Sometimes the best kind Of girl

Such a girl was Grace WintOn. Sucn
a young man was Bill Blake. Not mucn
romantic about those names, you VIII
say, but-well, they had their little
romance.

school, and 1t continued after trace

his presence was no longer required

the bell; stacked all the students
hooks in one corner Of the Assembly

teacher so that he was obliged to spend
three days In bed and performed sun
dry other pranks not Included IN the
school curriculum.
Upon graduation Grace took up
teaching music and upon quitation
Bill took up playing pool. While he
was able. because Of his skill, to Keep
himself clothed and fed, his business
was not such as to warrant venture
in matrimony; and, moreover, Graces
parents objected strenuously to having
their daughter marry man who didn't
even pretend to work and was shift
less goodfor-nothing.
However, Grace managed to see Bill
occasionally and they continued to plan
what would happen when he "made
good" This couldn't last long because
Ellsworth was a small town and soon
Grace's friends began to sneer Mt her
for encouraging man who "d,oht
have lob and didn't want one"
Now Bill. despite his shortcomings
had a good deal of affection for Grace.
and when he heard some of this talk
he took an inventory of himself. look
ed the future squarely in the face. and
decided Grace was too good for him.
Shortly thereafter he boarded train
and vanished, leaving note In the
post office for Grace. The note said:

Savino Coal In Switzerland.

The use of hydro-electric energy for
heaters in Switzerland where coai Is
imported at a high price, is reported
to cost only half as much in some in-
duStrial establishments as heating
with live steam. Workrooms are kept
ut comfortable temperature, but for
rooms little used a moderate heating
is obtained from electric currents taken
during "off-peak" periods. In a tex

dried by air passing over steam pipes,

What Is NM1afed Iron il?
Physician ExplainsSsys Public Ought To Know What They
Are TaknG-Praccal Advice What To Do To
Build Up Your Strength, Power and Endurance and
Increase the Red Blood CorpuscIes

The fact that Nuxated Iron is today be-
ing used by over three million people an
nually and that so many physicians are pre-
scrbing il as tonic, strength and bleed
builder in weak. nervous, rundown condi-
tions has led to an investigation of its
merits by designated physicians and others
whose reports should be of great importance
to the public generally. Among these is the
statement made by DR.. James Francis Sui
Ivan, formerly physician of Bellevue Hos
qital Outdoor Dept.l. New York, and
Mestchester County Hospital, who says:
when one patient after another began ask
ing my opinion of Nuxated Iron, l resolved
to go thoroughly into the subject and find
out for myself whether or not it possessed
the real value claimed by its manufacturers
and attested to by so many prominent peo-
pie. This is exactly what I believe every
honest, conscientious physician should do
before prescribing or lending his endorse
ment to any product whatsoever. If an ar
ticle is worthless we practitioners ought to
be the first to know of it and if it is efl-
cacious we are in duty bound TO recommend
il for the welfare of our patients. A study
of the composition of the Nuxated Iron
formula so impressed me with the therapeu-
tic efficacy Of the product that. / imme-
diatcly tested It in a number of obstinate
cases So quickly did it increase the strength
energy and endurance of the patients to whom
il was administered that I became firmly con-
WINGED of its remarkable value as a tonic

myself with excellent results There are
thousands of delicate, nervous, rundown
tolks who need just such a preparation as
this but do not know what to take. There
fore have urgently suggested the wide
spread publication of the sworn statement
of the composition Of its formula so that
The public may know what they are taking.
This complete formula is now to be found
in newspapers throughout the country. 1t
IS composed principally of organic iron in
the form of iron peptonate of a special spe-
cihc standard and glycerophsophates which IS
one of the most costly tonic ingredients
known. To the credit of the manufacture
ers it may be said that they use the most
expensive form of iron peptonate, whereas
by employing other mak5 they could have
put the same quantity of actual iron in the
tablets at less than one-fourth the cost and
by using metallic iron they could have re-
duced the cost to less than one-twelfth, but
by thus cheapen:ng the product they would
undoubtedly have impaired its therapeutic
efficacy. In my opinion a careful examina-
ton of this formula by any physician or
pharmacist should convince him that Nux-
ated Iron is to be placed among the very
highest class and most strictly ethical prep
arations known to medical science. 1t ex-
