New York. \. YZIt is conservative ly estimated that over three million people annually in this country alone are taking Nuxated Iron. Such aston ishing results have been reported from it's use both by doctors and layfnen. that q number of physicians in various parts of the country have been asked tensively. and why it apparently pro- duces so much better results than were obtained from the old forrns of tnor- ganic iron.
 Extracts from some of the letters re, ceived are given below:
 Dr. Ferdinand King, New York Physician and Medical Author says. There can be no vigorous iron men without iron. Palior means anaemia- skin of anaenic men and women is pale. The flesh fiabby. The muscles lack tone, the brain flags and the mem ory fails and they often become weak, ancholy- When the iron goes from the blood of women5 the roses go from their cheeks.
 In the most common foods of Amer ups, candies. polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits. maca- roni, sphagetti, tapfoca, sago, farfna, degerminated cornmeal, no longer Is iron to be found; Refining processes have removed the iron of Mother Earth from these impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste-pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked are responsible for another grave iron loss.
 Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must supply the iron de- ficiency in your food by using some form of organic iron just as you would use salt when your food has not enough salt.
 Dr. E. Sauer, Boston physician who has studied widely in both this coun- try and in great European Medi- cal Institutions says: "As have said a hundred times over, organic iron Is the greatest of all strength builders Iron when they feel weak or rundown, habit-forrning drugs, stimuiants and alcoholic beverages, am convinced that. in this way they could ward off disease, preventing 1t becoming or ganic in thousands of cases and there by the lives of thousands might be saved who now die every, year. from pneumonia, grippe, kidney, liver. heart trouble and other dangerous maladies. The real and true cause which started their diseases was nothing more nor less than a weakened condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood.
 Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance. was astonished to find him with a blood pressure of a boy of 20 and as full Of vigor, vim and vitality as a young
