New York. N. Y.-It is conservatively
estimated that over three million people
annually in this country alone are TAX
Ing Nuxated Iron. Such astonishing re-
suits have been reported from its use
both by doctors and laymen, that a
number of physicians in various parts
of the country have been asked to ex-
plain why they prescribe 1t SO extern
sively, and why 1t apparently produces
so much better results than were OBJ
tanned from the old forms of inorganic
iron.
Extracts from some Of the letters re-
ceiyed are given below:
DR.. Ferdinand King, a New York
Physician and Medical Author, says
There can be no vigorous iron men
without iron. Pallor means anaemia.
Anaemia means iron deficiency. The
skin of anaemic men and women is
pale. The flesh flabby. The muscles
lack tone, the brain flags and the men,
DRY fails and they often become weak,
nervous, irritable, respondent and
melancholy. When the iron goes from
the blood of women, the roses go from
their cheeks.
In the most common foods of Amer
|
candies polished rice, white bread,
soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spa
ghetti, tapioca, Sage, farina, degermi-
mated corn meal, no longer is iron to
be found. Refining processes have re-
moved the iron of Mother Earth from
these impoverished foods, and silly
methods of home cookery, by throwing
down the waste-ppe 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 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. a Boston physician
who has studied widely both in this
! cal Institutions, says: las / have said
a hundred times over, organic iron
is the greatest of all strength builders.
If people would only take Nuxated
Iron when they feel weak or rundown
instead of dosing themselves with
habit forming drugs, Stimulants and
alcoholic beverages / am convinced
that in this way they could ward off
disease, preventing it 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 mol
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. l was
astonished to find him with the blood

An Effective Laxative
For Gro,Di11g Children
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
Highly Recommended as
a Family Remedy.

In children the slightest irregularity
of the bowels has a tendency to dis
turb the entire digestive system, and
unless promptly remedied invites seri-
Gus Illness. The experienced mother
knows that by training her children to
regularity in this respect, and when
occasion arises administering mild
laxative, she win have little need for
the doctors services.
Mrs. Leo Weigand, 1881 Central
Ave-, N. s., Pittsburg, Pa, whose two
boys, Frank and Joseph, are shown In
the Illustration writes that she has
found DIR. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin a
most effective laxative, not only for
the children but also for herself, and
that she will always keep 1t in the
house to use when needed. DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is combination
of simple laxative herbs with pepsin
that acts easily and naturally, with
out gripping or other pain or discom-
fort 1t is pleasant to the taste so that
children like it, and is equally effec-
tive on the strongest constitution.

QUIT POOLING WITH
RELIGION, ADVICE
OF BOISE PASTOR
Rev. H. J. Reynolds Says it
Is Opportunity of Every
one to Acquire Citizenship
in Heaven.

Rev. H. ]. Reynolds, pastor of the
Christian church, preached upon the
topic, "Fooling With Religion" His
sermon was one of the series by the
Boise ministers in the revival services
being conducted by them. He spoke in
part as follows:
The religion Of Jesus Is a life. It is
the great opportunity for everyone to
acquire citizenship in heaven. To
treat it lightly Is to trifle with ones
eternal destiny. The young man who
plays fast and loose with school days is
fooling with great privilege, a SOL
emn obligation to himself and his fell
lows. whatsoever lightly esteems the
school of Christ Is fooling with religion
Jesus declared himself to be the way
the truth and the life and specifically
affirmed that no one can come to the
Father except through the Son. Since
to be in Christ and to be in the church
are identical expressions, to try to APP
proach the Father while not a Chris
ton must result in failure. 1t is fool
ing with religion.
THE Israelites fooled with their re-
ligion and came to nought as a ma
ton. The five foolish virgins were
fooling with their religion when they
neglected to secure an adequate supply
of oil. The one talent man fooled with
his religion when he hid his talent
away and loafed on his job. The man
who is building his character upon the
sands of the opinions and doctrines OF
men is fooling with religion. Like the
man who built upon the sand, his house
will fall. His hope of glory is mirage
Neither circumcision nor uncircum-
cision availeth anything, but a new
creature is the demand of the religion
of Jesus. If any man be in Christ he is
a new creature. Old things are passed
away. All things are become new. The
man who aries to get right with God
by system of patchwork upon the
old garment of sin is fooling with re-
ligion. If your religion is merely g
patchwork, a section of your life, you
are merely fooling with religion.
He that believeth on the Son may II
Him have eternal life, but he thai
obeyeth not the Son shall not see lifA
(John iii: 36). Quit fooling with re.
ligion.'

GERMAN VESSELS TO
FILL GREAT NEED IN
THE AMERICAN NAVY

Washington, April Elm selling the
81 German ships in American ports, the
United States acquired vessels pur-
posely built for conversion into auxil-
larry cruisers.
It was learned at the department of
commerce today that most of the pas
senger ships are built as naval auxil-
iaries with gun platforms, reinforced
decks and other equipment for often
sive purposes.
Officials said seizure of these ships
has increased our transporting ability
tremendously. Fourteen of the larger
vessels seized will transport at one
time about 10000 troops. The American
merchant fleet available at present can
carry only about half that number.

Iron is absolutely necessary to en-

merely passes through you without do

to grow in soil deficient in iron. If
you are not strong or well you owe
1t to yourself to make the following
test: See how long you can work or
how far you can walk without becom-

tablets of ordinary nuXateds iron three
