plunge Donald sought a marriage li-

bile and went upon a sightseeing tour.
Meantime the children had been miss

for true beauty comes from the
blood and strong, steady nerves"
Rich, red blood the fountain of life
and youth, shows itself in clear rosy
skin, solid aesh, fine form and keen
bright mind. Red blooded women,
with strong nervous vitality, are
sought after by men; they are the
hope and leaders Of the world
American women lead the world
in health. beauty and intelligence, and
their number is increasing. They
have learned the value OF Iron and
Phosphates in keeping them in per
feet condition
The number of weak, pale, tagged
out, run down and nervous women is
bound TO decrease rapidly, once the
power of Phosphated Iron becomes
more generally known" said lead
ing doctor There is not a reason
in the world why women should not
be strong, happy and JOY to look
upon when the remedy is at hand

wonders with my patients. 1t has re

SUMAS Is STILL WITHOUT
LIGHTS IN HOMES AND STREETS

Sumas is still without electric light
in the homes and on the city streets.
The Sumas-Advocate of last Fri
day had the following account of the
difficulties of the city:
1.-The greatest inconvenience to
Sumas is the absence of electric light
and power service. and 1t is probable
that it will be a week or ten days be-
fore the Cay has even a partial SER
vice.
Although strenuous efforts are
being put forth by the city, the Sum-
as Electric Light Company, and the
B. c. Electric, from which the city
gets its power, it will require at least
a month before anything like a norm
al service can be reached. The Sum
as Electric Company is directing its
efforts towards restoring it's power
line first. and it is hoped that before
many more days elapse that part of
it's system will be intact again. The
municipal system was hit much hard
er than the Sumas Electric Company
and a longer time will be required
to restore its wires and poles. We
need not expect a street light service
under two weeks, and possibly long
er than that.
The city is employing every avail
able man on the municipal light and
power system, and is making rapid
Roadway in repair work. Some think
that by the first of next week, it will
have progressed so far that at least
the business portion of town will have
electric lights again
