she had worked loved, and was
happy in doing for her children, and
,vhen she started to break down they
were frantic were willing to do al
most anything to make her last years
happy and free from worry and ILL
ness. Nothing they did seemed to
help: doctors, medicines or rest gave
no results.
Finally, when all were about des-
perate with worry a neighbor induced
them to try Phosphated Iron. 1t had
worked such wonders with her old
folks. Ready to grasp at any help
they got q supply and the way their
mother improved from the start was
almost too good to believe. 1t sure
was a happy and reunited family and
you can bet they are all boosting
Phosphated Iron to the limit.
Doctors the world over will tell you
that Phosphates and Iron will build
Up and store strength and energy
against old age and nervous break
downs. One of our leading physicians
says, 1.-THE results have obtained
with Phosphated Iron have been great
in cases Of old people where 1t was
necessary to build up strength, revive
bodily functions, give them life, re-
newed youth and health"
There must be something to it..
Doctor and druggists all tell the
same story Of success.
Special Noticc-To insure physicians
and their patients getting the genuine
Phosphated Iron. it is put up in cap
suleS only. DO not allow dealers TO
give you pills or tablets, insist on cap

ADVANCE SHOWN BY
RETAIL KNIT GOODS
Consequent Demand OH
Wholesalers Emphasizes
Acute Shortage

Retail trade in knit goods and allied
lines through this section of the coun-
try is reported as unusually heavy in
the last two weeks. In many sections
IT has reached the proportions of the
Christmas holidays.
The increase apparently has been
general in all lines. but with decided
emphasis on lines popular with the
working classes.
The result OF course. has been a big
increase in the demand made on the
wholesale market, with little chance,
save here and there. Of meeting it, Vr-
tually nothing OF consequence has been
offered to the wholesale trade by the
mills in either underwear or hosiery,
and the few limited offers have peen
marked by sharp advances
One manufacturer Of misses hosiery,
whose normal capacity is 600 dozen a
day reports that for some time past
he has not been able to bring his output
above 400 dozen, labor scarcity and
needle scarcity being the principal fac
tors IN limiting production.
Fine silk hosiery has advanced to
the wholesale trade about $50 gener-
ally in the last week, and the market is
in such an unsettled state that most of
the manufacturers are refusing to give
quotations.
rnere Is a pronounced scarcity of blue
chambray shirts. Lines which former
ly sold to the wholesale trade for 1915
today are being snapped up at from sll
to S12. Goods of this character which
used to be jobbed at S+.25 are placed
today at a market of $3.50, though II
was possible until yesterday to obtain
certain lines at slO5O. II is not be-
lieved that there will be any in sight
within a year Government demand, lit
would appear, is virtually eliminating
production for civilian wear
