duties because OF their weakened, run

20 the public generally TO read the
opinion OF such a medical authority as
Or. Kenneth X. MacAlplne. prominent
New York surgeon, member OF the New

years Adjunct Professor Of the New

Hospital. who tells below how by In

healthier and more successful in the
home, social and business life.
Dr. MacAlpin. says; 'In my opinion,
who suffer from Nerves can improve
their health strength vitality and general
appearance by getting more Iron In their
blood is rich in strength giving iron. they
are the beautiful, healthy, rosy-cheeked
ones, radiant with life, vim and energy

go. Yet despite all that has been said and
written by physicians about the alarming
iron deficiency In the blood OF the average
American woman or today, there are still
thousands who need something 70 increase
their red blood corpuscles and build up
their strength and endurance, and are either
careless of their condition or do not know
what to take. In my opinion there is
nothing better than organic iron-Nuxated
Iron-to help make healthy full. blooded,
beautiful women. By enriching the blood
and in creating its oxygen carrying power
Nuxated Iron will often transform the
aabby flesh, toneles tissues, and pallid

TRIAL SECOND DAY

Waukesha. Wis, May 14.-Pale of
face, but apparently with confidence
mistaken. Miss Grace Lusk today
faced the second session Of her trial
for the Staying of Mrs. Mary New

Sitting in the crowded sunny
court room, scarcely 20 feet part,

been called as a witness for the de-
Tense. the two living members OF
the triangle which resulted in the
death of Mrs. Roberts when she re
fused to give up her husband. 81
lentlv watched the efforts to COM
pIete the jury.
Twenty prospective jurors. most
w farmers of advanced years. oc-
cupied the jury box. Seven of these
had been tentatively accepted by
both sides.
Questions hurled at the jurors by
attorneys for the defense indicated
that the plea of insanity would be
the basis of the battle to save Miss
Lusk. To oppose this the state is
depending on the testimony of DR..
r. E. Davies. one of the first per
sons to visit the scene Of the trag-
edv after the shooting on June Il,
1917. DR.. Davies is said to have
copied an alleged confession dictat-
ed by Miss Lusk after she shot her
self in an attempt to end her own
life.
