TO REINSTATE TEACHERS WHO
 HAVE MARRIED

Repeal the married teacher regu- lation," says Dr. P. P. Claxton, U. S.. Commissioner of Education.
 Reports from some cities indicated that a few school boards have not yet taken action to abolish the rule bar ring married women from teaching This rule never did have much to rec ommend it, and the war has made it impossible of enforcement. Every woman who is a good teacher is need ed, and marriage is no bar"
 For the information of school boards that may not have seen Com missioner Claxton's statement of Mar 8, 1918 appealing to married teach CTS to return to schools, the Bureau is asking that the following paragraph be reprinted: There are in the coun- try scores of thousands of persons mostly women, of good scholarship and professional training, who haG successful experience as teachers but who have retired from active service Many of these might render valuable service again in the school. As z | means of relief in the present crisis I recommend that they be called agair | into active service and that laws, or dinances, and regulations of schoo boards prohibiting married wome1 from teaching in the public schools bt suspended or repealed"

London, Aug. 21 The French Tenth Army, commanded by General Mangin, resumed its assault on the German Oise-Aisne front yesterday. It drove forward along a 16-mile front to a maximum depth of four miles, capturing more than 1000 Ger mans. This makes a total penetra- ton of four miles since the beginning of the new offensive Sunday night.
 A dangerous wedge has been driven into the German front between Noyon fresh success must make itself felt both on the left, where the front links up with the Picardy line, and on the right, where the Crown Princes armies between the Aisne and the Vesle are now gravely menaced in the flank. Already military predict a prompt German retirement to the Chemin- -des-Dames as an inevitable consequence.
 At the same time, signs are report cd of a German intention to fall back almost immediately to the Noyan- Nesle line. The bulk of the Teutor heavy artillery already has been re- moved out of the awkward angle jut- ting westward from Noyon, front dis, patches state.

They pushed their lines for ward to within striking distance of the vieux Berquin- -Outtersteen road, on the right of the line on which they made their successful advance yester- day when they entered Merville.

AMERICANS HAVE STRONG
 NERVES
Nervousness and Nerve Troubles on the Decline

Nothing wrong but your nerves, is saying that is fast dying out in this country. While nerve trouble is no organic disease, one of our leading nerve specialists remarked: "A man or woman might better break a leg than have a shattered nervous sys- tem.''
 Overwork and worry drains the nerve cells of their reserve strength and food, and then follows the sleep less night, indigestion, poor appetite, impure blood and general nervous break down.
 The thing to do in such cases no longer troubles doctors and their pa tients who know from their own ex- perience the value of Phosphated Iron They know that a few weeks regular use of this nerve food and red b.ood builder will strengthen and brace up the whole nervous system, because Phosphated Iron gives the tired, hungry worn-out nerve cells phosphates and iron, in a form easily and quickly absorbed! as one happy user said: You can almost feel it taking hold of the nerves and blood after a short time you feel like Q new person; life seems pleasure and worth living once again. In every section where Phosphated Iron has been used there has been a big decrease of nerve troubles and l it will prove a welcome relief to anS sufferer. You Ean bank on it for l results-it's pure.
 To insure physicians and their pa
 tients getting the genuine Phosphated
 Iron we have put up in capsules only 1 do not take pills or tA olets. Insist | on capsules.
