatin.
If airplanes are available, the eyes
of the guns are up there in the air
somewhere. And, as everybody knows,
a distinct type Of airplane has been
developed under the pressure of mod
ern necessities-one whose business
it is to see and report on enemy po-
itions. From the data, Photographic
and other. supplied by these aerial
surveys, maps are made of the enemy's
gun emplacements, machine guns, po-
sitions, redoubts, roads, ammunition
dumps, and so on Fire against these
targets becomes possible when the
guns position with reference to them
is known, and the fire itself is direct
ly observed by artillery airplanes
which report whether a given shot is
over or short, right or left.
So dangerous has airplane obser-
walton become that all possible means
are taken to conceal or disguise a gun
or battery. This concealment called
camoufage, consists in painting the
gun in harlequin and natural colors,
in covering it with branches, shrubs,
paulins; doing anything, in short, to
make it melt into it's surroundings.
Even so, we are told that if a gun
detachment is satisfied that the dis
guise has been penetrated, it at once
seeks shelter, for it is certain that in
a very few minutes an enemy shell
will find the gun and put it out OF
commission. Hence the increasing i'm
portance of the mastery of the air
we must see the enemy ourselves, and
also we must keep him from seeing
US.
Not only are large calibers, of
which perhaps the most famous are
the Krupp 42-centimeter and the Aus
trian Skoda 305, used on the fronts
but the smaller field pieces also come
into play in both defense and attack
OF the smaller calibers the French
75-millimeter will remaiG forever

Ordinary Nuxated Iron Will Make De. iicate, Nervous, RundoWn People POO = Per Cent Stronger in Two Weeks
 Time in Many Cases.

NEW YORK, N. Y.,-Most people foolishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, se-
 cret nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr. Sauer. specialist who has studied
 widely both in this country and Flu : rope, when, as Q matter 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 their blood to enable it to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something is wrong, but they cont tell what, so they generally com meace doctoring for stomach liver or kidney trouble or symptoms of some other aifment caused by the lack of iron in the blood. This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffers untold agony. If you are not strong or we'll you owe 1t to yourself to make the following test. See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of ordinary 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. have seen dozens of nervous rundown peo- pie who were ailing all the while. double and even triple their strength and endurance and entirely get rid of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen

New methods of treating quicksl- yer ores are being undertaken by the California state mining bureau.
 The importance of this work, un- der way by Fletcher Hamilton, state mineralogist, is shown by the fact that no substitute for quicksilver in the manufacture of illuminate of mer- cury for detonating caps, has been discovered.
 During the present war, Germany has been depending on the Austrian mines for quicksilver. The alhes have the American and Spanish mines to draw upon.
 Regarding the present studies on quicksilver. it's ores and production Hamilton has this to say:
 For many years California has been, and still is. producing from 70 to 80 per cent of the quicksilver yield of the United States.
 This metal is absolutely essential from a military standpoint.
 In this connection, the investiga- tion of the possibilities of concen- trstion for quicksilver ores, whicl has been under way for the last tw years by an engineer of the state mining bureau staff is particularly opportune.
 Returns on the production of quick silver in California for the calendar year 1916 shows a considerable ln- crease, both in quantity and value over the previous year.

days time simply by taking iron in the proper forms, and this after they Had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of re- luced iron, iron acetate or tincture of iron simpy to save few cents. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated like
 nuxated iron if you want it to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete or prize | fighter has won the day simply be-
 cause he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray, while many another has gone down to inglorious defeat simply
 for the lack of iron.
 Note.-NuAated Iron recommended l above by Dr. Sauer, is one of the newer organic iron compounds. Un-
 like the older inorganic iron products, | it is easily assimilated, does not injure ] the teeth, make them black, nor upset l the stomach; on the contrary, it is a l most potent remedy, in nearly all forms of indigestion, as well as for nervous, rundown conditions.
