Bolt Hurls Timber
Over Sleepers' Heads

Denver.-Lightning played pranks
around the gable of the home of
George Miller and his daughter. Mrs.
Jessie Harper, a widow, living a mile
west of Denver in Wadsworth ave-
nue., south of Arvada. the other
night.
Mrs. Harper and her son, George
Harper, years old, occupied an up
stairs room and all had gone to bed,
when lightning struck the gable,
tearing a big gap in it, twisting a
large timber from a window and
hurting it across the room in which
the woman and her son were asleep,
and twenty feet away making two
big holes in the ceiling.
Mrs. Harper was unhurt, but her
son was unconscious and dead-she
thought. She tried to arouse him,
but in vain. Then she called her
father. He shook the boy and sud
denly he came to life again as from
a deep sleep.

Red Blooded
People Live
The Longest

Red-blooded people retain their
youth and vigor until late in life
becau-e red blood ages slowly.
A child with impure blood seems
old. while an old man with pure red
ironized blood seems young.
Impure blood clogs the system
with waste matters, rapidly aging
body, mind and spirit.
Pure blood is red blood, rich in
Iron and phosphates with power to
rid itself of waste matter and able
cell and nerve. 1t makes both
young and old, bright, happy, keen
and Interested in life. This is the
blood you need, every day of your
life, the rich red blood made by
pure food, fresh air, restful sleep
and "Phosphated Iron the red blood
and nerve builder"
Phosphated Iron enriches your
blood and nerves. putting them in
shape for work. Improves your COL
or, increases your appetite and gives
you strength, vigor and power to
enjoy both work and pleasure,
makes you feel like doing things
once more.
Phosphate Iron Is prescribed by
leading doctors for all who are worn
out, run down, nervous, weak and
thin .blooded people in all walks of
life they have learned to depend on
IL for honest results.
Special Notice-To insure physi-
clans and their patients receiving
the genuine Phosphated Iron, we
have put in capsules only, so do not
allow dealers to substitute pill or

MURDOCH HELPS
REGISTRANTS
Encourages Plan Whereby
Men Can Register in Big
Industrial Establishments

Major W. G. Murdock. the state
draft executive to-day urged that
large employers of labor arrange
with local draft boards for registra-
ton of their men with the least pos
sihle disturbance of operations espe-
cially in plants which are engaged
on munitions. In a number of in
stances plans have been made where
by men in iron and steel works will
register in the plants and the cards
forwarded to the proper local boards.
The greatest care should be taken
to see that the cards go to the homo
districts of the registrants." said he.
Reports coming here indicate that
all over the state local boards have
prepared for the registration and urg-
ing that registrants get ready their
answers.
To-day the last of the special trains
for the five camps receiving men
under the first September calls will
be closed.
The Philadelphia Record and North
American have the dismissal of Board
No. 2 as something needed in the
draft system, while The Philadelphia
Press says: The firing" of Board
No. is due directly to the investiga-
ton of its activities by Colonel ]. s.
Smith. personal representative
of General Crowder, Provost Marshal
Major w. G. Murdock, OF Harrisburg.
State Draft Administrator, is under
stood to have asked Governor Brum-
baugh two months ago to dismiss the
appeal board. but the Governor who
was responsible for the appointment
of the board members failed to take
any action. Carelessness, favoritism
and pull" formed the basis of the
charges against the appeal board.
John P. Dwyer secretary of Locol
Board No. 80, Overlook. was the first
to criticise its activities. He made
number of specific charges. among
them that the board delayed action
on appeals from his local board so
that many registrants were sent to
camp months after their proper time"
