 OVER BREAK WITH GERMANY
Is Advising the Public Not to Rely Too
 Much on Sympathy.

Paris, Feb. 6, 3.10 p. m-Although the press and public continue to rejoice over the action of the United States in terminating diplomatic relations with Germany, public consideration has turned to the realities of war Con fronted with the announced program of intensified submarine action on the part of Germany, the French press, all though realizing and approaching the great moral support resulting from the rupture of relations between the United States and Germany, is advising the public not to rely too much upon sympathy.
 In this connection, Senator Charles Humbert says: Instead of announcing that victory is certain and sleepily waiting, let us apply all our thoughts and all our energies to bringing our active forces to their maximum strength"

he was careworn and nearly all in now at 50, after taking Nuxated Iron. a miracle of vitality and his face beam1ng with the buoyancy of youth,
 Iron is absolutely necessary to en- able your blood to change food into living tissue. Without it. no matter now much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without oolng you any good, and as a conse- quence you become weak pale and SlckIy-Iooking, just like plant, trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron If you are not strong or well you owe it 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 f1ve-grain tablets of or dinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens Of nervous, rundown people who were ailing all the while double their strength and endurance and en- urely rid themselves of all 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 with out obtaining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of reduced iron iron acetate or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. The iron demanded by Mother Nature for the red coIoring matter in the blood of her children is alasi not that kind of iron. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated to do you any good, otherwise it may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete and prize-fighter has won the day simply because 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 in inglorious defeat simiy for the lack of iron"
 Dr. T. A Wallace a physician of many years experience in this country and who has been given many honorary titles in England said, T have given Nuxated Iron
