blood is the unfailing barometer OF
the strength and health of the body
The practical lesson, they tell Us,
to be drawn from these facts and one
that is of benefit to the public at large
is that weak blood is very common
condition, and that physical and
nervous weakness are danger sig
mails which must be promptly correct
ed in order to avoid permanent in

They advise the public not to take
chances, bat if the nerves and mus
cles are not as strong as they should
be, if one feels weak, languid, blue
and discouraged, or if the food does
not digest properly or give natural
strength, no time should be lost in
supplying the blood with the
Strengthening element found in Iro-

the nerves will gradually become
steady and the physical strength and
power of endurance and the natural
flesh will return, until one looks and
feels physically fit.
Warning is given, however, that

within the next few months in order
that no wounded soldier or sailor may
lack for anything that skilled nurses
can contribute to his recovery or re-
storation to the fighting line.
When this army of nurses is in
military uniform, every remaining
private nurse, hospital nurse, and
public health nurse will be needed to
help the sick in many places. At the
same time the only way to assure that
those very sick or recovering from
surgical operation shall have essential
nursing is for the public to help each
nurse to serve several patients at a
