But people often fail to get the strength out of their food because they haven't enough iron in their blood tQ enable it to change Food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something is wrong, but they can't tell what, so they generally com me1ce doctoring for stomach liver ol kidney trouble or symptoms of some other ailment 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 well. you owe it to yourself ta make the following test. See how long you Gan 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.

Insuring Our Fighting Men

Work on the plan of Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo for life and indemnity
insurance to the soldiers and sailors of
the United States is progressing. The
advisory committee of 10 prominent in
surance men and other committees and
the Secretary are working out the de-
tails and bill will ultimately be draft
ed and presented to Congress for ac-
ton. The report of the various COM
mittees and the Secretary's action
furnish tangible working basis for the
legislation.
The insuring of our soldiers and sail
ors will be only new application of, a
well-known principle. Employees in
surance, especially for those engaged
in hazardous employment, has long
been recognized as just and wise and
profitable policy in private business,
and has been successfully operated for
years. In fact through the United
States Employees Compensation Com
mission civilian employees of the Gov
ernment are now insured against ac-
cidents occurring in the course of their
employment.
The wisdom and Justice of a great
Government applying the principle to
its citizens who for their country s sake
engage in the eXtra-hazardous employ
ment of war are apparent 70 ALL, Our
soldiers and sailors in defense of their
country are daily hazarding their lives
and safety and they certainly deserve
| 1 tn md H.
ents deserve the same protection, that
employees and the United States gives
certain of its employees.
Secretary McAdoo before the con-
| ference of insurance men outlined his
views as follows:-"I seems to me
that we ought net, as we send our men
into this war, say to them that they
must be dependent upon future legis-
| lation for the granting Of compensations
which have heretofore, under our policy
taken the form of pensions. Our brave
men should not be left in uncertainty or
doubt as to what is going TO be done
| for them in case of either death or
total or partial disability. A man who
goes out to fight for the United States
is entitled to know in advance what a
| just Government is going TO do for
him."
One of the great uses of the proceeds
of the Liberty Loan Bond is to protect
our fighting men, 10 supply them with
everything that will make them power
full, effective and as safe as may be.
That those who meet with disability in
the course of their duty should be
given compensation and that the de-
pendents of those who die for their
country should be given compensation
is exactly in line with and really part
of this use Of the proceeds of the
Liberty Loan Bonds
