"There can be no strong, healthy
beautiful, rosy-cheeked women With-
out iron" says DIR. Ferdinand hins;
:, New York Physician and MedicaI
Author. "In my recent talks to phy-
eicions on the grave and serious con-
sequences of iron deficiency IN the
blood of American women L nave
strongly emphasized the fact that doc
tors should prescribe more organic
iron-nuxated iron-for their nervous,
rundown, weak. haggard- docking wo-
men patients. Pallor means anaemia.
THE skin of an anaemic woman IN
pale, the flesh flabby. The muscles
inck tone, the brain fags, and the
memory fails, and often they become
weak. nervous, irritable, despondent
and melancholy. When the iron goes
from the blood of women the roses
go from their cheeks.
America, the starches, sugars, table
syrups, candies. polished rice, white
bread. soda crackers, biscuits, maca-
roni, spaghetti, tapioea, sago. farina,
degerminated cornmeal, 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 are responsible Tor another
grave iron loss. Therefore, if you
wish to preserve your youthful vim
and vigor to a ripe old age you must
supply the iron deficiency in your food
ty using some form of organic iron,
lust as you would use salt when your
food has not enough salt"
DR.. Schuyler c. Jaques, Visiting
surgeon of st. Elizabeth's Hospital,
New York City. said: Il have never
hcfore given out any medical infor-
nation or advice for publication as
ordinarily do not believe in il. But so
many American women suffer from
ron deficiency with its attendant ills
physical weakness, nervous irrita-
iiity. melancholy, indigestion. flabby,
agging muscles. etc, etc, and in con-
eouence of their weakened. run

on the Coal Order at a
Special Session Tomorrow

Action on the fuel administration
order to close schools for ten con-
secutiVe Mondays beginning next
week, will be taken tomorrow aft
ernoon at the regular meeting of the
city school board. Officials to-day de-
clined to make any definte statement
but said that they will cooperate

carload lots last September and has
been delivered.
Cooperation of all county schools

Every Day of Idleness

Philadelphia, Jan. 17.-Industrial
and labor leaders in Philadelphia,
although regarding Fuel Adminis-
traitor Garfeld's order halting busi-
ness activity as extremely drastic,
expressed their willingness to-day
cooperate in every way possible,
Most of them said the order would
mean the loss of thousands of dol
lars; that some working forces might
be disorganized and that some un-
rest among workingmen might re-
suit, but that the main considera-
ton was to win the war, mo mat
ter what the cost"
Alba b. Johnson, president of the
Baldwin Locomotive Works. said
that whatever is done, we will take
our medicine" He added that the
closing of the Baldwin plant would
mean the loss of seventeen locomo-
tives for each day of idleness.
1t is estimated that 10000 indus
trial establishments and 100000
workmen in Philadelphia will be af-
fected by the order with a wage
loss of $1,00O,000.

of metallic iron which frequently do
more harm than good.
Notwithstanding all that has been
said and written on this subject by

suppose, because it costs a few cents
less | strongly advise readers in all
cases, to get physicians prescription
for organic iron-NuXated Iron-or if
you don't want to go to this trouble
then purchase only Nuxated Iron in
its original packages and see that this

that such products are an entirely

NOTE-Nuxated Iron, which is pre-
scribed and recommended above by
physicians in such great variety of
cases, is not q patent medicine nor
known to druggists and whose iron
constituents are widely prescribed by
eminent physicians both in Europe
and America. Unlike the older inor-
Sanic iron products, it is easily as
simulated, does not injure the teeth,
make them black. nor upset the stom-
ach: on the contrary, 1T is a most po-
tent remedy in nearly all forms of in
digestion as well as for nervous, run
down conditions. The manufacturers
have such great confidence in nuxated
iron, that they offer to forfeit $1,000
to any charitable institution IL they
cannot take any man or woman under
60 who lacks iron, and increase their
strength 100 per cent. or over in fourN
weeks time, provided they have MOI
serious organic trouble. They also
offer to refund your money If IL does
not at least double your strength and
endurance in ten days time. It is
disposed in this city by all good drug

Many Employers Affected
in Pennsylvania, Declares
Manufacturers Head

Philadelphia, Jan. 17.-Harry J.
Shoemaker, secretary of the Penn
sYlvania Manufacturers Association,
said Doctor Garfield's order would
affect the $500 employers who are
members of the association. These
manufacturers, who control the ma
jority of the greatest industrial es-
tahlishments in the state, employ
about 100000 persons.
Mr.. Shoemaker said there are
about 10000 manufacturing plants
throughout Pennsylvania. The num-
Der OF employees in all the industrial
plants in the state probably would
total about 100000.
He said the order may seriously
affect the business of many en-
ployers. A large number of the
members of the association are do
ing work for the government, either
directly or indirectly.

BAR GRATING PRESENTS

Boston.-Boot and shoe workers are
attempting to stop the practice of en-
ployes making presents to foremen
and superintendent. In some local
tiles this practice has become so
general that the foreman or fore
woman expect a substantial present
two or three times year. In the
Brockton district practically every
local of boot and shoe workers pro-
hibits this graft by fning members
who contribute.
"Where this system has been de-
veloped to its highest extent" says
the Boot and Shoe Journal, "there are
always some few favored employees
whose spontaneous CD action is man
ifested so frequently in circulating
subscription papers for making pres
ents to the boss that it became mon
Otonous.
"Let it be understood that there is
nothing voluntary about it. tits COM
pulsory and barefaced to the extent
that the subscription list is handed to
the dearly beloved with the present
so that if any of the work people
have not subscribed they are, Of
course, prescribed as not being friend

MOONEY CASE APPEALED

Washington. - The United States
spreme court is asked to review the
Mooney case.
The petition of Moneys attorneys
is based upon the broad ground that
their client has been denied "due pro-
cess Of law" guaranteed under the
constitution.
In the application which outlines
the entire history of the case, it is
contended that Gin the procurement
of a judgment of conviction of felony
by the use of perjured testimony by
a public prosecutor whose relation
and duty toward the accused is judicial
in character, there has been COM
mitted denial to the accused Of the
right to be tried with due process of
law and that the accused has been
denied the equal protection of the
courts"
The California courts, the applica-
tion declares, did not consider the
constitutional plea made by Mooney,
and therefore the supreme court is
asked to decide the question by re-
viewing the proceedings.

HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS

Washington.-Some get-rich- quick
concerns are endeavoring to persuade
patriotic Liberty bond holders, whom
they know will not sell outright their
Liberty bonds, to turn over their
Liberty bonds to these companies as
security for a loan and with the
money thus borrowed purchase stock
in their companies.
A Liberty loan bond is the safest
investment in the world, and a pru-
dent man will very carefully investi-
gate any effort to induce him to ex-
change it for a less safe investment
This lending one money on Liberty
bonds as security to purchase stock
in the lenders company is in many
cases only a thinly disguised method
of exchanging stock of doubtful value
for Liberty bonds of unquestioned
value.
1t is good business and it is patri-
otism to hold your Liberty bonds.

CAN'T BUILD MEMORIAL

Washington. - The war industries
board has vetoed a plan to build a
temporary memorial in Chicago in
honor of deceased soldiers. The board
says:
"If we could put the question
squarely up to those heroes who have
passed beyond do we not know that
their answer would be to use every
available dollar to speed up war pro-
duction, which we must have for an
irresistible continuous drive, rather
than turn aside now to do them honor
even for moment when the war has
not yet been won?
"And if We were to put this Ques-
tion squarely up to our men now
fighting in France, would they not
say, GIVE us first abundance of mu-
nitions and supplies that we may
sweep the enemy beyond the Rhine
and early lay the foundation for
lasting peace, the most imposing
monument that can now or ever be
erected?"

MINERS WIN INCREASE

Observation-Disclosures anthracite
mine workers have won their fight
for wage increases. A conference Of
national labor adjusting agencies has
ordered general advances ranging
from AZ cents an hour for outside
mine laborers to approximately $3.50
a day for contract miners.
Last August the United Mine Work
ers appealed to Fuel Administrator
Garfield for increases in both the
hard and soft coal fields. The union
lists showed that large numbers of
anthracite miners were leaving this
industry because of rates which
ranged as low as $2.77 day for thou
sands of miners while the average
rate for skilled men was $3.50 day.
The fuel administrator refused to
favor increases and notified the
miners that if they secured a new
agreement with their employers he
would veto it.
The miners were handicapped by
sentiment created through newspapers
that they are making fabulous wages,
and that they lay off about every
other week to visit NewYork and in
dulge in joy rides. In their reply to
Mr.. Garfield they stated that "again
and again we will come to you in be-
half of the mine workers of the
United States until we hope you will
concede the mine workers everywhere
the increase in wages for which they
are asking"
While the miners persistence was
successful in the case Of the an
thracite fields, they have temporarily
lost their fight for the soft coal
diggers.
In making the award the conference
called the fuel administrators atten-
tion to the necessity for a survey Of
the mining industry, which will in
clude comparative earnings, labor
turnover, employment and output.
This action was urged by the mine
workers and the operators.
