Why l Believe
in ,Nuxated Iron
A Strength-Builder for the Nation
BY Z. SAUER, NJ. ID.

Probably no remedy has ever met
with such phenomenal success as has
Nuxated Iron. 1t is conservatively es-
timated that over three million people
annually are taking 1t in this country
alone. 1t has been highly endorsed
and used by former United States Sen
ators and Members of Congress;
Physicians who have been connected
with well-known hospitals have pre-
scribed and recommended it; Mon
seigneur Narinini, a prominent Cath
olic Clergyman, recommends II to all
members of the Catholic Church.
Former Health Commissioner VIM. r.
Kerr, of Chicago, says 1t ought to be
used in every hospital and prescribed
by every physician. Sarah Bernhardt-
"the Divine Sarah" the worlds most
noted actress, has orderd a large
quantity sent to the French soldiers
to help give them strength. power and
endurance.
DIR. A. ]. Newman. late Police Sur
geon of the City of Chicago. and for
mer House Surgeon Jefferson Park
Hospital, Chicago, says Nuxated Iron
has proven through his own tests of
it to excel any preparation he has
building up the nerves, Strengthening
the muscles and correcting digestive
disorders.
DR.. H. B. Vail, formerly Physician
in the Baltimore Hospital and a Medi-
cal Examiner, says that time and
again he has prescribed Nuxated Iron
and surprised patients at the rapidity
with which the weakness and general
debility were replaced by a renewed
feeling of strength and vitality.
If you are not strong or well, you
owe it to yourself to make the follow
ing test: See how long you can work
or how far you can WALK without be-
coming tired. Next take two five
grain tablets of Nuxated Iron three
times per day after meals for two
weeks Then test your strength again
and see how much you have gained.
NOTE--Nuxated Iron, which has been used by
former Members Of the United States Senate
and House Of Representatives, and other rrolni
nent people with such surprising results and
which is prescribed and recommended above by
physicians in such great variety OF cases, IS
one which is well known to druggists and whose
iron constituents are widely Prescribed by emf
nent physicians everywhere. Unlike the older
inorganic iron products, it is easily sssiuilsted,
does not injure the teeth make them black nor
upset the stomach On the contrary it is a most
as well as for nervous rundown conditions.
The manufacturers have such great confidence
in NuGatCd Iron, that they offer NtO forfeit
Sle0 to any charitable institution il tlSy cannot
take any man or woman under GO Who lacks
iron and increase their strength 100 per cent
have no serious organic trouble. They also
offer to refund your money if 1t does not at
least double your strength and endurance IN
ten days time. II is dispensed BY James

STORMCAUSES
LOSS OF FOUR
new U. S. SHIPS
Shipping Board Tells Of Dis
.asters IN Waters Of St.
Lawrence. I

Four vessels Of the Shipping
Board fleet. being brought from the
Great Lakes to the Atianticesea-
board, were lost in the terrific st.
Lawrence storm, it was announcer
last night by the Shipping Board.
The vessels were the Cedorus and
the C. N. Orr. now ashore east Of
Quebec; the Saranac. ashore near
Halifax; and the Tuscarora, which
disappeared somewhere on the
voyage. The saranac was blown
ashore in the gale that followed
the Halifax explosion.
An English ship. the Edmonton,
which accompanied a feet Of seven
of the American vessels. was abon-
doned by it's crew in the Gulf OF
st. Lawrence and afterwards was
towed into port by the United
States navy tug senoma.
a Vessels Brought Ont.
Forty-four vessels have been
brought out by the Shipping Board,
Edward NJ. HUXLEY, the chairman,
announced. Some lost theE an
chors in the severe weather; others
damaged their rudders and q small
feet of tugs and steamers Is held
at Quebec on account Of the gales
and ice storms. But all OF them
are now at New York. Boston, Hait-
fax or Sydney and vicinity. practi-
cally all ready to proceed. In ad-
dition two CanadiaR steamers have
been chartered and brought out by
the Canadian government for the
United States.
Up to date twenty-one lake
steamers and twenty-seven new
ones have been moved out through
the St. Lawrence gateway. or the
new vessels all but two were built
to fit the canal locks and were
brought out whole. Two. the Sioux
Aharris and Snaa, built by the
Great Lakes Engineering Works,
were cut in two and Joined again
at Montreal. These are $500 tons
dead weight capacity. OF the old
ships five were small enough to mt
the locks and sixteen had to be cut
in two.
MANY OF the ships that left Quebec
on December and g. said Chair
man Hurley in a statement, "encoun-
tered very severe gales on the st.
Lawrence, and two of them, the Cod
orus and G. H. Orr, were grounded
and are now on the beach, and one
Of them, the Tuscarors, has never
been heard from. There is nothing
SO far known to indicate that any
of the ships failed in any, way even
In the severe weather they encoun-
tered. As far as known. no Amer
lean crew abandoned its ship"
Navy Tugs stuck.
The Navy Department placed con-
tracts for two navy tugs, to be de-
livered at Buffalo before close of
navigation. The navy attempted to
take the boats to the ocean. but was
unable to get them further than
Montreal ~ .
Tho Shipping Board" says the
statement, decided very late in the
year October - to prepare ten tugs
for use on the Atlantic and to bring
them out this fall These tugs were
used at Montreal IN pulling the last
of the new ships through the ice in
the new vessels would have had the
greatest difficulty in getting to Mont
real.
THE four which reached Quebec
have been held there because OF the
unusually severe weather, which has
made it unwise to take such small
vessels, with limited coal capacity,
out Of the river until spring"

proper balance between the rights
This plan was favorably re-
ceived by the sugar refining in
dussry. which had been on a war
basis almost from the beginning
Of the European War.
The war had brought the Allies
into the Cuban market. resulting
in severe domestic and interna-
tional competition with no in
creased supplies. Naturally
prices Of refined sugar. both to
the American public and to the
Allies, rose under this forced draft
Domestic sugar refiners, since
the outbreak Of the European War
not only have safesuarded the
United States supply but have
maintained the lowest sugar prices
III utC WOIIu.
This brilliant record is due
largely to the fact that sugar re-
fininS is in the hands Of large
business units, with an excess Of
refining capacity sufficient to sup
ply all domestic needs, and 50 far
all demands Of foreign countries.
In the spring of 1917 there was
q serious attempt at the disor-
sanization Of the sugar refining
industry, following a long series
Of attempts at destruction Of sugar
ships. +
Accompanying these incidents
were widely Circulated sensa-
tional reports predicting a sugar
famine and sugar shortage, caus-
Ing widespread apprehension.
At that time, evenwith the assur-
ance Of ample supplies on hand.
retail sugar prices rose in some
sections to 2oand Is cents a pound.
The efforts of the American
Sugar Refining Company to aliay
public alarm. to check boarding.
to accept a price less than that
which It could easily have Sc
cured, and to distribute its prod
uct fairly and evenly among the
trade. were Of real public service.
While there were sreat supplies
Of sugar in far-away Java which
ordinarily would have zone to
Europe, yet the necessity for saw
ing ships became 50 great that
Europe turned to Cuba for even
larger supplies than previously.
II takes a cargo ship $50 days to
make q round trip between Eng
land and Java, while round trip
between England and Cuba cal,
be made in 50 days.
Under these circumstances
and seemingly to avoid payins
proposed United States war taxes
on refined sugar the European
Allies purchased in Cuba the
sugar which ordinarily would
have come TO the United States
IN the fall months. -.
These conditions, and especial
ly the necessity Of saving ships,
In war time and at all times II is
OF the public we serve.
The Washington herald., 1918-01-16


# producers and consumers"
led the United States and the
Allied Nations to urge upon the
sugar industry the adoption by
voluntary agreement Of the
original Hoover plan. under the
authority Of the Food Control
Act passed August 10. 1917.
The eane-susar refiners and the
beet-susar producers unanimously
agreed to the Hoover plan as a
patriotic act in the interest Of the
American people and as an aid to
the Allies.
This is the significance Of the
appointment by the United States
Food Administration of the Inter
national Sugar Committee to
which the Allies send representa-
tives for England. France. italy
and Canada. and to which the
United States contributes three
members. ... -
Upon the success Of the opera
ton Of the International Sugar
Committee under the directions Of
the Allied Governments, acting
for practically half the civilized
world, will depend the readiust-
ment Of the worlds sugar markets.
This plan is full Of promise to
all the nations party to the con-
vention.
Il is an assurance that sugar,
although comparatively cheap
in view Of war conditions, will not
by, reason either Of competitive
or speculative activity be in
creased in wholesale price.
Sugar will become stabilized in
price with sufficient profit to pro-
ducers, refiners and merchants to
maintain and stimulate produc-
ton and to cover the cost Of re-
filming and Of distribution.
The marketing Of Domino Cane
Sugars in cartons and small cotton
bags BY this Company has helped
amazingly during the pinch Of
the fall months in giving a wide
distribution among the retailers
Of the reduced sugar supplies.
While a barrel formerly was the
unit Of the Grocer the same amount
Of sugar put up in cartons and
small cotton bags can now be d.
vided between two or more Sfocers
and 50 serve a larger number Of
people and prevent boarding.
It will be necessary for srocers
and consumers to watch carefully
their distribution and purchases
during the approaching period Of
readiustment. The refineries are
now starting up and supplies Of
raw sugar coming forward. but It
will take weeks, and possibly
months, for the return Of normal
= conditions. -.
Housewives can aid in conserv-
ing the sugar supply by buying
these package sugars. -. =
