 In the most common foods of Amer ica, the starches, sugars, table syrups candies. polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti tapioca, sago farina. de- germinated corn meal, 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 is responsible for another grave iron loss.

 Then test your
 strength again and see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens Of nervous. run down people who were ailing all the while double their strength and endurance and entirely rid themselves of all symptoms of dys-
 pepsia, 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 without ob- taining 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 coloring matter in the blood of her children is alas. 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 sim ply 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 simply for lack of iron"

ESKIMO Is ACQUITTED
OF MURDER CHARGE

EDMONTON, Alta, Aug. H. (By
one of the two Es-
llimos from the Bloody Falls country,
on the shores of the Arctic ocean, on
trial here for murder in connection
with the death of two priests, Father
Rouivere and Father LerouX, was ac-
quilted today of the specific charge Of
numbering Father Rouviere. A con-
fession by Sinniasiak at a prelimin-
airy hearing Immediately after arrest
in which he said ne and Uulksull kill
ed the priests, was written into the
record. Counsel for the defense con-
tended that Sinniasiak committed the
act through fear of the priests, who
were armed with rifles and who had
hired the Eskimos to draw their sled
1t was, counsel declared, justifable
homicide.

Churn drills and blasting crews
have started their work Of making a
hole in the ground out of Sacramento
mountain, which frowns down upon the
Bisbee, Arizona, copper camp from
it's emnence in the Bisbee mountains.
The wrecking of mountain to OBJ
tain copper is one of the unique min
ing engineering projects of this dis
trict. Chuu drills have drilled the
mountain full of holes and these are
being filed with high explosives and
exploded to loosen the rock for the
giant steam shovels to scoop up and
load into cars. Thousands Of tons of
overburden will be removed before
the mineral deposit is encountered
The copper ore will then be removed
to the CruSher plant TO be erected near
the mountain and crushed ore concen-
trated and then smelted to render the
copper contained in the old, red noun
tain. When the project is completed,
the place where the Sacramento noun
tain now stands will be a hole in the
ground, the engineer says.

Of simplifying clothes production, 1t
consists of tunic, slightly military,
breeches resembling those worn by
the cavalry, puttees or stockings and

Many people, men and women
showed alarm over the suggested re
form and were promptly accused of
hiding bow legs, knock knees and alb
sent calves. The owners of shapely
underpinnings, especially the men, are
perfectly willing to have a showdown.
