Ter said the program of construction
was a very big one and could be car

steamers were wanted most at the
present time but they must be some-
thing more than the ordinary tramp
and exceed in speed the underwater
speed of the submarine. About one
half of all the merchant ships of the
United Kingdom of over $500 tons
gross were engaged for the army and
navy, the colonies and the entente al

Advises Gretna Farmers

"It is very likely that the great
Pennsylvania mobilization and train
ing camp will be at Mt. Gretna and
l would urge all farmers in surround
ing counties to bend their utmost eff
forts to the greatest possible increase
in all food supplies. We must have
our greatest food production near
these State training camps so that
food will be available in case our
railroad facilities are hampered in
any way.
Every organization in the State
of Pennsylvania should take up the
call that is now being put out by
our country for greater agricultural
activity. Local warehouses, local
drying and canning establishments
can help in this hour of need and
immediate action is imperative. Penn
sylvania in an industrial way will
be a big factor in the war and Penn
sylvania in an agricultural way can
be just as big a factor"

Iron is absolutely necessary to
enable your blood to change food into
living tissue. Without it, no matter how
much or what you eat, your food merely
passes through you without doing you
any good. You don't get the strength
out of 1t, and as a consequence you be-
come. weak. pale and sckly looking,
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 five grain
tablets of Ordinary Nuxated Iron three
times per day after meals for two weeks
then test your strength again and see
how much you have gained. 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 dyspep-

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 obtaining any bene-
fit. But don't take the old forms of re-
duced iron, iron acetate. or tincture of
iron simply to save q 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 1t may
prove worse than useless. l have
used Nuxated Iron widely in my
own practice in most severe aggra-
waited conditions with unfailing results,
have induced many other physicians
to give it a trial, all of whom have
given me most surprising reports in re-

DIR. Schuyler C. Jacques, Visiting Sur
geon of st. Elizabeth's Hospital. New
York City, said, 81 have never before
given out any medical information or
advice for publication as l ordinarily
do not believe in it. But so many
American women suffer from iron de-
flciency with its attendant ills-physical
weakness, nervous irritability, melan-
choly, indigestion, flabby, sagging
muscles, etc, etc., and in consequence
of their weakened rundown condition
they are so liable to contract serious
and even fatal diseases that 1 deem il
my duty to advise such to take Nuxated
Iron. 1 have taken it myself and given
it to my patients with most surprising
and satisfactory results. And those
who wish quickly to increase their
strength. power and endurance will find
it a most remarkable and wonderfully
effective remedy"

F. KING, NJ. D

"There can be no healthy, beautiful,

DIR. Ferdinand King, a New York Ply
sician and Medical Author. I'm my re-
cent talks to physicians on the grave
and serious consequences of iron de-
fciency in the blood of American wom-
en- l have strongly emphasized the fact
that doctors should prescribe more or
ganic iron-nuXated iron-for their
nervous, rundown, weak. haggard-
looking women patients. Pallor means
anaemia. The skin of the anaemic wom-
an is pale, the flesh fiabby. The mus
memory fails, and often they become
weak, nervous, irritable, respondent
and melancholy. When the iron goes
from the blood of women, the roses go
from their checks.

cause which started their disease was
nothing more nor less than a weakened
condition brought on by lack of iron in the
blood
ION account of the peculiar nature ot
woman, and the great drain placed upon
her system at certain periods, she requires
iron much more than man to help make ur
for the loss.

Until final determination of the gov

has been no bad effect on the gaiety
of the city, nor of the prosperous
business conditions, and buyers from
all over the country at present mere
numbering about 100000, continue
to purchase as actively as though
nothing has happened.
The present theatrical season is
the best New York has experienced in
years, and one has great difficulty liz

spectators who ask big prices. IN

for, The Country Girl" the leadinG

SO to $40 each for $3.50 box office

$500. This is surely outrageous,
but the New York public seems to
stand for it. There are at least fif-
ty theatre specializing agencies In
the city, making their entire income
from advance prices on regular
theatre seats. These spectators
have their own offices in the leading
hotels and their main offices in eX-
pensive rooms on Broadway. Strange
though as it may seem, this business
is regarded as legitimate. have
called on our friends at the theatri-
cal booking offices and hope to Sc
cure some of the shows at our theatre

One of the new methods of amuse-

not be necessary in DEBORAH at thir-

as glass. The temperature of the
building is comfortable They wear
skating suits and dresses and many
men skate without even hats on.
The ring accommodates about 800
people and is extensively patronized
morning, afternoon and evening.
The admission is rs cents for each
session.. The skaters enjoy music of
an orchestra, ana in the balcony

of all kinds are served. 1t is a nice
way of enjoying an evening, among
